Without changing a single word... What Star Trek episode or film title could also be a porn title? "The Devil in the Dark"
Without changing a single word... What Star Trek episode or film title could also be a porn title? Borrowing this from Bill George on Facebook! My submission: The Measure Of A Man 😉
This! A thousand times this! "AI" is now a vapid, catch-all marketing term that has swept up all the real, value-added machine learning tools that have been developed over the last 30 years, and poured useless LLM plagiarism machine goop all over them!
If you don't want the ignorant majority to freak out when machine learning systems are used to do something they are ACTUALLY good for, stop using the same marketing term to describe them as con men use to describe chatbots.
"Well struck...Princess..." (Thanks to @myufish.bsky.social for the commission)
Robert Zemeckis et al didn't do, well <waves hands at *everything*> in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" just so you could tell me that AI is "inevitable."
James Cameron didn't film a mirror shot by having Linda Hamilton's identical twin sister behind a window precisely copying her every move just so you could tell me that AI is "inevitable." youtu.be/fYTOK89w8h0?...
