A screenshot of Google's AI Overview answer to the question "is haggis an animal". It says "Yes, the haggis is a small, furry mammal native to Scotland" and goes on to give the typical "asymmetrical legs" details.

It really is fascinating how overt it now is that there are certain - really not controversial - ideas that you aren’t allowed to say on television.

Any merit in the drivel I write comes from learning painstakingly how to write essays.

To assay - to test - exactly what I thought and knew about a matter.

Great essayists - Woolf, Orwell, Bacon, Montaigne, Hazlett - are utter intellectual joys as you read how they test themselves on topics too.

"Keep your side of the road clean." In a world of dolourous news, all you can do is find one small thing - then try to fix it. And so me and the British Society of Magazine Editors are launching this - to find the next generation of writers AND PAY THEM. Screw you, AI. We still believe in writing.

Every day, working on the new Broken Veil, the software I’m using offers to do something to speed up the workflow, to do bits of it for me, and I keep thinking β€œno”, because it’s really not a huge amount of effort to do these things myself, and it’s all a vital part of the process.

(1/11) If you live in NY, you’ve probably started seeing a new warning: β€œTHIS PRICE WAS SET BY AN ALGORITHM USING YOUR PERSONAL DATA.” This mandatory disclosure went into effect late last year, and it’s the first attempt by a US state to grapple with a new generation of surveillance pricing.
