Considering how far behind AI discourse still is in Japan, where a lot of people regard it as benign, it's so nice to hear a dude of his stature take such a principled stand. There are others from his generation who haven't (I'm looking at you, Kazuma Kaneko... π©), so you can't take it for granted.

It's been 20 years since these Tomonobu Itagaki pictures were published in the German magazine Maniac (hi @tapirfortuna.bsky.social), and since everyone is doing their Itagaki memoriams and tributes I'll make the photos public for everyone to use.

Having been married for 3 months now, there's a cycle of thoughts that are like "Oh wow, I'm married" >>> "I'm with a man who loves me just as much as I love him" >>> "He loves me?!" which then becomes this moment of clarity for me and I feel like the luckiest guy in the world every time it pops up
