Mmm AI. Not to be confused with A.I. which is what Marge calls Artificial Insemination. Anyway Advanced Micro Devices those brainy folks who make computer chips have made a deal with Meta the company that owns Facebook – you know the place where people argue about whether or not Comic Book Guy's prices are fair.

Whirlpool's Stock Goes Down the Drain

Whirlpool the people who make washing machines that spin your clothes until you’re dizzy. It seems investors aren’t too thrilled with them.

Now that's innovation.
