@derekberes.bsky.social3 of the big 5 book publishers are tripling employee workload while demanding they use AI without author consent. Guess who profits?
@derekberes.bsky.socialJournalist @sgcarney.bsky.social joins me on today's Conspirituality Book Club to discuss Andrew Huberman's new book, Protocols.
You might be shocked to learn he gets a number of things wrong...
@derekberes.bsky.socialMeanwhile, I showed up at Costco for my vaccine yesterday only to find out they were out of my preferred shot. (Luckily, I was able to get a Pfizer vaccine.) Supply chains for vaccines have been suspect in Oregon this entire season. I WONDER WHY.
@derekberes.bsky.socialI knew we'd get here at some point in this administration.
@derekberes.bsky.socialOur government is kicking millions off of healthcare plans (besides the millions more who can't afford a plan) while Kennedy is funding a trial in Africa that willingly withholds a successful vaccine from babies.
@derekberes.bsky.socialI wonder what's happened in the last 2 years to cause such a drop...
@derekberes.bsky.social"Mi Mujer" has been on many a playlist.
@derekberes.bsky.socialNicholas Carr likens LLM writing to JPGs becoming blurrier as they’re copied and shared on the web. They lose clarity with each iteration.
@derekberes.bsky.socialCan chatbots really displace the guru economy?
Some wellness influencers are willing to take a risk.
@derekberes.bsky.socialI wonder if Jonathan Jarry is mentioned on tmw’s episode 🤔
@derekberes.bsky.socialWellness influencers are losing their only strength to AI.
@derekberes.bsky.socialAnd @nicktsergas.ca !
@derekberes.bsky.socialIf it’s a story about a fossil fuel heiress and an anti-vax crank, you know I’m quoted in it 😂 Great reporting by Walker.
@derekberes.bsky.socialBlind Melon, ‘94, Rutgers. Amazing band. Ham sandwiches were involved.
@derekberes.bsky.socialThreads mistaking Jay Shetty for Kash Patel is something 😂 Shetty is awful but he’s not THAT bad.
@derekberes.bsky.socialIt’s cool Tempo, I don’t need any room (which is exactly what he’s thinking).
@derekberes.bsky.socialCanadaland recently hosted anti-vax contrarian doctor, Peter McCullough, in what he claims was a focus on media, but which really turned into a science-denying sh*t show.
@derekberes.bsky.socialJungle blew the roof off last night in Portland.
@derekberes.bsky.socialMAGA Drazen would be horrible for Oregon. The problem, as often happens with Democrat leaders, is that Kotek has been completely unremarkable (looking at you, too, Keith Wilson).
@derekberes.bsky.socialYou can tell how much the MAHA movement values women (aka MAHA Moms) by looking at the speaker list for this week's MAHA Summit: 49 men vs 7 women.
