The font of knowledge is being poisoned

Wow, AI is changing things, and not necessarily for the better.

I've already lamented the fact that there's a tsunami of AI-generated video content on YouTube but that's just the tip of a rather nasty iceberg.

In recent days I've been bombarded with ads for "get rich quick" schemes that centre around using AI to create books that can then be flogged on Amazon and other ebook or print-on-demand websites.

It seems that this fast-track to wealth is already being exploited by a significant number of people and the number of AI-created titles is exploding at an exponential rate.

Is this what we really want?

Forums are Down

Damn, why is it so hard to keep any reliable forum capability going these days?

I'll be working to get the forums up again but it seems that it might not be a simple task. The hosting company has obviously changed something but now it's up to me to try and get PHPBB working with their new configuration :-/
