I am *so* tempted. Texts cost me nothing. (No, I am no-one's dad.) What do you think? Not sure I could be as good as this though.

The real tell here is that they care more about impressions than actually creating something meaningful. Art isn't even a goal to these people, it's just an otherwise-valueless thing with which one garners clout
AI sloppers (is that a term?) crying that their prompts are being stolen is more beautiful than anything AI could produce

Ok, I trust mine to protect me too. Which is why I trained it extensively on what the virus looks like so it can handle it.
Boxers don’t enter the ring without a plan. It’s the punch you don’t see coming that knocks you out.

It’s disappointing the River Nidd at the Lido has again been rated poor for bathing water quality.
This cherished spot remains unsafe because Yorkshire Water puts profit before environment.
OFWAT must be replaced with a regulator with real teeth to hold polluters to account & clean up our rivers.

It must be nice (and not at all hypocritical, right?) for people like @adambienkov.bsky.social to be able to just block people who challenge their ideas and opinions and who don't have to abide by due impartiality guidelines. It's almost like they're scared of debate.

Well this is a little embarrasing. Just watching SWAT (we're rather behind here) and didn't recognise @realmerrind.bsky.social 😲🤦♂️😠 (I mean, I thought the actress looked familiar. 😳 In my defence, we don't see her much here in the UK.) Sorry!

Whilst I stand by my opinion that #AI should not be used for artistic work (eg painting, music) I have finally discovered how good it is as a tool for research, replacing a standard search engine! I think I will be using it more!
