Such a great behind-the-scenes look from one of the characters in the famous story! And yes, @stefansecho.bsky.social is exactly the guy for this one. (Personal bonus: I saw Sir Patrick's one-man show. 😊) Thanks for your wonderful tale!

What a wonderful and very important story. My job is swamped with heavy AI-related topics and glad to see a real-world portrayal of what's going on. Compelling and beautifully written, and brava on getting @stefansecho.bsky.social, the best in the biz. Many thanks!

This isn't about whether you like Harvard or not. This is about whether any organization in our country has a right to exist without bending the knee to Donald Trump.

HOLY SHIT. The ban on any federal funding gender-affirming care includes stripping ACA plans of covering it as the essential care it is. I have an ACA plan. I live in a blue state, but I am about to lose access to treatments I need. We told you this was coming www.advocate.com/politics/ant...

"Most, if not all, of the books competing for [coverage] are still written with care + edited with care + published with care. Getting the word out about one of these books is difficult enough without having to compete with books that don’t exist."

Just a reminder that your local library has more than books! Many also have dvds, cds, board games, video game systems, internet hot spots, streaming services, computers, ebooks, audio books, park passes, museum passes, passport services and so much more! Maybe it's time for a visit 📚❤️

While I can see the benefits of AI in many areas, this is a NO WAY for me. Publishers be warned: listeners are very choosy about audio narrators. Do this at your peril. Better not to have an audiobook at all, than this. #booksky

I'm trying to think of what to call this. It's not al Kristallnacht. We need a name for this kind of government violence, of snatching people off the street and going into places without a warrant. We should name it, not them.

You're absolutely not an idiot. People at all levels are being tricked with AI-created images, personas, articles, voices,+ everything else. There are many strategies to defeat/recognize these, w. only partial success. Only way to live is to be suspicious of everything, which is an incredible shame.

"Wild Dark Shore" is just extraordinary. An island in the cold sea, wildlife + plants, a research station, part of a family taking care of it all, a stranger washed up during a storm. Enthralling, unpredictable, gorgeous writing. #booksky #WildDarkShore #CharlotteMcConaghy

Look, another disgusting display from Karoline Levitt at the White House. I mentioned these people are arrested and not charged. Her boss #Trump has 34 felony convictions and a rape charge which is probably 34 more than most of these people. The people in the Whitehouse are children.
