Degeneration of AI

Elizabeth — Thu, 02 Nov 2023 08:08:00 +0000

ChatGPT has gotten worse at a number of things since its introduction to the public. The problem with publicly-fed generative content programs like ChatGPT is that they will always be both producing into and siphoning from the same pool of information.

ChatGPT has numerous spin-off programs and cousin programs that achieve almost the same result. They’re still AI, so they still make the list. What makes something seem human?

AI Generated Shows Are Not A Solution

Elizabeth — Thu, 08 Jun 2023 08:40:00 +0000

Endless Seinfeld was an experiment ran using a ChatGPT cousin tailored to the purpose of writing scripts. Sitcoms, with rare exceptions, do not allow their characters to change. They will begrudgingly hand birthdays to a child character as time turns incoherent toddler actors into walking, talking children, but that’s generally the full extent of it […]

“Unaliving” and Other Such Words TikTok started out pretty rough when it was introduced to the US. Much like the old internet of yore, it was possible to stumble across something pretty disturbing, graphic, or violent just by using the app. However, upon introduction to the Apple app store, which required a stringent series of […]

Fast Fashion

You’ve likely heard the term before – and for good reason.

Fast fashion also often rips off clothing from other, more sustainable, smaller brands, […]

Touchups People have been faking it since the era of portraitry – you’ll notice the royal or rich subjects of paintings rarely have any blemishes on their skin, even though acne, smallpox, and rashes have always been around.
