As has been said elsewhere, this language is an active crime scene. 😅

English adjectives generally follow a specific sequence: opinion, size, age, shape, colour, origin, material, and purpose.

For native speakers, changing the order sounds really wrong. For non-native speakers, this must be a pain to remember.

A simple example is “big bad wolf.” If we say “bad big wolf,” it sounds very off.

The machines literally extrude the most statistically mediocre content possible, which is then made worse due to the process of extrusion and alienation from the original artistic context.

I don't hate AI, I hate no talent fools who use AI as a short cut to produce content that drowns out real art. The technology behind the latest generation of AI is fascinating. The ramifications of giving everyone on the internet the means of creating visually appealing propaganda is horrifying.

The reason I don't repost political stuff on this account is that I don't want to trigger my allies, who have few enough safe and calm spaces.

Make no mistake: I am not the least bit concerned about potentially offending fascists. I read that businesses in Minneapolis are refusing to serve ICE and that MAGA folks are shouting for a boycott. Please, MAGA, pretty please, can you boycott me too?
