Shanghai Surprise......IBM Loses the Plot and gains AI Holywood Master Pilot?

Quite obviously no one warned Ashlee about the strength of Chinese beer. You gotta get out more often, Ashlee, for that was excellent fare to share with the Deadhead Westerner stuck in the Hollywood Doldrums of MindSet and Leading Role Play to a Studio Tune . ........ Fool's Gold Productions.

Great Basis for a Film about IT Boffins and Non-State Actors taking over the Skies with their AIR&dDs and Hot CodeXXXX/Virtual EMP Barrages and Sieges....... for "Sage Sieges ... Play IT again, Sam".
