Unfortunately for them, the editorial/DTC-esque graphic design makes semi contrarian views feel unserious. Shoulda been a word doc

Governance doesn’t have inherent moral valence; it’s a neutral framework for delivering against intent.

AI governance, however, does: LLM accuracy, as a primary measure of how AI fulfills human intent, makes accuracy a moral quality of governance.

To be right is to be good…

Sitting on a stoop watching — *gestures broadly* — Life, is literally as good as it gets

Using your company’s ChatGPT business plan is essentially a consensual forfeiture of your uncensored Google search history to your employer, qualified with a series of prompt exchanges that reveal how dumb you actually are to have needed to search what you searched.

I have a running text conversation with myself. There’s about a 2-second delay between sending the text to me and receiving it from me.

It gets me every time still — the delayed inbound text, rendering me a dopamine-fiending amnesiac, who wonders, “Who Might That Be!”

You know something went haywire in a day when you’re Googling phenomenology and essentialism definitions at 11:30 pm from bed with the lights off

Too much information ~out there~
Not enough time to consume. How do I choose?

[Hollis @hol_for_fun]

Months ago, I went to the bike helmet store and picked up a bright orange Smith helmet. “This is cool,” I thought in my head, which was immediately met with a “Orange? Bold choice.” by the bike helmet store worker. I bought black instead.

Traumatic brain injury/rizz trade-off.

Would likely prefer to find out I’m embedded in any of the following:
- Goop groupies
- “rising sign”-level astrologists
- self-described girlbosses

Everyone on my feed talking Huberman. Must repent for whatever sins I have unwittingly committed to get myself this

Guess we know who won’t be releasing her post-punk take on Mongolian throat singing on SoundCloud in March.

[Hollis @hol_for_fun]

I joined a “play music every day in March” Telegram group. I was expecting what you’d expect: learning some new chords on the guitar, amateur GarageBand mixing. So far we’ve got: shakuhachi flute, Uruguayan bossa nova, didgeridoo circular breathing, glossalia, casual humming…

Sometimes all I yearn for is the safe, dull, mundane, mediocrity of the know & expected. Creativity can be overworked.
