The rush to accuse, without anything approaching due diligence, artists of using "AI," should be treated with contempt. An artist gets their work *ripped off* to train a plagiarism machine, which then shits out inferior versions of that work, so then you accuse the artist of using "AI"? Fuck you.

Today is the "My Hoopla won't work day." No one in library school said, "You'll spend most of your day trying to fix a device that you can't even see."

I've evidently opened a can of worms answering a question. Evidently her late dad was married before he married her mom. She says it can't be right, but her grandparents names are listed in the wedding announcement in the paper, so it isn't just the same name. The secret is out....

@noethematt.bsky.social did you post an article recently about AI creating a disease base on symptoms? I'm doing a workshop with students and wanted to use it as an example. Thank you

New weekend postman. He started at the other end of the block. I adore my regular postman. He had his office hold my folks ashes if he was off, so a stranger wouldn't bring them.

Terrible night's sleep. So up extra early with the cats. Realized as I lay awake that I haven't heard the middle of the night skateboarder in ages. Hopefully a sign their insomnia is better.

LIBRARIES BUY BOOKS. In fact, they buy ebook licenses with rather unfavorable terms because of how much the service benefits the community. The only people getting screwed in this situation are libraries and library users. The only people doing the screwing are publishers.

My co-worker has had a piece of information for 40 years and hasn't done anything to program around it. My department has decided to. Now I am encroaching on her territory and have failed to consult with her. This is how much I care at this point about her pouting

Need to get my Peter Max tray out of the closet to use it in honour of the late designer. Not my tray but a picture of what it looks like. I always thought it was very cool and might therefore make me look cool by association when I was younger. LOL
Pink tray by designer Peter Max.  It is pink with the word love in a stylize script and a pop art woman above the words.

Bob Mackie just passed. I remember my mom buying a fancy Mackie blouse for an event. It was right after the divorce & her confidence was kicked. Seeing her face when she looked in the mirror. In it she felt powerful. I know he dressed famous people,but he made ordinary people feel fancy too.

I know I’ve been tweeting a lot about AI doom lately, and dismissing it a bit. But just to be fair and balanced I want to say. If you’re working at an AI company and you say “I’m really worried that the thing I’m building will extinct humanity” and you keep building it, you should surely go to jail

Cats got me up early as usual. The unusual part was idiot cat making lots of noise on the way to my bed. .... Because she got her head stuck in an empty Kleenex box, because my husband stuck a candy wrapper in it so she'd leave the wrapper alone. So much for that cunning plan. #caturday

My brother flunked his sleep apnea test big time. My daughter goes, "And who is surprised by that? He sleeps sitting on the edge of his bed and still has apnea." Hopefully he can learn to live with the machine.

In my dream my family and I were staying at a Butlins. The next day we set off to climb Ben Nevis. It began to rain part way up. I know shocker. We did get up and back though. Doubt there is a Butlins in Scotland. There is a distillery near the mountain though.

They fu…messed up real bad when they led with how much AI was going to displace white collar workers. If they figure out how to promise it will only harm poor people, they’ll be scot-free. the other side is racing against their ego death.
