It’s a honeypot for bad guys

If you agree with Slacks that AI is “dumb and evil”, make sure you tell that to your doctor that when they use it to diagnose cancer in you or a family member.

Except it isn’t really. I think it’s all the lead in the water that makes them dumb.

Garbage in garbage out

It may be better than an author making assumptions, or they may not have time or resources to hire/ask a professional in that field to write those parts for them. This is the same discussion I see about people finding the right images and music they need. It’s not as easy or quick as it’s purported.

OK. People should continue to write. I’m not discussing vocational titles though, I replied to the OP (who has subsequently blocked me, perhaps as I didn’t take “get lost” as an imperative) because I found their decree a bit harsh and absolutist.

Not really. I can permit usage such as short passages inside a larger work, say if a character finds a document or message written by another character and it needs to be technically more accurate and thus realistic.

I’m not fond of their installer, it gave me some trouble on my old machine. Will give them one more chance on my new one.

Isn’t posting on social media an invitation for anyone to comment? Can you lock your posts here like on Threads? By the way, I don’t use AI anywhere near as much as you are implying.

I shouldn’t have to tell you this but I support creatives by helping them choose non-AI software if they want to, for example authors who want to record their own narration, video promo, book cover etc.

I’m getting the feeling that you aren’t really interested in my opinion. And in the long run neither of ours count.

I’m told AI uses power wantonly, but there you go screenshotting and uploading my own profile text.

A short form piece like a letter to an accountant or real estate agent?

Where did I say it was an accident?
Also some of them realize their previous work has been used to train too. They are now part of the ecology.

I didn’t intend to come across as discouraging.
Just sharing notes.
All the best.

I used to work for academics (students to esteemed alumni) and many of them don’t like being told of a new or better way to do something. Because they’ve been quick learners all their lives they tend to have an “I’ll figure it out” attitude. But they don’t always figure out best practice.

It’s gonna be hard to avoid. Plus a lot of people are using it daily on their phones so why would it be fair to shun a writer for using it too, as long as it’s not for longform pieces.

They said people were nicer here.
Do you do high-school style teasing to everyone whose jokes don’t land with you?

Thank you for the warning; they’re not so kind on Threads.
I was trying to be amusing/humorous but it appears to have touched a nerve. I’ll go away now.

If people are cheating their way into professions:
For Engineers, planes drop from the sky, bridges collapse.
Medical: more people die
Humanities: people… argue with each other more?

That’s funny. I’d say it was that the episode [spoiler alert]

has a “happy” ending.
Can’t you just not use the fake eyes thing?

I was just trying to grab a screenshot of the whole main user interface without installing the app, and neither the app store or your site has such a thing. Would you be able to point me in the direction of one?

Hi, I am going to add this to the next post of my blog and I was wondering if as it is Open Source if the audio produced by the app could be used in commercially sold compositions, assuming they are part of an overall piece.

So to get more detail… am I right in remembering there were several different middle segments with different solos? There is definitely a soprano sax or clarinet one for one of the other numbers.

Why is this done as two batches of 15 rather than 1-30?

I saw them live once. Excellent show, lots of energy and ne’er a dull moment.

I never finished it, and recently I watched a walkthrough on Youtube. I never would have solved most of those puzzles.
But I did finish The Fool’s Errand, so there’s that.

I feel like a lot of the complaints about technology I read daily could fall under this term, as many are due to mistunderstandings that are easily mitigated merely by reading the articles or manuals by the various vendors.

When Apple stops updating their hardware people cry “planned obsolescence”. Sony owners say nothing.
