It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

Do you you think there's a sort of... content creation apocalypse coming? Like this sort of thing:
1) People have limited eyeball time. You can increase it marginally, but certainly not an order of magnitude above what it is now (people have to sleep!)
2) Media creation has gotten ever easier

Wary of speaking it into existence but between Trump's debilitating case of Permanently 1989 Brain Disorder and given the other creeps he's appointed, I feel like we have to consider the possibility of Karl Malone getting appointed to this job.

i have come to feel that both of them (and 'pundit genre' they are a part of) are eating off of a fundamental revulsion not so much at the technology but the habits of mind of the people pushing them.
as an LLM skeptic, it is pretty annoying that two of the biggest LLM skeptics in the media (Ed Zitron and Brian Merchant) neither know anything about LLMs nor are particularly interested in them
