YES
and also: AI summaries for YouTube videos is the most insultingly uninspiring feature ever. I want to SEE the food, the art, the comedy, the people, in the video. I want to be surprised and delighted. I do not need a machine-digested version of the video regurgitated to me. It’s distracting.

I cannot emphasize enough how little I want to see AI illustrations of blog posts. Ethics aside, it is boring to look at one version of a computer's simulation of what a human might have done. I'd rather imagine it myself. I'd rather just read the text. I'd rather just stare into the void.

"Bamboo" is maybe exotic and a compelling hook but it is too easy. The real story here is the growing culture of corruption, including a lack of accountability and oversight, that enabled a chain of human errors that led to this disaster.

Disgust: The Unexpected Psychological Reason Why Some People Dislike Density
Op-ed: New research suggests that people with higher disgust sensitivity find higher densities less appealing. What does that mean for urban planners?
