They quoted me in this New Yorker piece about AI today. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

“Let’s say there’s a world or time line I exist in where A.I. has been subject to regulation. It is ethical. It has no footprint environmentally,” the novelist Jeff VanderMeer, a prominent critic of A.I., told me over the phone. “With those guardrails in place, would I read an A.I. book? All I can say is no. And the reason is, in part, because I want to read something coming from a particular mind.” Using A.I., he said, “feels like a betrayal of the whole point of why you’re a writer.”

this is what Twitter used to be like all the time. “Ice Cube’s son admits he might have a race play thing going on” is some pure, vintage ‘09-‘10 style posting

You can always tell when a Republican gets a new billionaire sponsor who has a single, very, very specific issue they would like the American people to hear about.

The image is a tweet from Sen. Tommy Tuberville that reads: "Democrats are the party of Radical Islam, illegal aliens, and furry pilots. Lord help us."

if you don't know your own address it's because you specifically don't have to know it. people that detached from reality shouldn't be in a position to drive social policy for those of us living in reality
