Tell you what, given the project I've been working on for months, AI very definitely does not offload my cognition. It only augments it, and there wasn't a lot of that to work with to start.

I think this is what bugs me about people automatically calling everything out of AI slop or vibed. I promise you, there is actually a talent gradient involved. You just need to learn to recognize it.

Relatedly, I am way less interested in AI media (imagery, videos) which try to hide that they're AI, and way more interested in the ones that embrace the bizarre and jarring quirks of the medium and turn them into something challenging or interesting.

I was explaining to someone this is more or less the approach of being handed a theremin. Sure you could try to play traditional music, but come on. You're gonna want to go wild with this thing.
