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.

Sam watching helplessly as Frodo starts to identify with Gollum, a weird, transparently insane bald freak in a diaper who eats live birds and mutters about murdering Sam and Frodo all the time, was a mood without a strong modern parallel until people started falling for AI.

So many arguments needlessly prolonged by someone reading off an AI summary to support their point, followed by 5-10 minutes of people looking up the source to debunk it. It doesn't even get famous people's height right half the time - we don't need to go into why I know that.
With the AI Google summaries, people aren't just cherry-picking the failures. The only time it is 100% is when there is an extremely easy and well-known answer to your inquiry. If it's anything you'd actually need to dig to find, it will hallucinate a fake answer basically every time.

We already have 1000+ reasons to hate """artist""" James C Mulligan (see below), but it was extra enraging to see him stealing and taking credit for the work of actual Bambi artist and all-around Disney legend Tyrus Wong, so here's a mini Ted Talk 🧵

I like and admire critical thinkers just as I like and admire saints.
But if someone announces themself in their bio as a “critical thinker” I will block them just as fast as I block anyone who announces to others that they are a saint.

Mom said I was one of 3 Labor Day babies in the maternity ward named Adam. 30-odd years later I met an Addam, so named (he was told) because there were too many Adams at the hospital. A quick confirmation later, I apologized for being why he'd had to spell his name to everyone he ever met.
