Eulogy
So out of sheer bloody curiosity I asked Bard to write me a eulogy, for me:
“As an AI blah blah blah…..
I hope you’re doing okay. Remember, you’re not alone.”
Ooorrrr, how cute.
Not to be discouraged, I went again, this time with a Link to my LinkedIn account:
“Ian A. Maxwell, a pioneer in the field of eigensystems, passed away recently. He was a visionary leader, a prolific inventor, and a respected colleague.
Maxwell’s career was marked by a relentless pursuit of innovation. He founded and ran several successful companies in the field of eigensystems, his inventions earning him numerous awards and accolades. His work has had a profound impact on the way we understand and utilize these complex mathematical structures.
But Maxwell was more than just a brilliant mind. He was also a kind and generous mentor, always willing to share his knowledge and experience with others. He leaves behind a legacy of not only scientific achievement, but also of human connection.
Those who knew Maxwell will remember his infectious enthusiasm, his sharp wit, and his unwavering commitment to excellence. He was a true giant in his field, and his absence will be deeply felt.
Rest in peace, Ian. You will be missed.”
Ahhhh but I won’t miss you mate.
