You know this steamed chocobo is quite similar to a Shinra Burger and you call it a steamed chocobo despite it's obviously grilled.

Oh I can still make him somewhat sympathetic:
First pulling out of Vietnam, then Watergate, now this crap!

MadmanRB @madmanrb.bsky.social · 11d

Yeah, it's gonna burst sooner or later. Sure, like the .com bubble we will never be rid of AI, but when it comes out the other side it will not be the same as it is now.

But when? This fucker has breathed air long enough.

MadmanRB @madmanrb.bsky.social · 11d

Yes, it's called a bullet.
Too bad the ones with the guns are on his side.

He swore on the bible last term, didn't make him any more honest. Murderers and rapists swear on bibles all the time, it's not a guarantee of truth (speaking as an atheist here)

Yeah a war is bound to happen, sooner or later blood will spill.

Fine, let's give up and let the Tangerine tyrant win.

Except without a named curse like the curse of Bobby Layne.

The curse of the great Bambino moved to Seattle?

MadmanRB @madmanrb.bsky.social · 14d

Yeah, the Mariners may have finally broke the playoff drought, but the curse remains.

MadmanRB @madmanrb.bsky.social · 14d

So it's a stopgap use case as is with mine, no harm no foul.

MadmanRB @madmanrb.bsky.social · 15d

Perhaps.

MadmanRB @madmanrb.bsky.social · 15d

Indeed, but I would argue that GenAI can give a more direct example rather than say reading 10 pages in a book about coding.
Sure, one should never use its materials verbatim, as that's what AI bros do.

MadmanRB @madmanrb.bsky.social · 15d

That's at least how I apply GenAI in my own workflow, I have issues with grammar and punctuation and found GenAI useful in this use case.
It's actually helped me become a better writer overall, as I only use its content as a stop gap.

MadmanRB @madmanrb.bsky.social · 15d

Some people learn by both seeing and doing. For them, you can read 1000 books and go to 100 classes and still not learn a thing. Pair that with hands-on experience, different story.

MadmanRB @madmanrb.bsky.social · 15d

I use it for editing text, as it's one of the few things GenAI can do fairly well. If I want to make quick edits to something, It's not too shabby, as it's a glorified spellcheck.
Its capacity for grammar and text are the only thing of value for me.

MadmanRB @madmanrb.bsky.social · 18d

Well if we rerally must forbid any of these tools than let the typos, grammar/punctuation issues run wild and feree.
dont want to be a lazy spellheck bro,.

MadmanRB @madmanrb.bsky.social · 18d

Go have Photoshop hug you and tell you you're a special person.
I mean we can do this all day if you want.
Still not doing spellchecks for you, youre most welcome to my typos asnd grammar issues.

MadmanRB @madmanrb.bsky.social · 18d

Dude, I write many hours a day, take breaks, so I don't ruin my eyes and alleviate carpal tunnel. As for spellchecks fine lets not use them anymore any tpo I make from here on is on yopur head pal.
