No Amount Of AI Tech Is Able To Impress Man As Much As Magic ‘Sipahh Straw’ Technology Did

A local man is yet to encounter a brand new innovation in the world of AI that has been able to get even close to impressing him as much as those ‘Sipahh Straws’ did when they first came out.

“Yeah yeah a self-learning semi conscious piece of technology is cool and all, but those Sipahh Straws literally turned water to wine… well, milk to strawberry milk, which is pretty similar” explained Hank Merchant (32).

Despite being bombarded with breakthroughs in generative art, neural networks and real-time voice translation, Hank remains unconvinced.

“I mean, ChatGPT can write a screenplay in 30 seconds, but can it make a boring cup of milk taste like a banana milkshake?” he asked rhetorically.

Hank, who works in IT and technically understands how AI works, says he just doesn’t feel anything when using it.

“Where’s the magic? Where’s that childlike sense of curiosity that comes from interacting with a brand new invention?”

He fondly recalls the euphoric era when Sipahh Straws first hit the market.

“I didn’t believe what it was claiming when I first tried it, but after that first sip… everything changed”

He admits AI is “probably going to change the world or whatever,” but argues it lacks charm.

For Hank, no algorithm, no matter how advanced, will ever match the thrill of that artificially flavoured first sip from a Sipahh Straw.
