take THAT, bubbled bluesky critics of an unregulated money and electricity burning bullshit machine built and managed by amoral oligarchs currently throwing their full support behind the disintegration of democracy!
The NYT Magazine asked me and @caseynewton.bsky.social to open their AI issue by talking about how we use AI, why it's not going away, and how you can't be a serious critic if you're in denial about how useful it is. Bluesky's gonna love this one!
