And at least with Wikipedia you could use it to chase down primary sources. Unless something changed (I don't use AI and haven't been keeping up with the various flavors) i don't get that with the current LLMs.

Yup if you haven't read up on the issue it is a totally fair question to ask. I'm still thankful I happened to get a 12th gen in my laptop, and now when I get my next machine I know to go AMD barring a MAJOR proof of trustablility in any new Intel CPUs

12th gen should be fine. The entire issue is the 13th and 14th gen CPUs were destroying themselves, and even computers that got the update suffer from existing damage. I have a 12th gen laptop and it is running great still.

Well this is the most horrifying news I've seen today, and will be hard to top. Ugh.

Though I'll probably take this utter mess of a draft and build an outline based off of that and all the things I've learned (I already found scenes I never would have come up during outlining) before I start a "real" draft, but with all the knowledge this Zero Draft is giving me.
It feels so nice.

And now without the pressure of thinking a single word of this version will be seen by anyone, I'm writing. I was doing ~1200 words most days before I realized I could do more. Added a second session and now I'm up over 2500 and learning this story in a way outline never taught me.

I just don't understand the appeal. On one side you have a young man who's a massive sack of garbage, on the other hand anyone who expected it to be a good fight is an idiot. What was the draw?

It makes me so sad NaNo has tanked due to gross issues (both gross incompetence and other forms). I'll forever be grateful for it helping inspire me to write more but the org is no longer the one that got me going again.

Funny part is with a good art style they won't even look that much worse if at all, they just won't have the same polygon counts and won't have to fight the uncanny valley anymore.

Out of curiosity did you get an early copy or did it come out in Canada before the US? Only copies I see for his new book are a third party seller on Amazon, and no ebook copies (gotta not use up even more space with all the physical books I already have).
