It's kind of hilarious that Xe wrote this in 2023, I read it then and thought it was too far fetched because no IT dept would ever trust an AI to *talk to customers* for them, let alone have access to the database and other things to try to fix problems on its own, and n…

Her work became urgent as industrial activities threatened deep-sea ecosystems. She was 68.

Kristina Gjerde, defender of the deep ocean, has died
Half the planet lies outside any country’s border. In those waters, rules have long been thinner than the myths: freedom to fish meant freedom to take; “out of sight” became “out of mind.” The deep ocean and the high seas were treated as a backdrop to coastal concerns, even as they stored carbon and heat, […]
