At times, my job calls for flirting with Grok's AI girlfriend for 24 hours or coercing weird AI video apps to generate odd French-kissing videos. Other times, I'm making personas of myself in the Vision Pro. I also do normal things, like testing the latest smart glasses, smart rings, and smartwatches.
