What are you reading?

Just picked up a copy of Margaret Atwood’s Negotiating With the Dead: A Writer on Writing from Austin Public Library. If you don’t already know, I tend to read more “books about writing” than I do in all other genres put together 😂 It’s probably not healthy to read so many books about writing, but I can tell you with certainty that I can’t stop/won’t stop. I’m only 20 pages in, but I can…

The internet was supposed to be a place for connection and creativity. But it’s being flooded with AI text, algorithmic hostility, and platforms turning against the creatives who made them vibrant in the first place.

Tech giants have gone all-in on AI at creators’ expense. Google’s AI is baked into everything, prioritizing machine-generated slop over human work. Microsoft Word now suggests AI-generated “improvements” on every new line.

The Trump administration’s massive AI investment means there’s little incentive for tech giants to slow down the exploitation anytime soon. (Meta? Just caught training AI on 81.7 TB of pirated books.)

Big tech isn’t waiting for legal mandates to censor content—its platforms are restricting creative expression to appease political and corporate pressure, manufacturing consent in real time.

"if you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life" except i do love writing, and yet every time i open my document, i feel like a victorian child being sent to the coal mines, so where’s the lie.
