If you've never been mocked as a dilettante NPC by your AI slop doppelgänger... maybe don't?!

I kid, I kid. Big thanks to @harmonleon.bsky.social for the out-of-body experience and to Hallie Stern for making it happen!

Back in 2022, I wrote my first (and only) sci-fi story set in Buenos Aires, where a nativist, "Cyber-Peronist" state turns to a startup named Sauron to provide its surveillance infrastructure — because the joke wrote itself. Of course now there's one for real. 🙄🙄🙄

Also happy to receive offers on my original galleys for CYBERSELFISH from 2000 — I swear 100% of the proceeds will go to Paulina herself.
Giving thanks today that Paulina Borsook is FINALLY receiving the recognition she long deserved, albeit far too late.

The @nytimes.com finally profiled Paulina Borsook.

“Silicon Valley, [she] wrote, hated governments, rules and regulations. It believed if you were rich, you were smart ... thought people could be, and should be, programmed like a computer.

Excellent title: The Screen Killed the City. I’m jealous I couldn’t be in Vancouver for this. I promise I’ll visit one day.
My favorite talk of the fall, and it isn't close. Thanks again to

Is our language so impoverished that we have to use acronyms of French phrases to make ourselves understood, Charlie Brown?

Yes.

Only 40%?! Try harder, Chicago.
Yesterday my partner and I counted all the ads along Chicago's Brown Line for "Friend," a company selling an AI chatbot pendant, and tallied how many of those ads were defaced.

Still working on a longer piece on this, but here's the quick and dirty: we counted 104 "Friend" ads total, 42 defaced.

TRUMP [after spending 5 minutes with Zohran]: surplus value, it’s a very wonderful thing, very wonderful, and they’re stealing it. Can you believe that?

Democrats weren't going to win. They were going to force Republicans to kill the filibuster. WIthout the filibuster they would be forced in power to pass a lot of things they don't want to pass.

As a real Chotinerhead, I read all his interviews, and what most fans of his takedowns don't realize is that 80-90% of his guest acquit themselves just fine under the same interview techniques. He's the Dunning-Kruger of Q&As.
