The MAG weekly Blog by Lydia, every Friday at 1700 hrs. Nr 101 24th May 2024

Lydia's Weekly Lifestyle blog is for today's African girl, so no subject is taboo. My purpose is to share things that may interest today's African girl.

This week's contributors: Lydia, Pépé Pépinière, this week's subjects: Embracing Efficiency in Style at Workforce, I want to marry a white, and Artificial intelligence

Embracing Efficiency in Style at Workforce: The New C-Suite Women's Clothing Revolution: In the fast-paced world of contemporary work environments, the traditional notion of power dressing for women has evolved into a fusion of style and functionality. In the realm of C-Suite fashion, where authority meets sophistication, the demand for efficiency in clothing has never been more crucial.
Efficiency Redefined: Gone are the days when power was symbolized solely through rigid, uncomfortable suits and impractical footwear.

Today's corporate landscape requires women at the top to navigate through demanding schedules and diverse responsibilities seamlessly. The new era of C-Suite women's clothing champions efficiency as a fundamental aspect of style, recognizing the need for garments that empower without compromising comfort or functionality.
Tailored Precision: At the core of this sartorial revolution lies the emphasis on tailored precision. Each piece of the modern C-Suite wardrobe is meticulously designed to enhance the wearer's silhouette while allowing for effortless movement. Structured blazers with strategic cuts and elegant pencil skirts that exude confidence without constraining create a powerful yet comfortable ensemble for the contemporary businesswoman.

I want to marry a white. That's what this 21-year-old kid said. Still a virgin, she had already figured out that anything was better than a Ghanaian. Makes you think?
Anyway, a few warnings. These guys like to sleep cold, so the AC will be blowing Bear Strength or Popeye Power and you'll always be cold, cold, cold. And in case your white man is a European, there are laws coming up there not to heat the temperature in the house, and the bedroom as well, above 19 degrees Celsius. (Ghana temperature typically is between 25 and 33 degrees Celsius). Not joking, they're trying to save the planet from climate warming but you'll still be cold.
Secondly, if he takes you there you'll be far from your family, and despite anything you're thinking now, you may miss them. But this, of course, is compensated by the warm welcome you'll get from his family, they'll show a lot of interest in you and where you come from and whether you lived in a house or in a hut or in a tree, and they'll happily conclude that you're quite smart. For an African.
Lastly (for now), behavior. In any relationship there are issues, and the Office for Domestic Violence (Domestic Violence and Victim Support Unit, DOVVSU) was created because sometimes people think that force can settle issues (20 % of complainants are men).

But Mr. Jonathan White will think twice before he puts his hands on you, a visit to the Immigration Office could easily result in his deportation (and loss of his lucrative job). But once in Europe things are different. Initially, you'll be much more dependent on him, and many a person cannot handle that “have power” situation and starts to miss-apply that power. It goes gradually, but before you know it you have to ask for permission before you can take something from the fridge, or burp.
And aggression? Just you black girl go to the local police station to lodge a complaint against a white man.
A recent study on emergency hospital cases, where all went in with the same age group and the same complaint showed that white males were taken in before white females, before black males were attended to, and those before black females. Welcome to the free world.

Artificial intelligence is really artificial. We were used to search engines
(Baidu, Google, Microsoft Bing, Yahoo, and many others, and generally the results you got were helpful.
Off late we hear a lot about Artificial Intelligence, AI. It tries to conclude what you want before you can type it, for example, 5 noisy boys entering a bar may order beer, whilst 5 girls in church dress are more likely to order pineapple juice or malta. But if it turns exactly the other way AI will learn that noisy boys drink Malta, and church dressed girls drink beer. Both are of course nonsense, and so is much of AI. The following for me was the first sign that one has to be careful: I googled “does Ghana have”, and straight away AI concluded the question, “Does Ghana have submarines”, Indeed, that's what I'd been thinking about in the last few months, and I guess you as well? Nonsense indeed. You can also notice it if you activate spelling correction, and you have to be careful that you do not start sending nonsense. Artificial Intelligence indeed.

Now WhatsApp (owned by Facebook) offers Artificial Intelligence as well, next to the usual search engines, and curiosity made me try it out. I checked on our own Della Hayes, founder and leader of Africa's first-ever private music band (2009). Whatsapp AI had lots of good to say about Della's music but admitted that they couldn’t find Della's date of birth. So during the same conversation with this Mr or Mrs AI, I asked about Della's parents, and here I got some really interesting answers, Della's parents were born in 1871 and in 1874, and Della herself was born in March 1900. This one surely is for the Guinness Book of Records, no-fail, no disqualification, Della is now 124 years old and is still regularly jumping up and down on stage.

So, Artificial Intelligence needs to be critically checked out for artificial nonsense, rather use your own intelligence. Good luck
