A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

The entire showerthought must be in the title

I think AI works well as an assistant for creative problems. But businesses are shoving large language models on everything they can think of. It's basically a fad.
