Posted a video and some photos I took of the humpback whale that's currently hanging out in Pillar Point Harbor near Half Moon Bay, California - their name is Teresa T simonwillison.net/2024/Sep/8/t

@simon Since the whale doesn’t know its name, this is not really a fact about a whale at all, but rather about human culture and language use. Search and therefore the AI bot seem pretty well connected to new memes.

@simon do you think it picked up on the “ai assistant” direction or the title and copy?

@kpk my guess is that the AI assistant copy was entirely unnecessary, I mainly added that as a joke

… and I just heard the whale has left the harbor as of last night! Good job Teresa T!
