Manisha Krishnan@manishakrishnan.bsky.social ยท last wk.Authors and journalists are doing more first-person (hello 2010s blogging) and embracing "mistakes" in writing to prove they're not chatbots. There's even an โanti-Grammarly" app that leaves in typos and signs off "sent from my iPhone" to create more authenticity: www.wired.com/story/more-t...

This is a news story designed to destroy my soul, specifically. I am just going to choose to forget I ever saw it and continue hating these companies for all the other, more emotionally manageable reasons
Dr. Jeroen W.P. Wijnendaele@drdragases.bsky.social ยท last wk.No longer content with pillaging intellectual work and dismembering our environment (already critically weakened), AI companies are now hellbent on destroying books galore including rare editions. Shut down these nefarious enterprises already.
Watching Chainsmoker Cat with one of my friend groups is an exercise in me going "oh my parents did that", one of the other members going "my grandma did that too!", and everyone else sitting in horrified silence as we bond over living with chainsmokers growing up. Anyway, show is pretty good.

It's impossible to scream at artists on the internet loud enough to make them answer accurately if a huge project involved AI or not You're not Batman. Most of them are just individuals doing their jobs. Fuck AI, but don't let it rob you of your humanity towards human artists.
Stephan Krosecz@stephank.bsky.social ยท last wk.Gonna be real: it's deeply shitty to aggressively demand that artists who worked on a large project guarantee to you that nobody who touched the project used AI. They can't know that and they're not responsible for that. They can only know things within the scope of their own job.

While we are in this Greek Mythology moment, may I remind you that Emma Thompson is adapting Pat Barkerโs take on The Iliad, and sheโs struggled to get it made bc the focus on what acts of war against women and survival thereafter actually look like (the core of Barkerโs narrative) is too intense.

The actress told the Hay Festival she is writing a film version of Pat Barkerโs The Silence of the Girls to draw attention to sexual abuse in war zones
