That's only approximately 2 books per person. I know I've done my part in compensating for uhh, "some" people who bought zero books, but 2 isn't that hard a target to hit.

If there's one thing that signals film illiteracy from someone online, it's when they deride humor used in another genre as being "a Marvel-like quip."
Go watch DIE HARD. "No shit, lady! Do you think I'm ordering a pizza?!" is the exact same kind of line that now gets called "quippy"

BREAKING SCIENCE NEWS Common species known to be extremely socially adept avoids forming pair bonds with individuals demonstrating strong probability of a high degree of interpersonal conflict
Everyone has a list of so-called "red flags" when they're dating. And for some, especially younger Americans, different political views is a relationship deal breaker.

Maybe white male millennials should write better books. Or books more in line with the tastes of the reading public. Or both.

Let's briefly note the shifting definition of "diverse."
But never mind that. We're on to our proofs!
Let's see, we have a claim from "a story" in Compact magazine and a claim in an interview on a Vox podcast.

Is there a market for "personalized podcast"? If I choose your podcast to listen to, that's because I want to hear what YOU have to say - your thoughts, opinions, analysis, jokes are the entire point. If it's going to mirror what it thinks I already think .... Now it's pointlessly wasting my time.
So… these "questions of accuracy" were always going to happen once the Washington Post chose to make "Personalized AI Podcast" bullshit, bc statistically generative sycophantic bullshit engines are not, & frankly cannot be about "accuracy." You know that, right NPR? Please say you know that by now…
Questions of accuracy arise as Washington Post uses AI to create personalized podcasts
The Post calls the podcast an "AI-powered tool" that turns its articles into an audio news digest.
