There are a lot of #scifi #authors around here. This is a thought-provoking video on the state and future of AI. As a science fiction writer myself, I'm still processing mine. What are yours?

Because their sole game plan is to throw up sprays of bulls#!t and blame Democrats for the chaos. They have no other desire, strategy, or purpose.
It’s hardly a surprise that the GOP finds itself back where it was when Kevin McCarthy was still Speaker: in disarray, unable to move bills, and with a government shutdown looming. So what’s the game plan? Or is there one? My analysis in today’s piece. open.substack.com/pub/statusku...

Why is Scrivener's dictionary such crap? It must have a vocabulary of all of 1500 words, AND it doesn't seem to remember words that I tell it to learn. Is the user dictionary limited to each individual project? Come on. It's been around long enough to do better.

Please remember: the reason that Republicans focus on 15 weeks vs 12 weeks vs 6 weeks is because it's a lot easier than talking about raped children and cancer patients being denied care, and women going septic
