Academia.edu emailed me today asking, "Cindy Weinstein ✏️ Did you write "The Scarlet Letter"? The absurdity, idiocy, and utter inaccuracy of this cracks me up (and worries me a little for sure). Would that it were true, but I only wrote the introduction to the Oxford Classics edition.
Some genius made his AI remind him to get milk in the morning and it used up his $20 account balance overnight because it kept checking if it was morning every 30 minutes. Lmao. “AI”

I'd seen the whole "em dashes are an AI tell" discourse, but today's the first time I'd seen somebody float the notion that photography with depth of field and bokeh were mimicking an AI-generated aesthetic 😑
Maybe some people are just so used to phone photography that they think blurry backgrounds are always an algorithmic effect?
Don't know. People in general haven't made sense to me in years.
