I'm pretty sure I know. They aren't. We're not going to really be able to make a lot of progress in dealing with the implications of this tech unless and until we get rid of all this "woo-woo" talk about LLMs. Anthropic pushing this line is PR, unserious.

For everyone blaming mental illness and being trans for the shooting, congratulations on making everything worse. I wish you a merry “go to hell”

The fallout would be catastrophic. Everyone would lose. Wait a week and he will forget this bridge existed. He already forgot about overseeing it in his first administration.

When someone says something you made is beautiful try not to burst into tears right then and there. It’s unprofessional

Either someone at the US government doesn’t understand where penguins live or the AI doesn’t and there is no quality control. Either way it’s terrifying.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

My kitty cosmic horror story just made it to the first draft. I find the upcoming butchery I will do, to be easier. You cannot break something apart until it exists.

When I saw the announcement I thought is was satire as it was such obvious homage to the Hunger Games.

I guess it’s real and transphobic. May the odds ever be in your favour.

I'm not surprised. There is no real science behind what the farm is claiming. They could study the birds but they would be in quarantine for the rest of their lives.
This sucks. It sucks for poultry farmer it sucks for the cattle farmer.

I had my first experience of people asking me to sign my work. I could not stop thanking everyone who asked. It's my low self-esteem. I'm over the moon that anyone who think something I made was worth sharing. Thank you everyone.

There is nothing better than receiving comments on fanfic. So far I got “this is cute” to “why would you post something like this”. All positive things. I’m so happy.

There are now three people who don’t know what they talking about agreeing. It doesn’t matter if it’s 3 or 300 they still don’t know what they’re talking about.

Tylenol does not cause autism. This announcement exists only to demonize and control people who give birth. This fascist regime doesn’t need to support or care about autism anymore because now it’s somebody’s else’s fault.

There are so many unknowns here. Can birds become immune to avian flu? What about that more lethal strain was found in the flock?

The CFIA is acting out of caution. But if the birds are immune it’s an overreaction. We don’t know. There is a massive data gap.

I need a timeline cleanse. How about a table of contents announcement! That’s right—despite the world being on fire, it’s time to reveal the TOC for Year’s Best Canadian F&SF Volume 3! It was VERY hard to narrow the list down but it's all killer, no filler. The book launches October 14. Enjoy! 1/2

These are the days that most make you feel like a hack, but they are VITAL!

Any words on a page, even stuff you know you'll delete later, is better than no words

Push through that discomfort! Give yourself permission to be a shitty writer for a day!
