NO

being anti ai is making me feel like in going insane. "you asked for thoughts about your characters backstory and i put it into chat gpt for ideas". studies have proven its making people dumber. "i asked ai to generate this meal plan". its causing water shortages where its data centers are built. "ill generate some pictures for the dnd campaign". its spreading misinformation. "meta, generate an image of this guy doing something stupid". its trained off stolen images, writing, video, audio. "i was talking with my snapchat ai-" theres no way to verify what its doing with the information it collects. "youtube is impletmenting ai based age verification". my work has an entire graphics media department and has still put ai generated motivational posters up everywhere. ai playlists. ai facial verification. google ai microsoft ai meta ai snapchat ai. everyone treats it as a novelty. every treats it as a mandatory part of life. am i the only one who sees it? am i paranoid? am i going insane? jesus fucking christ. if i have to hear one more "well at least-" "but it does-" "but you can-" im about to lose it. i shouldnt have to jump through hoops to avoid the evil machine. have you no principles? no goddamn spine? am i the weird one here?

what doesn’t kill me leaves a pit in my stomach that never goes away

something something "the average country has 10000 prime ministers per election cycle" is a misconception. united kingdoms georg, which has had 10000 prime ministers since 2019, is an outlier and should have never been counted

i've been phasing the phrase 'google it' out of my vocabulary and going back to 'look it up'. fuck you youve lost your generic trademark privileges

you literally have to unironically listen to some shit like party rock anthem so you don’t kill yourself

someone commented on a clip from a period drama with something like “is it just me or does anyone else have a hard time connecting with characters if they don’t exist in the modern day?” nah, wild thing to say. I actually have the opposite problem. I have a hard time consuming media set in the present day/past 20 years. a character will pull out an iPhone and text their love interest and I’ll feel disgust and secondhand embarrassment for reasons I cannot fully explain.

girl it’s just a 3 day trip, you do not need to bring your terracotta warriors 🙄

remember to bury the dead with a phone, everyone. these days the ferry terminal at the river styx wants you to download a fucking app
