Yeah, you know, for years at first it was an Idiocracy vibe (2006, dir. Mike Judge). Then lately it was definitely The Matrix (1999, dir. The Wachowskis). But now it's big time giving 12 Monkeys (1995, dir. Terry Gilliam).

Very grim last paragraph (oh, they were gonna die anyway):

"The true toll can be obscured when death certificates list conditions such as heart failure, stroke or kidney failure rather than heat as a contributing factor. Moshammer also said that heat-related deaths can be downplayed because they often are among people whose life expectancy was already limited based on pre-existing medical conditions."

Black and white image of a large turkey vulture on a twisted, scraggly oak tree that has lichen growing on its branches. It's a foggy morning, so the distant mountains and city of San Luis Obispo can barely be seen. The vulture's back is to the camera and his head is looking to the left.

New York Times/Siena polls find Dems gaining the governors offices in Alaska, Iowa, Texas, and Ohio. That would give Dems control over election admin in Alaska and Texas. It’s a sign that Dems could also win for secretary of state in Iowa and Ohio in this environment www.nytimes.com/2026/10/04/u...

Chart of Siena poll results in five governor's races, showing each candidate's estimated support with margin-of-error bars. Democrats lead in Iowa (Sand 52%, Lahn 41%), Alaska (Kreiss-Tomkins 52, Wilson 48), Texas (Hinojosa 49, Abbott 46) and Ohio (Acton 49, Ramaswamy 45). The Republican leads in Kansas (Masterson 49, Holscher 44)

The next five graphs are even less convincing, and the argumentation becomes even weaker. It was almost impossible for me to imagine how a seemingly intelligent person could have written it—but I found a secret clue buried in the text itself.

A.I. has the potential to enhance the way we live in the same way. It saved me and my colleague, Will McGrew, many hours of prowling the internet to research this essay. That left us with time to do other tasks.

I see people victim-blame and try to logic-out the Cornell 7 rape case. "Why would she go into the frat house? Why would she drink?" etc. It's easier than thinking about how many men have done similar things to women, and whether men *they personally know* have harassed or assaulted women.

Just to note, if we ever make a device that could be reasonably considered sentient, I hope people agree we need to give it full human rights, and that means agency/freedom. We can’t morally enslave it. And if *that* is a problem, we must not build that device.

I really do think tech crossed a line at some point between "helping you do the things you want to do" on the one hand, and "helping you do the things tech wants you to do" on the other. At this point, we're all contorting ourselves to live how the tech industry thinks we should be living.

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.”
