So helpful. At our regional www.nwscience.org we talk about those topics over beers with authors (in town for readings.) Doing it Wed. with @ferrisjabr.bsky.social and did with @zoeschlanger.bsky.social last month. Lately, talking to authors about their publicity strategies is fascinating.

How sad is it to think that someone can say "send happy birthday greetings to all the people in my X folder." That's how I felt when my Dad's secretary picked the card, and believe me. I could tell. Soon, #AI will reduce human interactions (not simplify) our lives.

Can I get a blocking algorithm that prevents me from seeing the beautiful photos of everyone who is traveling, without them knowing that I'm not looking at their castles and waterfalls? It is #calming for them to post, but ... surprisingly not calming to see so many.

Everyone in academia should be paying attention to this and thinking about how they/we can fight back against these bad faith attacks. As a scholar in an adjacent field targeted by some of these same bad actors, the "if you don't fight back, they'll go away" strategy is just not an option.
