Tuesday

and understand the passion behind your crusade (though I think you play a little fast and loose with distinctions between AI and generative AI), but even so, this is pretty patronizing:

If you have to play with AI because you think it somehow makes you creative or more intelligent (even though the actual work's done by AI trained on the world's intellectual property stolen by AI robber barons), please at least keep it off forums intended for human communication. There are forums elsewhere for AI addicts to show off stuff they had AI generate for them.
