Grown-Up

by Edna St. Vincent Millay

Was it for this I uttered prayers, And sobbed and cursed and kicked the stairs, That now, domestic as a plate, I should retire at half-past eight?

the thing I love most about how tumblr users use tags is that it’s like what if a social media website had a footnotes system

1. Light candle

2. Realize you forgot to smell the candle beforehand to see if you'll like it

3. Bring lit candle directly to your nose to smell it

I almost didn’t click this because I assumed it would be someone singing the altered lyrics and I can basically figure out what that would sound like

BUT NO, someone has instead the original song to go like this and it is, very good

I feel like a lot of people get "All Art is Political" confused with "All Art is made with Political Intentions" which is not the same.

Okay. Yes. I have been killing myself trying to come up with the best way to say this and here you have it.

And they're absolutely specifically pushing it, make no mistake. It's not just a matter of "it's there, it's convenient, so people are going to take the path of the least resistance", but it is a legitimate and concerted effort on the part of these companies to get people to outsource all these things to their models.

They're preying on insecurities to do it. Yes, you can write an essay - but can you write a good essay, they ask you. Do you not want to improve your output? Do you not want people to think of you as competent and very clever? Why go through the mortifying process of failing and failing and failing until you succeed if you can just skip the "learning" part of doing, and simply generate a ready-made product?

I'm preaching to the choir here obviously but it's a concerning thing to witness nonetheless. My kid is 6 next week and I've been teaching her that failing at things is morally neutral and in fact necessary even before the advent of AI, but it's becoming ever more important that we teach the kids that criticism and failure and discomfort aren't necessarily bad things, but just a part of the growth process.

AI companies are heavily invested in making themselves relevant. They want people to believe they can't do the things they have done unaided before and make them become reliant on the AI models, so the AI models' existence is artificially justified.
