Wasn't it all the Magats who got ugly whenever anyone else wore a mask? Apparently, only people violating the Constitution should wear them.

4. The conflict would be when someone says, "Write a song that sounds like it was written by Elton John." That's when the ethics turn "questionable". Similarly deep fakes.

3. Or me, researching for book. "I can't remember artist." (Describe song.) AI: "That might be..."

2. Musician: "AI, I just created this. Do you think it's too similar to my favorite Prince song?"

1. If we were discussing the outdoors and fishing, I would bow to Morris' expertise. But on AI? Not so much. "Don't read books or look at art" is terrible advice for people and not much better for AI training. Note: Computer programmer and author. Two highly creative fields.

When you want to hide the details, you're pretty much telling everyone you have something to hide.

I didn't know Graham could be even further batshit than he's been in the past.

How bad do you have to be as a white male writer if you need to be coddled like this?

As someone who DOES work in IT and has had that sort of support position in the past, I can tell you that the number 1 reason for a computer not working is a cord isn't plugged in where it needs to be plugged in. Or the surge protector it turned off.

I didn't need to watch the debacle to know it was end-to-end lies.

Wait. You can do that?

Clearly, the solution is a well-placed endash.

I'm an author. I get my share of "I hated it" reviews. I don't read my own reviews anymore, because while most of them are positive, one negative review can linger. That being said, if the main character is passive in the story, DNF.

You may talk about and promote your book for the rest of your life. Just read the room when you do so.

As an indie author, I thank you.

How do you throw an entire company into jail?

We have unfettered access to the breadth and depth of human knowledge, but it's our own responsibility to navigate between all the BS.

The internet does a great job of consolidating stupidity together, however, where the stupid and ignorant congregate and convince each other how smart they are.
