If you use gen AI, you're a lazy, unimaginative loser and dead inside. Sorry! No more excuses! We all know how these LLMs steal, how bad data centers are, that the whole point of this soon-to-be-popped bubble is to inflate stock portfolios & to devalue & degrade artists. Pay a goddamn artist.

Seeing every small business, be it a local restaurant, a moving company, whatever, all having AI logos and AI ads, really puts into perspective just how many artists are out of jobs now. All those little sustaining jobs where someone just needed a quick thing for $50 to $200 are just gone.

Have kept thinking all day about this story, full of starving moms and grandmothers trying to feed 3-6 kids each on virtually nothing and Republican men cheering and patting themselves on the back for kicking them off food stamps. Congrats, boys, you really did it

Seeing indie game devs make excuses for using gen AI the past couple years tells me they don't believe in what they're making. Limitations breed creativity. Gen AI is the plagiarist death of creativity & the belief in your own. And if you don't fully believe in your game, why should anyone else?

firing a bunch of people responsible for your good game, hiring some new people and forcing them to make something almost exactly like the old one, miraculously it’s just as good, and then firing a bunch of the new people because your company already ruined its own goodwill. masterful gambit sir

Really wish I could go viral on BlueSky. I created an app that merges Mutual Aid with Black Businesses: on the app, you can shop Black Businesses on 1 app, all Black Owned conveniently under 1 roof. On the same app you can see people struggling with overdue bills/rent/evictions etc & give them aid.

Something I’ve noticed is that it’s extremely easy to tell when erotica is written by AI because narratively the computer doesn’t know how to climax. It doesn’t know what’s actually horny but what combo of words are horny, leading to a story that’s just edging in circles with no build up or payoff

NEW: Fiction written by AI is easy to detect because it struggles with complex story structure, according to a new study. Researchers found that AI fiction has tells that go beyond the overuse of em-dashes and other obvious AI tropes and have more to do with the formulaic nature of the text itself.
