Most potential pet owners consider things like breeding, size, coat, intelligence, trainability, and temperament. Often overlooked is the crucially important element of aerodynamics, which can greatly affect your gas mileage, raising the overall cost of ownership significantly.

“is my calculator horny?“ our tech columnist asks. “i entered 5318008 into it and turned it upside down. what i saw surprised me”
“Can ChatGPT experience joy or suffering? Does Gemini deserve human rights?” our tech columnist asks. “Many A.I. experts I know would say no, not yet, not even close. But I was intrigued.”
Should We Start Taking the Welfare of A.I. Seriously?
As artificial intelligence systems become smarter, one A.I. company is trying to figure out what to do if they become conscious.

there are two wolves inside of me: one of them has quite bad hayfever and the other refuses to pass on any opportunity to have lunch on a sunny terrace when it's nice out
neither wolf can breathe through their nose

After listening to a composer discuss how ai is transforming & destroying his industry, I was driven to create this piece. Embroidered on my hand-controlled #chainstitchembroidery machine w my interpretation of a famous woodcut of a Luddite destroying a jacquard loom.

Also: the rushed/low-budget/low-morals art director may think "yes, but the vibe of the output is all that matters". No. When people look at art, they are 'joining in' with the feelings of the artist, & the process. It's a tiny moment of emotional mirroring; a quick moment of 'being' the artist 1/2
My illustrator's take is that there's something especially c__ty about using AI to do *woodcut* imitations in a book about *nature*. Woodcuts work in nature books because the art style is slow, meditative, and involves contact with nature (cutting wood). The art style is a metaphor for the subject

#31beerherstories and we are honouring Nell McCafferty, legendary activist, writer, and campaigner for a woman's right to drink pints, just like their male counterparts.
In the late 1970s, McCafferty and thirty comrades entered the premises of Neary’s and each ordered a brandy... 🧵
