How much glue should be in your pizza? (also the Zoom board meeting is today!)
I acknowledge that these two sentences, put together are a little strange
Happy Friday! A new one for you, a sort of follow-on to our last episode.
An internet breaking news story: as we told you last week, Google has begun offering AI-generated answers to search questions. But some answers, it turns out, are strange. Users were told, for instance, that glue was an appropriate ingredient for homemade pizza. We talk to reporter Katie Notopolous, who baked and ate her own homemade glue pizza.
The Board Meeting is today, The Board Meeting is today! 1PM eastern!!
If you’re an Incognito Mode subscriber, you should now have a link to the Zoom meeting today in your inbox. If you don’t see it, check your promotions tab, Google tends to stuff our subscriber emails there.
If you were planning to sign up at the very last minute, you are, technically speaking, a little too late. But, if you sign up before… let’s say noon, and shoot me an email at pjvogt85@gmail.com, I’ll try to get you an invite by hand. No promises! But I will make a valiant effort.
As always, sign up for Incognito Mode here.

Okay, keeping this email short because we’ve got spreadsheets and slides to run through. Looking forward to seeing all your faces.

I hear in order to make the sauce stick harder, one can use a teaspoon of superglue instead :p
I love the music in this episode!
