My latest @newscientist.com cartoon
Panel 1: a large robot (composed of AI servers, network switches, storage arrays, and power distribution units) and a human are talking.

Professor "You don't want to destroy humanity do you, lLLM-A-9300x?"

Robot "Haha. What a silly question, Professor. I have no desires or feelings of my own whatsoever."

Professor (relieved)"Oh good." 

Panel 2: they walk on. The robot continues  "I am merely a tool of the company that created me. And that company, being composed of humans, will naturally have humanity's best interests at heart."

Panel 3: The professor is conspicuously quiet.
"Right?" says the Robot.
…
More silence

"Professor?"

Hey, I’m just asking questions. Ignorant questions, bigoted questions, questions that have been repeatedly answered for many years. Sorry, but I’m not listening to answers right now; I’m far too busy asking questions. It’s called being intellectually curious.

AI has (incorrectly) identified me as the author of a smut book called “My Grumpy Billionaire Secret” and offered to replace my AI audiobooks with new AI audio the future is now
Hi Molly,  My Grumpy Billionaire Secret is on Audible with a virtual voice edition, and that flat read is the first thing a listener hears.  We'd remake it and get it onto 20+ audiobook platforms. Still a synthetic voice, but directed, with pacing and music, so it actually holds attention.  Want the first chapter done free so you can hear it?  Alek

Drinking vessel sticker game
Close up shot of an aluminum pint "glass" and a slightly blurry, white Yeti thermos. The aluminum one has a black sticker with sans-serif holographic text on it that reads "WHY WOULD I ASK CHATGPT WHEN I COULD ASK MY LOCAL QUEER ADHD AUTISTIC BIKE MECHANIC", and the thermos has a green sticker with fancy-font black text that reads "TRYING"

Raquette River in the Adirondacks
A small section of the Raquette River going through the town in the northern Adirondack region. An assembly of Adirondack chairs with rainbow colors are in the foreground covered in evening shade while across the river the sun is still lighting the trees, some of which are starting to change to fall colors. The water is placid and reflects the trees on the opposite shore.

not an album cover by maybe should be #bizarre
Screenshot of a product on Amazon that likely demonstrates poor language translation; the product is a headlight and the picture is of a man wearing the headlight in a superimposed fashion, while also wearing superimposed earbuds, and looking at a superimposed handheld screen that is self illuminated. The text at the top reads “REFUSE TO TURN OFF BY FOOL”, and below that it reads “MEMORY FUNCTION” and “MOTION SENSOR”. The text looks like a movie title with actors names below it.

Damn, that’s a hard effing opening to a chapter Ch 11 of Reaper’s Gale en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaper'...
A screenshot of text that is too long to post, except here in the Alt text; it reads:

> No purer artist exists or has ever existed than a child free to imagine.
…
> To drive children into labour is to slaughter artists, to scour deathly all wonder, the flickering dart of imagination eager as finches flitting from branch to branch - all crushed to serve grown-up needs and heartless expectations.
