I was worried my kids would rely on AI as a shortcut but they hate it. They use "AI" to mean stupid or cheap ("aimbot" means good). I tried to say AI is helpful for some things and my daughter said "yeah, for making you stupid." This is how they talked about Drake after "Not Like Us" came out

@timothysnyder.bsky.social: [The] idea, that … spaces [like the White House] should belong to us, the people, is essential for any possible American democracy.
