FOUND IT

tumblr post from magicmooshka on January 7:

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen Al for scriptwriting 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 Al 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 Al 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 Al will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

anti-genAI argument

I can't believe the best anti-genAI argument I've seen in months came from LinkedIn.

stockholm syndrome/misogyny

It's always funny to rediscover that Stockholm Syndrome exists because someone thought "what if we blame the women instead of admitting the police mishandled the situation".

Thinking about handheld consoles and what would be required for them to make a comeback, and I guess it would be hard to compete with smartphones nowadays.

I think they would have to be cheap. Like, really cheap, to entice people to buy on a whim. Development would have to be way easier, or more streamlined, than typical consoles, so people would make games for it, otherwise nobody would buy it.

Weird question maybe, but after reading an email do you:
- Delete it?
- Archive it?
- Leave it as read in the inbox?

I'm a bit curious about how people organize their stuff.

Randomly remembering this video, which is a montage about the 2014 Brazilian elections someone made... as if it were an anime opening. And imo they nailed the vibe.

That's like, the biggest proof we don't need AI to create fun shit.
