Same. I aggressively turn off all AI stuff everywhere, my Word subscription is “classic” without AI included, and as soon as I’ve had my coffee in the morning I tell Sam Altman and the tech bros to “Eat shit” the way Chris Evans does in Knives Out.
In case it doesn't go without saying: I have not used gen AI to create text in any of my books. I have not used Grammarly etc to "clean up" the text. I have not used it to research any of my books, except where it might be built into search engines under the hood (I do not use labelled AI results).

Forcing the AG to publicly defend every redaction, line-by-line, would be a fun exercise.
Schiff: "I think we ought to bring Pam Bondi before the Senate Judiciary Committee demand answers as to why the DOJ has violated the law."

All I want for Christmas is for every DC journalist to ask questions like this.
While a bunch of journalists were at the Kennedy Center taking pictures today, I asked the VP of Facilities and Operations at the Kennedy Center a direct question:
“Matt, is this the first time that you’ve defaced a public building?“
Only at Law Dork: www.lawdork.com/p/q-and-a-de...

I really do not care if the guy who has raped kids is from my political party. My moral philosophy is that you don't rape kids, and there is nothing you can do that earns you a get-out-of-raping-kids-free card.

I mean it seems like the administration just keeps stepping on rakes. By releasing a buffoonishly redacted and incomplete set of docs they just prolong the story and suspicion. What’s the strategy here?

I am going to run something set in the 1970s just so I can explain to my 20-something players that the reason their characters don't mind the clouds of cigarette smoke is because the miasma of tetra-ethyl lead killed their sense of smell.
this is a good reminder of how things that are shitty but have been accepted as normal and inevitable can actually turn out to be abnormal and evitable with some science, time, education and political will

One major problem, bluntly, is that lots of folks can't distinguish between good writing and poor writing. This is about education, not intelligence: they could learn the difference, but it's frequently not taught, even in "good" schools. This is ultimately a competitive disadvantage for them.
it's so wild that people conflate quickness with quality so they think chatGPT writing a wall of text in 10 seconds means it's good writing.

I want to raise a few issues with this ...
- The unemployment rate was 4.6% in Nov 2025.
- There are 982,000 more unemployed people in Nov 2025 than in Jan 2025.
- There are 271,000 fewer federal government employees.
- 982,000 > 271,000. More than 3 times more unemployed.

2/2 Nor, when it comes to writing awards, will I nominate or vote to award, a piece of work partially or wholly written by LLM. Awards are for writers who make the effort, not those who offload the difficult aspects of creation to a program mining the work of others. Do the fucking work, people.

1/2 Apropos of nothing in particular, I guarantee I will never write a piece of fiction with the "help" of a large language model because a) I spent too many years developing skills to just fuck off now, b) I don't plagiarize other authors, whether intentionally or by way of statistical matches.

'Mystic Cardigan', our first record as a duo after breaking away from the rest of the band, did not meet the critical or commercial success we'd hoped for, but I am still quite fond of the cover photo.
