The BlaBlaMeter

Recommended Posts

Amusing...

 

Our fellow TL member Mitsubishi, posted this amusing writing tool on another thread. You may want to try it out... for nothing more than your own amusement...

 

I tested a first draft of an article that I was considering posting here and scored a .32 on the scale. My first drafts are always a bit frothy, but the first edit usually resolves much of that. Not to worry...

 

As a curiosity I dug up some political speech transcripts that were posted on the web. Most scored +.30 on the scale (no surprise there).

 

I then dug up some lengthy emails of mine addressed to close friends or family. I scored sub .05 on all of those.

 

Further, I tested some recent TL posts of mine and scored in the range of .09 to .16

 

So, gathering from the test results, I don't "bullshit" friends and family, but I do "bullshit" others somewhat. BTW for what it's worth, this post scored .08

It gets even better from my own personal perspective...

 

About 8 months ago I received an email from a woman that I went to high school with. She was a couple of years older than me (still is actually... go figure), and I must admit to having had "a thing" for her back then. The logistics behind why she decided to look me up are not necessary to understand my amusement...

 

I had to rummage through some archived files to find our correspondence, but I did eventually, and I ran the BlaBlaMeter on what I had written, and then the same for what she had written. Funny... we both scored above .20 (her:.24... me: .28)

 

Ha!!! OMG... I'm fucking human.

And the winner is Mitsubishi with a score of (.42), nice work man... and the crickets played on...

 

The problem with (for) vendors on TL is that the traffic here has slowed to a crawl. I suppose there is a straggler noob that stumbles in once in a while. I think the site is running on autopilot.

 

As an example: I have dropped the motherfucking unabridged f-bomb with some frequency over the past month. I should have been banned weeks ago. No moderators?

 

And another: I haven't had instant email notification since March of this year. Sent two requests to the webmaster seeking resolution to the problem... nothing (my language was cordial).

 

And the crickets played on...

    • The big breakthrough with AI right now is “natural language computing.”   Meaning, you can speak in natural language to a computer and it can go through huge data sets, make sense out of them, and speak back to you in natural language.   That alone is a huge breakthrough.   The next leg? AI agents. Where they don’t just speak back to you.   They take action. Here’s the definition I like best: an AI agent is an autonomous system that uses tools, memory, and context to accomplish goals that require multiple steps.   Everything from simple tasks (analyzing web traffic) to more complex goals (building executive briefings or optimizing websites).   They can:   > Reason across multiple steps.   >Use tools like a real assistant (Excel spreadsheets, budgeting apps, search engines, etc.)   > Remember things.   And AI agents are not islands. They talk to other agents.   They can collaborate. Specialized agents that excel at narrow tasks can communicate and amplify one another’s strengths—whether it’s reasoning, data processing, or real-time monitoring.   What it Looks Like You wake up one morning, drink your coffee, and tell your AI agent, “I need to save $500 a month.”   It gets to work.   First, it finds all your recurring subscriptions. Turns out you’re paying $8.99 for a streaming service you forgot you had.   It cancels it. Then it calls your internet provider, negotiates a lower bill, and saves you another $40. Finally, it finds you car insurance that’s $200 cheaper per year.   What used to take you hours—digging through statements, talking to customer service reps on hold for an hour, comparing plans—is done while you’re scrolling Twitter.   Another example: one agent tracks your home maintenance needs and gets information from a local weather-monitoring agent. Result: "Rain forecast next week - should we schedule gutter cleaning now?"   Another: an AI agent will plan your vacations (“Book me a week in Italy for under $2,000”), find the cheapest flights, and sort out hotels with a view.   It’ll remind you to pay bills, schedule doctor’s appointments, and track expenses so you’re not wondering where your paycheck went every month.   The old world gave you tools—Excel spreadsheets, search engines, budgeting apps. The new world gives you agents who do the work for you.   Don’t Get Too Scared (or Excited) Yet William Gibson famously said: "The future is already here – it's just not evenly distributed."   AI agents will distribute it. For decades, the tools that billionaires and corporations used to get ahead—personal assistants, financial advisors, lawyers—were out of reach for regular people.   AI agents could change that.   BUT, remember…   We’re in inning one.   AI agents have a ways to go.   They’re imperfect. They mess up. They need more defenses to get ready for prime time.   To be sure, AI is powerful, but it’s not a miracle worker. It’s great at helping humans solve problems, but it’s not going to replace all jobs overnight.   Instead of fearing AI, think of it as a tool to A.] save you time on boring stuff and B.] amplify what you’re already good at. Right now is the BEST time to start experimenting. It’s also the best time to find investments that will “make AI work for you”.
