AI sloppers (is that a term?) crying that their prompts are being stolen is more beautiful than anything AI could produce
mzsibyl_® › •: Al Threads 3d Tired of the Prompt Thieves in the Al art community. Seriously, the moment a great prompt is public, someone immediately copies it, shares it, and pretends it's their own genius work. It's not about gatekeeping, it's about giving credit where it's due. Stop stealing and start creating! #PromptStealer 1/2 OscarAl @Artedeingenio X.com Never do this: Passing off someone else's work as your own. This Grok Imagine effect with the day-to-night transition was created by me — and I'm pretty sure that person knows it. To make things worse, their copy has more impressions than my original post. Not cool subscribe @Artedeingenio I don't know what you think, but this seems a bit unfel to me. My original post with the Saori Kido Athena prompt has 4,000 impressions, while @dvorahfr's post with an image created with my prompt has 30,000. As for not quoting me as the author, I'm not saying anything, because she has apologised. I would like to understand that it was an unintentional mistake, although I think I'm well enough known around here to use a prompt of mine without knowing it's mine. If I wasn't so well known, would there have been a rectification? I am afraid that many small accounts are stolen on a daily basis and nothing happens. But for a copy to be more widely distributed than the original is a very bad symptom. Without focusing on anyone, I think that some big accounts hardly create original content and just post other people's content, often without quoting the author, and that's very uncool. Respect and honesty above all else. Let's play fair.

casting Tatiana Maslany in Orphan Black is an excellent case of nominative determinism, as in Hungarian “más lány” means “different girl”, which is all the roles she plays in the show

mandatory abstruse goose comic reference web.archive.org/web/20180907...
Three-panel comic featuring a cartoon cow shaped like a sphere, used to parody theoretical physics simplifications. Panel 1: The text reads “Assume a spherical cow of uniform density.” Below it is a spherical black-and-white cow with a pink snout, small ears, and a tail, saying “MOO.” Panel 2: The text reads “…while ignoring the effects of gravity.” The same spherical cow now floats slightly above the ground, looking confused with a “?” above its head. Panel 3: The text reads “…in a vacuum.” The cow now appears distressed, with a thought bubble saying “CAN’T. BREATHE.” Below the panels is a caption: “bastard theoretical physicists How do you sleep at night?”

Ugh. Meant this answer specifically:

Can every language be categorized as either compiled or interpreted?
As per Wikipedia: A compiled language is a programming language whose implementations are typically compilers (translators that generate machine code from source code). And an interpreted language ...

There is a Portillo‘s in Metro Atlanta now, and I drove by and saw two police cars with their lights on barely managing to control the traffic into it, the people crave eating an entire 3 pound slice of chocolate cake in the middle of the day in their car

Journalist challenge: Use “Machine Learning” when you mean machine learning and “LLM” when you mean LLM. Ditch “AI” as a catch-all term, it’s not useful for readers and it helps companies trying to confuse the public by obscuring the roles played by different technologies. 🧪
