NYC. Emmy-nominated writer. Poet. Former rave promoter. A tiger once roared at me, angrily, while I wore a tuxedo. This blog is a response to that moment.

This is my favorite personal fitness AI hack: For MyFitnessPal tracking on the go, take a photo of your meal > upload to ChatGPT > “estimate calories in this meal for MFP” > MFP > Quick Add Boom.

I would love nothing more than to use one AI, but... - Claude & Anthropic aligns with my values - Google AI has Google Workspace integration - Grok & Grok Imagine leads image & video reasoning - OpenAI & ChatGPT leads copy writing and editing reasoning

ITA🇮🇹 and DOM🇩🇴 are obviously worthy opponents, but USA 🇺🇸 vs VEN🇻🇪 would be an incredibly emotional and dramatic matchup. #WorldBaseballClassic

The The New York Times' streak of totally clueless, unearned confidence continues. Look, like any healthy relationship, we love Conan O'Brien *for* his flaws. If the last 30+ years has taught us anything, Conan does not fail. He emits selfless, stupid joy and his fans, like me, bask in it.

Olaf is fitting, as the central conceit of his character is existential crisis. The biggest laugh in Frozen for me is when Elsa meets Olaf for the first time and asks, “You’re alive?” And Olaf responds, “I think so.”

We live in an age where things I thought were super-duper illegal, just happen out in the open all the time. Hope this is a sign of change. -- Attorney General Mayes: “No company gets to decide for itself which laws to follow.” techcrunch.com/2026/03/17/kal… via TechCrunch

As a writer, I can’t explain the profoundly weird anxiety I feel over the possibility people might think my work was made by AI. Lately, I find myself editing for "humanism," which has to be a species first.

Never in my life have I been more excited for Easter candy. Cadbury Eggs, pastel jelly beans, Reese’s peanut butter eggs, those chalky little chocolate eggs… I might even eat a Peep, which is saying a lot.

That thing AI does that you hate? “It’s not just nice-to-have—it’s essential.” It’s called an antithetical statement. It’s a rhetorical device that stands in for supporting evidence. The evidence is there—it’s just walled off. (Try challenging a chat bot on its sources.)

From an epistemological POV, I believe intelligence combines *equal parts* experience and calculation. IMO, calculation supremacy is to AGI what experience is to, say, enlightenment. Ergo, AGI is not intelligence, in my view. Reasoning engines use probability as shadow puppets.

I don't care who knows it. I have an unnatural love for 'Ahnighito', the 34-ton meteorite on display at American Museum of Natural History, thanks to a 2020 episode of The Bowery Boys Podcast podcast. In 1904, it took a team of 30 horses to haul the 4.5Byo space rock up 8th Ave to the Museum from Brooklyn Navy Yard. 🌠

Researching the Solow Productivity Paradox, the generational lag between tech investment and ROI... And, while I'm researching, I'm constantly being distracted by Gemini "follow up questions" (ugh!) and interruptions from social media. Suddenly, it all makes sense...

Junior creatives beware when someone says, "this should be quick." True creative work doesn't care about our schedules or our expectations; sometimes things take exactly as long as they need to take. In a service business, communicating this takes grace—both within and without.
