Adam Doud @deadtechnology.bsky.social · 11/01/2025AI bots were developed because some rich, lazy a-hole wanted normal people to be able to feel like rich, lazy a-holes, because at the end of the day, if we could choose to be rich, lazy a-holes, most of us would. And that's why AI exists. Thanks for coming to my TED talk. 120
Adam Doud @deadtechnology.bsky.social · 11/01/2025This is why AI bots have always confounded me. I don't NEED a bot to write an email for me. I do it quite well myself. But some people don't have that skill, and that's why AI bots were developed. I don't know why it took me this long to realize it. 100
Adam Doud @deadtechnology.bsky.social · 11/01/2025So, I'm watching the scene in a TV show where this guy is talking to his assistant, asking her to send a gift with a card. "Something affectionate," he says. "No, something polite" and it hit me. Writing is not hard - arguably it's easier for me, a writer, than some, but it's not hard. 100
Adam Doud @deadtechnology.bsky.social · 11/12/2024I'm going to start carrying a flask with me to all of my press events (in person and virtual) so I can take a shot every time someone one stage says "work...AND play." I figure my liver will give out around mid-March. 010

Adam Doud @deadtechnology.bsky.social · 28/11/2024PSA: If you're looking for a movie to watch and flipping through all the streaming services, don't forget about YouTube.

Adam Doud @deadtechnology.bsky.social · 26/11/2024The hardest part to grasp about AI is the absolute disparity between the highs and lows.

Reposted by Adam DoudChris Davies @cdavies.bsky.social · 13/11/2024The not-so-secret reality of even pre-Elon Twitter was that it was godawful for clicks. Writers/editors didn't post stories there for readers, they did it to show their industry peers (and maybe subtly flaunt that they'd published first). Even "viral" posts were generally dire for actual traffic. 2185
