New sci-fi out in 34 Orchard! "You Already Know How This Will End" is about the stories we're obsessed with--and the cost of those obsessions. I'm working on something long-form, so this will likely be my last piece out for a long time. It's the perfect story to end on :) 34orchard.com/issue-12/

Hot dogs 💯💯. If you're using AI to make "art", you're just indulging in cheap plagiarism so you can avoid the hard-work part of making art.

No disclaimer for stories drafted by AI? Guess no more clicks for BI from me!
www.theverge.com/news/779739/...
Business Insider reportedly gives journalists green light to write stories with AI — and it won’t tell readers
The policy makes Insider one of the first major US newsrooms to permit such extensive use of the technology.

My story is out in Small Wonders today!

“What was supposed to happen was this: on the faire’s opening day, Princess Lilaclaire would visit the pond, kiss a frog into a prince, share a candy apple with him to test their true love, and live happily ever after.”

Read to see what actually happened…

I Hate My Friend
The chatbot-enabled Friend necklace eavesdrops on your life and provides a running commentary that’s snarky and unhelpful. Worse, it can also make the people around you uneasy.

Apparently Guillermo Del Toro has ruined Frankenstein by… being relatively faithful to the source material.

Oh my.

“What’s your argument against generative AI?”

Do you mean the environmental, economic, social, ethical, cognitive, creative, or practical argument? Because I feel like any one of those, even in isolation from one another, makes using it a non-starter.

Our closer for August is “The Color of Things” by Eleanor Lennox. A piece that gives you a one-sides glimpse into a failing relationship against a backdrop of jungle. Big White Lotus vibes!

SAY GOODBYE TO YOUR MEMORIES, THEY'RE KILLING THE EARTH, ALSO WE'RE BUILDING NEW AI CENTERS feels absurdly farcical and dystopian while perfectly illustrating Stage 4 End-Stage Capitalism in all its dipshit horror.

As someone obsessed with generation ships and space travel generally, this is really cool. Well done to the Chrysalis research team! www.livescience.com/space/space-...
Proposed spacecraft could carry up to 2,400 people on a one-way trip to the nearest star system, Alpha Centauri
The design for a 36 mile long spacecraft, called Chrysalis, includes libraries, tropical forests and structural manufacturing facilities, all supported by artificial gravity.

They keep asserting they're going to put AI in everything, including critical, dangerous systems. Meanwhile, AI is like, "sure, eat those yard mushrooms, the word strawberry has 88 Rs, I'm Mecha Hitler, here's Taylor Swift naked when you didn't even ask for it and she has eleven fingers lol"

Do yourself a favor and read this story! It's so psychologically rich for flash and the ending is absolutely killer.

So excited to share that my story, The Color of Things, is up in this month's issue of FFO!! Also, favorite compliment ever from Rebecca Halsey in the foreword: "If you're a fan of the show White Lotus, you'll enjoy The Color of Things"😍😍😍
