So that AI-generated “Summer Reading List” full of made up books illustrates an important fact about AI art & writing we need to wrap our heads around. Because the easy story is “greedy corporate paper replaces humans with AI slop”. But that’s not what happened here, or in a lot of similar cases.

Fired this back up last night. I dug it when it came out and they've definitely improved it. One of those games that would have completely rewritten my identity if it had come out when I was a kid.

My latest piece goes out either Monday or Tuesday next week, it's called "The Era of the Business Idiot." I believe our society is in the thrall of middle management, and it's turned our economy into a series of symbolic gestures between people that don't really know what's going on. Wheresyoured.at

Ignoring all the issues I have with the production of this show, the entire point of the games is the player's complicity in the cycle of violence. The whole enterprise is built on choosing to commit violence. It was a problem in S1 and it's a WAY BIGGER problem in S2.

Land acknowledgement in a ketamine clinic ad on Lex is just. If I wrote it as a joke scenario it would be critiqued as “a little on the nose”

Whatever impostor syndrome you may have once had, dispose of it fucking immediately. If these people run the country, you deserve that promotion, you can run for city council, you can start that business. If this is the baseline, shit, you can do surgery drunk in an alley and you will do less harm.

Generations are bubbles and this feels like a call for help. You're going to age but you're going to be fine. You can laugh at yourself and those around you. The younger ones are the folks who wish to be taken seriously, and one day they too will learn that nothing is as serious as we make it.
