Honestly, I am absolutely disgusted by academics suggesting that AI can do the reading and writing for you. At a certain point, what you're bragging about is fraud. And in a broader sense, what you're contributing to is the erosion of knowledge and the destruction of trust in academic publishing.
"Our govt is treating the suffering of the Iranian ppl as a backdrop for our own entertainment, as if it’s just another piece of content to be swiped thru while waiting in line at the grocery store. But, in the end, we lose our humanity when we are thrilled by the destructive power of our military."
THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!

No-kill shelter in Charles County needs urgent funding to remain open. You can donate directly on their website humanesocietycc.org/donate/
What I don't understand about climate doomers is how they refuse to accept the fact that every single fraction of a degree of warming we can prevent, whether that be now or in the future, will save lives and ecosystems. Also, adaptation exists, so there's no excuse to give up on activism.
GREAT new resource from us:
You can now flip through the financial disclosures of Trump officials.

A photo of little white-muzzled one-eyed chihuahua-pug mix Bentley wearing a black&red flannel-design bandana which says “Be my valentine” witn a paw print that has a little heart in it underneath, standing in a pet store looking at you.
Bentley at the Senior Dog Sanctuary of Maryland is still hoping you’ll be his valentine, b/c some things are timeless!
Take Bentley. (please!) He’s 12 years old but active as a puppy, with a sparkle in his eye. He also loves mealtimes and walks! Looking for 23lbs of love? Adopt! (See below)👇 1/2

The Einstein AI debacle feels a bit like a scale model of everything commercial LLM right now: tool announced with hype, press leaps onboard, panic/ outrage ensues, founder melts down and deletes. (With a side of well actually, the underlying technology could do what it promised, with some effort.)
