5. I can’t do this if I am getting a couple of these emails a day — and there’s no reason I should spend my time reading someone’s paper and writing back if they couldn’t be bothered to spend their own time writing the email they sent to me in the first place.

1. Recently I’ve received lots of emails from people I don’t know personally, asking for my feedback on their books or papers. They explain the connection between my work and theirs and ask me to take a look. The catch, of course, is that the emails are transparently, obviously, written by AI.

Here's the serious bit for anyone who'd rather skip the 4000 words of jokes

Because the truth is, tech doesn't have an image problem. It doesn't have a message problem. It has an intention problem. What's wrong with the axe murderer who broke into my house is not that he hasn't successfully persuaded me to buy into his narrative. What's wrong is that he's trying to kill me with an axe. Similarly, when you launch a product that's designed to put millions of people out of work, block access to sources of verifiable truth, replace human creativity with slop, and lower the barriers to every sort of atrocity, the problem isn't that you haven't told the public a good story about those things. The problem is that you are trying to do them. (
There are things in the world that are more important than money. The fact that you seem not to believe this, that you seem to think any motive beyond ruthless acquisitiveness is fake, dishonest, or childish, is the heart of your problem. Your attitude is not by any means unique to tech, but the

The scientists leading the ABCD Study decided not to tell participants that their data had been misused for race research.

Parents and their children — who are now adults nearing the end of the decade-long study — reacted with surprise and dismay when The Times told them what had happened. They said they deserved to learn about it from the study’s organizers.

Scientists said they chose not to inform the families because they believed doing so could cause more harm than good.

An issue we're seeing at all levels of university is that many students are simply refusing to do *anything*. They aren't reading the syllabus, aren't following assignment guidelines, aren't engaging with material, ignoring deadlines. And this might seem like old news, but it truly has ramped up.

I love the idea of a Social 5-a-Day! Considering ideal social connection like we consider ideal vegetable intake. Relationships are a strong predictor of health & longevity, so we should focus on meaningful interactions, too. In this remote work, online dating, and food delivery era, we need this!

Screenshot of LinkedIn post that reads:

"Have you had your social five-a-day?

Like vegetables and greens, social connection is vital for our health and longevity. And, just like vegetables, we aren't hardwired to seek it out: because connection, like greens, used to be everywhere.

Make sure you connect with at least five people today in a meaningful way."
