Something snapped into place in my mind. There is an anti-AI position that has absolutely nothing to do with luddism, or any other anti-tech position.

AI is cognitive suburbanization.

Think about it. Architecting everything so that I can't do even the most basic thing without gratuitously using a big, bloated, planet-destroying energy hog- one that *in theory* saves time, but actually just wastes it. Reducing all my options to the same generic, regurgitated, cookie cutter slop.

Wow... email from Bass Pro Shops (of all places) (!!)

Glad they are speaking out.

If you’re interested in the Tour Divide, Josh Ibbet (who has raced it himself) is posting daily analysis, and is receiving voicemail from some of the racers en route, which he plays back as part of his show. It’s a cool way to connect to the event. Here’s his most recent update. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YidHy_Tp1Lk
