I fucking LOVE AI, but here are 10 reasons I absolutely fucking hate it now, a 🧵 ...

Whenever I hear about a legendary director making the actors do 50 takes of a shot, all I can think is "that guy is very bad at directing." Maybe try telling your cast and crew what you want them to do! Direct them! They're professionals, they can follow instructions

My fear with generative AI isn’t that it’s good enough to replace artists, it’s that people who control art through money will force feed us dogshit because they don’t care about quality and can’t tell the difference anyway

@BrandyLJensen Your endorsement of The Remains of the Day was why I read (and loved) it so I’m glad to hear you’ve discovered and enjoyed the Neapolitan novels as further evidence of a taste alignment. Would love to hear what else I should read.
