👁️ In a world of EFT and instant gratification it is interesting to see that Amazon can ship atoms from warehouse to door an order of magnitude faster than a bank can add a deposit from another bank.

A wolf in sheep’s clothing? Or maybe the emperor has bought new clothes.
👁️ Before LLMs how many writers included paragraphs containing two sentence that follow this pattern?
That’s not imagination. That’s reality.
