kmikeym··on Connected Claude to a 1983 oscilloscope [video]
I have an openclaw install on an old Mac Mini and realized i wasn't using the audio out, so I ran it through a Macrosilicon capture card into a Hitachi V-1100A oscilloscope (100MHz, circa 1983 i think?) and told Claude to emit different sounds based on what actions it was taking.

Kind of dumb, but pretty fun.

it's awful for us as consumers but it's AWESOME for corporate clients! imagine if workers used a plexure like service to demand higher wages during rush times or if someone called in sick? that would be amazing.

I think it's hard for us as individuals to understand the scale of McDonald's. They claim that 1 in 8 people in America have worked at McDonald's... that's... INSANE!

It's not new. McD acquired 'Dynamic Yield' back in 2019 and has long been using big data. There is an case study from 2020 about it called "McDonald's: Can A Behemoth Lead in the Era of Artificial Intelligence?" by Fabrizio DiMuro of the University of Winnipeg.
