Paid in cheese

I’m not sure hate is the right word. When you’ve got someone stabbing you in the back multiple times, is it really hate you’re feeling toward them? Or is it anger, fear, and danger?

I “hate” it in the sense that it’s built on theft and requires the exploitation of underpaid workers to develop and maintain it. I “hate” it in the sense that we’re living on a burning cinder with dwindling fresh water resources and “AI” is adding fuel to the fire. I “hate” it in the sense that it’s being used to further undervalue artists and writers. I “hate” it in the sense that it fills our spaces with crap that so often looks like it was cribbed off of Rapunzel, Wreck-It-Ralph, and some other things.

That’s a task that probably would be better served by purpose-built machine learning. Using “AI” for that isn’t what anyone means by “AI art” though.

I’m not sure whether I agree with the premise but, if I did, my list would include Tim Curry, Jeff Goldblum, Idris Elba, Charlize Theron, Renée Zellweger, Bill Nighy, Jeffrey Wright, and Judi Dench.

Except for Jeff and Idris, I can think of movies for each of them that weren’t rescued by their presence. Still, I usually enjoy them anyway.

If I grow a second nose, will it also be stuffed up? If so, I choose teleportation. I know it’s only 7 inches but that’s enough to get around most doors so it’s still useful.
