As someone who's both, the same goes for artists who use gen AI to write their newsletters. There is strength (and moral consistency) in solidarity
I’m amazed at some authors complaining about AI for writing but then using it for art🙃

HIRE REAL ARTISTS!! We’re all in this together ffs!

pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.
A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.

Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."

Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

A transphobic lesbian author you may want to avoid
I saw this video (I think she's deleted it now) and it was pretty disgusting

Rosalind Franklin died at 37 of ovarian cancer attributed to radiation exposure from the methods she & her assistant used to photograph a cross-section of the DNA double helix.

Meanwhile, Watson won a Nobel off that work & survived to the ripe old age of 97 by simply: stealing those notes!
