Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑

Anyway, if you like a creative's work, please tell us. Tell us what you like. Tell us what it means to you. Because we probably don't see it ourselves.

I dunno, man, the "you guys are being too mean to the plagiarism machines that stole all your work and were created to try to replace you so rich people don't pay you a tiny fraction of their wealth for it" posters popping up are pretty funny

Even accepting the premise that AI produces useful writing (which no one should), using AI in education is like using a forklift at the gym. The weights do not actually need to be moved from place to place. That is not the work. The work is what happens within you.

Please, if you love anything about this life, stop using ChatGPT and other GenAI. Just stop. Don't use it to dunk on it, don't use it for a laugh, just stop and let that shit wither.

Every industry AI sets its evil eye lasers on says the same thing: we don't lack ideas, thanks, we lack time and money.

It's almost like AI was cooked up by people with time and money, but lacking ideas.
If you need help coming up with a 'hypotheses' you shouldn't be a scientist. Every scientist I know has 100 project ideas and lack time to get to them. No on is sitting around twiddling thumbs without an interesting question to ask.

We are in the dumbest timeline.
Need some help with your research? Google's 'AI co-scientist' will come up with hypotheses and research plans for you 🧪

The key to it is "self-play" - a bunch of AI agents arguing among themselves - and the few scientists who've tried it so far seem impressed

Being a writer is almost entirely about perseverance. Life is going to continuously try to keep you from writing or from getting published or from getting things made, and you just have to get in life's way and say “No.”

Still wondering what kind of gift to buy for your loved ones?

This handy illustration will help you solve that problem.

On a completely unrelated note, did you know I've written a book?
