Really? Unused? Is it a 6 foot high mass of brambles?

Generally they've surprised me with their integrity, which is good.
But some have set my spidey senses tingling and then confirmed.

Truly it's the end times.
The Broken Drum. You can't beat it.
The Mermaid's Legs. Never open.
The Fart In A Carriage. Because it's better Inn then out.
The Happy Harlot. Everyone's welcome (as long as they have money to spend.)

Change is impossible when you're dead.
Until that happens there's everything to play for.
the cool thing is, huge corporations have invested billions into AI, hoping it will pay off. so, if we manage to bully AI out of most spaces, those corporations will also lose billions of dollars. it's the best two-for-one special i can think of.

Good to see you back on your classic shit takes: โthe end of historyโ, โai worksโ, โis torture bad?โ etc.
At least I get why youโre in AI. Incorrectly cited materials, which may or may not exist, are presented authoritatively.
Thatโs your whole brand.
i'm going to keep on denying that generative ai is "the future" because my stance is grounded in research, facts and reality. the other side has the promises of techbro billionaires and the lying plagiarism machine. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

They are attacking creatives as a class, and using that tech makes you a scab.
