I haven't been saying a lot of Cornell because I don't have a lot to add. The behavior - and the institutional reaction - are both horrific and not surprising. I found this to be a compelling, but uncomfortable, read. celestemdavis.substack.com/p/im-so-sorr...

Worth pointing out that "I'm going to ask you some hard questions about your paper" is very much an anti-AI technique whether or not he claims it is. It's what most profs I know are doing for that exact reason.

Amazon is a big part of this. They use their (essentially) monopoly buying power to squeeze publishers. Bezos's billions are, in part, extracted from writers. Don't buy your books from Amazon.

So the weather forecasting these last few days has just been awful in LA. Completely missing a lot of rain, which basically never happens. Is this a function of national cuts or just because the situation with the hurricane track was so unusual? (Any insight, @weatherwest.bsky.social?)

Hotspur Ron Moskovitz @hotspur.bsky.social · 07/09/2026

Today has been the strangest weather day I can remember. Since 11am, the forecast has been that the rain would be over very soon. Wunderground is normally incredibly accurate about this kind of thing. Every time I've checked, "Yup, after this cloudburst, no more." It's still raining.

OpenAI has repeatedly used the claim that their software is too dangerous to release as a way to build hype. This is (at least) the third or fourth time they've played this tune. I've honestly lost count. These claims should be taken as marketing.

I feel for anybody who honestly thinks their work has been plagiarized, which has to suck regardless of whether they're right. But man, the batting average for people whose approach to thinking they were plagiarized is "P.R. war" is, once you look into the claims deeply, very very close to zero.

This will be convincing only to people who don't know anything about abuse (or are willing to pretend they don't know anything about abuse.) But, like so many RW lies, the point isn't that anybody really believes him. The point is to have a story they can shout loudly and repeatedly.
