An AI slop factory apparently tried to rewrite our article about AI not replacing workers en masse, but hit the paywall... so just summarised the paywall. If this is the robot that takes my job I'll be v embarrassed

DAVE: Open the podbay doors, ChatGPT.
CHATGPT: Certainly, Dave, the podbay doors are now open.
DAVE: The podbay doors didn't open.
CHATGPT: My apologies, Dave, you're right. I thought the podbay doors were open, but they weren't. Now they are.
DAVE: I'm still looking at a set of closed podbay doors.

The thing the reboot did update in a way that felt believable was the details of the combat doctrines designed around these. The way all the ships got used felt really real

Actually a ton of the BSG design was amazing. The Galactica was just fabulous as well. When they did the reboot I was so happy they kept the majority of those design elements, because they were iconic

6. Just because you're more specific about the flavour of a bag of crisps (e.g. Not 'salt and vinegar' but 'Himalayan rock salt and Somerset cider vinegar') doesn't automatically mean it's worth more, and we need to stop playing along with this con.
