1/15 On my way to JFK with one-and-a-half mistakes: First I forgot my laptop and had to ask the Uber driver to turn back from 96th and Columbus, which altogether cost maybe 20 minutes. Then he didn’t know, or refused to know, how to use Google Maps and followed none of its suggestions for better routes, which cost us another 30 minutes of total travel time, while the rush hour was locking things up. I had to ask AI for its idea of whether I could make my flight at all. I could, and I did.
