If I lived in an area where I could walk to the neighborhood coffee shop and buy a pumpkin spice latte, today is the day I'd do it.

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.”

Last night in class we did one of my favorite group exercises--a villanelle cento derived from a WSJ financial report. The low stakes are what make it fun.
