Ted Chiang:
"The task that generative A.I. has been most successful at is lowering our expectations, both of the things we read and of ourselves when we write [...]. It is a fundamentally dehumanizing technology because it treats us as less than what we are: creators and apprehenders of meaning."

Gender Parity for Playwrights: What the Numbers Say In the first edition of our new column: a dive into some data about the coming theatre season across the U.S. and in NYC.

Women Playwrights Lose the Limelight After years of progress in diversity, many companies’ upcoming slates feature mostly, and in some cases entirely, male-writer lineups. The backslide has prompted an outcry.

“It feels emotional to us because this happened at Playwrights; it happened under Jeremy O. Harris. We feel these people to be our allies—they are our allies. Our issue is not with each other but with a system that considers one group central and the others as disposable.” @newyorker.com #TheaterSKY

Women are reclaiming their place in baseball Many Americans see baseball as a sport for men and softball as a sport for women. It wasn’t always this way in the US – and it isn’t that way in the rest of the world.

Love these stories about Bloomer Girls (I wrote a play about it) and how we're moving to more professional women's baseball leagues: theconversation.com/women-are-re...

Thanks!

Arlington National Cemetery stops highlighting some historical figures on its website Articles, photos and videos that are seen as promoting DEI will be removed under the new approach.

When I present to kids about history, we talk about how some history gets lost by accident - and how some is intentionally erased. That's when it falls on all of us to make sure those stories are shared. www.npr.org/2025/03/14/g....

Exclusive | Draft of Trump Executive Order Aims to Eliminate Education Department Secretary Linda McMahon would be directed to “take all necessary steps to facilitate the closure” based on “the maximum extent appropriate and permitted by law.”

Just restating the simple point: President lacks the constitutional authority to close a department created by Congress. Full stop. Both the creation and on-going funding of these Depts are LAWS not suggestions. This is criminal conduct. www.wsj.com/politics/pol... via @WSJ
