Since ChatGPT was released, I've found it helpful to ask "what problems does it solve?" when talking about whether/how AI is useful. The claim that it's good for creating a first draft seems to stem from the idea that staring at a blank page is a problem that needs to be solved/1

Really enjoying this book right now. This will be a thread of observations and stuff from it, out of order. Currently listening about the Tahitian intellectual/navigator/adventurer Tupaia that asked Cook to bring him along on his voyage, helping Cook navigate & chart the Pacific.

Hab heute "Sea People: The Puzzle of Polynesia" von Christina Thompson gehört (@audible_com) Großartig - so muss ein populärwissenschaftliches Buch sein. Man gleichzeitig über die Besiedelung und die Erforschung der Besiedlung Polynesiens. Absolut Hör-/Leseempfehlung
Approximate tie: LOVE AT FIRST SPITE, Olivia Dade SEA PEOPLE, Christina Thompson both read about three weeks ago.
Okay I can't believe I'm gender-segregating this question (I'm sorry, Alice Paul and Susan B. Anthony 😭) but a genuine inquiry for MEN only: what was the last book you read that was written by a woman? Can you share the title and approximately when you read it?
@sewistwrites Currently rereading both Justice Hall by Laurie King and Sea People by Christina Thompson. Both great books.
@cathompsn @sewistwrites I am a mature single woman and recommended your book to my son who works in Singapore. 👍
@cathompsn @sewistwrites I have read both of your books multiple times and each time I find something new to enjoy in them. Looking forward with hope for another book from you.
@cathompsn @sewistwrites I found your first book in a round about way. Rugby made me a fan of the All Blacks which introduced me to the Maori people. Curiosity made me learn more about the culture. I found your book while browsing in a bookstore. Had to buy it. Inspired me to travel to NZ. Thank you
