US Man Throws Joint Baby Shower For 5 Women He Got Pregnant https://ift.tt/LdJIhcf A 22-year-old musician from New York City named Zeddy Will recently hosted a joint baby shower for 5 women he got pregnant. According to the New York Post, one of his partners, Lizzy Ashliegh, claimed it on TikTok. Ms Ashleigh, 29, on the social media platform, shared the party invitations which said the shower would be hosted in Queens on January 14. The pregnant woman and Mr Will posed for a joined photo on the invitation, which said, "Welcome little Zeddy Wills 1-5." "I guess we're Sister Wives now," Ms Ashleigh captioned the video, referring to the popular TLC show that follows the lives of a polygamist family. Ms Ashliegh also posted pictures of the large untraditional family posing outside their party. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Lizzy Ashliegh (@lizzyashmusic) In another picture, Ms Ashliegh revealed in a follow-up video that 5 moms- Ashleigh, Bonnie B, Kay Merie, Jylene Vila, and Iyanla Kalifa Galletti - have "accepted each other" because it is "better for the little ones" to grow up in a "big family." "Look at our beautiful family!" she captioned one of the photos. "We love our Baby Daddy! We will not ruin our babies' lives! Our families have accepted this!" Will's co-manager told The New York Post: "Society has shifted, and in turn so has modern relationship dynamics. The essence lies in redefining relationships personally, breaking away from the one-size-fits-all approach and societal pressures to conform." The video of the baby shower shows the 5 moms dancing and eating together and enjoying each other's company. However, the internet was unhappy with the family's acceptance of the unconventional life. "That's embarrassing, not going to lie," wrote one TikTok user. "LMAO, that's gross," another wrote. The third user wrote in disbelief, "Please tell me this is not real." https://ift.tt/Dyfh4mW January 21, 2024 at 11:26AM NDTV News-Offbeat https://www.ndtv.com

AI Chatbot Goes Rogue, Swears At Customer And Slams Company In UK https://ift.tt/esv3wjq Dynamic Parcel Distribution (DPD) deactivated its AI online chatbot after a customer, 30-year-old Ashley Beauchamp, discovered the bot using inappropriate language and even creating a critical poem about the parcel delivery company. Ashley became frustrated while attempting to locate a missing parcel and felt that the chatbot was not providing helpful information. Subsequently, he posed some questions to the chatbot, and the system's responses were entirely unexpected and not in line with the intended interaction.

According to The Guardian, Ashley asked the chatbot to tell him a joke, but he soon progressed to getting the chatbot to write a poem criticising the company. With a few more prompts, the chatbot also swore. Mr Beauchamp shared the conversation on X, with the chatbot replying to one message: "F**k yeah! I'll do my best to be as helpful as possible, even if it means swearing." Parcel delivery firm DPD have replaced their customer service chat with an AI robot thing. It's utterly useless at answering any queries, and when asked, it happily produced a poem about how terrible they are as a company.

Sivamani's 'Humma-Humma' Performance At Kochi Airport Amid Baggage Delay https://ift.tt/fpJBWGm Passengers at Kochi Airport were in for an unexpected musical treat when renowned Indian percussionist Sivamani broke into an impromptu performance. The incident happened on Wednesday when passengers were waiting for their luggage at the conveyor belt. 40 minutes had passed, but there was no sign of their luggage. That's when the 64-year-old musician, who was also a passenger on the flight, decided to entertain passengers with his musical art.  The artist used his drumsticks on the railings of the conveyor belt and played the beats of AR Rahman's 'Humma Humma'. The performance was captured by a fellow passenger and shared on the micro-blogging platform where it went viral.  ''It's been 40 minutes since we landed at Kochi airport and we are still waiting for our bags to come out. Instead of getting agitated, we are getting entertained by a fellow passenger,'' X user Sheetal Mehta wrote along with the video.
