Photographer, comics fan, museum lover, spend my time roaming the DC area. Ex-Texan. Impudent slattern hoping to upgrade to unscrupulous adventuress.

Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesnβt buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what heβs up to.
Guy says: βlooking for an obituary.β
Vendor says βthose are towards the back of the paper, comrade.β
Guy says: βnot the one Iβm looking for.β
I guess the Oscars big James Bond production was planned before the news of the Amazon takeover of the franchise came out.

It's when you ask Generative AI to create something new that the worst hallucinations occur and you desperately need a human in the loop to review and edit the output.
