For the evening shift, I spoke with a number of #BlackLibrary authors about their thoughts on Meta’s “use” of their work in training its AI. Their thoughts- and why we should be alarmed in my latest for GH.

Reposts gratefully appreciated. 🤘

And it is SUCH a great episode! This year's focus on sex-in-history has been a real treat.

Gonna fangirl a bit over Dr Kate because, as you yourself know (having guest-read on the episode about that horny poet), she is amazing at this.
