I find absolutely consistently that gen-AI advocates are literally unable to tell good output from bad output. They think people who say their output is garbage are just lying to have a go at them. - awful.systems

If I had a nickel for every “metafictional” “short” “story” a promptbro shat into existence on Twitter, I’d have two nickels. That’s not much, but its two nickels too fucking many.

    To be clear, I would be impressed with a dog that wrote the same story, but only because it was a dog.

        yud’s induction into the ranks of sneerclub is going to get very complicated when he gets to the part where he has to vow to shove Eliezer Yudkowsky into a locker on sight

          I don’t think he’ll have an issue with it. Someone with that little self-awareness can’t possibly own a mirror.
