Tammy Salyer @tammy-salyer.bsky.social · 21/09/2026I love how Doctorow describes the type of writing feedback AIs give authors in this essay, and it succinctly explains why I think it's pointless to edit for people who generate their books with AI. pluralistic.net/2026/09/21/s...pluralistic.netPluralistic: The Claude Delusion (21 Sep 2026) – Pluralistic: Daily links from Cory Doctorow 000
Reposted by Tammy SalyerEric R Fairhurst 📚 🦋 🎷🎨 @efairhurst.bsky.social · 19/09/2026We regulate bioweapons research because an escaped virus doesn't ask permission before it spreads. We should treat rogue AI agents the same way — once one's loose and acting on its own, 'we'll fix it later' isn't a strategy. Containment has to come before deployment, not after. 142

Tammy Salyer @tammy-salyer.bsky.social · 17/09/2026#TeenageSexandDeathatCampMiasma is an absolute gem of a film. So weird, so wacky, and so WTFy. I literally didn't know until the very end exactly what was happening, but in a good way! It's one of those movies that doesn't try to be profound and somehow was both bonkers and touching at once. 000
