Ed Zitron's Where's Your Ed At The Words of Ed Zitron, a PR person and writer.

Tomorrow’s free 18k word newsletter- The Case Against Generative AI, a comprehensive analysis of a financial collapse built on myths I’ll dispel and the markets’ unhealthy obsession with NVIDIA’s growth, leading to dark, dangerous circular financing reminiscent of Nortel.

What is even the point of this #AI “content creation”.

Its just spam across every channel and medium now. Serving no purpose. Enjoyed by no one. Not even downloaded.

Just a wasteland of AI generated garbage.

The Benefit of the Doubt Big Tech doesn't deserve your grace. Or your forgiveness.

My latest newsletter is about how a credulous media and a trusting society emboldened Big Tech to do serious harm.

And it’s about why these companies don’t deserve our trust or our forgiveness.

OpenAI boosts size of secondary share sale to $10.3 billion OpenAI is allowing current and former employees to sell more than $10 billion worth of stock in a secondary share sale.

The OpenAI employee share sale at the BS $500bn number is now up to $10.3 billion. This is a cashout. This is the thing you do when you do not see a future for the company.

The people saying, "Well, it's losing money now to act as infrastructure later" I think are really confused about how intellectual property works.

The disappointing release of ChatGPT-5 is really underscoring to a lot of people that this technology isn't good enough to be economically sustainable direct from providers (OpenAI), or feasible as a tool/software layer underneath other products (which is even more expensive).

Western University is offering new scholarships of up to 40k CAD for four years to doctoral students who are studying at, have an offer from, or have had an offer rescinded from one of the top 100 American universities.

Come and study with me or one of my colleagues!

I will believe this is #AI based and not just economic downturn when they describe the process they used for determining which tasks and jobs to automate and precisely how they did so.

Newsletter: It's time for a radical new approach to tech CEOs: mocking them, because they talk like idiots and provide little value to society outside of their dedication to shareholder value. They sound stupid, they do nothing, and it's time to fight back.

you need to get to graduate school before you can start producing essays that your professors couldn't write themselves -- that's the *point* of education, you're being worked through centuries of thinking to be able to add to it

As attention spans get shorter, so does the SAT -- and soon the ACT The SAT, and soon the ACT, are changing to cater to students with short attention spans.

We would see SAT/ACT prediction of the criterion of college academic performance become poorer. However #HigherEd is also eliminating the requirement to read long passages. The erosion of intellectual skills will be empirically imperceptible to us.

Thanks #AI

People are going to joke that hurr durr this is how you get SkyNet. The reality is much worse. You’ll get LLMs that hallucinate military decisions.

"...They don’t want to plan their kids’ birthday parties. They don’t want to research things. They don’t value culture or art or beauty. They want to skip to the end, hit fast-forward on anything, because human struggle is for the poor or unworthy."
