Finding love is hard. For a while, dating apps seemed to make it easier, putting a city’s worth of single people in the palm of your hand. But AI has cast a paranoid pall over what can already be a suboptimal experience. If you get a message that feels a little off, it is hard to know whether you are flirting with a bot—or just someone insecure enough to use ChatGPT as their own Cyrano de Bergerac. In frustration, my friend Lonni has started picking up women at the nail salon like it’s 1997.

Or, in the midst of an emotionally fraught conversation with a friend or family member, a text might read strangely. Is the person on the other end using AI to compose their messages about the fairness of Aunt Beryl’s will or the future of your relationship? The only way to find out is to call them or, better yet, meet them for a coffee.

Or maybe you want to learn something. Many of the internet’s best resources for getting everyday answers are quickly being inundated with the dubious wisdom of AI. YouTube, long a destination for real people who know how to repair toilets, make omelets, or deliver engaging cultural criticism, is getting less human by the day: The newsletter Garbage Day reports that four of May’s top 10 YouTube channels were devoted to AI-generated content. Recently, the fastest-growing channel featured AI babies in dangerous situations, for some reason. Reddit is currently overrun with AI-generated posts. Even if you never use ChatGPT or other large language models directly, the rest of the internet is sodden with their output and with real people parroting their hallucinations. Remember: LLMs are still often wrong about basic facts. It is enough to make a person crack a book.

The internet’s slide toward AI happened quickly and deliberately. Most major platforms have integrated the technology whether users want it or not, just at the moment that some AI photos and videos have become indistinguishable from reality, making it that much harder to trust anything online. Over time, LLMs might get more accurate, or people might simply get better at spotting their tells. In the meantime, a real possibility is that people will turn to the real world as a more trustworthy alternative. We’ve been telling one another to “touch grass” for years now, all while downloading app- and website-blocking software and lockable phone safes to try to wean ourselves off constant internet use. Maybe the AI-slop era will actually help us log off.

Even before AI started taking over, the internet had been getting less and less fun for a while. Users have been complaining about Google Search degrading for years. Opening an app to get a ride, order takeout, or find a vacation house can be just as expensive and effortful as taking a taxi, calling in a delivery order, or booking a hotel once was. Social media is a grotesque, tragedy-exploiting, MechaHitler-riddled inferno. Where going online once evoked a wide-eyed sense that the world was at our fingertips, now it requires wading into the slop like weary, hardened detectives, attempting to parse the real from the fake.

Nevertheless, as AI companies build browsers and devices that keep users tidily contained in an endless conversation with their own personalized AIs, some people may spend more time online than ever. Its accuracy aside, AI is already valued by many for entertainment, practical help, and emotional support. In some extreme cases, users are falling in love with chatbots or drifting into all-consuming spiritual delusions, but many more are simply becoming thoroughly addicted. The internet’s new era may push AI skeptics to spend less time online, while another group ramps up their AI-mediated screen time. That split might have implications for the internet’s culture—and the culture at large.

Even for those who run from the slop, the internet is already so woven into every part of our lives that going cold turkey is pretty much impossible. But as it gets worse, the real world starts to look pretty good in comparison, with its flesh-and-blood people with whom we can establish trust, less overwhelming number of consumer options, slower pace, and occasional moments of unpredictable delight that do not create financial profit for anyone.

I have been experimenting with being less online since 2022, when I quit Twitter. As soon as I got through withdrawal, I could feel my attention span start to expand. I started reading books again. Like a lot of people who left social media, more of my socializing moved over to group chats with people I actually know and in-person get-togethers: quick coffees and camping trips and dinner parties. Remember dinner parties?

Later, I quit shopping online, and soon realized that I didn’t need most of what I had been buying. The majority of the stuff I actually did need, I could get at the grocery store and my local hardware store, which, like most hardware stores, carries tons of things besides wrenches and bolts.

Online shopping might have once been more convenient than schlepping to a store, but I think that’s no longer true in many cases. Last winter, when my feet were chronically cold under my desk, I could have spent hours researching space heaters online, trying to guess which reviews were real and which were fake; placed an order online; possibly received a broken or substandard unit; and then had to package it back up and take it to some random third-party store in a return process designed to be annoying. Instead, I walked to the hardware store. “We have one that oscillates and one that doesn’t,” the guy in the vest told me. I took the one that oscillates. It works fine.

I am not, I hasten to say, completely offline. Like most people, my job requires me to use the internet. But I am online less. And I am happier for it. I get outside more. I garden and read more books. I still follow the news, but less compulsively. Spending some parts of my day without my attention being monetized or my data being harvested is a nice bonus. It makes me feel kind of like a line-dried bedsheet smells.

I find myself dreaming about additional returns to offline existence. I live in Portland, Oregon, where we still have lots of movie theaters and even a video-rental place. I could—I might—cancel all my streaming services and just rent stuff and watch movies at the theater. I could even finally assuage my guilt over the lousy way music-streaming services pay musicians and avoid being fooled by AI bands by going back to CDs and records—and by seeing more artists play live. I don’t think I’ll be the only one reorienting toward physical media and physical presence: books and records, live theater and music, brick-and-mortar stores with knowledgeable salespeople, one long conversation with one real person instead of 300 short interactions with internet strangers who might be robots.

Tech companies may assume that the public is so habituated—or even addicted—to doing everything online that people will put up with any amount of risk or unpleasantness to continue to transact business and amuse themselves on the internet. But there is a limit to what at least some of us will take, especially when the alternative has real appeal. One recent study shows that disconnecting your phone from the internet creates a mood boost on par with pharmaceutical antidepressants. And if more people explore offline alternatives—at least until this whole generative-AI explosion works itself out—it could create a feedback loop, livening up cities and communities, which then become a more tempting alternative to screens. What the internet will become in a post-AI world is anybody’s guess. Maybe it’ll finally become something transcendent. Or maybe, as the conspiracy theory goes, it is already dead.

I want to talk about the comment whose name is too long. That motherfucker. Before anyone goes for my head. I said that Snape built the marauders fandom.

For context, it was a TikTok about 3 fandoms within the Harry Potter one. Which are:

- harry potter itself aka golden trio

- marauders era

- Slytherin boys

To which I posted a comment on the TikTok.

[@Harry Potter Fan:

HP is canon

Marauders is fanon but act like canon and are filled with snaters yet somehow they refuse to believe that Snape basically built that fandom

Slytherin gang is just pure thirst]

I'm not lying. I just know that. Then this person said:

[@ChuuyasSlvttyWaistfanclub 👁🚦:Snape built the fandom??? Do he didn't, the fandom was built off of wolfstar]

Since then I've gone into a deep research on fanfiction.net, ao3 and archive.org

Imagine my bitter surprise when I saw more wolfstar fanfics in the 2000's than snupin. So I did some deeper research into this. I spent about my whole morning on this. All I got were reddit bs from the marauders fandom taking a crap and whatnot. Believe me, I used Google. Couldn't find a thing.

So I turned to look at chatgpt. I now more about the history of websites than I intended. Many of the fanfictions date don't even check out. There is litterally a wolfstar fanfic on ao3 that was made in 1950, it also has jegulus and indian James (that was basically booming last year). Many fanfics there are also dated back to 2002 and 2001, meanwhile ao3 exists in 2008.

(also, no hate to the author's that mixed up the dates. Maybe they thought the date was meant as a setting in which time period their story plays at, I also saw one of 1984.)

So I found it unreliable to search based on fanfictions when authors could change the dates. Then I turned to livejournal as chatgpt offered. That is a hot mess. Maybe it's because I am new but I have no idea how that works. So I landed on 2 answers.

Answer 1: wolfstar and snupin equally gained the same popularity. So neither snupin nor wolfstar began first or built the fandom.

Answer 2: according to chatgpt. It was snupin that raged with it's popularity between 2003 and 207. The pictures posted below, explain it well. But in short. Snupin was popular on other platforms that many fans do NOT use anymore nowadays. After 2010, ships excluding Snape like jily and wolfstar then many many more took the wheel and veered that maraudersfandom into the hotpot we know as today. The fandom that excuses death eaters, but not Snape.

That was the cause of ao3 and Tumblr. I believe even the wolfstar fanfics of back then we're more likeable and nicer than the ones we have today where they yank out all character traits of the characters and call it a day.

I hope this helps. So you either settle with snupin or nothing, your choice really. 😂. So fuck that comment with a too long name. I choose snupin.

Also, believe me when I say, I truly did try to search for other methods. I spent my entire morning on getting to the bottom of this but there simply were no other leads left. So as a measure against AI favoritism. I will borrow another phone, of my sister who is not a maraudersfan at all, and my mom's phone who doesn't even know what a harry potter is. Then go to chat gpt, type in the same question and see those answers.

Now, as promised, I checked on multiple sources to not base it on preference. My sister isn't even into harry Potter a lot, but into lord of the rings. About 5 years ago she was into the fandom but by then chat gpt doesn't exist. Fairly obvious she has no clue what marauders even is. This is what her chat gpt says:

The Whole Sort of General Mish Mosh of AI

I’m not typing this.

January this year, I injured myself on a bike and it infringed on a couple of things I needed to do in particular working on my PhD. Because I had effectively one hand, I was temporarily disabled and it finally put it in my head to consider examining accessibility tools.

One of the accessibility tools I started using was Microsoft’s own text to speech that’s built into the operating system I used, which is Windows Not-The-Current-One-That-Everyone-Complains-About. I’m not actually sure which version I have. It wasn’t good but it was usable, and being usable meant spending a week or so thinking out what I was going to write a phrase at a time and then specifying my punctuation marks period.

I’m making this article — or the draft of it to be wholly honest — without touching my computer at all.

What I am doing right now is playing my voice into Audacity. Then I’m going to use Audacity to export what I say as an MP3, which I will then take to any one of a few dozen sites that offer free transcription of voice to text conversion. After that, I take the text output, check it for mistakes, fill in sentences I missed when coming off the top of my head, like this one, and then put it into WordPress.

A number of these sites are old enough that they can boast that they’ve been doing this for 10 years, 15 years, or served millions of customers. The one that transcribed this audio claims to have been founded in 2006, which suggests the technology in question is at least, you know, five. Seems odd then that the site claims its transcription is ‘powered by AI,’ because it certainly wasn’t back then, right? It’s not just the statements on the page, either, there’s a very deliberate aesthetic presentation that wants to look like the slickly boxless ‘website as application’ design many sites for the so-called AI folk favour.

This is one of those things that comes up whenever I want to talk about generative media and generative tools. Because a lot of stuff is right now being lumped together in a Whole Sort of General Mish Mosh of AI (WSOGMMOA). This lump, the WSOGMMOA, means that talking about any of it is used as if it’s talking about all of it in the way that the current speaker wants to be talked about even within a confrontational conversation from two different people.

For people who are advocates of AI, they will talk about how ChatGPT is an everythingamajig. It will summarize your emails and help you write your essays and it will generate you artwork that you want and it will give you the rules for games you can play and it will help you come up with strategies for succeeding at the games you’ve already got all while it generates code for you and diagnoses your medical needs and summarises images and turns photos of pages into transcriptions it will then read aloud to you, and all you have to focus on is having the best ideas. The notion is that all of these things, all of these services, are WSOGMMOA, and therefore, the same thing, and since any of that sounds good, the whole thing has to be good. It’s a conspiracy theory approach, sometimes referred to as the ‘stack of shit’ approach – you can pile up a lot of garbage very high and it can look impressive. Doesn’t stop it being garbage. But mixed in with the garbage, you have things that are useful to people who aren’t just professionally on twitter, and these services are not all the same thing.

They have some common threads amongst them. Many of them are functionally looking at math the same way. Many or even most of them are claiming to use LLMs, or large language models and I couldn’t explain the specifics of what that means, nor should you trust an explainer from me about them. This is the other end of the WSOGMMOA, where people will talk about things like image generation on midjourney and deepseek (pieces of software you can run on your computer) consumes the same power as the people building OpenAI’s data research centres (which is terrible and being done in terrible ways). This lumping can make the complaints about these tools seem unserious to people with more information and even frivolous to people with less.

Back to the transcription services though. Transcription services are an example of a thing that I think represents a good application of this math, the underlying software that these things are all relying on. For a start, transcription software doesn’t have a lot of use cases outside of exactly this kind of experience. Someone who chooses or cannot use a keyboard to write with who wants to use an alternate means, converting speech into written text, which can be for access or archival purposes. You aren’t going to be doing much with that that isn’t exactly just that and we do want this software. We want transcriptions to be really good. We want people who can’t easily write to be able to archive their thoughts as text to play with them. Text is really efficient, and being able to write without your hands makes writing more available to more people. Similarly, there are people who can’t understand spoken speech – for a host of reasons! – and making spoken media more available is also good!

You might want to complain at this point that these services are doing a bad job or aren’t as good as human transcription and that’s probably true, but would you rather decent subtitles that work in most cases vs only the people who can pay transcription a living wage having subtitles? Similarly, these things in a lot of places refuse to use no-no words or transcribe ‘bad’ things like pornography and crimes or maybe even swears, and that’s a sign that the tool is being used badly and disrespects the author, and it’s usually because the people deploying the tool don’t care about the use case, they care about being seen deploying the tool.

This is the salami slicer through which bits of the WSOGMMOA is trying to wiggle. Tools whose application represent things that we want, for good reasons, that were being worked on independently of the WSOGMMOA, and now that the WSOGMMOA is here, being lampreyed onto in the name of pulling in a vast bubble of hypothetical investment money in a desperate time of tech industry centralisation.

As an example, phones have long since been using technology to isolate faces. That technology was used for a while to force the focus on a face. Privacy became more of a concern, then many phones were being made with software that could preemptively blur the faces of non-focal humans in a shot. This has since, with generative media, stepped up a next level, where you now have tools that can remove people from the background of photographs so that you can distribute photographs of things you saw or things you did without necessarily sharing the photos of people who didn’t consent to having their photo taken. That is a really interesting tool!

Ideologically, I’m really in favor of the idea that you should be able to opt out of being included on the internet. It’s illegal in France, for example, to take a photo of someone without their permission, which means any group shot of a crowd, hypothetically, someone in that crowd who was not asked for permission, can approach the photographer and demand recompense. I don’t know how well that works, but it shows up in journalism courses at this point.

That’s probably why that software got made – regulations in governments led to the development of the tool and then it got refined to make it appealing to a consumer at the end point so it could be used as as a selling point. It wouldn’t surprise me if right now, under the hood, the tech works in some similar way to MidJourney or Dall-E or whatever, but it’s not a solution searching for a problem. I find that really interesting. Is this feature that, again, is running on your phone locally, still part of the concerns of the WSOGMMOA? What about the software being used to detect cancer in patients based on sophisticated scans I couldn’t explain and you wouldn’t understand? How about when a glamour model feeds her own images into the corpus of a Midjourney machine to create more pictures of herself to sell?

Because admit it, you kinda know the big reason as a person who dislikes ‘AI’ stuff that you want to oppose WSOGMMOA. It’s because the heart of it, the big loud centerpiece of it, is the worst people in the goddamn world, and they want to use these good uses of this whole landscape of technology as a figleaf to justify why they should be using ChatGPT to read their emails for them when that’s 80% of their job. It’s because it’s the worst people in the world’s whole personality these past two years, when it was NFTs before that, and it’s a term they can apply to everything to get investors to pay for it. Which is a problem because if you cede to the WSOGMMOA model, there are useful things with meaningful value that that guy gets to claim is the same as his desire to raise another couple of billions of dollars so he can promise you that he will make a god in a box that he definitely, definitely cannot fucking do while presenting himself as the hero opposing Harry Potter and the Protocols of Rationality.

The conversation gets flattened around the basically two poles:

All of these tools, everything that labels itself as AI is fundamentally an evil burning polar bears, and

Actually everyone who doesn’t like AI is a butt hurt loser who didn’t invest earlier and buy the dip because, again, these people were NFT dorks only a few years ago.

For all that I like using some of these tools, tools that have helped my students with disability and language barriers, the fact remains that talking about them and advocating for them usefully in public involves being seen as associating with the group of some of the worst fucking dickheads around. The tools drag along with them like a gooey wake bad actors with bad behaviours. Artists don’t want to see their work associated with generative images, and these people gloat about doing it while the artist tells them not to. An artist dies and out of ‘respect’ for the dead they feed his art into a machine to pump out glurgey thoughtless ‘tributes’ out of booru tags meant for collecting porn. Even me, I write nuanced articles about how these tools have some applications and we shouldn’t throw all the bathwater out with the babies, and then I post it on my blog that’s down because some total shitweasel is running a scraper bot that ignores the blog settings telling them to go fucking pound sand.

I should end here, after all, the transcription limit is about eight minutes.

QUESTION THREE:

If servers take up so much space, then does the warehouse they’re in just have to be Big Enough or can you wire servers together over multiple floors with long enough cables? Does this impact processing time? With huge server systems like Google, do they even HAVE an access point or a central node or is it just one, MASSIVE conglomeration of processing power?? Are there different types of cable for different purposes of what the servers are doing?? Im going insane. Madam I’ve been struck with The Ailment (ADHD)

OK! This one is really interesting because it's the reason why I don't believe that the Circus is abandoned. I mean that in the way that if TADC is following any kind of realistic standards, then the physical hardware behind the circus can't be just tucked away in an abandoned building somewhere. The demands for power and cooling are high. Even if we assume that automated systems take care of that, hardware WILL fail over years of operation.

(Sorry this took so long) Once again, long post under cut

Have you ever seen Google go down? Maybe Youtube? In the past when they were a small website, sure, but not anymore. If you can make a connection, then you will be able to reach those servers. I assume that the circus has a similar setup, as No matter what, there is a digital space for the humans to occupy. That means that there is ZERO downtime.

But these devises live in the real world, connected to the very real power grid. How can they be powered 24/7? A bad storm hits the area and a tree takes out the power lines, do all of the websites hosted on those servers have to wait the hours, possibly days for that line to be fixed? Nope! These centers advertise 24/7 service and they mean it. What this means is that typically, they will have ON SITE generators that can run the ENTIRE center at a moments notice. Some even have an extra generator on standby in case one of the generators malfunction. Redundancy is the name of the game. If something is essential to function, then there WILL be an exact copy on site as a backup. That is why these big websites never go down for service, there is ALWAYS something available to connect to.

But what most people don't realize is the water requirements. Have you ever seen the statistic that chatGPT consumes like 2-3 THOUSAND liters of water every day? And thought, why the fuck does a computer need water? Isn’t water a bad thing for computers? But water has a very useful ability in the way that it handles heat. It’s the same way how your sweat evaporating cools you off. Think of cooling as just removing the heat instead of actually making cold. So water is used in the cooling of these data centers, which is to say, water is used as the refrigerant. It’s a similar concept to how your fridge works, except the refrigerant is lost over time. The water is allowed to evaporate and leave the building because it makes for more efficient cooling. Here’s a video that goes more into detail about water loss cooling for data centers specifically.

As for the actual building, data centers with multiple floors do exist! The reason one may be a single story has more to do with the cost of land vs the cost to build a building with multiple floors that can support the weight of all of those machines. If land cost more than the steel and concrete needed for multiple floors, then. yes, the shorter the cable the more efficient the data transfer, but the time loss is so short that it’s pretty much unnoticeable to the human eye. Some places also standardize their wire lengths, so every server gets the same load time regardless of the actual placement of the server.

But the people who care about that are insane stock traders (not gamers believe it or not) and advancements have made it so that time delay only starts to matter when a cable reaches miles long in length. And those advancements are Fiber Optics! Fiber being literal fibers (either glass or plastic) and Optics as in lenses or reflection. This is because fiber optic cables carry light instead of electricity. Because light is fast as fuck. So then where does the delay come from? Turns out even with the most reflective, chemically perfect fibers, light scatters and eventually data is lost. So repeaters are put in to repeat the input signal, refreshing it. But these repeaters aren’t perfect, so lag is eventually introduced, so modern fiber optics use amplifiers. Amplifiers strengthen the original signal instead of repeating it, making for faster transfers of days.

But you want to know about how these things are wired in terms of electricity! How these things can fit so much electricity in one building? The answer is industrial grade wiring! It's different from the power cables that you find in your house. Well, the wires themselves may be the same, the difference comes in at the fuse box. Here’s a lady plugging all of the wires in a house into the fuse box. The box itself is then plugged into the power line, which provides the electricity. Multiple lines or higher gauge lines will be ran from the power plant to the data center. The exact set up depends on where the data center is in relation to the power plant, who’s building it, and state laws.

Also, for industrial wiring, they usually run the wires through metal pipes instead of letting the wires sit against the insulation. Here’s a guy who wired his house like this. He doesn’t go into detail about what everything means but you don’t need to know all of that to appreciate the pipe work. If you want me to go into electricity as a form of power and the different phases of AC... I'm going to be honest just call me on discord so I can get out the whiteboard. I will give you a whole college grade lecture about how electricity works.

Servers don't have a central node, their operation and purpose is different from computer clusters. While each unit is wired together in a cabinet, each unit operates as it's own individual machine. So, a computer cluster will be spreading one load over multiple machines, a server takes many small loads (<- terrible oversimplification but it works). Everything around it exists to route the right requests to it, power it, cool it, and monitor its operation. But they do have access points! As in, you can connect to it directly or use SSH shell to remotely connect to it. SSH shell is just a secure way to connect to the server, as a maintenance level of access is usually not something that you want anyone to be able to pick up on.

Last but not least, YES! There are many different kinds of cables made for different tasks! Or just to be cheap. The more you get into engineering the more you realize half the shit that we do is because it's the cheapest option that still meets requirements! I left some interesting videos in the bottom of this if you are really curious, but I honestly think that figuring out the exact wires is getting a little too into the weeds for this.

So, to summarize, data centers need generators, water for cooling, and have spare copies of pretty much everything. That’s why it’s so god damn rare to see big websites like google docs down but Ao3 goes down every now and then. He's a bunch of helpful videos that I uses when writing this.

hi!! I was wondering where or how you do you research for players and teams, and just hockey in general? do you have any favorite blogs or other resources? thank you~

okay picking thru web rot for the sharks primer has prepared me for this one lmao here's the quick answer because i really need to eat some pie and go to bed. Hockey is my all-consuming interest at the moment and I haven't watched actual television or films; or read anything non-academic that isn't about hockey in.... 9 months? If it seems like I am taking in a LOT of information in a short amount of time it's because I am. I listen to hockey things at 2-5x speed depending on if its a video on youtube (locked to 2x), a podcast (3.5x is my ideal speed), or my screenreader (5x) and often take notes, save articles as pdfs to go back to, and transcribe things for fun (only recently am putting my transcriptions as addendums to gifs... very rewarding <3). When not studying for my actual degree, I am reading about hockey or listening to something hockey related or watching hockey or writing about hockey or learning how to play hockey. i am so serious. please don't assume that this is normal, optimal, or even something I would wish upon other people. I am in Love with her in thee most wretched and irrevocable way. She's my hobby in the sense that shes my sun and im building my wax wings and looking directly at her light and thanking her for blinding me. amen.

more seriously, if I'm going down a player rabbit hole I will try many of these things - though not necessarily all of them, and not in this order (and i'm sure i've forgotten one or two things I usually try... lordy):

I go to spotify/apple podcasts and throw in player names just to see what comes up and listen to basically everything.

if they are on an NHL team, there are likely MULTIPLE podcasts dedicated to that team. trawl through their podcast archives, especially post-game podcasts where discussion is happening about their performance. sometimes there are even interviews <3

i do the same with youtube if I can...!

throw their name into reddit, tumblr, twitter and scroll. endlessly. just trawl through everything that I can possibly get my hands on. The more obscure the player the easier this is, because there really aren't that many things to find out about them and not many people are talking about them at all. <- this is how I make contact with people who are the only person that knows about this one (1) guy and then we hold fins forever. <3

find out who the teams beat reporters are. if youre looking into prospects, even juniors teams have people covering them. the writing might not be the highest quality but you WILL eventually find fun details if you go digging.

check: elite prospects articles, the hockey writers articles, find out the player's home town and see if their local paper has anything on them (basically, check any and all databases that use a tagging system or have a functional search engine)

helpful things to tack onto the end of google/youtube/database searches: "media availability" "post-game" "interview" "feature" "profile" "scouting report" "draft" "debut" "review" "highlight" "tournament"

if they're a player from a non-english speaking country it's worth throwing their non-romanized name into google to see what you can get. google translate the website // chatgpt translation are two options - not ideal and not to be trusted 100% over actual translation done by a fluent human speaker.

Instagram stories are the bane of my existence because they're so ephemeral

tiktok is a parallel universe to me. I do not have the app. any browsing I do on it is solely via googling "[team name] tiktok official" and clicking around on my desktop PC. I've only ever done this for M.Chrona's gf (who is much more famous than him) but if you're really doing down the rabbit hole of player research, some of their WAGs will post about them. <- as always, be respectful/not weird.

facebook for older stuff... genuinely makes my skin crawl so I avoid it and its a last resort LMAO but yeah teams used to post on facebook and everything!!! <- again. dont be weird and stalk peoples families or friends asjklakjl

Substack is good for general hockey stuff if you can stomach the dreaded idea of subscribing via email or getting the app <3 I like: Jack Han (hockey tactics newsletter), Sean Shapiro (shap shots), Adam Gretz (adam's sports stuff), Thibaud Chatel <- for the analytics nerds, Alex MacLean <- his Scouting The Scouts series is what got me into substack in the first place, Greg Revak (hockey IQ newsletter) <- this is the one that's got me on development stuff atm SUPER rec because there's gifs and charts and many many hyperlinks included for citations <3

i should do a book rec at some point but uhhhh its getting late and im hungry <3 thank you for asking + reading if you got this far, I hope it was a helpful peek into my process?

What are like good AIs for making up inspirations for writing and such? I was trying to make ChatGPT fulfill this function, and like it's good at coming up with names or riddles but actual stories or setting ideas are bad. Not even bad as in nonsensical or lack human touch, bad as in they look like the most generic thing possible

Well, before AIs there was this website, with all sorts of generators for names, NPCs, even random maps and solar systems and more for different settings. It even has a free Markov Name Generator where you can just put a list of names or words and it generates random names from them! I still use it for generating names when I feel lazy (I'm not a good conlanger)

But my favorite right now is one you can find here, @statsbot by @reachartwork. You can add the bot on Discord and ask them for a lot of commands, like creating you a statblock for NPCs or characters (I asked them for example for stats for the Daft Punk guys in a Cyberpunk campaign), a skeleton of an adventure or dungeon with random encounters, random monsters for all kinds of systems, descriptions of settings and places, or my VERY favorite, /elaborate, where you send them a little worldbuilding prompt (for example, "a kobold merchant republic", "a pantheon of fire deities") and it gives you a whole worldbuilding blurb that you can use as you want.

This is one of my favorite outputs:

The outputs are very interesting and creative, I don't even play RPGs that much, I just feed it prompts and see what it comes up with. I think the author is working on a solo version which can remember previous prompts which could be very useful if you are building a setting and want to develop some stuff but don't know how. Do give them a tip if you use it!

no more self promo in my inbox

Edit/Disclaimer: this post is out of date. please read this post for more information. the doxxer has now been revealed to be Veal themself, however per my rules of keeping everything in place, these posts will remain up for archival purposes, despite the ongoing speculation of the time.

Original Post below: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

so the more dillingent of you may have noticed that @terratimeventblog (aka, the one from this post) is now gone

turns out that they were using the blog as a front to dox our new public enemy number 1, veal.

this is pretty interesting considering the veal hate that came recently to here, but anyways, that account dmed veal to say someone sent them these anons:

shortly after, veal sent this:

seems like they deleted shortly after that

so! hypothesis and speculation time:

first off, i think the blog itself was probably made JUST for this purpose, seeing as everything happened in such a short timeframe. they possibly could have used a spoofed link on there? however since the gofundme is brought up, im more inclined to think they got the info there. since gofundme uses your bank account, you have to use your legal name. its possible they used veal's legal name in a background check website and got all of their info.

as for who is behind this, leads are minimal. veal did say that civ had donated to their gofundme, and while this doesnt directly implicate them it is a funny coincidence. personally, i think it could be any one of their cronies. they ARE someone in re-up, so anyone over there be careful with your personal info. this is proven with them using screens from the server that i havent used here (according to someone else in re-up) and the fact they specifically say "you can show this to re-up." theyre definitely an uber-cool master level troll who wanted to just sit back and watch it all burn *slides on sick shades*

their goal seems pretty clear, its someone with a vendetta against veal for whatever reason and wanted to scare them shitless. if i wanted to be even more of a conspiracy theorist, i would say the anon of my recent veal ask is the same person as the doxxer, but honestly i dont know how many enemies veal has

the last bit of interesting info is this post from civ that came out around 3 hours before veal dropped the "someone has my address" message

i hypothesize that this connects the situation more to one of civ's cronies, and possibly someone linked with isopups. considering zaga's current apology tour, veal suddenly getting hate, and the dark past of both isos and terras coming to light, thats what makes the most sense to me. this post could be a "coming to reality" moment for civ, not wanting to be tied in with these fucking lunatics anymore (and considering terras hasnt had any huge civ-related drama recently id say its a bit out of left field), but ultimately this is just me having playtime with my polaroids and red string

as a small conclusion, i feel slightly responsible for this, being the person to promo them (and considering the high visibility of this blog). as such, no more self promo in my inbox whatsoever. build an audience your own way

for a more final conclusion though, doxxing people isnt the way to go (thanks captian obvious), and really what does it accomplish? what are you going to do with the address of a person who pissed you off in a closed species discord server? are you gonna seek legal action against some stupid highschooler? are you gonna order pizzas to their house? SWAT them? send a really strongly worded letter? never mind the fact the communities involved are niches within niches within niches. try explaining this shit to someone in real life, try explaining it to your geriatric grandma.

my advice to you all: get a fucking job. go outside. talk to a real human person instead of your ChatGPT waifu. for the love of god stop wrapping yourself up so deeply in this shit that you need to go on a spec-ops mission to find some guy's address and scare them. do you really have nothing better to do? this behavior comes off as pathetic more than anything else. it screams to me "hi! im a socially deprived individual acting fucking insane because im constantly high off huffing the paint from the walls of my mother's basement, as well as the pervading stench of my own ass!"

genuinely, get a life

[uhardite]

hi, I'm trying to start new , so I want to less my screen time and study and don't wanna eat unhealthy, but I have migraine problems so if go outside I need to always eat like sweet something like candy and biscuits .

❤ to lessen screen time, i use this free app called Regain, where you can set up time limits for your distracting apps. what i love the most about the app is that it blocks scrolling reels and youtube shorts, and every time you open a distracting app, it asks how much time you wanna spend on it, and encourages you to close the app when your chosen time is up. i find that it helps me get less distracted and be more intentional with the way i spend my time.

for pc, the app Cold Turkey works well for me, where you can set up app and website blocks to control your screen time. it is a robust software and i like to use it when im in deep trenches (such as before exam season).

❤ speaking of mindful eating, getting something sweet to eat is not necessarily unhealthy as long as it is in moderation. a rule of thumb is to limit yourself to a single serving of packaged snacks, a small candy bar and 2-3 standard-sized biscuits, which is the recommended daily portion. another option is to pair snacks with wholesome foods such as fruit, nuts or yoghurt, or to replace sweet foods with their healthier alternatives. however, do your research and consult a doctor if needed, because my advice is general and might not apply to your case.

❤ for studying, start small with 2-5 tasks and block out times in your calendar during which you'd like to study. next, upload your task list and the time you want to dedicate to doing these on chatgpt, and ask it to create a study schedule for you. customise it according to your needs. you can create a week's schedule ahead of time or just a daily one, as you see fit. make sure not to overwhelm yourself with tasks and prioritise upcoming exams or assignments, even if you want to procastinate on them and do something else. the key is to be consistent and show up for yourself, which may mean just studying for 20 mins or only finishing one task. building the habit of studying will go a longer way than just cramming last moment and then going back to old patterns.

and that's it, hope you found this helpful! <3 let me know if you'd like me to explain in further detail, and be sure to update me on your progress, id love to see what works for you . ۫ ꣑ৎ

[the-jellicle-duelist]

i woke up feeling Nihilistic about Technology so now you must all suffer with me most people are probably not keeping up with what the tech companies are actually making, doing, demoing, with AI in the way i am. and that's okay you will not like what you hear most likely. i am also not any kind of technology professional. i just like technology. i just read about technology. there's sort of two things that are happening in tandem which is:

there is a race between some of the biggest ones (google, meta, openai, microsoft, etc. along with some not yet household name ones like perplexity and deepseek) to essentially Decide, make the tech, and Win at this technology. think of how Google has been the defacto ruler of the internet between the Search Engine that delivers web pages, and the Ad Engine that makes money for advertisers and google. they have all of the information and make the majority of the money. AI is the first technology in 20 years that has everyone scrambling to become the new Google of That.

ChatGPT, the thing we have access to right now, it is stupid sometimes. but the reason every single company is pushing this shit is because they want to be First to make a product that Works, and they also are rebuilding how we will interact with the internet from the ground up. the thing basically everyone wants is to control 'the window' as it were between You typing things into the computer, and the larger internet. in a real way, Google owns 'the window' in many meaningful (monetary) ways. the future that basically every company is working towards right now is a version of the the websites on the internet become more of a database; a collection of data that can be accessed by the AI model. every computer you use becomes the Search box on Google.com, but when you type things into it, it just finds information and spits it out in front of you. there is a future where 'the internet' is just an AI chat bot.

holding those two ideas at once (everyone wants to be the Google of AI, and also every single tech company wants us to look at the internet in a way they choose and have control over) THIS SUCKS. THIS SUCKS ASS.

THE THING THAT IS BEAUTIFUL ABOUT THE INTERNET IS THAT IT IS OPEN. you can, in almost every place in the world, build a stupid website and connect it to the internet and anyone can look at it. ANYONE. we have absolutely NOTHING ELSE as universal, as open, as this. every single tech company is trying to change this in a meaningful way. in the Worst version of this, the internet just looks like the ChatGPT page, because it scrapes data and regurgitates it back to you. instead of seeing the place where this data was written, formatted, presented, on its own website like god intended

the worst part is: despite the posts you see from almost everyone in our respective bubbles about how AI sucks, we won't use it, it's bad for the environment, etc. NORMAL PEOPLE are using this shit all of the time. they are fine that it occasionally is wrong. and also the models of the various Chatbot AIs is getting better everyday at not being wrong. for like the first time in like 20 years since google launched, there is a real threat that the place people go to search for things online is rapidly shifting somewhere else. because people are using this stuff. the loudest people against AI are currently a minority of loud voices. not only is this not going away, but it is happening. this is actually web 3.0. and it's going to be so shit

this is not to say you will not be able to go to tumblr.com. but it will take effort. browser applications are basically not profitable, just ask Mozilla. google has chrome, which makes money because it has you use Google and it tracks your data to sell you ads. safari doesn't make money, but apple Takes google's money to pay for maintaining it. most other browsers are just forked chromium.

in my opinion there will be one sad browser application for you to access real websites, it will eventually become unmaintained as people just go to the winner's AI chatbot app to access information online. 'websties' will become subculture; a group of hobbyists will maintain the thing that might let you access these things. normal people will move on from the idea of going to websites.

the future of the internet will be a sad, lonely place, where the sterile, commercially viable and advertiser friendly chatbot will tell you about whatever you type or say into the computer. it will encourage people to not make connections online, or even in their lives, because there will be a voice assistant they can talk with. one of the latest google demos, there is a person fixing their bicycle, having Gemini look thru the manual, tell them how to fix a certain part of the bike. Gemini calls a repair shop, and talks to the person on the other side. a lot of people covering this are like 'that future is extremely cool and interesting to me' and when i heard That that is when i know we have like. lost it.

for whatever reason, people want this kind of technology. and it makes me so sad.

[mariacallous]

On a 5K screen in Kirkland, Washington, four terminals blur with activity as artificial intelligence generates thousands of lines of code. Steve Yegge, a veteran software engineer who previously worked at Google and AWS, sits back to watch.

“This one is running some tests, that one is coming up with a plan. I am now coding on four different projects at once, although really I’m just burning tokens,” Yegge says, referring to the cost of generating chunks of text with a large language model (LLM).

Learning to code has long been seen as the ticket to a lucrative, secure career in tech. Now, the release of advanced coding models from firms like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google threatens to upend that notion entirely. X and Bluesky are brimming with talk of companies downsizing their developer teams—or even eliminating them altogether.

When ChatGPT debuted in late 2022, AI models were capable of autocompleting small portions of code—a helpful, if modest step forward that served to speed up software development. As models advanced and gained “agentic” skills that allow them to use software programs, manipulate files, and access online services, engineers and non-engineers alike started using the tools to build entire apps and websites. Andrej Karpathy, a prominent AI researcher, coined the term “vibe coding” in February, to describe the process of developing software by prompting an AI model with text.

The rapid progress has led to speculation—and even panic—among developers, who fear that most development work could soon be automated away, in what would amount to a job apocalypse for engineers.

“We are not far from a world—I think we’ll be there in three to six months—where AI is writing 90 percent of the code,” Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, said at a Council on Foreign Relations event in March. “And then in 12 months, we may be in a world where AI is writing essentially all of the code,” he added.

But many experts warn that even the best models have a way to go before they can reliably automate a lot of coding work. While future advancements might unleash AI that can code just as well as a human, until then relying too much on AI could result in a glut of buggy and hackable code, as well as a shortage of developers with the knowledge and skills needed to write good software.

David Autor, an economist at MIT who studies how AI affects employment, says it’s possible that software development work will be automated—similar to how transcription and translation jobs are quickly being replaced by AI. He notes, however, that advanced software engineering is much more complex and will be harder to automate than routine coding.

Autor adds that the picture may be complicated by the “elasticity” of demand for software engineering—the extent to which the market might accommodate additional engineering jobs.

“If demand for software were like demand for colonoscopies, no improvement in speed or reduction in costs would create a mad rush for the proctologist's office,” Autor says. “But if demand for software is like demand for taxi services, then we may see an Uber effect on coding: more people writing more code at lower prices, and lower wages.”

Yegge’s experience shows that perspectives are evolving. A prolific blogger as well as coder, Yegge was previously doubtful that AI would help produce much code. Today, he has been vibe-pilled, writing a book called Vibe Coding with another experienced developer, Gene Kim, that lays out the potential and the pitfalls of the approach. Yegge became convinced that AI would revolutionize software development last December, and he has led a push to develop AI coding tools at his company, Sourcegraph.

“This is how all programming will be conducted by the end of this year,” Yegge predicts. “And if you're not doing it, you're just walking in a race.”

The Vibe-Coding Divide

Today, coding message boards are full of examples of mobile apps, commercial websites, and even multiplayer games all apparently vibe-coded into being. Experienced coders, like Yegge, can give AI tools instructions and then watch AI bring complex ideas to life.

Several AI-coding startups, including Cursor and Windsurf have ridden a wave of interest in the approach. (OpenAI is widely rumored to be in talks to acquire Windsurf).

At the same time, the obvious limitations of generative AI, including the way models confabulate and become confused, has led many seasoned programmers to see AI-assisted coding—and especially gung-ho, no-hands vibe coding—as a potentially dangerous new fad.

Martin Casado, a computer scientist and general partner at Andreessen Horowitz who sits on the board of Cursor, says the idea that AI will replace human coders is overstated. “AI is great at doing dazzling things, but not good at doing specific things,” he said.

Still, Casado has been stunned by the pace of recent progress. “I had no idea it would get this good this quick,” he says. “This is the most dramatic shift in the art of computer science since assembly was supplanted by higher-level languages.”

Ken Thompson, vice president of engineering at Anaconda, a company that provides open source code for software development, says AI adoption tends to follow a generational divide, with younger developers diving in and older ones showing more caution. For all the hype, he says many developers still do not trust AI tools because their output is unpredictable, and will vary from one day to the next, even when given the same prompt. “The nondeterministic nature of AI is too risky, too dangerous,” he explains.

Both Casado and Thompson see the vibe-coding shift as less about replacement than abstraction, mimicking the way that new languages like Python build on top of lower-level languages like C, making it easier and faster to write code. New languages have typically broadened the appeal of programming and increased the number of practitioners. AI could similarly increase the number of people capable of producing working code.

Bad Vibes

Paradoxically, the vibe-coding boom suggests that a solid grasp of coding remains as important as ever. Those dabbling in the field often report running into problems, including introducing unforeseen security issues, creating features that only simulate real functionality, accidentally running up high bills using AI tools, and ending up with broken code and no idea how to fix it.

“AI [tools] will do everything for you—including fuck up,” Yegge says. “You need to watch them carefully, like toddlers.”

The fact that AI can produce results that range from remarkably impressive to shockingly problematic may explain why developers seem so divided about the technology. WIRED surveyed programmers in March to ask how they felt about AI coding, and found that the proportion who were enthusiastic about AI tools (36 percent) was mirrored by the portion who felt skeptical (38 percent).

“Undoubtedly AI will change the way code is produced,” says Daniel Jackson, a computer scientist at MIT who is currently exploring how to integrate AI into large-scale software development. “But it wouldn't surprise me if we were in for disappointment—that the hype will pass.”

Jackson cautions that AI models are fundamentally different from the compilers that turn code written in a high-level language into a lower-level language that is more efficient for machines to use, because they don’t always follow instructions. Sometimes an AI model may take an instruction and execute better than the developer—other times it might do the task much worse.

Jackson adds that vibe coding falls down when anyone is building serious software. “There are almost no applications in which ‘mostly works’ is good enough,” he says. “As soon as you care about a piece of software, you care that it works right.”

Many software projects are complex, and changes to one section of code can cause problems elsewhere in the system. Experienced programmers are good at understanding the bigger picture, Jackson says, but “large language models can't reason their way around those kinds of dependencies.”

Jackson believes that software development might evolve with more modular codebases and fewer dependencies to accommodate AI blind spots. He expects that AI may replace some developers but will also force many more to rethink their approach and focus more on project design.

Too much reliance on AI may be “a bit of an impending disaster,” Jackson adds, because “not only will we have masses of broken code, full of security vulnerabilities, but we'll have a new generation of programmers incapable of dealing with those vulnerabilities.”

Learn to Code

Even firms that have already integrated coding tools into their software development process say the technology remains far too unreliable for wider use.

Christine Yen, CEO at Honeycomb, a company that provides technology for monitoring the performance of large software systems, says that projects that are simple or formulaic, like building component libraries, are more amenable to using AI. Even so, she says the developers at her company who use AI in their work have only increased their productivity by about 50 percent.

Yen adds that for anything requiring good judgement, where performance is important, or where the resulting code touches sensitive systems or data, “AI just frankly isn't good enough yet to be additive.”

“The hard part about building software systems isn't just writing a lot of code,” she says. “Engineers are still going to be necessary, at least today, for owning that curation, judgment, guidance and direction.”

Others suggest that a shift in the workforce is coming. “We are not seeing less demand for developers,” says Liad Elidan, CEO of Milestone, a company that helps firms measure the impact of generative AI projects. “We are seeing less demand for average or low-performing developers.”

“If I'm building a product, I could have needed 50 engineers and now maybe I only need 20 or 30,” says Naveen Rao, VP of AI at Databricks, a company that helps large businesses build their own AI systems. “That is absolutely real.”

Rao says, however, that learning to code should remain a valuable skill for some time. “It’s like saying ‘Don't teach your kid to learn math,’” he says. Understanding how to get the most out of computers is likely to remain extremely valuable, he adds.

Yegge and Kim, the veteran coders, believe that most developers can adapt to the coming wave. In their book on vibe coding, the pair recommend new strategies for software development including modular code bases, constant testing, and plenty of experimentation. Yegge says that using AI to write software is evolving into its own—slightly risky—art form. “It’s about how to do this without destroying your hard disk and draining your bank account,” he says.

As result of this survey, snupin was in fact the building rock of this marauders fandom. Sure, people might meet trash folk out there that would rub it on our faces and say they twinky stick of a Sirius and heavy balls Remus are the build rock but it isn't even remotely close. The wolfstar ship from back then is even different than the astrocity we witness now as well as their sheep of a fandom.

Fanfiction.net was obviously popular for the older gen of ho fans, but the place that carried the other half of the fandom was in fact websites that aren't used now or are shut down. An example of which is this site:

Which looks like this:

Gone, in other words. Which happens in the capitalistic times. Sites aren't free and in need of support to still exist after all and certainly not by 1 fandom aka HP. Sometimes ao3 asks for support, a platform for all kinds of handsome and not just one.

In conclusion. Snupin in fact did carry the fandom with proof of chatgpt that couldn't be altered on 3 phones with each a different view on HP fandom itself. Or both wolfstar and snupin were famous which has no solid proof. Either way, wolfstar still has to swallow their pride to accept that but I bet they'd rather swallow the heavy balls of daddy Remus. Who knows. I don't know how such rubbish brains are wired to work that way.

I don't like wolfstar fans in general. Because majority (and every single one I've met until now but I STILL can't say all of them) was a snater. Ship doesn't make much sense to me either, no matter how they try to explain it to me. Simply doesn't.

These are the previous posts.

Whether you're a startup or an established brand, staying on top of social media marketing trends is crucial to staying competitive—and relevant.

In this blog, we’ll explore the top social media marketing trends in 2025 and how your business can use them to grow faster, smarter, and more effectively.

 1. Short-Form Video Still Reigns Supreme

Short-form videos (under 60 seconds) are dominating platforms like TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts. Consumers prefer bite-sized content that is quick, entertaining, and informative.

Why it matters:

Videos generate 2x more engagement than static posts.

Brands using Reels or TikToks report higher organic reach compared to images or text-based content.

Tip for 2025: Create educational, behind-the-scenes, or user-generated content in short video format to engage younger audiences

 2. AI-Driven Content Creation & Automation

Artificial Intelligence tools like ChatGPT, Canva Magic Studio, and Meta AI are revolutionizing content creation. In 2025, businesses are leveraging AI t

Why it matters: It reduces manual work, speeds up workflows, and allows marketers to focus more on strategy and storytelling.

Tip: Use AI for drafting, but always add a human touch. Authenticity still wins in social media.

 4. Social Commerce Is Becoming the Norm

Social media platforms are now shopping platforms. Instagram Shops, Facebook Marketplace, and TikTok Shop let users buy without leaving the app.

Why it matters: Consumers prefer convenience. If they see your product in a Reel, they want to buy it in 1–2 taps.

Tip: Optimize your product catalog for mobile and integrate your store with platforms like Shopify or WooCommerce for seamless sel

 5. Community Over Followers

In 2025, the quality of your audience matters more than the number. Brands that foster two-way conversations and build online communities see better long-term growth.

What’s working:

Facebook/LinkedIn Groups

Instagram Broadcast Channels

Discord or WhatsApp brand groups

Tip: Start building a loyal group where you can share exclusive content, offers, and engage directly with your customers.

6. Authenticity > Perfection

Highly edited, overly polished content is on the decline. Audiences prefer raw, honest, and real-time content—even if it's not perfect.

Why it matters: Trust and relatability drive conversions.

Tip: Share real stories: behind-the-scenes of your team, customer testimonials, or honest challenges your business faced.

 7. Social Media SEO Is a Must

Social platforms are becoming search engines. People now type "best cafes near me" on Instagram or TikTok, not just Google.

What to do:

Tip: Think of your Instagram page or TikTok profile as a mini-website. Optimize it with keywords, categories, and highlights.

📌 Final Thoughts

Social media in 2025 is no longer just about posting pretty images. It’s a powerful tool for branding, customer engagement, sales, and even customer support. By embracing these trends, your business can stay ahead of the competition and connect with your audience more meaningfully.

Importance of SEO vs AEO vs GEO

Introduction

In today’s digital world, Businesses want to appear on Google and other search engines when people search for their products or services. This is where SEO comes into focus. But now, along with SEO, new terms like AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation) and GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) have come into focus. So, what are these? Which will be more significant in 2025? Let’s find out in simple words.

SEO stands for Search Engine Optimisation. This is the process of making your website or web pages for search engines. It will help to Google to rank websites on the search engine result pages. In seo, these things are included :

Unique Content:

Keywords

Backlinks

Fast Speed and Mobile-Friendly Website

Meta Tags & Alt Text

Why Local SEO Matters

It makes the source of potential visitors to your site less expensive.

It helps build trust among users.

It increases brand awareness.

It works for the long term.

But SEO is changing. Now people are searching differently. They use voice search or ask AI tools instead of typing on Google. That’s why the new effective way has come & the AEO & GEO is the origin for solving the people’s issue.

How to Use SEO (Step by Step):

Choose the Right Keywords What your customer would search for. To select the right keywords, we can suggest using Google keyword planner or Uber Suggest, which are free tools & easy to use. Example:If you have a Digital Marketing Company, your keyword might be “Best Digital Marketing Agency in Pune.”

Write Helpful Content Create blogs, service pages, or FAQS that answer people's needs. Example: A blog titled ‘Top Digital Marketing Agency for Grow your Business’, a Digital Marketing Agency using your keywords naturally.

Build Links (Backlinks) For the backlinks, we have to list our business on local directories, we have to collaborate with bloggers to get a good response, or we can get featured in news articles for the result. This helps your ranking grow faster.

Benefits of SEO:

Brings free, organic traffic to your website Helps build trust and authority online Increases leads, sales, and brand visibility Works long-term without paying for ads every time

What is AEO?

AEO stands for Answer Engine Optimisation. This is the next level of SEO. It is focused on helping your content or question become the best answer to questions people ask online. People now talk to their phones and smart speakers like: “Hey Google, what is the best hair oil for dry scalp? “Alexa, where is the nearest coffee shop?” and “Hey Siri, what is the time in Paris?”

Why is AEO important in 2025?

Nowadays, everyone uses voice search instead of typing.

For voice search & getting fast response, we use Google devices like Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri, which are good & popular...

AEO helps with SEO by giving answers & so we need this to be the top one.

How to Use AEO (Step by Step):

Write in a Q&A Format Start blog posts or website sections with clear questions and short answers. Example: ‘What is digital marketing?’ followed by a 40-word answer. Create an FAQ Section Include frequently asked questions by your clients and provide straightforward answers. Use Short Sentences Voice assistants pick short, clear answers and avoid long or complicated words. Use Schema Markup (with Developer Help) Local Business schema helps search engines crawl your address and location better. Schema markup increases the chances of voice search results & it is the best way to get smart ways in SEO instead of typing.

Benefits of AEO:

AEO makes work faster & easier by increasing the chances of voice search.

Great for mobile users who prefer talking over typing.

Builds instant trust as users hear your answer first.

Gives your brand authority as a helpful expert.

What is GEO?

GEO Stands for Generative Engine Optimisation. Geo is the most advanced and latest form of SEO. This is a new method where we optimise content for AI tools like Chatgpt, Gemini, and Microsoft’s Copilot. These tools are capable of generating answers, not just showing the results. They read many websites and then give one clear answer. So, in GEO, the content must be Useful and trustworthy, Easy for AI to read and understand, written with expert knowledge, & Updated regularly. In short, GEO is about writing content that AI tools will use in their answers.

How to Use GEO (Step by Step):

Create Long, Detailed Content: Write deep guides, tips, and how-to articles in your field of knowledge. “Complete Guide to Choosing the Best Digital Marketing Course in India”.

ChatGPT dan Personal Statement

Duh padahal semalam tu lagi inspired-inspirednya dan pengen nulis banyak banget hal terutama tentang reading and how reading has changed my life. Semalem beneran lagi di mood bagus banget? Dimulai dengan tidur sore selepas asar menuju magrib, terus entah kenapa inspired buat painting pake himi. Eh pas banget mau mulai painting, si Abi nelpon. Terus yaudah jadinya painting sambil ngobrol lah. Sakin gatau lagi mau gambar apa, ku ngopy foto Han Jisung yang kutempel di moodboard di depan meja. Itu gatau juga foto era jaman kapan, tapi ku suka banget background colornya merah pink putih gitu. Itu ngobrol ternyata 1 jam (wow), dan seberesnya ngobrol beres juga painting saya.

Beres painting ku lanjut ngerjain beberapa chapter Talk To Me In Korean level 2, semalem sampai -ittda/opta terus capek, terus juga baca 1 chapter Your Brain on Art yang bisa di-preview di GoogleBooks karena bagus aja (lupa juga awalnya lihat buku ini pertama kali di mana dan kapan?). Dari situ ku lanjut membaca Yellowface-nya, terus tidur. Nah pas baca Yellowface ini yang ku betul-betul kepikiran buat beli vintage classic typewriter kaya yang dipake sama si Athena?? Super gapenting dan random, tapi dari sini lah ku ber-ide pengen bilang “Aku suka banget reading tapi reading juga lah yang ngasih crazy idea to my mind kadang bingung mau bersyukur atau malah kesal”. Tapi iya entah kenapa beneran baru ngerasain lagi otak yang over-stimulated banget pengen ngerjain a-z pindah-pindah tuh semalem. Sebetulnya pas lagi kerja biasa sehari-hari juga kaya gini sih, tapi lebih in a more unproductive way aja.

Anyway, iya, balik ke judul. Jadinya ini tadi pagi ku sampai dept jam 11 kurang dan langsung ngerjain proofreading Personal Statement salah satu juniorku lah ya. Seru sih jadi mikir banyak banget terkait gimana nulis yang enak dibaca dan gimana bikin PS yang personalised berasa kaya baca tulisan orang, bukan Chat GPT. Ku udah ngetweet ini semua.

Terus lunch kan. Nah di lunch ini ku kepikiran untuk ber-eksperimen: “emangnya bakalan kaya apa sih hasil PS kalau dari ChatGPT? Se-kayak robot itu-kah hasilnya?” Sesampainya balik ke office, kumasukkin prompt kaya gini:

Can you please build a personal statement for me applying to this course: https://www.imperial.ac.uk/study/courses/postgraduate-taught/environmental-technology/ based on my profile https://www.linkedin.com/in/asriindraswari/

Jawaban ChatGPT:

I'm sorry for any confusion, but I don't have direct access to external websites, including LinkedIn. However, I can certainly help you craft a personal statement based on the information you provide. To get started, please share some key details about your academic background, relevant work experience, skills, and any specific achievements or projects related to environmental technology. Additionally, let me know why you are interested in pursuing the Environmental Technology program at Imperial College London. This information will help me tailor the personal statement to showcase your strengths and alignment with the program's objectives.

Terus yaudah ku-copas aja CV pre-PhD ku ke ChatGPT (si Noni udah ga mikirin lagi GDPR yaudahlahya, gaada informasi sensitive juga kok harusnya yang keluar di situ).

Ku tapi di bagian ini belum masukkin yang “why I am interested in pursuing the course”, betulan baru masukkin data CV aja. DAN HASILNYA LUAR BIASA PERSONALISED???! Sampe shocked bacanya:

I am writing to express my strong interest in the Environmental Technology program at Imperial College London, drawing upon my extensive background in geology and petroleum sciences. With a Master's in Petroleum Geosciences and a current position as a Lecturer/Fellow in the Department of Geosciences at the University of Indonesia, my academic and professional journey has equipped me with a deep understanding of geological processes and their applications.

These experiences have not only enhanced my communication and leadership skills but also fueled my passion for education and knowledge dissemination. My involvement in various research grants, such as the University of Indonesia Research (PIT-9 Grant) and Applied Research for Higher Education (PTUPT Grant), reflects my commitment to advancing scientific understanding. Additionally, my participation in organizational activities, including serving as Public Relations for the Indonesian Society of Petroleum Geologist and volunteering as a teacher for Kelas Inspirasi Jakarta 7, underscores my dedication to community engagement and knowledge sharing. Imperial College London's Environmental Technology program stands out to me as the ideal platform to further enrich my expertise and contribute meaningfully to environmental solutions. The program's interdisciplinary approach aligns seamlessly with my research interests, and I am eager to collaborate with renowned faculty and fellow students who share a similar passion for sustainable technologies. In conclusion, my academic achievements, research endeavors, teaching experience, and active involvement in both academic and organizational realms have prepared me for the challenges of the Environmental Technology program. I am confident that my unique blend of academic rigor and practical experience will make a valuable contribution to the vibrant academic community at Imperial College London. Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the opportunity to contribute to and learn from the diverse and dynamic community at Imperial College London.

Terus kan aku pengen punya konteks lebih spesifik ya, jadi kumasukkin promptnya:

Enrolling in this course will help me gain new knowledge and exposure to environment technology management which will make me better equipped for my upcoming career task.

(Jujur masih gatau ngapain gua pake thank you segala tapi ya emang pengen being nice aja sama machine emangnya gaboleh)

Replynya gajauh beda tapi ada 2-3 additional sentences dan new paragraph yang emang specifically address the issue of path pivoting/redirection :

(Akhirnya sama)

Jujur setelah ngerjain ini jadi ngerasa bingung sih guna gua proofreading teh buat apahhh, karena menurutku sudah cukup personalised??? Atau ini bergantung dengan input juga kali ya. Input CV-ku lumayan banyak, jadi bisa di-buat mayan bagus dan emang ini betulan PS-nya si Noni, rasa Noni-nya keluar banget Walaupun masih bisa di-upgrade lagi sih. Ini result yang sekarang udah 75% lah. Kalau mau ditambahin bumbu-bumbu passion motivasi coming from personal experience jadi lebih tasty lagi. Ini pun bisa ditambahin di prompt ChatGPT.

Barusan ku-masukkin lagi:

Put more additional motivation: I have more interest in the environment, especially after I recognised many environmental problems in the geology field while doing my research that are not well addressed. It is getting very concerning at this rate, so I want to do something about it.

Jawaban dari ChatGPT:

JUJUR, kalau mau ku-tailor lagi tambahin “di dept ini ada professor x yang papernya kujadiin references di thesis s2 aku, meeting them and having an in-person discussion with them would be an honour for me and enriching my experiences in the academia”, terus how “one of the elective course yaitu xxx would help me solving problem x that I faced during my research in xxx”, “With our limited resources here in Indonesia, we still couldn’t be able to work with method x, but this course offers the training in this specific method”, “selain taking benefits from this course, I would also be able to offer fresh perspective from developing nations point of view”, “I also can offer cultural exchange”.

Buset banyak banget “bumbu” yang bisa ditambahin di prompt dan itu PS betulan jadi bisa SUPER DUPER personalised? LUAR BIASA CHAT GPT. Tapi ya emang pelajarannya dari experiment-ku di atas barusan adalah: ChatGPT is a machine anyway that help shaping our text to be in a readable version, grammatically correct, dan bahkan bisa di-custom juga to give certain nuance/vibe. Yang paling penting balik lagi tetap aja ke input prompt-nya. Isi teksnya. Yang adalah kita sendiri yang pikirin. Si ChatGPT bisa bikin kenampakannya bagus, tapi kalau ingredientsnya busuk (jahat juga gua pakai term), atau kurang bagus lah ya kualitasnya, ya hasil akhirnya juga kureng aka biasa-biasa aja.

Nah gimana supaya ingredientsnya/inputnya bagus? Ya harus banyak-banyak baca…. Membaca adalah kunci… Makanya ku bingung banget kalau ada orang yang mau nulis PS terus tapi pas kutanya “udah berapa PS yang pernah kamu baca? Ada personal favorite PS tertentu nggak yang kamu pengen jadiin reference?” nda bisa jawab, ya bubar sodara-sodara. Betulan pelajaran yang betul-betul ku internalised selama PhD ini adalah: kalau mau menulis bagus,tipsnya adalah banyak baca, terus latihan gapernah berhentiiiiii, dan iterasi. Berapa kalipun yang dibutuhkan. Bisa 10x, 5x kalau udah expert, ratusan kali kalau masih beginner, pokoknya sampe jijik sampe mau muntah gamau buka lagi file wordnya, nah itu berarti tandanya u udah siap untuk submit.

Makanya kadang perlu waktu lama banget buat orang nulis PS tu bukan masalah nulisnya. Pake ChatGPT tadi itu juga 10 detik selesai. Tapi mikirin kontennya, nyari ingredientsnya, bacanya, researchnya. Semangat teman-teman semua. Dah gitu dulu aja bacotnya hari ini. Ku kayanya in 30 mins mau wrap up dan pulang. Habis ini mau ke RSL ada buku yang mau ku pinjam, terus pulang ajadeh. Mampir Sainsbury dulu beli tissue toilet. Sampe rumah ngelaundry.

Selamat menjalani minggu, teman-teman tumblrku!
