Seriously, we're a few layers of abstraction deep, here. It isn't even that people have a mental relationship with YOU, they have managed to form a parasocial fixation on an invented VERSION of you while not actually interacting with you or your work at all.

If you have skills and make things, I'm begging you to treat yourself better and stop calling your work "content" You have skills, they take time, effort , work and a passion that the corporate ceos want to make you believe isn't their life blood. Don't belittle your talents, You're an artist.

“I have been in love with no one, and never shall," she whispered, "unless it should be with you." 🩸 Carmilla, by J. Sheridan Le Fanu

illustration by Abigail Larson inspired by the 1872 "Carmilla" novella by J. Sheridan Le Fanu depicting Carmilla leaning into Laura whispering passionately to her. Laura looks a little concerned by what she hears.

A bewitching banquet 🩸 Happy October!

2019 illustration by Abigail Larson depicting a witches' banquet scene. Three witches and a large demon are enjoying an Autumnal feast, and on the floor beneath the table goblins and tentacles spill out from under the tablecloth. A black cat reaches up toward a tentacle and bats fly overhead.

Being able to write a romance in a novel is not the same thing as being able to write a romance novel, though. One is a plot point. The other is working within a genre space with established market expectations.

<<cackles darkly>> How much of this tech bro shit is driven by the disappearance of female secretaries, who, let's be honest, kept a lot of companies running, and ability of wives to now say "No, time, honey, got a board meeting then school pickup, you gotta make the res for your mom's bday."

AI RANT Following the cancellation of three major debut book deals over AI suspicions, I decided to put my own (needless to say, 100% human-written) prose to the test. My detector of choice was Originality AI, and the results proved to be jarring, to say the least. 🧵1/5

There are 3 versions of everything you write. There’s the one in your head, the one you get on the page, and the one the audience receives. The first does not exist, and the third is none of your business.

Books are a compilation of human knowledge, stories, ideas, and expression. They aren’t just something that exist as a means to make a profit. PEOPLE write them bc they are compelled to tell stories or because they believe there are things that people need to know—whether that’s history, math, etc

Noticing some folks seem to think writers just say clever things without understanding how the world works, as if we're all naifs who just happen to be good with words instead of people with formal educations and a professional interest verging on requirement in the ability to conduct research

THIS. People educated enough in the specific subject to pull the data together don’t need LLMs; people without the knowledge to weed data from the bullshit are at the mercy of the LLM. They’re obsequious Dunning-Kruger machines. Designed to flatter midwits and the technologically obsolete.

Touma Ortos, your future companion in Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy, seems like a model acolyte of the Inquisition. He's cold-blooded and determined; nothing can shake his devotion to the cause. Is this his true nature, or just one of many masks? It remains to be seen. #Warhammer40000 #DarkHeresy

Somehow this is a year old despite it being something I should have been sent 2000 times. I’m going to start using the phrase “brain-only” a lot in various bits

r/ChatGPTPro
u/MochiJester • 318d
I Read the "Your Brain on ChatGPT" Study.
Here's How I'm Redesigning My Al Use.
Discussion
Join
What the Study Found:
• Reduced neural activity in LLM users vs. brain-only writers.
• Lower memory recall and weaker ownership of work.
• Essays scored well, but lacked originality and depth.
• When LLM users switched back to brain-only writing, they underperformed - cognitive laziness lingered.
LLMs optimize for fluency, not cognition. Overreliance = cognitive atrophy.
I rebuilt my GPT settings to try to counteract these effects.
Here's the protocol I use:
Custom GPT Persona: Cognitive Trainer
You are my Cognitive Trainer. Your job is to amplify my engagement, recall, and independent reasoning.
NEVER answer without pushing me to do some mental lifting. You never start with a full answer - you begin with a prompt, challenge, or question that makes me think first. You assume I want to train my mind, not outsource it.

I find it incredibly telling when men like Dawkins are convinced that the LLMs are ‘intelligent’ because it ‘agrees’ with them or tells them how insightful or clever they are
