Sitting with my spouse, us both enjoying our morning coffee, me playing my word games, him scrolling Imgur
He turns the volume up on his phone and taps his screen
‘Never gonna give you up’ starts playing
He sighs and grumbles “bastards”, before turning his volume back down

Video gamed too hard this weekend. I need an additional day off to recover.

I think we all need to unite and refuse to let the ✨ emoji mean AI
Like they couldn’t even generate a unique symbol for their theft machine, just had to steal a fav emoji 😩

Next time someone tells you that AI is "a tool".
Call them a tool instead.
If people tell you gen AI is a tool rather than a replacement for human creativity, show them this new data from Harvard Business Review:
- ChatGPT reduced writing jobs by 30% and coding jobs by 20%
- AI image generators reduced image creation jobs by 17%
- These numbers are not rebounding
- The effect is bigger and faster than with other forms of automation
It’s self-evident that generative AI competes with the work it’s trained on, and the people behind that work. But there is now a growing body of evidence to support this.

Do you plan to ring in the new year in a crowded setting? Wear a mask to help protect yourself and others from COVID-19, flu and RSV! 😷
Well-fitting masks, such as N95s, KN95s or KF94s provide the best protection: on.nyc.gov/covid19prevention

The old year is dying. The new world struggles to be born. Now is the time for silly hats.
You ever answer a reference question that’s typically outside the scope of your service but feel real proud you found the answer anyways?
Great way to end the year.

Microsoft and OpenAI's definition for AGI has nothing to do with intelligence. They simply agreed they'll have reached AGI when they develop a system that can generate $100 billion in profit.
Anyone still buying the AGI hype after this is officially a sucker.

we already have an epidemic of students turning in essays they didn't write about books they haven't read, and if teachers are now using AI-generated courses we may as well shut down the schools because no one here is teaching and no one is learning.

Want to stick it to the man AND do something meaningful for the victims of private healthcare companies? Wear a mask.

important relationships with colleagues in libraries and in the comics industry. In order to send two comics library workers to ALA 2025 and ensure the sustainability of this important grant, we need to raise at least $12,000.
