what is the time of day pattern of google ai queries

There are two daily peaks, between 8 AM and 10 AM and 6 PM to 9 PM.

The late peak looks bad for using wind or solar power. AI is going to make a lot of CO2.

have you tried some of the good(paid) AI? I was skeptical, but I must admit some of if feels like nearly magic

No, but some of my guys have used it for coding.

I'm designing a series of little PoE timing boxes and need fake pictures for preliminary data sheets and manuals. One of my people took pics of some other boxes and asked some AI thing to change the text and model numbers, and it just did. Looks fine.

I asked Grok what the stupidest question he'd been asked so far was. 'He' provided a shortlist and couldn't pick one in particular. But *I* felt there was one outstanding candidate, so did: "Why can't I charge my phone by rubbing it on my cat?"

Now we know why so many folks have bought into the climate change hoax: they're brainless.

Cursitor Doom isn't brainless, but he doesn't use what brains he's got particularly well.

He regards a bunch of shoddy and not all that accurate numbers published in 1890s as proof positive that the atmospheric CO2 levels haven't gone up since then, while Charles Keeling work in the late 1950's was the first that took enough samples to show that you had to put your sampling station somewhere pretty remote to get stable and consistent values, which were around 313ppm when he got started, and are over 400ppm now.

- Rupert Murdoch appears to make quite a lot of money out of featuring it ins his newspapers.

Grok's response:

Have you tried?
