I am so excited to share this poem and join the many many other Icarus poets. Here is my speculative ekphrastic "Flooded Landscape with the Fall of Icarus" which imagines Breughel's landscape altered by climate change.

Thank you @terrainorg.bsky.social!

Grateful to The Verge for publishing my essay on why large-language models are not going to achieve general intelligence nor push the scientific frontier.

Is language the same as intelligence? The AI industry desperately needs it to be
The AI boom is based on a fundamental mistake.

Bring back the Sarah Connor Chronicles.

And more Nick Frost & Simon Pegg movies.

Shut down the Harry Potter TV series
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

If I ever get poetry famous, it'd be cool to be like a rap star who features friends on tracks. Give a stanza to a writer pal the way rappers give a verse to their buddies. Like, "[Title] featuring @readinstead.bsky.social" etc.
