#using my data#there's a 60 acre and a 30 acre fire happening near me#luckily we're quite a ways from it but the power company turned the grid off so the electricity doesn't feed into fires#when i say im getting 2020 fire flashbacks im getting 2020 fire flashbacks#i don't want to experience not one but 3 evacs again#im so tired#summer after summer being on edge#allegedly we may get power again by 3am its almost 7pm now but we'll see#and i get why they needed to turn the grid off its part of the fire safety thing the whole town and neighborhoods agreed to#but we're kind of sitting ducks on updates as to where the fires are heading#i only what i know cause of a neighbor#on to prepping#kinda magenta#some other kind of pink#needed to get this off my chest#seriously the 2020 fires looked like the fucking targaryans came into town and ransacked entire cities and woodland areas#everything scorched by dragons

Not to preach to the choir but I wonder if people generally realize that AI models like ChatGPT aren't, like, sifting through documented information when you ask it particular questions. If you ask it a question, it's not sifting through relevant documentation to find your answer, it is using an intensely inefficient method of guesswork that has just gone through so many repeated cycles that it usually, sometimes, can say the right thing when prompted. It is effectively a program that simulates monkeys on a typewriter at a mass scale until it finds sets of words that the user says "yes, that's right" to enough times. I feel like if it was explained in this less flattering way to investors it wouldn't be nearly as funded as it is lmao. It is objectively an extremely impressive technology given what it has managed to accomplish with such a roundabout and brain-dead method of getting there, but it's also a roundabout, brain-dead method of getting there. It is inefficient, pure and simple.
#the notes on this post are about to get sooooo annoying#this doesnt touch on the fact that AI is stealing artist's jobs which i think is the real biggest harm of AI#but like#god#just take a minute and think about how stupid the current use-cases for AI are when you consider how it gets to those conclusions#this guesswork has its place in fields where guesswork is necessary like when screening for potential health issues in the medical field#but the benefit of the medical field is that when you get a false positive you can just do further testing to confirm the initial reading#that's called a second opinion and it is how the medical field is structured fundamentally#if you screen someone for cancer and it comes out positive#but it turns out they didnt really have cancer#that's fine! that's good news and it's good that you were at least wary of it!#but so many other applications for AI do not have this leeway where incorrect answers have further reaching consequences#and more importantly AI isn't stealing the fucking jobs of doctors!!!#although jesus i really wish doctors would stop using AI to take notes for patients#yes please lets give all my personal medical info to a big machine that stores and processes literally everything it hears#im sure there would never be far reaching consequences if that machine ever had a data breach#blah

[Toon x Mobster] Sir toon and his loyal men.
This comes WAAYY way after Gavriel and Jack's relationship really takes off.
The other members were initially very against Gavriel and Jack's relationship, Gavriel Huffman included. However, Jack is eventually able to earn the respect of the other mobsters after proving himself able to protect both their boss [Gavriel] and the other members of their group, time and time again.
They swore to do him favors and other errands as a compensation for his benevolence. Jack himself didn't mean for this to happen, he just didn't want anyone to get hurt and his kind heart has won the group over in turn.

metaphor prologue
#metaphor refantazio#metaphor: refantazio#metaphor#personal#yes i am ripping sprites to make shitposts. i know my priorities#also if you are reading this no i do not have a link rn theyre time consuming to splice together#the format is just different enough from p5 that tools made for that game dont work#and i cant find any parameter data that i know what to do with#so i cant tell exactly which combinations of bases and expressions are actually used without literally combing gameplay#also blush + hands on some characters is gonna be a pain in the ass. so we'll see#anyway i might toss them over to the megaten wiki as i go. if that would be helpful#best of

As cameras becomes more normalized (Sarah Bernhardt encouraging it, grifters on the rise, young artists using it), I wanna express how I will never turn to it because it fundamentally bores me to my core. There is no reason for me to want to use cameras because I will never want to give up my autonomy in creating art. I never want to become reliant on an inhuman object for expression, least of all if that object is created and controlled by manufacturing companies. I paint not because I want a painting but because I love the process of painting. So even in a future where everyone’s accepted it, I’m never gonna sway on this.
if i have to explain to you that using a camera to take a picture is not the same as using generative ai to generate an image then you are a fucking moron.
#ask me#anon#no more patience for this#i've heard this for the past 2 years#“an object created and controlled by companies” anon the company cannot barge into your home and take your camera away#or randomly change how it works on a whim. you OWN the camera that's the whole POINT#the entire point of a camera is that i can control it and my body to produce art. photography is one of the most PHYSICAL forms of artmakin#you have to communicate with your space and subjects and be conscious of your position in a physical world.#that's what makes a camera a tool. generative ai (if used wholesale) is not a tool because it's not an implement that helps you#do a task. it just does the task for you. you wouldn't call a microwave a “tool”#but most importantly a camera captures a REPRESENTATION of reality. it captures a specific irreproducible moment and all its data#read Roland Barthes: Studium & Punctum#generative ai creates an algorithmic IMITATION of reality. it isn't truth. it's the average of truths.#while conceptually that's interesting (if we wanna get into media theory) but that alone should tell you why a camera and ai aren't the sam#ai is incomparable to all previous mediums of art because no medium has ever solely relied on generative automation for its creation#no medium of art has also been so thoroughly constructed to be merged into online digital surveillance capitalism#so reliant on the collection and commodification of personal information for production#if you think using a camera is “automation” you have worms in your brain and you need to see a doctor#if you continue to deny that ai is an apparatus of tech capitalism and is being weaponized against you the consumer you're delusional#the fact that SO many tumblr lefists are ready to defend ai while talking about smashing the surveillance state is baffling to me#and their defense is always “well i don't engage in systems that would make me vulnerable to ai so if you own an apple phone that's on you”#you aren't a communist you're just self-centered

#heres some data from my rewatch of good omens#i definitely had to draw some lines between which instances I counted and which I didn't and it was harder than I thought it would be to do#Anyways the lack of “Aziraphale” references in s2 compared to “Angel” is crazy!#lmk if you disagree or have suggestions#Crowley invented using “Angel” as a term of endearment#remember this is not everytime they say eachother's names#its every time they say eachother's names when talking to eachother... not to other people#pet names#good omens#data#numbers#aziraphale#crowley#ineffable husbands#pie charts#aziracrow
