“We” are not running out of good ideas. Rich old cis white men continue disenfranchising and dismissing those with good ideas for their old crusty, dusty, rusty, musty ideas designed to keep them in power. It’s quite simple. AI won’t fix that. The opposite, in fact.

And completely devoid of imagination. Utopia for him is a system in which everyone studies and works to maintain the system, which he controls.

Such a basic megalomaniac— without even a little Bond villain flair.

How about my to-be-published book because I know everyone wants to read about loss, grief, and the structural inequalities that deprive us of the right to mourn.
