The Braves organization has made it extremely difficult to actually see the Braves on TV in the Atlanta market … so let me know what happens 😭

And today someone here shared the converse with filling in probable words describing events rather than subtracting them: an AI story about events in a town including fireworks at 8 pm … except that town has always had a daytime July 4 celebration and no fireworks.

That’s it, that was the formative experience that has shaped how I experience every AI text since then. Something I saw with my own eyes and can never forget was not probable enough to be included in the AI summary.

When GameChanger produced the AI recap of the game, that triple play was not referenced or mentioned or noted and certainly wasn’t summarized. If you went by the AI recap, the most notable and statistically improbable event in the game simply did not happen.

Until the game where a remarkable thing happened - a triple play. Second baseman caught it in the air then he threw to short (at 2nd) and I think the other kid was tagged at third but not sure. Anyway it was the only triple play I ever saw in my life before or since. And guess what

Then they partnered with an early AI sports content producer to “write” an AI summary of each game. You could see the formula like “Reed Smith took the mound for the Chargers” and other such verbiages. But it was cute and seemed to follow the events inputted by the dads

GameChanger was the platform of choice for my kid’s travel baseball team. A dad would enter the game events, and people could “watch” a rendering of the game events just after he entered the events.

This is what I mean about even summarizing isn’t to be trusted because it’s probabilistic with other similar words

In the spirit of sharing good news, I’m happy to say that as of July 1, I now hold a named chair as the Jack E. Feinberg Professor in Litigation. This is a fairly big deal for legal writing professors, who often aren’t eligible for these things. I’m grateful to my dean for supporting this.

I’m still stuck on the brain worms as an excuse not to pay alimony As someone who regularly makes up fact patterns for LRW and exams, I’m weirdly grateful for more proof that NOTHING can be fairly criticized as “unrealistic”

Is that best practice though? If saying they made a mistake, the original document with the mistake seems like best evidence or whatever. The analysis provides that the mistake was relevant and telling and ironic etc etc

I keep on thinking how this is an important substantive point that is going to be very hard to cite. I did make a perma.cc of the updated version with the little pdf post-its noting the changes

Didn’t know about this one but will take a look. Possibly of interest: Luddite history and current gig economy analysis - Brian Merchant, Blood in the Machine. Definitely debunked what I thought a Luddite was

It’s not a source. It has no author, it is not published, and it is not stable over time. It can be cited like “facts on file” but as stated elsewhere … why.

But it might tell you the race is 200 or 400 or 120 because those are all probabilistic answers about races that happen at the track
