How can you be both mystified as to where I'm going with it, but also think you know my motives? Aren't you being disingenuous by pretending to be mystified? Why everyone is so dang rude about all this is more disappointing to me than any concerns I have about AI, of which I do have many.

Probably. It looks like the backend is powered by ChatGPT.

Good grief.

Let him who is without sin among you cast the first stone. I agree that blame isn't constructive in this case, especially when most people who might do the blaming also interact with businesses and services that use AI. Where's that line in terms of being able to claim the high road here? Is...

I played with THAC0 for at least a decade so I wouldn't call it "too complicated" for most folks, but I'm glad D&D proper moved beyond it.

Thanks, appreciate it.

In your experience, do people normally ... when they've intentionally left out important words?

Interesting! What development environment are you using there? Please say it loudly so those in the cheap seats can hear. :)

Yup. But since AI tools will be an unavoidable part of life for many of your students as they get older, in your experience are schools discussing how to incorporate, at least their existence into the curriculum at all yet?

Agreed. Sooner or later, it's coming for many of those remaining creative jobs, IMO. Sadly. It's deeply worrisome and disappointing, but I've consistently said from the start that I believe it's happening regardless. The quality of AI generative art has dramatically, steadily improved over the...

How much of this thread have you read?? "Love is the most beautiful of dreams and the worst of nightmares," to quote Van Gogh. It is possible to both love something and fear it at the same time. That's how I feel about AI. It's amazing, almost supernatural technology now. I watched my...

It's not you.

Sorry for interrupting here since you were probably sarcastically referring to a different frog who also must have mentioned DMs maintaining control of their table and compared table discipline to parenting bad children. If I read that wrong, my apologies. But yeah, control only has to be...

I've defended my use of it, not AI in general. First, I started by trying to explain how I use it and how it's incredibly useful to people like me, but that didn't go anywhere. All the little attacks and digs implying that I'm a terrible person for using such a useless tool put me on the...

The extra load from those bots is crushing a lot of websites and causing a feedback loop of more and more wasted processor cycles and electricity spent hardening websites against them. That said, because I know this is a big point of contention for folks, I'm not going to stop using AI tools...

Wow, lot happened since I was away! Yeah, had to work. Unfortunately, AI can't do all of it yet. Baddum-tss! No mixed messages whatsoever. I use AI because it helps me do my job and helps me live my life. It's more helpful to me now than Google. Period. That isn't marketing, and I haven't been...

"Sorry" is the word you were looking for.

You can lay off the petty stuff, you know, the little jibes, and still make your same points.

Because people struggle with nuance and prefer reframing other positions into easily attackable extremes.

I enjoy fiddling with rules, too, so I get it. Fiddle away, sir!
