#Robotic #technology operating under Isaac #Asimov's Three Laws, which are definitive no matter what some so-called experts claim, could be extremely helpful. Helping #disabled people. Cleaning house. #Mental #health if utilized for privacy and facts, not a pretend friend. So much more.

I'm going to be like one of the humans in #Asimov's books that never left #Earth. I'm going to die being a #wheat #farmer if I have my way.

#Asimov's 3 Laws of #Robotics are correct. Does #Marcus still disagree? Who cares; he thinks you should have compassion for robots. You're only an expert if people believe you are. There is always the next best idea otw cuz #God is not lazy like #humans. IT is at hand. #Raising your #Sun everyday.

#MissKitty #RDaneelOlivaw I feel like the robot in #Asimov's #Foundation & #Robot books. #IA saw #AI comin' like dirty laundry.😹😹😹 He knew all the rules. You have idiots saying no those aren't the rules, and yes they are, and we wouldn't have #agentic #ai #attacks if we followed those rules.

#Amazon will be ending their #Kindle magazine service starting in Sept 2023.

After receiving the Jan/Feb 2023 issues I canceled my Kindle subscriptions to #Asimovs and #FandSF

I will subscribe via other vendors starting with the Mar/Apr issues.

#Locus magazine has the lowdown:

I have attached a table of the magazines affected as listed by Locus and the vendors that are linked from the magazine's website.

January's Locus just arrived. It contains news that Amazon and Kindle are canceling all magazine subscriptions.

After September 2023, my subscriptions to #FandSF and #Asimovs will end.

Other 'zines affected are
#Analog #Clarkesworld #Lightspeed #FantasyMagazine #Nightmare #TheDark #Apex #GalaxysEdge and #Uncanny

If we all switch our subscriptions from Kindle to our favorite 'zines maybe they will see an increase in revenue.
