Telling the story of Generative AI and how it will change humanity

So smart, so plugged in, so utterly gorgeous. Nina is my go-to source for info on Generative AI. I plan to steal from her on a regular basis.

Ed Bott's READ ME

This newsletter has moved. Please go to edbott.news to sign up.

Ed's an old friend and a smart guy. Or maybe a smart friend and an old guy. Anyway, you should read him. Especially now that he's ditched Twitter and his ZDnet column.

JOG Blog

By Jason O. Gilbert

It's a current events newsletter written by me, comedy writer Jason O. Gilbert. I have written for The Daily Show for many years and now I am writing this newsletter.

A funny dude writing about things in a funny dude-like way. And nothing at all about Jogging, thank god.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar shares thoughts about sports, politics, and popular culture and how they define America.

The 'Cap' is one of the most lucid writers out there on any topic, not just sports. And at age 75, he's still going strong.

Read Max

By Max Read

Explaining the weird new future, one newsletter at a time. Subscribe for a twice weekly delivery of internet culture, mega-platform grotesquerie, crypto conspiracies, deep forum lore, fringe politics, and other artifacts of what's to come.

Like a curio shop dedicated to weirdness and cultural depravity. Max is an excellent writer and quite funny.

Ask E. Jean

By E. Jean Carroll

For 27 years at ELLE magazine I answered sticky questions. NOW, I'm asking the questions, and YOU---you brilliant person---are solving the world's problems by answering them!

The ne plus ultra of relationship advice columnists. Elizabeth Jean has been doing it since the invention of the steam engine, and she has no equal. Also, screamingly funny.
