Imagine if they just subsidized newspapers and magazines the way they’re subsidizing this slop
"All of this falls apart if humans don't adopt the tech. This is why you've seen Meta cram its lame chatbots into WhatsApp and Instagram. This is why Notepad and Paint now have useless Copilot buttons on Windows. This is why Google Gemini wants to "help you" read and reply to your emails."
Analysis: OpenAI is a loss-making machine, how can it survive?
Don't call it a bubble! Loss-making monster OpenAI is on the hook for $1.4 trillion (with a T) in compute commitments. How can this go on?

The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.

The Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln just ran a TV ad during the Husker game urging people to call regents and oppose the unit from being cut. That’s a new one for me.

New clues hint at early signs of domestication in raccoons that feast on urban trash | CNN

I know this is just how academia works, but it’s truly baffling that I started the initial version of this D.H. Lawrence paper for a seminar class in November 2023 and here I am, two conference versions of it later, still tweaking (2 years later!) it in the hopes of publication.
