yes, this is why when you see actual artist time lapses (not ones where someone just hides the AI image they're tracing) there is a ton of time spent just on figuring out the blocking and fixing problems on a structural level. Slop is slop because it is noise without problem solving
Just a thing about this: a common statement in writing is that you can fix crap, but you can't fix a blank page.
I have heard AI apologists claim that this is why it's fine to generate a first draft.
Now, to be clear, fuck this.
But also: an AI draft is a fucking blank page.

I know I don’t talk about writing much. It is because I am writing so slowly.
But I want you to know that I am taking a part of this story that absolutely sucked and took me months to produce four of the worst chapters I have ever written and in the edit I figured out how to fix it.

A movie you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars or Trek), LotR, or Marvel.

Just an observation after a month on Linux:
The experience of just having your gui package tool install software at a click rather than the classic "google it, bum tri, bum trip, bum trip, score!" of finding software on Windows has just been so so rewarding!

SO 100th post here! Yay!
I'll take the time to lay out my feeling on switching to Linux. More specifically Garuda.
The whole experience has been interesting. I likened it to getting a new car with new features cuz that's the vibe I have had by and large.

Having compassion for others is strength. Having hope in the mist of anguish is not naivety. You do not forge a path through fascism by cutting down those around you who are filled with despair. You do it by lifting each other up. You do it with love.

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe.
Will we listen to his words today?

Seeing your recent vid from the other day that graph you showed looked familiar. Not a 1 to 1 but the divergengence points are to similar to be a coincidence right?
Just thought it was a neat correlation.

Truth in 160 characters!
They are horders. They have to be "the richest" of their counterparts. They don't give a shit about the rest of us!
This is why "trickle down economics" was always a lie to fuck the middle and lower class over.
Stop believing their lies!!! They never gave a shit about us and they never will!
