I really don't think we've barely begun to come to terms with how tech companies have actively decided to destroy the basic infrastructure of human information to juice their share price
case study of how a non-meaningful tweak to a prompt can result in dangerously wrong output. Search A: prompt has typos in “association” & “blood clots.” AI output has medical misinfo (Yaz&Yasmin ARE NOT drospirenone-only). Search B: same words, same order, correct spelling. Output factually correct

This looks really interesting - it's a shame the younger child is still home this week. He does not tolerate the use of internet enabled devices, unless it's to watch children's TV.
Also, there’s a conference on Vice Epistemology X Situated Affectivity with a fantastic line-up happening Sep 3-5 (and it’s hybrid), see poster or link:
