Amen! 🙌
I will never use LLM for anything to do with my writing. Even my research is driven by good research practice, not AI. Why would I? I like the work. If you don't like doing the work, ask yourself why you're not actually doing something you do like to do, instead.

Very disappointed in the new Nebula Award eligibility information from SFWA that allows partially-generated works to be on the ballot. See 9.11.2.

International conventions should not be held in the U.S.
NEW: Five years of social media history is only a fraction of what the US Government will shortly demand of overseas visitors.
The full requirements will end tourism in the United States.
Below is the full, mind-blowing list.

“Why are folks getting dumber?” Because they don’t read. “Why aren’t men as romantic & poetic as they used to be?” Because they don’t read. “Why are people so vulnerable to propaganda?” “Why is everyone a conspiracy theorist?” Because they don’t read. Because they don’t read.

Every writer I know, every artist I follow, is in the fucking trenches trying to survive this shit. GenAI is not the future because if it keeps going there is no future, and even if it was that would be no excuse.

I bought a Mac so I could use Vellum. If you create ebooks, it will relieve your life of HUGE amounts of stress. If it’s on sale today, and you’ve got the cash and the inclination, GO GET IT. 😄
if you're a Mac user and an indie author, vellum.pub is life-saving software for formatting ebooks (and print books) and it's 30% off today

There's a DogRegret subreddit?? What kind of weirdo regrets getting a dog? I mean, would you regret getting gold? No, of course not. It's the same thing. Both can change your lives for the better. :D (Currently accepting donations of both dogs AND gold.)

It’s widely known (and, I think, pretty uncontroversial) that learning requires effort — specifically, if you don’t have to work at getting the knowledge, it won’t stick.
Even if an LLM could be trusted to give you correct information 100% of the time, it would be an inferior method of learning it.

Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

"I won't read your books anymore" is not the threat you think it is, particularly when you follow a piece of shit president and decent people don't want to share oxygen with you never mind entertain you with their art.
