Failed presidential candidates should just stop writing books. In fact, politicians in general should stop reading books. None of these people can write (nor their ghostwriters)

“Ben, do you really think AI supporters are that big of babies?”
I in fact no they are because when I made a Facebook post a few weeks ago about how I want nothing to do with AI, a supporter spent 48 fucking hours trying to convince me otherwise. AI supporters are fucking cry babies, man.

I've been feeling like this was gonna be coming at any point with the AI bubble.
As the generated content becomes even more pronounced, proudly proclaiming "hey our this is Actually Different, hand crafted and one of a kind" would become the new marketing bullet (which it should!)

My take on the RFK Jr./Olivia Nuzzi/Ryan Lizza debacle is this:
