I feel very cautious about AI and currently refuse to use it myself because I really dislike reading AI content. I think it’s obvious when someone has used AI, unless they’ve edited it substantially.
While minds more lofty than mine can make much more eloquent arguments for or against, let me posit my humble case – that the problem with AI lies in both how it can amplify or magnify.
In my work I see a yearning for connection, community and creativity. Buying the bookshop is an optimistic investment in that belief.
Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about crossroads – both as the intersection of choice, but also a point of no return. It’s a space rich in folklore.
