On the day the Stratemeyer Syndicate fell, Melody McGinn finally got her hands on one of their much-coveted Shares and framed it on the wall in her bunk.
squinch (mastersquinch.github.io) was kind enough to immortalize it for me - complete with C-suite signatures and singed edges! #OVER/UNDER

As a child, scriptural condemnations of false teachers, idols, demons, illusory paths to eternal life, had always struck me as the most provincial and historically contingent part of religion, of little value to people as modern and wise and free as I thought we were. Can see now that I was wrong.
The app Text With Jesus uses artificial intelligence and chatbots to offer spiritual guidance to users who are looking to connect with a higher power: on.nbc10.com/7XM8xrf
People can text with Jesus on a controversial new app. How does it work?
Artificial intelligence app Text With Jesus lets users chat with biblical figures and it is raising debate over faith and technology.

sort of incredible to read a review that doesn't just made a vague nod at AI being bad, but actively reckons with the ways in which falling obsessively to AI usage actively obliterates the artistic intent and integrity of the work you've made.

For @samsorensen.bsky.social's #OVER/UNDER I created WEATHERVANE, an in-universe themed combat simulator. Using it, our faction was able to predict the outcome of any battle with a high degree of confidence. It helped us price mercenary contracts and go into any combat knowing the expected outcomes.

Four hours after the end of #over/under and people are still in the After/Party section, secondary voice chats, private DMs, and three-to-five separate servers talking about the game, the characters, the players, the moments. What an incredible experience. What a ride. A game-changing kind of month.

I suspect that the techbros who read the SFF stories about robots rebelling decided that the moral of the story was "design them so they won't" and they think that's actually possible and desirable.
side point but the idea that if you make a human grade robot intellect it will do whatever you say without protest seems underexamined
Even if you were willing to buy that an LLM/Gen AI tool has human-like intellect, you’re still left with the fact that an LLM doesn’t NEED a job to remain alive under capitalism, but a human does.
morality-wise, surely many would agree that humans should thus be given priority for jobs due to need

But it *does* feel like a reworking of cyberpunk for the 2020s: a vision of the future not as a unified aesthetic but as this crazed sensory overload, a hundred different stories and worlds fired at you at once, leaping between crassness and warmth, insincerity and sincerity.
