It’s been clear for some time now that the endgame was some kind of fusion of the AI chatbot and OnlyFans. The automation of thought and consciousness meets the automation of human sexuality. Total addiction to the mirror.

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right. Now that we have

“Scarcely a week goes by without an ‘open letter’ circulating in which hundreds of lecturers are calling for the scalp of a heretical co-worker.” Great to see our sold-out conference — Navigating Academic Freedom: Perils and Prospects — getting a mention in the Evening Standard!

I’m not going to get caught up in the rest of the Canterbury Cathedral graffiti discourse, but the exhibition text looks to me like a flagrant collection of ChatGPT-isms. “Delve,” “profound,” dependent clauses everywhere. The distinctive aroma of automated cant.

Look at this pathetic, resentful display. Then search for the #FiLiA2025 hashtag and see what they want to destroy. Even if you dislike feminism, you can see the contrast and it's not flattering.

Transactivism's habitual response to people who believe different things to them. There is no other activist movement that behaves more like raging, resentful, tantrumming toddlers - prove me wrong.

Trans activists have smashed one of the large front windows of the Brighton Centre - the venue where 2500 feminists are meeting this weekend to talk about male violence, misogyny and the like. Why can't EVERYONE see this movement for what it is?

I see some Wikipedia critique going on. My own page is surprisingly ok but was set up originally by transactivists. They said I was 69 years old (at the time I was 48). At one point an elderly prof at my old workplace took me to lunch, kept insinuating I would be retiring soon,
