I don’t want to seem like an ass, but this bit of history we find ourselves in *will* be studied in the future.
Whole new theories of psychology will be founded.
Maybe that’s a good thing, long term.

If a cheap clicky button on a portable retro gaming system clacks loudly in the forest, and no one is around to hear, does it still wake your wife up from her slumber?

One thing you will never think after reading a great book or listening to a great album or seeing a great piece of art is, “I’m really glad this person remained cautious while they were making this and guarded against being perceived as weird.”

There are so many reasons to say no to generative-AI that have absolutely nothing to do with the quality of its output, even you’ve somehow convinced yourself that its quality isn’t unacceptably low.

So that's the lesson that pops up for me with AI stuff--when evaluating now, I look at whatever the focus is NOT on.
This isn't to say AI won't eventually be good enough to smooth out everything, but right now it can't. The tells are outside what the video/image wants you to focus on.

Thread on how to detect ai in that viral dog video
Yeah, I mean, I'm critical of any video nowadays that is trying to elicit an emotional response, especially when it's asking for subs at the end. It's weird that all the people seem to end up with the dog they want. And shelters are overflowing, where are the rooms full of people wanting to adopt?

OH is that quoted bit the cause of the day's issues? Gosh, here's the real secret.
Many writers don't need to pretend that they make their money from the book; they do make their money from the books.
They're just poor. They make as much money as their neighbors who are CNAs or Walmart greeters. 🧵
