On how the man who played Leatherface in "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" taught me the meaning of life: sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/my-friend-le…
Over the past 6 months, I had the opportunity to try out lots of different mahjong rulesets. Of course I played lots of WRC rules Riichi, M-League rules Riichi, and various 3 player rulesets. But I also got to play JPML-A rules, MCR ("standard" Chinese rules), Taiwanese mahjong…
IMHO - Open AIs strategy is to spread their faulty GPT chatbots into as many parts of the US & UK govts as possible so that when the AI bubble bursts - govts will keep paying & bail them out. Govts should renege on their deals w/OpenAI now, before the AI bubble bursts.
Being seduced by the AI business pitch takes 1 hour: "We will put AI into everything in your organisation to improve all productivity". Investment in the LLM tech takes a few weeks to organise and - few months to integrate. Realising that the AI tech you invested in creates…
Yes, we are at peak AI. But the AI companies are attempting to push their faulty models into all aspects of govt and industry to spread out the impact from the AI bubble bursting.

GenAI isn't just a technology; it's an informational pollutant—a pervasive cognitive smog that touches and corrupts every aspect of the Internet. It's not just a productivity tool; it's a kind of digital acid rain, silently eroding the value of all information. Every image is no…
I remember being excited about AI. I remember 20 years ago, being excited about neuroevolutionary methods for learning adaptive behaviors in video games. And I remember three years ago, mouth watering at the thought of tasty experiments in putting language models inside…
In 1990, Kyrgyz writer Chinghiz Aitmatov popularized the term "mankurt": a former human with an enslaved mind. Big Tech wants to make us mankurts and AI is their weapon. sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/soul-strippi…

Check it out. Almost everyone in the major media is missing the real story around GPT-5. The real story is about how so many people (even big fans of OpenAI) were disappointed. And it’s about how that may well spell the end of scaling mania. And it’s about how the premature…
Knowledge is knowing a Tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad. Philosophy is wondering if that means Ketchup is a smoothie.
How to survive the crash of your own flawed product (GPT5). Push it into every govt. department at low prices, so that when your flawed product is exposed, those govt bureaucrats won't admit they've foolishly invested in bad tech & will keep paying. Govt. may even bail you out.

Was my book FOR EMMA actually an advert for the EMMA AI companion app that's just launched? Or is it a coincidence?
