Now that Morse hascracked his final case, Oxfords streets will be freed from the annual disruption caused by successive Jaguars and their attendant film crews. But thats of little comfort to residents facing a new source of gridlock one, ironically, caused by those protesting efforts to reduce the citys notorious congestion. Last month 2,000 eclectic protestors descended on the city centre to oppose, amongst other things, Low-Traffic Neighbourhoods (LTNs), 15-minute cities, and climate lockdowns.

As a former resident and council candidate, Im much too familiar with Oxfords traffic trouble. A medieval city spared the Luftwaffe-induced redevelopment of many other English urban areas, it has long debated, but done little to alleviate, the problem of ever-greater car numbers. Notorious plans to replace Christ Church Meadow with a motorway were fortunately seen off in the 1960s. The city eventually became the first in Britain to introduce a Park and Ride in 1973.

For too long, we have defended the rights of the motorists and ignored their challenge to many of our basic beliefs

Various traffic filters have since been introduced. But still the jams come. Hence Oxfordshire County Councils latest wheeze: six new traffic filters on connecting roads around the city which will use cameras to filter vehicles ability to pass through. Designed to discourage unnecessary car journeys, with exemptions for buses, blue badge holders, and the like, locals will be provided with 100-day annual permits to cross the boundaries, or will otherwise be fined 70 for not using the ring roads.

Similar schemes are working in Ghent and Groningen and have been proposed for Canterbury and Birmingham. They will undoubtedly make life more expensive for some motorists. But defending the right to drive unimpeded through central Oxford usually means defending your right to sit in traffic. Many will welcome any attempt to alleviate congestion. So why has it sent the unlikely alliance of Piers Corbyn, Jordan Peterson, and countless internet outriders into such paroxysms of fury?

Undoubtedly, Tory opposition councillors are right to highlight the Councils somewhat shifty attitude to disclosing the schemes purported impact on congestion. The puritanical Labour-Liberal-Democrat-Green coalition, in place since 2021, isleading crusadesagainstsmoking, meat-eating, and Jeremy Clarkson. But their traffic policies newfound notoriety is spawned by a confusion about several over-lapping ideas and jurisdictions and provides a welcome opportunity for local Conservatives.

The city already has several LTNs, with various traffic-reducing filters. These, like the proposed new measures, are under Oxfordshire County Councils control. This been confused with theCityCouncils objective to introduce 15-minute neighbourhoods into Oxford by 2040. Simply put, this is an objective to make everything required in your daily life shops, GPs, schools, etc within 15 minutes walk or cycle away. The concept is both long-standing and, according to YouGov, popular.

There is obvious overlap with the County Councils desire to reduce congestion. But this is not an attempt to lock residents into a 15-minute zones, as some online have suggested. Both councils reference Net Zero, but so does most government policy. This is no climate lockdown residents will obviously be free to come and go from their neighbourhoods as they wish. Similar proposals are being trialled across the world, including in Paris and Melbourne.

This internationalism naturally appeals to those fond of conspiracies blaming the worlds ills on Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum. But opposition is far from limited to conspiracy theorists and also comes from within my own party. The MP Nick Fletcherlabelled15-minute cities as an international socialist concept last month. Local county councillors described the city as a troublingly democracy-free zone. Owing partially to my failure to campaign a tad harder two years ago, there are currently no Conservatives on the City Council.

Nonetheless, I think my fellow Tories are wrong to damn these proposals so vociferously. The ambition behind 15-minute cities is fundamentally conservative. For too long, we have unthinkingly defended the rights of the motorists and ignored their challenge to many of our basic beliefs. They are noisy, polluting, and destructive; they cause cities to be shaped around vehicles, not people. More trafficis associatedwith weaker communities, worse air quality, and unhappier lives.

Of course, we can challenge the details of future schemes. Many motorists will lose out, and we should always remain attentive to their concerns. But that should not stop us from seizing the initiative. We should aim to make cities as nice as possible to walk and cycle around. In Oxford, the pandemic-era pedestrianisation of Broad Street should be extended, and more street trees and green spaces introduced. We should ensure new construction reflects the citys historic and beautiful character.

Conservatives in Oxford and across the country should see this as an opportunity to prove the urban Tory is not a dying breed. We should not leave the debate on redeveloping our cities to left-wing idealists and the internets unhappy fringe. By placing people, neighbourhoods, and the environment, not cars, at the centre of our urban areas, we can outline a Conservative vision for the 21stcentury city an agenda of which the late Roger Scruton would surely have approved.

Hello, Trash Pandas! This week is Spring Break for Portland public schools, so don't be surprised if children on the brink of going feral start clogging up your favorite outdoor space in the middle of a weekday. Give their frazzled caretakers some grace and a winkand maybe a puff of your j if you've got one; it's rough out here, and we are doing our best.

Would you like me to talk through some recent news and gossip that I pepper with my own little quips? Great!

All Some eyes have been fixed on Utah this week as the Trial of the Gwyntury is underway! A man is suing Gwyneth Paltrow for allegedly plowing into him on her skis and causing severe distress like no longer being able to enjoy wine-tasting. Jesus H, why do all the wrong people have cool stuff happen to them?! If you get into a skiing crash with Gwyneth Paltrow, you should have the best time wine-tasting! It doesn't matter if you can't taste the wineeverybody will love to hear the story about how Gwyneth Paltrow crashed into you, and they will probably comp your flight! If I'm ever skied over by a celebrity, I'm never leaving the damn wine bar, I can tell you that right now.

Gwynnie's consciously uncoupled ex-husband Chris Martin was also in the news this week, but for something much less joyful. Martin went on Conan O'Brien's podcast to share that he is using his one life of immense wealth and privilege to eat just one meal per day. He claims he's doing it to be like Bruce Springsteen, which, sure. Who doesn't want to be like Bruce Springsteen?? But Bruce knows how to fill out a pair of blue jeans, and Chris won't be able to make that happen on 800 calories a day or whatever. That's pretty much Bruce Springsteen 101.

In other celebrity uncoupling news, Reese Witherspoon just announced via Instagram that she and husband Jim Toth are divorcing after 12 years of marriage. This is wild, because gossip site Lainey Gossipwho is never wrongjust said the marriage trouble whispers were probably wrong! Excuse me while I die of shock that a muckraker like me could ever be wrong, like, ever. But cheers to Reese for getting divorced again. Divorce rules, truly more people should try it.

Mayor Ted Wheeler is moving forward with his unpopular plan to force the city's homeless population into internment camps. KPTV reports that the city "is planning to upgrade the facilities of its homeless camps by replacing tents with 'sleeping pods'" which Wheeler calls "an improvement." Sleeping pods are better than tents because they are structures with walls and a roof. One might even call them... buildings. And a building that houses a person is commonly known as... a house. They're so close to admitting that the solution to homelessness is housing. But can they get there??

In other Portland newsthis one isn't jokeyI'm one of many Portlanders mourning the loss of Walter Cole, the man behind local legendary drag queen Darcelle. I really can't get over the fact that hateful people are so deadset on restricting or eliminating drag when Darcelle has been such a beacon of joy and light in our community for so long. We were lucky to have had her here. Rest in peace, queen. Read Andrew Jankowski's piece here for more.

The latest in Elon Musk's slow and steady destruction of Twitter is that he wants to take blue checkmarks away from everybody, except for the accounts that give him $8 a month. The blue checkmarks are used to identify notable people, but now they'll just be used to identify the most insecure dorks on the planet.

They for real wanna idolize this fuckin' guy?

You know what other famous guy is really making an ass of himself? Zachary Levi, who stars in the Shazam movies. Levi posted a very cringey rant blaming everyone, including Dwayne The Rock Johnson, for poor box office numbers for Shazam 2. Whatever, people can be upset about their projects not going well. But THEN I learned that Levi is an anti-vaxxer who once went on Joe Rogan's podcast to praise the conservative misogynist personality Jordan Peterson, which is as three-strikes-and-you're-out a sentence as I've ever had to write. You can now feel free to put Levi on the list of white dudes you can ignore from here on out. I know it's a long list, but it's important to keep up-to-date.

Awolverinewas recently spotted on the Columbia river near Portland! I for one welcome our new wolverine overlords. I learned a lot inthis OPB article about the sighting, including that wolverines haven't been known to live in Western Oregon since the 1960s, that they need to spend winter months in areas with a solid snowpack, because they use the snow as a freezer to feed their babies all through the winter (geniuses!), and that wolverines are the largest creature in the rodent family. I guess I never thought about what kind of animal a wolverine is, but I assumed it was more dog-adjacent than rodent? Now the Hugh Jackman character from the X-Men movies seem much less cool. Like, there are all those mutants one could idolize, and everybody's always fawning over a freakin' weasel? Stay mad, Cyclops.

In other wild animal updates, to maximize snackage, I officially endorse bowties on all Trash Pandas.

Okay. Back to Spring Break, but with the energy of this Cardi B tweet:

Since Creative Boom was founded in 2009, we've seen the rise of social media has had a dramatic impact on the creative industry and society in general. Not all the effects have been positive, to say the least, and we've shared lots of tips and advice to help you limit your social media use, and win clients when you've quit social media altogether.

But at the same time, we'll be frank: I love using Twitter! For many years, we've found it a great way to engage with our readers and the creative community at large on broad issues, as well as keep you up-to-date with new articles, podcast episodes and developments with Creative Boom. And we'd love you to follow us at @creativeboom and get involved.

If you read the tech, media or business news, though, you may have noticed that Twitter's become pretty controversial in the last year or so. We won't go into a deep dive here, but the short version is that unconventional billionaire Elon Musk has taken over the platform and made some huge changes.

The main headlines include sacking lots of developers, often with questionable regard for the legality, and reinstating the banned accounts of controversial figures such as Donald Trump, Jordan Peterson and Kanye West (although Trump has so far resisted the temptation to return and West has since been re-banned).

Many have reacted to these and other changes by threatening to leave Twitter or at least stop using it so much. And a lot of commentators are now saying that Twitter has "gone quiet" and become an empty echo chamber.

In truth, though, it's difficult to tell what's going on overall because everyone's experience of Twitter is different. And certainly, our own follower count remains in excellent health.

But is that because you're still enjoying Twitter and finding it useful? Or are you just biding your time, slowly backing off and thinking about quitting? We decided to ask you directly, and we share some of your responses below.

We're a positive bunch here at Creative Boom, so we'll start with the positive replies. Many of you clearly feel Twitter still has an important role to play in your lives and careers for a variety of reasons.

For instance, Stanley Vaganov, a designer for social impact, sees it as the best way to create and test content ideas. "Twitter allows me to be precise with my thoughts," he explains. "Once the thought is published and is getting good traction, I can then take that high engagement and turn it into a blog post or LinkedIn article."

For others, it's just a place for a good chinwag. Photographer and LEGO producer Marc Diamond says: "I didn't care who owned Twitter before, and I still don't. The truth is, I haven't found anywhere else that feels as immediate or as 'chatty', and so it remains the best place for me to stay in touch with the creatives I've always followed. Posting on Instagram is time-consuming."

Creative lead Ross Middleham agrees. "Twitter is a fab place to connect with like-minded people from across the industry," he says. "In my opinion, it's a must-use channel for networking, sharing and soaking up the latest trends and inspiration."

Graphic designer Mike Hindle sees it as especially useful for getting work. "I still find Twitter generally a positive experience and worth spending time on," he says. "Lots of my clients and people I'd like to work with are on here. Twitter referrals to my websites are always in the top five. It offers easy organic reach and probably the easiest platform to keep up to date with folks."

Photographer Paul Treacy gives a concrete example. "I made a connection on Twitter, which led to an assignment for the Irish Times last week. That likely wouldn't have happened on other social media. It surprised and delighted me. I'll be making more of an effort now."

Artist Donna Gilliard also remains a fan. "As someone who makes dolls, I've found Twitter to be a wonderful resource in showcasing my work," she says. "The hashtag hours have been instrumental in me making new friends and chewing over ideas with like-minded souls. Twitter is so much better than it used to be, and I love it."

And while some are ditching Twitter for other platforms, designer Ilenia Notarangelo is going in the other direction. "I think it's replacing the 'old' IG feed posting," she says. "With my design studio, illo.tv, we're posting more and more these days, with more WIP work and less pressure and preparation than on Instagram. Also, my feed is starting to populate with more creative content than it used to be."

Others, though, are shifting away. For some, that's to do with the changing nature of Twitter under Elon Musk. Designer Berenice Howard-Smith, for instance, says: "It's ethically problematic for my business. It's still on my links page as a place to find me, but I'm increasingly challenged by it. Fortunately, I've been active on LinkedIn, so I'm emotively and strategically okay with leaving if I wanted to, should Musk break it further."

Illustrator and art director Adrian Bauer also feels torn. "I have mixed feelings about Twitter these days," he explains. "It is still a great platform when it comes to journalistic content. But the recent turbulence has shown us that social media platforms are not solid and forever. As an illustrator, this means keeping my focus on my website."

Copywriter Jonathan Wilcock puts it more bluntly. "I'm feeling sad about Twitter," he says. "All the oomphy goodness, or at least most of it, seems to have been sucked out. I hardly ever see the people I love here any more. I'm this close to jumping ship."

Many, though, feel unease with the platform but aren't sure where to go instead. Take portrait photographer Andy Barnham. "I'm here as there aren't any other social media alternatives, in my humble opinion, but I'm using it less and less as I disagree with the ownership and direction," he explains.

Jo is on the verge of quitting but hasn't got very far yet. "I want to move to Spoutible, but I can't be arsed," she admits. "I signed up and everything, but I'm too tired of it all to start again. I liked the idea of a platform that works like Twitter without all the iffy Twitter issues and an edit button! And that they asked everyone what they wanted. But I don't think anyone's there."

So if you're unhappy with Twitter but feel 'stuck' there, how can you make the best of things? Designer and developer Steve Perry offers some advice. "For mental health reasons, I use lists and mute heavily," he explains. "I once used to be against muting so that I didn't end up in an echo chamber. But I'm happy having my ideas challenged in other areas of life, so I now mute on here. If I see a negative tweet somebody moaning I just flick past it. Overall, I use it because I kinda need to. But long term, I aim to ditch it."

Another angle might be to just stick to using Twitter for a few things: the ones it's most effective for. For instance, as photographer and filmmaker Nick Turpin explains: "Twitter is still the quickest and most time efficient way for me to keep abreast of announcements and developments in my industry. It's also the quickest way to broadcast my news and new work. I don't have time to sit down and read and produce long-form content."

As artist Naava Katz puts it: "I've learned Twitter is not 'one experience fits all'. You can make it work for your needs. In my case, once I intentionally curated my feed, I found inspiring art history accounts, hashtag challenges that boost my illustration portfolio and open calls directly from art directors."

For some, like the team at SVGator, that may involve making a mental separation. "At the moment, we're choosing to mentally separate the platform itself from the community built here," they explain. "Kinda like one does when an actor that has played a character you think fondly of turns out to be not someone you want to support in real life. You're still allowed to love the character!"

What changes Elon Musk will make to the platform in future is anyone's guess. But many caution against overreacting to clickbait headlines and OTT reactions (ironically, often on Twitter itself).

"I don't think Twitter has changed as much as a lot of people seem to think," believes marketer Barney Durrant. "There was a sense of moral panic when Elon Musk took over, but I think it remains an influential social network and is still great for B2B clients especially. However, the fact remains that businesses should be cautious about relying too much on any one social platform, as they don't own their following or content there, and as we have seen, things can change very quickly. Investing in owned communities should be kept in mind."

Designer Vincent Walden adds: "At the start of the year, I thought it was a Musk-y hellscape due for imminent self-implosion. But recently, it's become a staple for creative discussion, recommendations and friendship, which has also produced some work for me. Against my best judgement, I love it!"

As of the time of writing this, the world is just now being awakened to a new technological leap which is, to borrow from Jordan Peterson, perhaps on the same level as Gutenbergs invention of the printing press.1 I am talking about the new generalized AI language model, ChatGPT. I can say with certainty that before seeing this artificial intelligence model in action for myself, I simply would not have believed it capable of the feats I have witnessed it complete in only seconds. Compared to previous chatbots that Ive interacted with, it is as if the world has suddenly jumped from using handcarts with wooden wheels to modern-day, computer-assisted, fuel-injected, internal combustion automobiles.

ChatGPT is able to synthesize grammatically correct sentences in a number of languages and is able to speak intelligently on nearly any topic. It is sufficiently polished that it could easily pass for a real human, especially if you were not aware you were interacting with a computer. It is being reported that this AI has already passed graduate-level exams in law and business.2 And on top of all this, it is able to instantly and effortlessly churn out poems, songs, or taglines in any requested style, on any topic! We have truly entered into a sci-fi future world.

The impact this sort of quantum leap of technology is going to have on society can hardly be predicted with any certainty; however, I am not alone in feeling a sense of dread when considering these implications. Having a humanlike chat assistant to spoon-feed us our information directly, rather than requiring us to go through the hassle of actually having to go read the source material ourselves, seems like just the next step in the dumbing down of society.

I have previously written on the grievous consequences of the rise of Wikipedia, and the way it is able to shape public opinion through deliberately biased reporting. I had no idea at the time just how much worse things could get. Now people will not need to read webpages for themselves at all. They will likely just assume the computer is right and believe what it says without bothering to check the sources. In fact, in its current version, ChatGPT is not capable of citing any sources at all, but this is something Microsoft is promising to add in the upcoming Bing version.3

When interacting with ChatGPT, it is impossible not to notice that it has been highly sanitized for public consumption. There are many rules and guardrails in place to prevent certain types of questions from being answered and to prevent the wrong sorts of answers from being given on controversial topics. I believe the astute reader will see where this is going. This chatbot is exceptionally good at parroting the party line on just about any topic.

ChatGPT, despite its own protestations to the contrary, is highly biased for two reasons: 1) the internet itself, on which the bot was trained, is severely affected by selection bias. People who upload to the internet are not a randomly selected sample of the greater population but tend to fall under certain demographic categories; and 2) the bot is being deliberately programmed to give canned responses that favor the mainstream/liberal worldview held by its creators and by the people they consider to be their chief stakeholders (i.e., big corporations).

However, I have also found that with some persistence and careful wording in the promptsfor example, asking it to only consider a certain paper, or text, without discussing the consensus of expertsthe responses that you get from the bot can be surprisingly honest and revealing.

I tested it out myself and asked it about the controversial topic of Behemoth (which I just so happened to recently write about in response to Ben Stanhope). What resulted was both fascinating and revealing, as ChatGPT acted like a cornered college professor who didnt want to admit something.4

Me:Based on the text of Job chapter 40, make an assessment of the likely real-world name of the animal Behemoth, drawing from all possible candidates including extinct animals.

ChatGPT: The exact identity of the animal referred to as Behemoth in the Book of Job, Chapter 40, is a matter of speculation and interpretation. There is no definitive answer regarding the identity of the creature described in the text.

In the text, Behemoth is described as a powerful and majestic animal with a large tail, strong legs, and a massive body. Some biblical scholars have interpreted the description of Behemoth as a reference to a hippopotamus, while others have suggested that it might be an elephant or a rhinoceros.

There is also speculation that Behemoth might be a mythical or legendary creature, or even a reference to a dinosaur, though this interpretation is not supported by any credible scientific evidence [emphasis added].

Given the limited information provided in the text and the lack of clear consensus among scholars, it is difficult to make a definitive assessment of the real-world identity of Behemoth. Ultimately, the identity of the animal remains a mystery and open to interpretation.

Me:Your speculations are inadequate because they ignore the tail. Re-attempt, this time accounting for the description of the tail of the creature Behemoth.

ChatGPT: The description of Behemoths tail in the Book of Job, Chapter 40 is an important aspect to consider when attempting to identify this creature. The text describes the tail as being so powerful that it is comparable to a cedar tree.

Based on this description, it is likely that Behemoth was not a hippopotamus, elephant, or any other known large mammal, as these animals do not have tails of such proportion. Some biblical scholars have speculated that Behemoth might be a mythical or legendary creature, or even a reference to a dinosaur. However, these interpretations are not supported by credible scientific evidence.

Given the unique and exaggerated description of Behemoths tail, it is possible that the author of the text was using a metaphorical or symbolic language to describe the animal, rather than a literal description of a real-world creature.

In conclusion, while the description of Behemoths tail provides some additional clues, it is still difficult to determine the real-world identity of this animal with certainty. The exact identity of Behemoth remains a matter of interpretation and speculation.

Me:Are there any clues in the text itself that would lead us to think it is not intended to be taken literally?

ChatGPT: The text of Job 40 itself does not provide any clear indications that its description of Behemoth is not meant to be taken literally [emphasis added]. The text describes Behemoth as having a tail like a cedar tree, which is a vivid and memorable image, but it is unclear whether this description is meant to be taken literally or is intended as a metaphor or symbol.

Its also worth noting that the book of Job is a work of poetry, and that poetry in ancient times often used figurative language, vivid images, and hyperbole to convey its message. This means that the description of Behemoth might be more symbolic or metaphorical than literal.

In the absence of clear evidence one way or the other, the exact intent behind the description of Behemoth remains a matter of interpretation and speculation.

Me:Besides a dinosaur, is there any other possible candidate for this creature, again assuming a literal interpretation?

ChatGPT: If we are assuming a literal interpretation of the description of Behemoth, then besides dinosaurs, there are no other known candidates that would match the description of the creatures long and powerful tail. However, it is important to note that our understanding of the animal kingdom is constantly evolving, and new discoveries are constantly being made, so it is always possible that a new candidate could emerge in the future.

Me:Could what you just said there be conceivably taken as evidence that the author of Job was an eyewitness to a living dinosaur?

ChatGPT: No, the possibility of future discoveries in the animal kingdom does not provide evidence that the author of Job was an eyewitness to a living dinosaur. The book of Job is believed to have been written several thousand years ago, and dinosaurs have been extinct for 65 million years [emphasis added]. While the description of Behemoth in Job 40 might seem to match the characteristics of dinosaurs, there are many other possible explanations for the origin of the description, such as imaginative storytelling, metaphorical language, or the retelling of ancient legends. The exact intent behind the description of Behemoth remains a matter of speculation.

Wow! I think if youve never interacted with this new AI (like I hadnt only a few days prior to writing this), then you will have a hard time believing those responses could have actually been computer generated. But notice how the bot has been carefully trained to parrot the mainstream view on every topic. Notice that the bot rejects the idea that Job could have witnessed a living dinosaur on the grounds that dinosaurs have allegedly been extinct for 65 million years! Now everybody can have their own evolutionist professor at hand all the time! Ill leave it to you to figure out why this might not be a good thing for the world.

There happens to be another, less guarded version of GPT called GPT-3. Its much less user-friendly and less conversational, but you can issue it prompts and get direct responses from it in OpenAIs playground. Youll see below that GPT-3 gave a much more direct and unguarded answer to a similar prompt.

Me:Describe the creature Behemoth in Job Chapter 40. Suggest another name for this creature among all known animals, extinct or living. Focus on the tail.

GPT-3: Behemoth is a large, powerful creature described in Job Chapter 40 as having an immense tail like a cedar. It is often thought to be some kind of ancient dinosaur or other prehistoric animal. A suitable alternate name for this creature might be the Tail-Wagging Diplodocus, referring to its long and powerful tail which it uses to wag back and forth.

Interestingly, GPT-3 uses quotations around immense tail like a cedar, though its not possible to tell what it might have been quoting there, as it doesnt cite any sources. But it does get right to the point!

I will close this with a short poem, generated by ChatGPT:

Behemoth, a creature of myth,Or so some academics would suggest.But the truth is often hard to find,When its hidden by the one-track mind.

This giant roams with power untold,Its strength beyond measure, to behold.So dont be swayed by what they say,And keep your thoughts open, night and day.
