“If your position is *not* “everything is fine, no notes,” it might make a dram of sense to indicate that position a single time in a thread like this.

Hum...looks like that didn’t post. Anyhow I’ll sum up: The position you think I’m taking is one you’ve made up for me to take. I definitely have problems with, say, movie studios using ‘AI’ versions of actors and not compensating those actors fairly.

“I have indicated to you - multiple times - that your “everything is fine, no notes” approach to this is as nuance-devoid as the strawmen you love taking the piss out of in these comment sections.”

Dude I think you’re missing that ‘AI’ is going to take all of our jobs within 5 years max and then the capitalists will have all the money and stuff and bad things! Large Language Models are coming for your job! No matter what it is, ‘AI’ can do it for free and you, along with 300+ million people in this country, will…

Copywriters have, by and large, been doing shit jobs for the past 15 or so years.  If ‘AI’ can do it better, let ‘AI’ do it.

“The fact that some people are pretending that irresponsible rollout of AI will be totally fine”

All it presumes is that the lack of foresight continues until heads roll.

“Do people really believe that corporations, when faced with paying a human or using AI, will choose to continue paying wages when there’s a free option?”

Yeah he’s old school, out there in his back yard with a scythe cutting his grass.  Fuck lawn mowers, they put all the scythemen out of business and that destroyed the world...DESTROYED THE WORLD I SAY!!!

And we’re still here, weird...

Well you see, when one wants to take a molehill and convince others that it’s actually a mountain, a bit of creative license is necessary. 

You and me both, brother!

Mental health issues shouldn’t be stigmatized unless we’ve decided we kind of just don’t like the person who has them, then we can definitely use them for jokey purposes.

So yeah, it is certainly a thing.

Could be the actual cost. I was looking into seeing Stevie Nicks on her latest tour, tix were in the $300-1200 range.

I disagree, I think it’s an amazing book.  Chapterhouse, now that’s a messy novel.

God Emperor is totally doable with modern special effects.

Well now he’s out of a job, hopefully he finds work that he’s better at because he’s not good at writing reviews.

Looking up a copycat recipe I can’t even understand what you’re talking about: It’s got room temp cream cheese, sour cream and mayo! With three white flavors like that it has to be good!
