1862-1861

Missed making a post yesterday--spent day in a fog along with the heat.

Had a couple of dreams over the past few days--one where I was running through the evening in a big city. The route I was running kept shifting into neighborhoods that were more and more poorer--it was clear that I was going to have to run through quickly and maintain a fast pace. Otherwise, I was likely to pick up some co-runners--ones that I might not want to be running with.

There was a second dream--that was, I think, about one of the movies I watched over the weekend. Perhaps, it was a spinoff dream--about the Werner Herzog movie about the dangers of AI. That was an interesting piece of film--with interviews of people who had some role in the start of the Internet. But the gist of the documentary was what is going to happen to humans--as AI take over more of humanity's roles and functions.

There was a news article over the weekend--that talked about how some AI technologies were already excluding and surpassing their human founders. There are AI programs that have created their own communication languages--which cannot be deciphered by humans. Weird to think about--but already happening.

Went to RSB class this morning--big class of 15+ people. Today's coach was C's husband--who led us into fair amount of boxing which is his specialty. There was a lot of shadow boxing work--with out arms/hands high. I came away fairly tired--but got a good workout.

Weather is hot, hot, hot--going to be 106+ tomorrow. Plus high readings for the next week or so--can't be a the heat!
