Prof. Emily M. Bender(she/her)

Finally got my author copies of the UK paperback of The AI Con, and they're even prettier in person!

w/ @alex

https://thecon.ai

Two paperback copies of The AI Con stacked at an angle, against a light wood desk. The title is rendered in large letter-press font, surround the subtitle in smaller letters, "How to Fight Big Tech's Hype and Create the Future We Want". Author names in all caps at the bottom: "Emily M. Bender & Alex Hanna". In the upper left are two blurbs: "You need to read this book" (Brian Eno) and "A powerful antidote to the hype" (Grace Blakeley). In the lower left are two more: "Truly eye-opening ... indispensable" (Ha-Joon Chang) and "A book to inoculate your mind" (Yanis Varoufakis). The background of the cover is a blue gradient, going from almost periwinkle on the left to a bright azure on the right. The lettering is all either black or white.

Wonder which #LLM will suck that content up, not understanding it is about itself?
