OpenAI says it will start experimenting with putting ads in the free version of ChatGPT.
This could be the start of AI companies data-mining their users the way social media companies do – and taking it a step further. buff.ly/q6d0qMq

arXiv will no longer accept review articles and position papers unless they have been accepted at a journal or a conference and complete successful peer review.
This is due to being overwhelmed by a hundreds of AI generated papers a month.
Yet another open submission process killed by LLMs.
Incredibly embarrassing for The Times, and a reminder for all journalists that, in an age of ChatGPT (which DeBlasio used) you unfortunately have to be suspicious of all quotes via email
"If you're a billionaire, why are you a billionaire?" Billie Eilish speaking directly to Mark Zuckerberg, as she donates $11.5m to food poverty and climate justice organisations.

Friendly tip to writer ppl who don't know: Share your shit shamelessly on here. It's super easy to miss bc of chronological feeds.

Witnessed a reader laugh...! I'm so happy 🙂✨

A black-and-white comic shows three RoboBees, small flying robots with wings and antennas. One RoboBee is perched on a plant, quoting Shakespeare: "To be or not to be, that is the question." Another RoboBee flies tilted, asking, "What's up with her?" A third RoboBee wobbles mid-air, whispers "existential crisis." The caption at the bottom reads: "FACT: RoboBees have a light-sensitive sensor to keep them upright."
🌟Published an article on Harvard's rObObee, complete with a drawing by me. Bee-cause, why not?
