Remember that dingus the other day scolding about how it's pointless to yell at "big companies" about their acceptance or use of AI?

The moral is we should bully anyone pushing AI garbage relentlessly because they will fold immediately
Oh hey SFWA revised their Nebula Awards LLM stance, from an email that just went out.

I don't understand why you of all organizations are so eager to shoot yourselves in the foot with LLMs when every sci-fi story is about how reliance on robots degrades humanity

Another Nebula Awards nomination cycle is in full swing, and the addition of poetry and comics, along with the presence of LLMs in industry, required careful consideration.
Read on, and vote well!

sometimes in the course of writing you hit a beat that you can't 100% justify in the narrative, but as long as you settle for not knowing exactly why it happens? boy does it kind of slap

I am deep in the part of book writing when I have become painfully, constantly aware that I am just not smart enough to write this book. This is a good and necessary part of the book writing and happens every time. The thing that will change is me.

Do you think certain companies are pushing ai garbage now so that in six months they can remove it and say "well we tried and nobody used it" whenever anyone asks about it in the future, or is that giving them too much credit

I've been on a musical kick and I can't tell who is worse, Evan Hansen or the girl in 36 Questions. I think they were made for each other

Hunter X Hunter is wild because you can say "this wolf's power is to ask questions and then shoot truth-seeking missiles at you and those missiles plant centipedes in your brain that grow bigger to kill you" and that's just a real thing that happens

*in a white linen suit, dabbing sweat* Now, I'm no fancy scientist, but would you folk know where a simple gentlewoman such as myself could obtain some estrogen?

Epic Game Store's free game this week is Madame TERF's Transphobic School Simulator, so a reminder that every fragment of attention you give to this franchise is fuel for keeping JKR's anti-trans legislation machine rolling, even the bits you don't pay for

sometimes in the course of writing you introduce Aphrodite by having her inhabit a 30-foot tall statue, and then you gotta pause the action to add in a consensual vore sequence because if you don't you know people will be like "no vore :(?"
