With absolutely no expertise in Tarantino and lots of expertise in film bros, my theory has always been that he wasn’t the movie guru of that video store: one of his co-workers was and he has been coasting on regurgitating that guy’s taste for decades but he ran out ten, fifteen years ago.

"It actually took us a huge amount of time and effort to make something that sucked that everyone hated, more than it would have taken to make something real and good, bet you feel stupid for criticising us now"
The company behind the mcdonalds ad:
Imagine taking more time than it would take to do something traditionally. I bet it would take a builder longer to build a house out of jelly instead of brick, because jelly isn't brick.

One of the many reasons AI can't produce good writing is it can't hate its own writing. It can't think to itself "Maybe I'm illiterate" during the writing process. And that's essential

Every facet of generative AI has made my professional life worse, without question, but THIS specific aspect has been driving me NUTS.
Clients, who have made me toil for weeks over indescribably small details, are now approving & producing in-house commercial artwork that looks like a fever dream.

I feel the clients now using GenAI to do stuff and going "good enough" when they used to nitpick at every last detail is due to them finding out all those nit picky changes take time and work they cant be bothered to put in.

Movie you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars or Trek), LOTR or Marvel.
...That's not that hard in my opinion. How about adding no Disney?

My friend described our "season finale" of Mythic Bastionland as something that would have taken place on a stage rather than an IMAX screen, and there is something in there that has made me really proud of how we resolved our first myth.

All of the companies that make the software I use are increasing their prices, to account for an "investment" in AI.
I'm sat here imagining how my clients would feel if I added 30% to each invoice, because I "really got into gambling".

I didn't know this was a way you could handle things. I'm going to tell my boss I'm conducting a review into "me being given stuff to do" in order to tackle the rising demand for my services.
Considering Streeting's well stated belief autism, ADHD etc, along with mental health issues, are "overdiagnosed", I won't hold my breath for this doing anything other than being used to cut support, along with opportunities for diagnosis, for people who need it. #r4today
