Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns.    100% of his salary is paid by WA state.    Elon fired him. Share his story.

Serious question: is it better to dump my Twitter acct because Elon Musk is trying to ruin democracy or better to stay here and resist fascism by supporting politicians like Bernie Sanders and thinkers like Cory Doctorow NONCONSENSUAL BLUE TICK?

🎉 Congrats to Knox students who presented at the Rockford University conference! 🏆 Prize: Marli Messner 🏆 Prize: Astrid Brunk 7 students shared powerful work on mysticism, spirituality & gender. Big thanks to Prof. Scott Harris for leading the trip! 💜📚

Joyfully attended the Venture Boldly campaign event at knoxcollege1837. There are amazing things happening, and I'm excited to launch great programming next year: an artist-in-residence, speakers on AI and civil rights, and student-faculty research collaborations. #knoxproud

Excited to see my latest essay out in the journal #Religion. It's on #AI, human-robot interaction, and that kind of thing. I wrote a blog about it: robertgeraci.com/2025/05/12/jeo…

Very much in agreement with Gary Marcus on this. The federal gov't is not doing trustworthy work to regulate AI and certainly shouldn't handcuff state gov'ts (whatever happened to "states' rights Republicans"? oh, yeah...that was always a trick). garymarcus.substack.com/p/when-it-come…

In March, I was privileged to join the knoxcollege1837 prairie burn. Many species depend on such work: the prairie experiences its resurrection through human collaboration. I'm experiencing the same sort of growth. Students and colleagues have been a joy. I am grateful.

The relationships we build using digital tech are social, romantic, economic, political, artistic, and more. And many include, Robert M. Geraci (Robert M Geraci) writes, black boxes of uncertainty. buff.ly/mrLJTKT

A new blog post about how I should publish my new book, Futureproofing Humanity: robertgeraci.com/2025/06/20/on-… Should I #selfpublish or find an #agent or go straight to a #press? I'm definitely not going to an academic publisher. I'm tired of those: they charge too much.

I sure wish I disagreed with Gary Marcus about this, but I don't: garymarcus.substack.com/p/1984-but-wit…

There's something wrong with me: two posts in one week. Here I am talking about OpenAI, Karen Hao , and religions of #ai (or #agi if you prefer). robertgeraci.com/2025/06/24/rev…

A quality read on #gpt and #llm -- substack.com/home/post/p-16…

I went blogging again, this time about the retcon of #agi. It's happened before to #AI and it'll happen again. The #singularity probably isn't meaningfully nearer than it was. robertgeraci.com/2025/07/11/law…

I encourage folks to give this a look, and then their support. If the powers-that-be (like Lightstorm Entertainment) are going to pretend to speak on behalf of #indigenousrights and communities, they should put the money right back where their mouths are. chng.it/qVByhXdtqc

Am I the only one who looked at this image and just saw sexist BS again? Why is Hinton a concerned man while the robot in the corner is an evil woman? Can't we do better than constant #sexism in #AI? We better if we hope for anything like #AIethics. robertgeraci.com/2025/07/30/sex…

After reading Kashmir Hill and Dylan Freedman in The New York Times today, I'm thinking about how closely the sycophantic #LLM delusion spirals match #qanon delusions. It'd be good to know what's in those training data! robertgeraci.com/2025/08/08/cha…

Kinda tired of people pulling some crappy thing that #GPT produced and saying "now let me explain why #superintelligence is not around the corner." The same people could have read pretty much anything I ever wrote and known (a) why some people believe it is and (b) why it isn't.

As if people don't do enough stupid things, we need to accelerate that exponentially with machines that do stupid things. Can we please work on coherent approaches to AI? garymarcus.substack.com/p/llms-coding-…
