HEDY LAMARR escaped from her Nazi husband by disguising herself as her own maid, became a top actress in Hollywood, then co-developed a radio guidance system for Allied torpedoes - the principles of which are incorporated into today’s Bluetooth and GPS technology. Helluva lady.

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.”

Night. The House of Chimes - a tower which you might immediately think of as Big Ben - is adrift in the River Thames. It still seems to be keeping time. In the background, a large, alien building looms over the city of London.

I'm extra sad because I looked up this author's work from a few years ago, and it was really good—and very different. But their more recent writing in the past year is this same bland copy, so I know they can write, they're just choosing not to. It's not generative AI, it's generic AI.

I'm editing an article that I'm 90% sure was written with AI and it feels like my brain is melting. Once you see the tells of genAI, you can't unsee them. I also find I don't have any of the joy in helping an author better express themselves because they likely are lazy, don't care, or won't notice.

Yeah! We aren't reading the annotations together, and actually I haven't spent much time looking through them on my own, but there are tons of sketches and concepts added to the margins. This copy is also very special, as Norton Juster signed it at a 50th anniversary event in Philly years ago.

Bloom is pictured against a magenta background with plants. The words SAPPHIC HORROMANCE, FEMALE RAGE, and COTTAGECORE GORE are underneath it. Now I'm imagining Tipper Gore naming her daughter Cottagecore and giggling.
