What is happening is not that AI-generated cultural goods are replacing human-made cultural goods; what is happening is that capital is flowing out of the production of cultural goods *entirely,* making us all poorer for it.

you shouldn’t learn about bands from shady TikTok manipulation, you should learn about bands by hanging out with a girl you like but are also extremely afraid of

The whiplash I got when checking reviews for this "Permanent Mulch Recycled Rubber Pathway."

The product image for "Raedon Permanent Mulch Recycled Rubber Pathway"

Bought some of these four years ago and they were still holding up very well, but I own a hair salon and decide to glue hair and make it into a hair path which worked for a while but now it looks disgusting so I needed to replace it

One of the many reasons AI can't produce good writing is it can't hate its own writing. It can't think to itself "Maybe I'm illiterate" during the writing process. And that's essential

let's say nice strangers introduce you to their beautiful dog. a dog named like a senator's son. a name you last saw on the collar of a dog that came bounding out of nowhere to befriend you in the woods so many winters ago. do NOT gaze at him mistily while saying something dumb like "oh, we've met"

There’s an aggressively paid for influence op going on right now to defend AI slop as art and protected speech across platforms. AI execs realize they have a problem and don’t wanna get Marie Antoinette’d. The free ChatGPT trip is the tip of the iceberg. First person to nail it down gets a Pulitzer.

I wrote about the importance of literary friction and how the acts of thinking and learning and growing are anathema in our increasingly fascistic world. Which is all the more reason to double down on them. lithub.com/in-praise-of...

In Praise of “Wordy, Old Prose.” (Or, F*ck Your AI Reading Buddy)

More than two years ago I wrote an angry piece about how lame the bulletpointization of books is: the point of reading and engaging with books is not so the reader can consume little bullet points …

the AI search arms race is the new pivot to video & the internet is gonna be 95% keyword slop soon enough, but every time the search algo gets gamed it has to change how it ranks content. once everything is pattern-matched to hell, these losers are gonna need actual soul-having arbiters of taste
