From the tone of the first message, I’m guessing that’s not the first off-by-one error in their relationship.

Nah, anyone that’s childish enough to ask something like that isn’t worth the effort.

That is precisely it. Generative AI is a tool, just like a digital canvas over a physical canvas, just like a canvas over a cave wall. As it has always been, the ones best prepared to adapt to this new tool are the artists. Instead of fighting the tool, we need to learn how to best use it. No AI, short of a true General Intelligence, will ever be able to make the decisions inherent to illustration, but it can get you close enough to the final vision so as to skip the labor intensive part.

That’s actually me removing semicolons from Python.

Future libraries still makes me laugh.

Impressive and unsurprising. As soon as you start getting complex libraries with multiple dependencies it becomes nearly impossible to review everything. At one time I had an interest in contributing to some AI libraries, but they’re a mess as soon as you go looking for points of improvement.

If you’re using ready-made solutions like MJ/Dalle, then we already know you’re not at the state of the art, only at the state of business solutions…

Even something as straightforward as a local SDXL model with contextual inputs and a refining pass will get you pretty good results.

Current state of the art generative AI doesn’t have trouble with hands.

I don’t expect everyone to know the different features of a “stable diffusion” style AI, but you can easily do something called img2img or inpainting, where you use transformations on a base image to help generate something more realistic. The current state of the art can easily generate readable text.

I’m not convinced it’s not - there are loads of potential artifacts, like around the blonde woman’s eyes.

Progressivism has no inherent need to be all-encompassing. In fact, keeping certain groups *cough conservatives cough* not included is an essential part of successful progressivism.

I prefer ROCM:

• Fuck me, it didn’t work again

They’re a reminder of slavery, some people feel uncomfortable using / hearing them

If you can’t even interpret that little text, you should go back to grade 1 school

RIght, because the best way to stop bad things from happening is to have everyone forget they happened…

Delete the whole thing

Generally, same. It’s also competent (not good) at boilerplate.

I mean, maybe ChatGPT is better than him, specifically.

Nah, it’ll fuck your kidney and steal your wife.

TBH, if you can’t almost instantly figure out why and how ChatGPT suggested bad code, you shouldn’t be using it at all - you’re out of depth.

It’s why I’ll gladly use it to suggest markdown or C code, but never for a complex Python library.
