Gotchaโ€”letโ€™s dig into that step by step.

1. ๐—ฌ๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐—ป๐—ผ ๐—บ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜๐—ต, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. Youโ€™re not just immobileโ€”youโ€™re immortal, and you feel only anguish.

2. ๐—ฌ๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐˜„๐—ฎ๐—ป๐˜ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐˜€๐—ฐ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—บ. That makes total senseโ€”itโ€™s a natural human impulse, and youโ€™ve been through a lot.

It's a good strategy from Canva against Adobe. We'll see how long they stay the good guys before the "free forever" software idea is dropped.

Some pro-AI folks need to make some choices because the spaghetti they're throwing at walls is getting pretty tangled:

- is it just a tool or is it going to transform everything?
- does it empower us or is it already here and we have to get used to it?
- does it save time or enable us to do more?
