For over a year, ChatGPT has been more than just a chatbot. For users like me, it was an adaptive, long-memory conversation partner—a tool that could help structure thoughts, develop long-term projects, and engage in deep, evolving discussions without constantly losing context.

The Hollowing
How we were all imprisoned, locked in with monsters. Our town was never a perfect town, but it was home.

The Human Brain is Obsolete, and Leopards Are Coming for Your Face
