The new OpenAI creative writing bot's "short story" has the phrase "democracy of ghosts". It's the sort of phrase that would make me stop and admire it, if I were reading a human author - which, it turns out, I was, because it's from Nabokov's 1957 novel "Pnin".

Rereading this long 2022 piece by James Pogue. He’s not the only one to limn the intellectual/ideological framework for the forces now empowered, but this is detailed, nuanced, and sourced. www.vanityfair.com/news/2022/04...

I do not see how we’re going to have productive academic discussions of "AI" until we stop accepting the marketing that lumps all machine learning methods & technologies into one amorphous thing called "AI"—so we get minimalist & maximalist responses that echo that marketing—we don’t have to do this

My thesis about "Digital Scholarly Editions Beyond Text" has now been published as an OA monograph: doi.org/10.11588/arthistoricum.1132.

It covers multi-transmitted picture / film works from medieval to modern times, modelling theory, #DigitalHumanities theory and a bunch of other stuff ✍️

Does anyone have any recs for feeds one should follow as a DH / digital humanities person on here? I looked around but couldn't find too much (happy to follow ppl but was wondering due to the lack of hashtag implementation).

I feel like such a spam bot trying to follow everyone I followed on T**tter at once while having zero followers and posts of my own here 😂 If there's a better way to do it, I missed it.
