authors you have the chance to do the funniest thing right now
AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action

I made it to Cincinnati via train! It takes sooo much longer than plane, but it was a truly lovely trip and is a far more reliable form of transportation at the moment. I am looking forward to attending Books by the Banks tomorrow. Here is the schedule for this free event: booksbythebanks.org

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

When a chatbot gets something wrong, it’s not because it made an error. It’s because on that roll of the dice, it happened to string together a group of words that, when read by a human, represents something false. But it was working entirely as designed. It was supposed to make a sentence & it did.

Less than a week to take advantage of our October eBook special. I heard you like short stories.
It's October! Hurrah!
I've specially curated 5 of our spookier titles, and discounted the eBooks to just $2. Grab a couple, or all 5 for $10. It's your choice.

And a slice of the profits from every purchase you make with them goes towards indie bookshops, meaning they are one step closer to buying a rocket, renting Venice, or just paying the rent. 5/?

Doing "normal" mundane things during a crisis is a coping mechanism so you don't get overwhelmed. Grounding yourself in these activities is healthy.

As a Libro.fm acolyte, it is my duty to inform you that audio that's purchased from your favorite indie bookseller sounds better and is also more emotionally fulfilling than the same audio purchased from a megacorp that's assisting the authoritarian federal regime.

billionaires should not be allowed to exist because the downside of "one of them loses their mind" is simply too dangerous for a functional society

The whole point of democracy is so one person's derangement does not become everybody's problem. It's social hygiene. The fact the richest men in the West are a mix of grotty twelve year olds and deranged apocalypse fanatics is a problem, and we should be honest about it.

#AceWeek
Men's voices are often overlooked in this community. I write about my own experiences to show other men out there who are ace/demi or think they might be ace/demi, that they are not alone. They are not broken or weird for not feeling what the men around them seem to feel.

It's #AceWeek and I wanted to talk a little bit about demisexuality - or at least my experiences with it, as a demisexual lesbian!
Because I see it as a sexuality that gets misunderstood a lot, either as being not really part of the ace umbrella or basically the same as asexual...
