Merriam quits the high-stakes world of lexicography to teach at a college in Springfield, MA…where Webster just became the head librarian.
She shows him that ‘love’ isn’t that hard to find…if you know where to look it up.

Merriam, a career-oriented lexicographer from the city, returns to her small town for the holidays and meets Webster, a ruggedly handsome librarian, who shows her the true DEFINITION of Christmas.

I heard there was a secret cord. You plug it in and you meet the lord. But you don't really care for Christmas, do you?

Sure, they've made an environmentally catastrophic mass hallucination disinformation plagiarism Clippy that will destabilize the world, but also their other goal is to replace human workers entirely and let us humans starve. A boycott of AI is the most important boycott of your entire life.
"All of this falls apart if humans don't adopt the tech. This is why you've seen Meta cram its lame chatbots into WhatsApp and Instagram. This is why Notepad and Paint now have useless Copilot buttons on Windows. This is why Google Gemini wants to "help you" read and reply to your emails."
Analysis: OpenAI is a loss-making machine, how can it survive?
Don't call it a bubble! Loss-making monster OpenAI is on the hook for $1.4 trillion (with a T) in compute commitments. How can this go on?

It’s so cool to have hitched your wagon 20 years ago to an industry that was booming beyond anyone’s expectations and have it turn out to be stripmined and utterly hollowed out by Shareholder Value, and every other industry you could slot into has been, surprise, hollowed out by Shareholder Value

Here’s the thing: the luddites were right. The Industrial Revolution did flood the market with poorly-made, irresistibly cheap goods while exploiting and impoverishing labor to make a handful of people fabulously wealthy.
Whilst it is inevitable to romantisie handmade items, I don't think it is worth disregarding a game that you enjoy because of it. If you had lived during the industrialization, would you have disregarded machine made garments as well? Or will you stop using your iPhone because AI is used to code it?
