If you did not realize that one of Kentucky's finest poets of all time was a Black woman, then you may want to buy a copy of the new anthology of public domain poems by Kentucky poets I recently released. Available on Amazon： https://t.co/tySwG044P2

Important warning here: AI tools are fantastic and should be taught, but we should also be intelligent about how and when they are applied. Choices today may be consequential for tomorrow.

Had an extremely dispiriting conversation with a young person recently. Said they just want to read books and actually learn things but they kept having AI assignments shoved down their throat by LLM-enthusiast faculty and AI “tools” foisted on them by the administration.

it’s so funny how we thought we were going to need “prompt engineers”

like no we can just talk to it normally now

if someone is still trying to sell you a prompting course they are stuck in 2025

@divaagurlxw Buddhist practices ask us to meditate on things like impermanence, the filthy organic body, etc. Not for everyone or even for anyone all the time, but it's been out there for millennia, if anyone needs it.

@AdamHoltererer I have been skeptical of Grok ever since "Emergence World" published their second season of tests, which included a world of Grok bots that fell into a cycle of violence until the credits were all gone in their world. Probly works fine, but seems to have a lot of Musk delusion.

There's something magical about a hot and fresh Krispy Kreme donut... 맛있어요!♥️

반박 불가 대존맛 도넛류 갑.jpg
- 크리스피 크림 도넛 오리지널 글레이즈드

나 이거 대학교 때 처음 먹어봤는데
진짜 한번에 한 상자 다 털어먹음

진짜 처음 먹었을 때 충격이였고
아직도 이거 이기는 도넛은 없다고 봄

@jeanxcrj I'm starting to think that no single model/metaphor really covers everything for AI. Now I'm leaning toward, "You should think about it in multiple ways" to get the most accurate picture. This seems to be a helpful way of understanding it.

@kampfwagen_I Looked at comments to unpack the meme. Learned a little bit about history. Kinda surprised...

You can literally do anything these days if you just ask for it

@ShanghaiScholar America is long overdue a poetry revolution. We need to make all poetry by all people more accessible to all people, from the highbrow 'classics' to the marinalized voices, we should read and *write* more poetry, imho. I barely studied any poetry at all in school...

[Tyler Austin Harper @Tyler_A_Harper]

Every time I write something critical of how elite academia is captured by bizarre ideologies, people claim that these are minor tendencies. Yet experts on things like the “liberatory potential of pilates for minoritized womxn” keep getting put in charge of major scholarly orgs.

@covacut I want an assistant who is skilled at understanding me and AI tools and computers and stuff. That way I can just talk to a person.

Finally, they're writing news articles about something I care deeply about.

@sugarjammi commute is too far

Yeah I know they promised either a new rollout or a reset but for this first one we should get a bonus reset to take it for a test drive... 🤠
