"A ship can never truly love an anchor." dude shut up. a ship without an anchor gets dashed against the rocks. it's useless, completely at the whim of the currents. a ship loves an anchor so much it carries it everywhere it goes. the anchor gives the ship the world to love. dude.

A good rule of thumb for AI is "would you trust a trained pigeon to do this?"

"We trained a pigeon to recognise cancerous cell clusters and somehow they're really good at it" okay great, that's something that could plausibly be a thing.

"We trained a pigeon to recognise good CV:s and left it in charge of sorting through all our job applications" uh perhaps consider not doing that.

This may be the worst use of LLMs anyone has attempted, ever. Up there with recognizing mushrooms.

Detect evil but it becomes increasingly clear that whoever calibrated it had some really weird moral stances.

One big advantage of literary fantasy over more visual media is that you can hide completely batshit worldbuilding in plain sight. Like, yeah, what this setting calls "elves" are actually grey aliens, like from UFO folklore, but it takes thirty chapters for the reader to get enough information to piece that together because none of the viewpoint characters particularly remark upon it. Why would they? Elves looking like that is normal for them.

one of my formative experiences with sex ed was having sexual desire explained to my class by a catholic nun who was very clearly working on a purely theoretical model. she explained with like increasing mania that women and men are very different because men are "like microwaves" and women "are like crock pots" and the more confused the class (age 13) became the more frantic sister patrick stephen became until she was accidentally making the point that men and women are too much like different appliances to have sex with each other at all. we all felt quite guilty as this was the year twilight came out so we'd all just gotten horny for the first time. so we felt bad for her if anything

"Cool ring, what's it do?" "It lets you set yourself on fire" "uh, ok, explain? "you set yourself on fire and take 1-4 damage" "Ok, and what do I gain by doing this?" "You gain heat, which means you take 1-4 damage, but you can use heat convergence" "Ok, we're getting somewhere. What is heat convergence" "We ran out of room"

Man, wish I could see what this thing fucking did. Unfortunately, infinite thumbnail attack
