His gross taste and his disgusting manners are just as bad as his atrocious politics. I hope the midterms will be the beginning of the end of this regime. One must not lose hope!

I spoke about Adaptation Studies and the Environmental Humanities for our Open Imaginaries Project. The extraordinary kindness of hosts Prof. Heebon Park, Dr Minki Kim, Sungji Lee and the entire team overwhelmed me. A shout out to fellow keynote speaker & travelling companion Mark Thornton Burnett.

The project assembles AI images of cityscapes supposedly representing the political programs of various parties. With their otherworldly glow and cartoonish aesthetics, all of these images have the same generic AI slop look familiar from countless LinkedIn posts and PowerPoint presentations

Miss Austen www.bbc.com/culture/arti...
'The truth is she did the right thing': The mystery of why Jane Austen's letters were destroyed – by her own sister
Austen is one of the greatest writers in the English language – but relatively little is known about her. And that's in part because of an act that infuriates many to this day.

Anyhow, the distributed plagiarism of LLMs is so much more sophisticated than good old-fashioned copy & paste. Authorship is messy and dangerous. Data will keep us safe and clean. There ist no truth outside of data. Data is God.

Eckart Voigts @ecco0210.bsky.social · Jan 16
Maybe a bad feeling, but also a great idea. As long as someone uses LLMs to produce text they can be thought of as 'responsible', right? No interest, no creativity. Apart from evolution. Wait, now it gets complicated.

If you start watching David Cronenberg's 1981 film Scanners tonight at 23:47 and 40 seconds that guy on the right's head will explode precisely at midnight.

I have no idea why you would want to do this. But you could.

Maybe one of the reasons there are so many unhinged academics is that in order to keep your job, you’re constantly required to tout yourself as a Scholar of World-Historical Significance, even as your office’s ceiling tiles slowly dislodge themselves to fall on your head.
