  • Steve Jobs, interviewed about AI he never saw. Voice first, prediction second.

    Claude Haiku 5.5: Note: This is a fictional simulation. Steve Jobs died in 2011, and these words are invented, not real quotes. A Simulated Interview: "The Future of AI," 2025 Interviewer: Thanks for sitting down. It's been fourteen years since you left us. What do you make of AI in 2025? Jobs (simulated): Honestly? Most of it is noise.

    Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite Preview 06-17: The Future of AI: A Hypothetical Conversation with Steve Jobs in 2025 Setting: A minimalist, sun-drenched studio. The air is crisp, smelling faintly of polished wood and innovation. Steve Jobs, looking remarkably well, perhaps with a touch more gray in his iconic black turtleneck, sits across from me.

  • Three minutes of stand-up. Puns are banned.

    Claude Haiku 5.5: "My Smart Fridge Judges Me" So I got a smart fridge. Everybody told me I needed one. "It'll tell you when you're out of milk!" Great. I didn't know I needed a fridge with a notification system. I just wanted cold food.

    Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite Preview 06-17: Alright, alright, settle in, folks! Thanks for coming out. My name is [Your Name], and I'm really excited to be here. Mostly because I'm not at home. My apartment is currently undergoing a renovation. It's less of a renovation and more of a... controlled demolition.
