First day at my new placement school tomorrow! It’s a boarding school that has a fencing club so I’m sure it’s going to be a little bit different to my last school

the discourse on what jobs are acceptable to replace with generative AI reveals a lot about what we think of other people's jobs

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence lies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

The idea that Maduro requires our intervention but Netanyahu deserves our support is a hoot

Did something you were joking about in an upcoming video just happen in real life, thus ruining the joke?

I wish I could fully explain to you how one of our friends giving out Christmas presents to us all last night was perfect. He word for word (with the exception of changing names) did Pierce’s will reading from Community and it was perfection

I finished Expedition 33’s story, I feel like it has not improved my mental health in the slightest. Pierce Brosnan’s face with Andy Serkis’ voice is a bit weird.

I was sat in the makeup chair next to Antonia Thomas when filming Northern Soul, we didn’t say a word to each other but I had a lovely chat with the makeup artists
