Just a reminder that generative AI is theft of labor and intellectual property, uses vast amounts of energy/ water, provides at best mediocre results (if not outright lies or misinformation), actually affects your ability to think over time (mind duh), and is in general a really fucking bad idea.

RIP Richard Chamberlain, 1934–2025. Despite being better known as a heartthrob and "king of the miniseries", I always found him more effective as a total douche in 1970s disaster movies.
