It’s telling that a lot of the AI “help you edit your video / podcast” tools have no idea what to do with human laughter. They sometimes mute it or amplify it in weird ways. Or cut it off awkwardly. Sometimes they leave it alone entirely. But rarely do they get it right in my experience.

I want to believe AI slop is just harmless goofs, and while it’s early days on OpenAI’s Sora social app, I agree with JA Westenberg: If You Let Your Kid Use Sora, You’re A Bad Parent.

“These apps are not neutral. They are not tools that can be molded by “responsible” use.”


My number one tip for anyone starting a podcast: Remember to unmute your mic before you start recording.


Instead of delighting in the creativity of humans, let’s all stare at AI slop mixed with AI slop advertisements.

A tweet by andrew wilkinson reading I think OpenAI just killed TikTok. &10;&10;I’m already laughing my head off and hooked on my Sora feed. &10;&10;And now, the #1 barrier to posting (the ability to sing/dance/perform/edit) is gone. Just 100% imagination. &10;&10;RIP theater kids 🪦@Awilkinson on Twitter’s profile. Co-founder of Tiny w/ @_Sparling_&10;.

We need a Slow Horses / Bad Sisters crossover season where Slough House tries to figure out how Bibi’s wife died and Roddy thinks Becka is super into him. #AppleTV


They paved paradise and put up a parking lot and a high rise and more home developments and a high school maybe a gym or pool and stuff.

#Selfie a day for a year, day 44, Oct 1, 2025 edition.

“Just wait until you hear how all those quotes from Jane Goodall were taken out of context.” - Hour two of a Joe Rogan podcast I assume??
