Isn't the priority of a major airport to move people?  Why haven't they redirected or reduced cargo planes at Newark if there is such a problem there?  It shouldn't matter if Fedex or UPS have major contracts.  In a state of emergency as it seems Newark Airport is in, shouldn't the FAA step in and at least try to relieve some of the air traffic?  Oh boo hoo, we get our packages a day or two later because Fedex flights are redirected to JFK, LaGuardia or Philly...

Some AI estimates for May:

Final April numbers will be posted tomorrow.

Mid-month update on the AI idea:

It's still too early to be sure about the extent of skill or lack of skill involved in the forecasting realm.

In another area, AI continues to progress. It is now able to turn photos of flowers into works approaching fine art. Two examples are below from processed photos taken at the New York Botanical Garden this spring. True photo editing does not yet exist, but could be about a year away. OpenAI is working on it, at present. Other AI companies are likely pursuing similar avenues. Should AI develop true photo editing capabilities that are easy to use, that development could disrupt the market for processing software (Topaz, Photoshop, Paintshop Pro, etc.).
