Writing Slowly

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.

@writingslowly.bsky.social The patterns belong to Anthropic or OpenAI etc, not the software itself. I’m suspicious of attributing personality to AI because it may lead to offloading ethical decisions to AI, and to the owners avoiding responsibility. In this sense the question is ‘who is home’.
