AI Analysis

The title of this 'Dilbert' comic strip is "Upgrading Computers". The comic strip shows a conversation between an office worker and her boss. The worker asks why she never has time to eat, but the men in the office are always present at 11:35. The boss explains that the hours spent upgrading their computers have paid off by greatly improving their efficiency. The worker then reveals that they can't reveal all their secrets, implying that the upgraded computers are being used for nefarious purposes. The comic strip is humorous and satirical, poking fun at the idea that technology can improve productivity, but also create new problems. It also highlights the stereotype that men are more efficient than women, and that they are often the ones who get to enjoy the benefits of new technology.
