Yes. Do you actually believe it is reasonable to take away from your blog posts a critical stance on AI?

If your definition of "critical" is "this stuff is all bullshit and doesn't work" then no.

If you're looking for coverage that talks about what doesn't work as well as things that do then I've been persistently providing that for four years now.

Plus prompt injection, AI misuse, AI ethics... I consider all of those part of my "beat" in covering this industry.

My post about Claude's latest system prompt (and how it was likely inspired by lawsuits filed against Anthropic) was on the homepage here just a few hours ago. Is that uncritical? https://simonwillison.net/2026/Sep/2/claudes-new-system-prom...
