If your position is secure enough to permit it, be the person in the room who says no. Be the person in the room prepared to articulate why your organization has no business adopting AI into its operations, why doing so is harmful.

just saw someone sincerely arguing that they need AI bc they don't have "natural" artistic talent and idk how to make you understand that nobody comes by this shit naturally. it's just...work. it's being bad at it for a really, really, really long time. it's intention, pursued over time! wtf!!!

Relatable. Just brought my suitcase up from the basement and it had a dried out cat puke puddle on it. Good times.

When you know eating a healthy, balanced diet helps manage your chronic illnesses but your symptoms have you feeling like you have a hangover and you crave โ€œjunkโ€ food. #chronicillness #sickofbringsick

Here is something curious: #migraine hit this evening (no surprise given the drastic shift in weather), but the visual aura was not the usual bright white. It was the blue and yellow/gold of the Toronto Sceptres jerseys! #PWHL on the brain? ๐Ÿค”

Opinion | Thereโ€™s More to Selfies Than Meets the Eye Is a selfie embarrassing? It depends on how you think about it.

The New York Times has installed *Visual Studies*, a series that explores how images move through and shape culture.

Great to see this kind of public attention! Hopefully the academic field with its research traditions is reflected in future contributions too.

Don't do this, people! Make your own art. AI is straight up stealing.

 A split screen image. On the left is a closeup of a grey and white lop eared rabbit. On the right is a closeup of a bald man with a dark elegant moustache. The man wears a fine suit with a bow tie. The rabbit had markings that make it appear he has an elegant moustache. The man is the actor David Suchet playing the role of Agatha Christieโ€™s Poirot.

Is it just me, or does my rabbit look like Poirot? ๐Ÿ˜† ๐Ÿ‡ ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธ

Quebec riding of Terrebonne flips to Liberals after recount shows candidate won by single vote | CBC News After a judicial recount, sources tell CBC News the Quebec riding of Terrebonne has flipped to the Liberals, who have beaten theย Bloc Quรฉbรฉcoisย by one vote. The result means the Liberals have 170 seat...

The Terrebonne riding just had a judicial recount and the Liberals ended up winning by a single vote. I don't want to ever hear anyone saying their vote doesn't matter. Democracies are led by those who participate.

Unsolicited writing advice, no. 489:
You don't need a paper qualification to be a writer. Some courses may give you confidence; or access to other writers; or teach you the nuts and bolts of how to build a novel. But the piece of paper itself doesn't count for anything. Only what you write counts.
