Podcasts about dead robots

No matter the genre, no matter the plot, characters move, talk, and occasionally resort to fisticuffs when words don't work, or the writer gets bored. How do you incorporate action into your scenes? What about reader fatigue? How do you break up those action sequences to keep the reader from becoming numb? And how do you know when you've gone too far?

The implications of #chatgpt on the economy, particularly in knowledge economy—academic #research— is dumbfounding. I'm somewhat dumbfounded by this technology, and really cannot create coherent thoughts about where it is going to take the academic research career and the rest of the knowledge economy. i can seem that it will single-handedly change the #economy, but I don't know it won't feel being a positive or negative change. I'm actually somewhat nervous, for the first time, for employment in the knowledge economy. #Productivity is going to go through the roof, however, I think we will have to drastically change how academic research is governed in the rules of academic research. This is true of almost any part of the knowledge economy. We will soon see AI videos that are vastly more interesting than humans can possibly do. We will soon see AI being used for any human interface, including physicians, consultants, and anything that requires intelligence. AI I will replace humans. Are used to think that humans would go into the creative industries and do more interesting things that are human, but after observing chatgpt, I think it can do it better than even humans. I am truly, dumbfounded
