Essentially, I think that LLM-generated dialogue only makes sense if you believe that the product of writing is words.
But the product of writing isn't words, any more than the product of justice is prisoners, or the product of love is weddings. The product of writing is meaning.

On top of all the other bullshit w/ AI being used for assets which is rightfully brought up, a pettier note for me is how, it was way more fun to me when devs would just grab random things around the office in order to scan for an asset.

Look at my new tiny hoofcat friends.
Our new senior minis are too adorable. 🥰 Right now they are still in the quarantine barn because they’ve had no recent vetting. We need to make sure they are free of all communicable parasites and viruses before incorporating them with our residents.

My phone bill is due tomorrow and car insurance for a car that doesn't work is due in a week. We're out of work until next month and could really use help getting these covered. My car will hopefully be working after Xmas, but we're hurting until then

As I sit here feeding another outdoor cat that could be a stray or someones pet....I get more pissed off.
Stop letting your cats be outdoor.
It's bad for their health.
If you can't handle entertaining your cat indoors, than dont have one.
Just ugh.Pisses me off so much.
Forever anti-outdoor cats.
