I conducted a seminar and workshop on AI-produced monstrosity, or Generative Monsters, to the Center for Digital Narrative at the University of Bergen, Norway yesterday. High point of my academic career for sure.

When the enormity of the world's horrors makes you feel helpless, narrow your focus. Find one stranger and scold them for posting a recipe while kids are dying. Call out a new mom for not adding alt text to a baby photo. Critique a selfie. Correct a joke. Show people you care more than them.

I'm begging for someone on camera to ask Schumer what the fuck is wrong with him
Chuck Schumer just announced demands on DHS to avoid shutdown:
1. End roving patrols, tighten rules on warrants
2. Enforce accountability & unified code of conduct for agents
3. No more masks & require bodycams
There are *already* standards on much of this.
The issue is DHS isn't following them!

I know it's Bruce but a song this good with such a quick turnover is a miracle
I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

I'm looking for examples of Media Studies / Media Literacy online courses, ideally with available syllabi. If you can at the very least link me to universities where online courses in this field are offered it would be super helpful!

Begging people to please stop posting @halfwaypost.bsky.social's fake stories. It's not even satire. They're not satirizing anything; they're just writing fan fiction.
If you look in the replies to any of their posts, it's like 95% people who think it's real. They should stop it.

This is actually the legal way to do it. This isnt a newsworthy story unless your angle is "Anthropic unlike OpenAI didnt train on pirated material" but it doesnt look like thats the case. It doesnt think you know what *libraries* do with old books if this upsets you.
Anthropic hired the former head of Google Books to oversee its secret "Project Panama," new court docs show — quietly buying millions of used books in bulk, breaking their spines and scanning them to feed into its Claude chatbot. wapo.st/4rjXAMQ
