I'm just an engineer, so maybe I don't understand these things, but it seems to me the optimal way to "outage-proof" your smart bed product is to not connect it to the fucking Internet. 

But what if I want to adjust my bed's position while not at home? 

Ask the help?

They were deported. 

Oh couldn't afford white ones.

Oh couldn't afford white ones.

They got deported, too.

There are situations where it's helpful to monitor your bed while you're not home.

  Go on.

It's nothing scandalous.  For example, let's say you're feeling unwell at work and want to go home early.  You'd be wise to make sure your wife is not in your bed with her boyfriend, because you know that if you walk in on them, it'll take you a week to smooth things over with her.

Speaking of three bears...
My kids have some books I'm pretty sure are AI written and illustrated. I can't find any reporting about this though.

I recently saw mentioned in passing in an article that lots of kids' books are AI made. Refused to elaborate though.

Re: kids books, I wouldn't be surprised. If you care, I suppose the answer is to do some research and only buy books where you have a high confidence they're made by actual people.
