Former Trump Ukraine envoy Keith Kellogg said he would tell Zelensky to strike every Russian oil refinery, arguing there should be no military sanctuaries. “I’d burn down every one of the goddamn refineries that Russia has today. Take them all out. Make them pay the price.” #Ukraine

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.”
