Pretty clear to me there’s a very good case against this man for mass murder, and I’m saying that in as measured a fashion as I can. He’s order the killing of 234 people under no plausible war or legal justification. I am skeptical he will ever face legal accountability for til his but he should.

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.”

The great thing about “super intelligence” is if anyone says it to you you can be like “I don’t know what you’re talking about” and then if they try to explain you can say “that doesn’t sound right”

And really, Frasier was brilliant because of the supporting cast. I doubt I’ll ever watch the revival simply because David Hyde Pierce isn’t in it. His portrayal of Niles elevated that show into something truly special.
