Maybe I'm short handed

Antü isL
I never gave a TED talk, and I thought you should know.

Sometimes I have no idea what to write in this newsletter. I just write. I don't care that I'm writing next to nothing of relevance, only that I words and sentences construct some sort of cryptic window into me. That I am openly vulnerable and human. Perhaps not as much as some people, perhaps so much more.
I read and did a lot of things this week, but it just created a swirl in my brain. I'm having trouble putting my thoughts together. I don't have things to share, really, and I don't have much to say.

So I'll say nothing much today. Maybe next time.

Did I ever tell you my Masters is summarised "MAME"? I always liked that. Spoken like "maim" but writing it just now made me want to throw in a couple As and D to become "madame". I studied media pedagogy which is like...basically just philosophy about technology. I can apply my formal education to literally anything. I mean, maybe you wouldn't often see a biologist crossing domains into, say, auto mechanics, but an educator definitely would and could.

I straddle several domains. Non-profits, media, education, communication, open source, ecology, leftie-fueled, punk rock activism. Art. I'm a generalist and a specialist in generally lots of things. I'm just pointing that out to qualify myself to say stuff about AI. I'm getting extremely bored with the fright/ hype 🥱

"[AI Models are] about concentration of power in the hands of people, about reproducing systems of oppression, about damage to the information ecosystem, and about damage to the natural ecosystem" Emily Bender

Maybe I need help?

That's it today. Thanks for reading, still. You're a steady crew of a readers, I appreciate you more than you know.
