speaking as the artist who designed Young Liz for Bioshock Infinite, I love to see an article promising a bold new future where she could just look like someone’s half-assed cosplay instead

the main reason i don’t argue with people about voting on the internet is that if you don’t feel any particular obligation to exercise your right to self-government — if you don’t see it as simply a fundamental task of citizenship — then there’s nothing i can say to persuade you otherwise

Yup. Writing is thinking. So if you write a shitty first draft, you did some thinking and are on your way! If you got “AI” to write the draft, you haven’t thought AND now you’re trying to fix up what some non-thinking robot “thought.” You just put yourself 30 yards behind the starting line.
I remember people saying things like “you can’t fix an empty page” as an explanation for why writing a shitty first draft is better than no writing, but it’s not because it’s easier to edit than draft.
It’s because the act of drafting tells you about the shape of the story.

This is not just bots. We are seeing more and more submissions by writers with publication records who are almost certainly using AI to create initial drafts and then are trying and failing to edit things into shape.

Twitter is extremely creepy these days because 90% of the responses are bots and it’s not exactly clear why. Usually it’s not even political, it’s not selling anything, it’s just bots pretending to be people. The vibe is like boarding a city bus and realizing none of the passengers have faces
