if the world moves towards optimization and people are beginning to ai summarize articles instead of reading through them, then in that case would the effort to result ratio of manually writing articles decrease? in that case would it be better to just generate…

Until photography, painters competed largely on the verisimilitude of representation. Photography destroyed art by making artists switch to absurd images often driven by social contagion.
Now imagine what AI will do to literature.

We’ve hit this odd moment where folks are using AI to write book-length articles and then viewers are using ai to reduce it back down to the size of a tweet.

🚨BREAKING: Microsoft Research + Salesforce just dropped a paper that should scare every AI builder.
They tested 15 top LLMs GPT-4.1, Gemini 2.5 Pro, Claude 3.7 Sonnet, o3, DeepSeek R1, Llama 4 across 200,000+ simulated conversations.
Single-turn prompt:…

The Creative Act by Rick Rubin
night walk blink, pretty simple book with only one message imo
also, was somehow reminded of The Alchemist in the lesson of listening to the language of the world
main takeaways:
- find your creativity in nature and the everyday life
- disconnect to reduce bombardment of information to let your senses flow
fav quotes:

This is because they receive higher quality genetic endowments from screened donors. This is combined with rearing by strongly positively selected…

The part nobody talks about from this paper: the authors explicitly state optimism is modifiable. This isn’t a personality trait you’re born with. Cognitive reappraisal training, morning sunlight for cortisol rhythm regulation, deliberate breathing protocols for vagal tone, structured gratitude practices. All of these shift the prefrontal cortex patterns that determine where you sit on the optimism spectrum.

Most people will read this and think optimists live longer because they eat better and exercise more. The study says something wilder.
Lee et al. controlled for smoking, diet, exercise, alcohol, depression, BMI, and socioeconomic status. The longevity effect…
