OMAR SAKR Walking to day-care in the genocide The primary selling point of a pram Has never been articulated by an ad. My son yells out his discoveries - Tree, rock, motorbike, cloud, a bee! I walk behind him unseen, grief-struck And let the tears come without fear That my weeping will drive him To worry. O holy carriage, hold fast His wonder, and my wet confession Of this, a father's sole reprieve.

A poem I wrote some months ago showed up at my door today in the first issue of the relaunched Southerly magazine.

A digital poster in the style of a World War II propaganda piece. Isolaed on a yellow background, a normal, squarish, 20-something guy with glasses is sitting working on a laptop. A ghostly figure of Hitler has his arm around the guy and is grinning and shaking a fist triumphantly looking at the laptop screen. On the lid of the laptop where an apple might otherwise be is an openAI logo, bright green, and dripping green ooze down the lid. Text on the poster, in combinations of sans-serif type and brush script reads: Using Generative AI? You’re prompting with Hitler! GenAI is a Fascist Project! Try using your brain instead Don’t surrender your creativity to the tech billionaire’s control

Philip Larkin’s this be the verse mangled into Ozymandias, the text reads They Oz you up, your mandyias. They may not mean to, but they do. They give you vast and trunkless legs A sunken shattered visage too. But they were Ozzed up in their turn By Mandyias upon the sand Who half the time had wrinkled lips And half in sneering cold command. Oz hands on mandyias to man. Like mighty works atop a shelf Look on them early as you can Ye mighty and despair yourself

happy to report that after forty some years i have successfully spelled "guaranteed" on the first try

For me it's the oddly touching reminder that the scene is all about love and support and picking each other up when we fall

Every person who says "of course there are some uses for LLMs" should be forced to immediately list what those uses are, taking into account that:

a) they cannot be accurate and there is no way to make them accurate

b) they have been repeatedly shown to make users dumber and worse at their jobs
