My name’s Richard. I live in Sydney, on the traditional land of Bidjigal people of the Eora nation. Here I write about writing and reading (and what I do when I'm not writing or reading). I'm writing slowly but may at some point speed up. Connect with me on micro.blog or at Mastodon @aus.social@writingslowly. On Reddit, I'm @atomicnotes.
Sci-fi writer Ted Chiang has words of wisdom about so-called AI consciousness:
💬 “it is fundamentally dishonest to have a machine emit many categories of sentences, including any sentences using first-person pronouns.”
I said this exactly three years ago. We’re still being gaslit by machinery that calls itself a person.
