So, it is a monster. Hey, just a little one.
LILO & STITCH (2002), dir. by Chris Sanders & Dean Deblois
i feel like men got too comfortable directing 3 hr movies. like that's manspreading on a cultural level. go back to 90 min movies. i have other things to do this evening. wrap it up charles dickens, you aren't being paid by the word
I seriously do not get how people don't understand this. The absolute dependence so many have with AI, so quickly, is utterly baffling. They've completely given up all thought, all pursuit, all effort because it's the Cool New Thing.
We will NEVER be able to look at content online any more without thinking "Is this AI?".
From funny voices and videos of famous people playing CoD, to fake smear campaigns, product placements and scams using those very same voices and faces.
How about academics? Why bother writing a paper on a subject when AI can do it for you? Teachers not bothering to create course work because it's easier to have an AI plan a lesson for you. Doesn't matter if the information is incorrect because the person checking the work isn't real! It's yet another AI, working off of the same bungled data that yours spewed information from.
People are giving up the very idea of THINKING, of CREATIVITY and CONNECTION to a machine purely for the sake of convenience.
Tech-bros stopped reinventing the train for once, instead they created The Torment Nexus
We all thought it was going to be some over the top, horrid machine of endless pointed blades. It's not. It's a recursive river of information, slowly poisoning itself on it's own bad data while people unknowingly or without care, drink from it deeply.
People will suffer, knowledge will be lost and those terrible few will use it to obscure their crimes more so than they already do.
Please, don't use AI.
Be human. Struggle. Grow.
the ultimate point of fandom is joy and happiness and this should never be forgotten. yes, nuanced discussion and informed critique is so important, but if all you do is find flaws to analyse, and often get upset about, you need to find a piece of media that you enjoy more. if being in a fandom isn't, in one way or another, creating a net positive of emotion for you, go and find something that does make you happy.
your happiness and enjoyment of media should be able to walk hand in hand with your literacy and critical thinking, not be replaced by it.
Girls I am looking you in the eye and holding you tight. 99% of all things people describe as being female or male puberty is made up bullshit. Sex is not as black and white as you think (nor is it real for that matter.) Please. Dont listen. Jaw sizes and leg lengths and whatever is made up, misogynistic, and sometimes even race science. PLEASE im begging you to not hold yourself to such standards, much less other people.
