We’re a lightly-organized club for people who like people that like pens, ink, journals, paper, etc. Meets at least monthly. NEXT ONE: 11/25 at Cherry St. Tavern (at 22nd), starts about 6:30 pm.
Over at the Bike Shop, we’re hosting a Pop-UP of everything that ain’t AI: fountain pens, post cards, ink, journals, stationery and so on! Sat+Sun, 10-5. OH, and the incred @phillyprfm is right up the street from us. Hit two shops in one swoop.

Say it after me: Chat GPT is not a search engine. It does not scan the web for information, it just generates statistically likely sentences. You cannot use it a search engine, or as a substitute for searching.
Now. Please never use an LLM for information searches ever again.
