As AI continues to cannibalize artists’ and writers’ work and degrade copyright protections, the least we can do as colleagues is acknowledge each other’s work and properly attribute our sources. Our work and our readers are so much poorer when we don’t.

How does Radical Embodied Cognitive Science relate to Marxism?

In a recent preprint, I discuss this question at length, drawing on work by @tonychemero.bsky.social, @sorenmau.bsky.social, @edbaggs.bsky.social and many others.
