Did you know I have a blog/newsletter you can sign up for? It's got cartoons and science (mostly lasers these days). You can even become a supporter to get occasional secret content and to help me pay my blog bill. www.aiweirdness.com/thasers-in-c...

No, I don't need a bloody copilot for this document, thank you. Writing is, in no small part, a tool for thinking. If you outsource that element to a machine that cannot think, you shouldn't be surprised if, at the end of the process, neither you nor your reader are any the wiser.

part of the growing pains of every community, social media, etc is "what do we do with people who are pretending to be kind, saying the right things, and technically not doing anything wrong right now but are still ontologically evil" and the answer is "stop playing their game and ban them"

An anthology is a collection of writings, but the Greek roots are anthos- = "flower", logia = "collection", so it literally refers to flower collecting. The Greek word 'anthologia' is a poet's way of saying "collecting the flowers of literature." (🧑‍🎨: Van Gogh)
