*Edit*: here at least, I am clearly not isolated!

Perhaps I am increasingly isolated in holding this position, but I have no interest in reading "AI"-generated slop.

I love reading.

I read people's blogs and toots and whatever *because people wrote them* and I want to read their own thoughts and opinions.

I buy books, and read numerous different authors. I like finding new authors, bringing new ideas, styles etc.

Same with "AI" images. I'd prefer no image at all.

@neil best book you read last year? Looking for recommendations
@sephster @neil I was captivated by Project Hail Mary. I also enjoyed Heroes by Stephen Fry but I still have some pages to go.
@cpy thank you. I read PHM as part of my book club and loved it. Not read Heroes though so will add it to my list. Thanks!
