A perfect post rounding up all the reasons you shouldn't use GenAi, including the most important one.

Even if all these facts about AI were *not* true, it would still be destroying us. Why I refuse to use ChatGPT, and how I believe it's making us stupider.

Here's why I refuse to use genAI. www.amy-colleen.com/p/even-if-al...

I actually saw someone say that the Billy Graham rule would be better than dealing with everything happening with Swalwell and plenty others. And that is some bulllllshit. The problem with both these approaches is DEHUMANIZING WOMEN. We deserve neither to be shunned nor molested! Get serious.

Much has been written about what constitutes bad parenting and much anxiety has been wrought over the mistakes made by otherwise well-intentioned mothers and fathers, but tbh it all seems like such a waste sometimes because you can spend the whole day doing your absolute best and your children will

Anybody remember how when the Reynolds pamphlet came out, it disqualified Hamilton from the presidency? I mean I don't remember it because I wasn't born yet, but it would be cool if we could bring back some pretense of moral accountability for politicians.
