We live in a perilous time when you can learn so much that is true in the right places and so much that is lies in the wrong places. Media literacy is key, and we need the humanities for that.

Modern existence has become engulfed in sludge.

@antonissideras 😆 Respect. That’s dedication!

When they remake one of your favourite games of all time, but it gives you a blinding headache and there are no FOV or motion blur settings on PS5.

[Josh Rodda @JoshMRodda]

@antonissideras It’s always disappointing, having to put aside something good for accessibility reasons.

[Reid Southen @Rahll]

This essay on AI is almost cathartic in the way that it captures and confirms so eloquently how so many of us feel. I think Mr. Chiang has gifted us with something that will be referenced and talked about for a long time. Send it to everyone you know.

@LiamRSharp Completely missed this, and it’s not listed on Forbidden Planet, Amazon, or eBay in the UK. Hope I haven’t missed the boat. StarHenge was amazing.

Finally Rishi Sunak keeps saying he is fed up of people talking down Britain. Well I am fed up of people talking down universities- which are one of the things the UK can be genuinely proud of.

@jsecker Please do! I think it’s a fantastic idea!

[Josh Rodda @JoshMRodda]

Some brilliant speakers at #LILAC24 have sold me on the myriad benefits, accessibilities, and expediencies that careful use of AI will bring. But I am still not sure when conscious thought (and its expression) became such a burden that we should want to outsource it. 1/2
