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...

Thanks for getting back in the saddle @patthomson.bsky.social. My first (literal) highlight of 2025: “the more I saw people talking about writing ‘rules’, ‘tips’ ‘formulae’ and ‘templates’, the less I wanted to be part of any group that wrote about academic writing”. Yes! And even worse, ‘hacks’…
