Increasingly, there is a disconnect between established operational/corporate systems and the new AI-enhanced powers of individual workers. The over-production of documents is just one symptom. It's clear that organizations are st

You can get a new panoramic film camera for $69 - the Sprocket Rocket [1]. It makes images with grungy lomography charm - edges are soft but center is surprisingly sharp for a plastic lens. I really like the look of the images it produces.

I thought I was broad-minded enough to read Crash - I wasn't. I did enjoy other Ballard books.

It's poorly written, perhaps aimed at people already in the loop - would benefit from an AI edit.

I asked an LLM to create a plan for a 'digital rebirth' in order to minimize privacy harms. It's a lot of work, but increasingly: a worthwhile endeavor.

> with the AI and against it I assume that a significant proportion of writers have worked this out via trial and error: AI can be highly useful, but you still have to work very hard on the text, maybe even harder.

Congrats on moving this concept forward. Can you say: what are the the alternative approaches to this problem?

The rational response to document overload is to mostly ignore it. Workers and managers in organizations are being overwhelmed by large numbers of documents because it's so easy to bang something off that's 'about right'

Simple: tell them to ask their LLM about it ... "Tell me about all the potential pitfalls of blindly trusting LLM output, and relate a couple or three true stories about when LLM misinformation has gone badly wrong for people."

So looks like one broad conclusion is: the memory foam type of ear bud tip is normally toxic, so go for medical grade silicone replacements. There are options available on major e-commerce sites. The ones I choose have a stainless steel noz

Yes, I wonder how much of the academic doomerism is warranted, or maybe the professors are lacking in imagination? I guess it's possible that AI offers incredible learning opportunities and at the same time is going to destroy the educ

I found a way to 'de-smell' LLM copy: tell it to take a second pass that processes the text output with the William Burroughs cut-up method. Works well for a small subset of use cases. Presumably the smelly AI text problem is just
