The only sequel of the Social Network worth making was an adaption of Careless People. It starts with the author getting attacked by a shark for god's sake.
Aaron Sorkin’s ‘Social Reckoning’ is off to a weak start
Melbourne Victory vs South Melbourne at a sold out AAMI Park tonight. Biggest game in Victorian football history by my reading and not a single story about it on the front page of The Age's website. Just a sad state of affairs, reflecting how much the code is up against it in Australia. #ausnews
One of the funniest things I've read. Correctly labeling something as AI-generated is now a slur. You can't make this up. Never change AI bros.
AI-generation is a statement about creator, not accuracy, used as a slur to devalue the content. I don’t care who or what creates content. I care about the accuracy. You didn’t start with specific examples about accuracy. You started by shooting the messenger. Grasp the difference.
