biggest technological revolution of our lifetimes and it's not AI or blockchain or cryptocurrency or metaverse.
“South Africans like Dr. Booley have found a remedy for power cuts that have plagued people in the developing world for years. Thanks to swiftly falling prices of Chinese made solar panels and batteries, they now draw their power from the sun.”

I think you should get weirder and freakier about their writing next year. Expel the thoughts of "is this too much? too strange? too out there?" fuck it, we ball. Break the ancient seal cast upon ye. Unleash the inner esoteric thing within clawing, begging to wreak creative havoc.

AI has actively made life worse for literally everyone

- tech is now more expensive
- you cannot trust most media of reality anymore
- programs barely function
- energy prices
- literal psychosis
- your voice can be literally stolen for evil
- more spyware

but hey, you can avoid paying an artist.

Genuinely wondering how grammerly is doing post AI, I used it before AI and it was complete ass, genuinely made my writing worse I think. But now my desire to use any computer editing software tanked now that I can’t trust anyone to not use AI or steal my work. I can’t imagine grammarly doing well.

Saying it ahead of TGA tomorrow cause I know Best Narrative is going to Clair Obscur but Silent Hill F 100% deserves the win for that category by FAR.

I think it would be fun if writers who love language started intentionally writing more strangely as AI flattens written "content" into a mono-voice. it would cool I think if writers responded by focusing their individual efforts on cultivating a really unique voice that's hard to copy

I actually have lots of takes but my takes more closely resemble a Greek taxi driver than anything productive so I keep them off of here for everyone else’s sake
