AI-Generated Obituary Grins
- A humorous look at a highly flattering obituary written for me by Google's Bard (now Gemini) AI assistant.
AI Obituary
- "For grins," in February 2024, I asked Google's Bard AI assistant in deep thinking mode to write an obituary for me.
- Not expecting to pass away anytime soon, I was actually very pleased and amused by the highly descriptive writing.
- The AI hailed me as a "Programming Luminary with Expertise in Perl and Dart," recounting my landmark books (Camel book (Programming Perl) and Llama book (Learning Perl)), my status as a Google Developer Expert for Dart and Flutter, and my co-hosting of Hosting FLOSS Weekly.
These facts are as Randal recalls them, but much time has passed for most of this. If you find a factual error, please email realmerlyn@gmail.com.
