The AI slop summer book preview/supplement in the Chicago Sun-Times is about what's happened in media more than what's happening with AI. This Slate piece gets it and I have some thoughts from the perspective of someone who writes about books for a major Chicago newspaper. slate.com/technology/2...

This was just posted by @tbretc.bsky.social on another platform. The Chicago Sun-Times obviously gets ChatGPT to write a ‘summer reads’ feature almost entirely made up of real authors but completely fake books. What are we coming to?

My favorite waking dreams by far are the ones that position me in the middle of some epic, historic concert that never happened. This morning was some fantastical UK spot and the Clash and most randomly placed dudes in the crowd with electrified dobro-type things.

Perfect gatefold photo on The National’s “Rome” 2LP release. If you’ e ever seen ‘em live, you know the immaculate vibes at this exact point in the show.

The biggest sign of how catastrophically the X brand has failed is that in Kanye West’s Heil Hitler song he still calls it Twitter

Finally saw Tedeschi Trucks live last night. Best two drummer band out there — and it’s a full 12-piece! Catch ‘em on tour

This was fun to listen to and brought me back to Chicago 2002 when I was too lazy to catch Yeah Yeah Yeahs at Empty Bottle in February, but did not miss them at Fireside Bowl later in the year. A loud, lasting memory. I think Wesley Willis randomly set up in between sets.

“Frankie & Johnny” stuck in my head for days. Waxing nostalgic about being part of this Big Bill Broonzy anthology release with Smithsonian Folkways. open.spotify.com/album/6Mw3W9...

Honestly, “let’s reopen Alcatraz” is the kinda thing an AI says before being set back due to hallucinations. But with Trump it’s legit front page news?

Great to see @mattbusch28.bsky.social at Garcia’s last night with @gratefulaimee.bsky.social and crew. Sam Grisman Project has upped the game 10x since last time I saw them, fully dialing in the early 90’s Garcia/Grisman sound and vibe. Catch ‘em this summer where you can!

I’ve been to a fuckton of shows in my life and love calling back specific moments/feelings. A frequent remembrance is the first time I felt the crowd move as one. I was 16 and the shoulder to shoulder pit had me lifted off the ground. Ned’s Atomic Dustbin. Cabaret Metro Chicago 1991 or ‘92.
