This article is part of our coverage of the latest in AI research. Artificial intelligence research lab OpenAI made headlines again, this time with DALL-E 2, a machine learning model that can generate stunning images from text descriptions.

Sjoerd Knibbeler made this image for The Correspondent; the rest of the images in this piece are from his series 'Current Studies' (2013-2016), which you can read more about at the end of the article. “Seven hundred blockchaingers,” the man shouts at his audience.

Please note that this article includes images of human remains. Everything that’s been called Homo sapiens, isn’t.

Sometime last week, an editor who semi-ghosted me on an article I wrote several months ago texted me saying she wanted to talk. I didn’t want to talk to her because my mild annoyance had faded to almost nothing and the idea of hearing an apology felt wearying.

Cold open: Agent Zuboff receives her mission.

Main show: We politically cancel Shoshana Zuboff, author of The Age of Surveillance Capitalism, for advancing / mainstreaming a reactionary critique. Surveillance capitalism is not a “rogue mutation” of a normal capitalism. Surveillance is not the scapegoat that needs to be sacrificed so we can maintain a good version of consumption and commodification. We let you in on a little secret—one that Zuboff’s work is designed to obscure—the real horrors have been coming from inside capitalism all along.

Morozov’s article on Zuboff’s bad analysis of surveillance capitalism: https://thebaffler.com/latest/capitalisms-new-clothes-morozov

We live in a world where captains get arrested for saving people’s lives on the sea; where a person downloading scientific articles faces 35 years in jail; where people risk charges for bringing contraceptives to those who otherwise couldn’t get them.

A year ago, I came across an article by Stephen Elliott, a writer I’d admired.

Science is a network, each paper linking those that came before with those that followed. In an exclusive analysis, researchers have delved into Nature's part of that network. We explore their results, taking you on a tour of 150 years of interconnected, interdisciplinary research, as represented by Nature's publication record.

Explore the network yourself: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-019-03165-4 Read more: https://www.nature.com/collections/eidahgdici/
