The other day I was at birthday party for a old family friend (he’s 98)

There were a bunch of people which I never met before. I normally keep pretty quite since that’s basically my default option.

Or at least it was until someone asked about AI. I’m not really sure how it happened but I got distracted from masking and immediately started talking loud and fast. I had to be interrupted because I was infodumping so quickly.

Right after I snapped back into masking and was dead quiet. I haven’t had this happen in a very long time. The person who asked about AI looked a mix of both startled and amused.
