At risk of flogging a dead horse: this whole letter is a reminder that the creative process is an end in and of itself, and vital to self-actualisation. You can’t experience BECOMING, as he puts it, by outsourcing it to ChatGPT.
In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice.
KURT VONNEGUT - born 103yrs ago today - was the only one to respond.
His reply was a doozy.

tbh I think nostalgia is at a point where "lost adventures" from the Cold War period would do "boffo box office numbers"
No one wants to watch a spy thriller set today; the world is too depressing (and yes, I'm saying that as someone who came up under the constant threat of nuclear annihilation)

This isn't remotely hard.
Either lean into the fan theory that "James Bond" is a cover that gets passed from agent to agent, or just start setting these back in the 1960s when a character like Bond made a little more sense.
There. Mail me my check.

James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”
Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:
“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

As we learn more and more about the costs associated with GenAI, I continue to wonder how institutions and their leadership decide that yes, incorporating anything OpenAI produces into the lives of educators and students is worth the harms.
"In an internal memo from September, CEO Sam Altman said that OpenAI’s “audacious long-term goal is to build 250 gigawatts of capacity by 2033.” If Altman achieves this goal, OpenAI will need almost exactly as much electricity as India’s 1.5 billion people"

Senate Dems were perfectly willing to ask us to sacrifice. But one weekend of work and flight delays were simply too much for them to bear.
The whole "fight" was just a little pageant to get them through the election.

Hi, I'm on SNAP. Stop speaking for me. The Dems made my life measurably worse by caving, and nade other lives even worse than mine. More people will die because they caved.

There will be some "Wow you can't make these people happy" sentiment but what's really happening is the Dems are beginning to reap the consequences of not really believing in anything. Choreographed maneuvers, too clever by half talking points. People have just had it

"Per compliance policy, certain AI-generated fields cannot be updated by clinical staff" is a managerial decision that will lead to prolonged suffering and preventable death. Having to escalate these fuck-ups to be reviewed by higher levels within the bureaucracy is a waste of time and resources.

To be a U.S. Senator is to be an institutionalist. Even Bernie Sanders cares more about his role and friendships in the senate than he does about his ideological project. If ideology came first he would lead the charge on ousting Schumer. But that’s his friend.

Analysis | Yes, Democrats won last Tuesday's elections by double digits. However, they did not win them by triple digits. The time had come to cave to Trump.
