cogdog on In Chapter 32 of the “You Cannot Make this**** Up Book of Internet Stupidity” I submit for your disapproval perhaps evidence that GPT AI is in use already for marketing pimple brains. It was more than 10 years ago I began some relentless debunking of the oft-cited 60000 times faster assertion — “Researchers at 3M […]
cogdog on As it happens while looking for one thing (now forgotten) in my piles of web stuff, I stumbled across a directory of audio conversations I recorded in 2007. Just sitting there in a web directory. It reminded me of one of the classic early Web2.0 Storytelling stuff I used to trade with Bryan Alexander— I […]
cogdog on I already took a blog dip on the biggest craze in education since the ditto machine, but as you cannot take a scroll in social media and the news without tripping over 5 takes on ChatGPT… well, I could not help myself. Well, I could, but I did not. With all the efforts to take […]
cogdog on I am going to regret this, but 8 years after a tortuous mess of an extraction from (yecch I just hate typing in), well that “professional” social network that rhymes with “StinkedInn” I have been foolish enough to step back in there. But there was a work thing that really demanded me to see some […]
cogdog on Given there is always a kerfuffle of understanding the use of various Creative Common licenses, I am dubious about efforts to even add more to the pile (I have a sarcastic sweet spot for WTPL). But I am trying to at least be aware of stuff like TakeNode). I came across this via some stuff […]

cogdog on Oh noes! A favorite thing was broken today. The subject or object of a number of posts here I think of as the Opener of Glorious Rabbit Holes is the Library of Congress Free to Use Browser Extension. Each time I open a new tab in my browser (like 50 times a day), rather than […]
cogdog on As we must do in 2023, a disclaimer comes here that no imagery nor writing here was generated by any large language models or statistical data system. It’s all me, with my typo-prone keyboarding and propensity to make up titles. Yet, I am tempted to consult my conjured expert ChadGPT because I operate by natural […]
cogdog on I am forgetting who’s blog post I read recently asking about doing blog posts by email… ah yes, thank for Inoreader, it was JR Dingwal who mentioned this in a new post about revitalizing blogging. Part of me was tempted to respond to JR and say Try Posterous! (old timer internet joke) Posterous was a […]
cogdog on I’m playing with words. As usual. I ain’t no chat ai thing just a frail human. “Right” here is not in the sense of correct or justified (although someone on the internet might be correct at this very moment), but right as plugged in to its essence, the original wizards staying up late sense, as […]
