In addition to the (very good) points being made here, the numbers also support it. If 100 people stop paying for chatGPT openAI's revenue goes from $2083333974 that month to $2083333174. When the money they save goes to pay an independent artist that artist could go from making $3900 to $4700

It's not enough to be against AI, you need to be pro art. You need to be a champion of the art you love, you need to share that passion and joy, and do what you can to support the artists who make it, because it's not enough to hate AI, to hate what it's doing to art and media; you gotta love.

I knew this was true, but I assumed it'd remain subtext. It feels sort of moustache twirlingly evil to directly admit "we've done our best to slurp up all the knowledge so we can sell it back to you"

They stole the internet’s knowledge and all the work that went into it and they want to sell it back to us for a fee. What a business model.

"History is written by the victor" implies the converse "The victor is whoever writes the accepted history" Good 🧵on the civil war here.

That effort succeeded with the Compromise of 1877 & the institution of Jim Crow. Shortly thereafter Professor William Archibald Dunning established the revisionist history/historiography that would become the Dunning School of American history. 3/

In addition to just being unthreatened I think they're domesticated into some of these risks. Had someone do a favor for me once bc of a long-term business relationship w/ family. Spent a week trying to find the scam since it rang so many alarms. If that's how people usually treat you though...

Dodo Theory: straight cis white men from nice families are the worst at threat assessment because they are subject to fewer threats than everybody else. They’re flightless island birds who are vulnerable to unexpected rats. Unfortunately, most US government intelligence specialists are dodos.

Ahh, so these are the vaunted Morning People I've heard so much about

I had my own uncle (who lives in another state) tell me I shouldn't complain about the rate of housing growth in Brookline because "the people who live there" decided they didn't want it. Like where do you think I live bro?

This morning I was chatting with a friend about a common dynamic at community meetings in our towns: Residents getting up to speak and listing off their townie bona fides, because in their mind unless you've lived there for 40 years and have family going back 3 generations your voice doesn't count

Who first figured out that seasons are flipped in different hemispheres? Like did we have to wait for Eratosthenes to figure out the axial tilt thing? Or did some Polynesian sailors put it together 600 years before that?
