I love how the weird as literary genre broke containment a while ago and it's thriving around the world.

One of the tragedies of surrendering education to so-called AI is that our students (fellow people, rather) will lose the ability to name what is *absent*âof course a pillar of critical thinking. So-called AI is all about plausible, likely presence. That's why "creativity" is one of their key terms.
