    If you have retreated to physical books because the internet is too full of AI slop, bad news — now they’re shredding the books to feed their AI slop machines.

    20 years ago, almost all of New Mexico's electricity generation came from coal and gas.

    In April of this year, that share dropped to 31%. This was the lowest share ever recorded, as wind and solar surged to 69%.

    April 2006: 94%
    April 2016: 78%
    April 2026: 31%

    A glut of AI-written fiction is drowning out human authors, new research shows. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/28/b...
    Screenshot of text from NYT story by Alexandra Alter: 

Jess Michaels, a historical romance writer, has released 117 novels since she started writing full time in 1999, most of them self-published. She’s built a devoted readership, and has had 10 USA Today best sellers.

But lately, sales have been so dismal that she might stop publishing.

“The glut of the A.I. work makes discoverability very difficult,” Michaels said. “You’re talking about directly pirating my work, putting it into an engine so that you can produce a ‘Jess Michaels-type book,’ and then glutting the market with it.

“I cannot tell you how soul-crushing it is,” she added. “It essentially erases actual authors.”

    While I often agree with she is wrong about the buyout of PNM. Blackstone’s major interest is making money for it’s investors. Owning our public utility will give our unparalleled solar future to disinterested investors who do not care about equity or public good or your rates.
    A column in the Albuquerque journal on Sunday, July 26, 2026 where Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham claims that the PRC is enough to stop the greed of Blackstone. Her opinion piece is titled “Private capital, public oversight:
Let's let the
PRC do its job”
