    In the Skeels household, Dolly is best known as the woman who sends us a book every month (through the imagination library) and the person who “built” Dollywood. I now have occasion to explain what I failed to explain previously.

    Had to have a talk with my 4yo, and I foolishly chose to explain certain recent events in terms of doggy heaven but did so without realizing that I had never properly introduced the notion of regular heaven. This resulted in many questions which I was ill-equipped to answer.

    Two comments, one economic and one epistemic: 1) people being unwilling to pay good money for ai slop is a separate and much more pertinent “fact of modern life”. 2) i most certainly CAN doubt that his op-ed is his genuine opinion.

    In a statement, WSJ opinion editor Paul Gigot defends Druckenmiller's use of AI to write Monday's op ed, saying "AI is a fact of modern life," and "nobody can doubt that his op-ed is his genuine opinion."

    Last week: guy at Chipotle didn’t charge me for double meat. Probably just forgot. This week: same guy. No charge. This was no accident.
