"It works, but I hated it." #AI is the new dumb factory work. Good-Bye Coding!
"There's a fundamental problem with these tools...: the tool requires expertise to validate, but its use diminishes expertise and stunts its growth. How does one become an expert? There are no shortcuts; there is only continuous hard work and dedication. I was once told of writing, great writers learn how to break the rules in new and ingenious ways by first learning the rules."

"I fear the fallout of ideological purity even more. Time and again, people fall victim to the transformation of a stance on an issue into a holy cause, a flag to rally behind, a group from which to exclude The Other. Purity is a dangerous idea—historically, more dangerous than technology's capacity to change labor. Indeed, purity is a weapon used to divide labor against each other (see: race vs. class in the United States, 1865 - present)."
