incredible what can happen when working class young people in this country are actually given access to the arts

If you're using AI to write essays, eulogies, a text to your wife, I do think less of you as a person. Ceding your mental and creative abilities to a machine is an embarrassing thing and people should be ashamed to admit doing it in public.

The more I use ChatGPT the more I think it just can't be good that a lot of people are getting accustomed to having conversations in which they're endlessly congratulated on their great questions and repetitively told how brilliantly insightful and clever they are

I wrote this about the foolishness of conspiracy theorists, anti-vaxxers and enemies of democracy - those who imagine themselves the most fearless critics of modern civilization are often its most coddled children thetimes.com/comment/columni…

The funniest books I read this year: • The Restraint of Beasts by Magnus Mills — deadpan, surreal book about three livestock fencing contractors who end up killing a lot of the people they work with. • The Caravaners by Elizabeth Von Arnim — a pompous German Baron goes on a disastrous caravan holiday in Edwardian Kent. Viciously funny, I wept with laughter. • Excellent Women by Barbara Pym — her best comedy of manners. A mild-mannered vicar’s daughter becomes embroiled with her glamorous new neighbours. • Cold Comfort Farm by Stella Gibbons — a sophisticated teenager is orphaned and has to go to live with her hapless provincial relatives in rural Sussex. • The Brothers’ Lot by Kevin Holohan — the monks at a Catholic boys school in Ireland are desperate for a miracle to elevate their founder’s profile & smooth his path to sainthood. Kind of Kingsley Amis vibes.

Lots of fun writing for this brilliant podcast!
