      I honestly do feel ridiculous on this subject (ignorance), but just in case you didn’t know about it:
      http://blog.stayfreemagazine.org/ (and yes…I am a technological dyslexic and haven’t figured out how to post links neatly in comments, sorry about that). But just wanted to let you know about this site, I’ve been a fan for years and I haven’t seen you mention it, so in the spirit of ‘net art’ just wanted to give them a little ‘shout’. Their work is excellent and definately a great source for things like Lawrence Lessig a.s.o. They document what is going on in the ‘net art’ world so well, bring out good debate on intellectual property rights and well…net art! I love this site, so just thought I’d mention it! They have a great sense of humour that I love!

    25 years since September 11

    I’ve been reading through my blog posts on September 11, 2001 and the days that followed. The things that stand out to me – in addition to the horror of the attack itself – are how massively we (or at least I) used the web to understand what was happening, […]

    AI-generated stories have longer endings than human stories

    My colleague Jessica Witte has just shared a preprint where she compared the emotional arcs of the stories we generated using gpt-4o-mini to those of human-authored (pre-2022) stories from the subreddit r/WritingPrompts, conveniently gathered in this dataset. She found a distinct difference in the endings of the LLM-generated stories: both […]

    How to peer review a paper in 2026

    Dorothy Bishop, a psychologist, wrote a useful list of what reviewers need to look out now that so many papers are bad science that looks good thanks to LLMs. Read her whole blog post, she explains it well, but here’s a brief version because I’m pretty sure we’ll be needing […]

    AI and algorithmic culture

    “So what if it was ChatGPT? It *could* have been true!”

    I recently read a good article on the different kinds of truth a language model operates with by Luke Mann, Liam Magee and Vanicka Arora, Truth Machines: Synthesizing Veracity in AI Language Models, but despite its lovely typology of truths (consensus, correspondence, coherence and pragmatic) it doesn’t help me with […]

    AI shimmer and sparkle

    I have this hunch that sparkles and glow and shimmer are somehow a point in the latent spaces of LLMs that have more connections than you would expect. Perhaps their connotation to magic and to the unknown matches some of the mystique of genAI? Or perhaps these words are used […]
