How did I end up here? I don't know, haha. Though I'd like to have an in-depth understanding/explanation for everything, this is one thing I might have to accept that I've got no explanation for. I just am.
Agh, I really should get back to/make time for reading the manga. Though I think I'd start from the beginning, since it's been a couple years; I only got to the Duelist Kingdom semifinals anyway.

Over the past few days, I asked for your help to cover Eid expenses and to buy medication for my parents. Yesterday, we experienced a very nearby airstrike that caused significant damage, including damage to our tent.
We are living with fear every moment. Every minute feels uncertain, and the war has never truly ended. The situation continues to worsen, and I could lose my life at any moment.Please do not forget my family and loved ones. Any support you can provide, even to help us repair the damage, would mean so much to us. We urgently need your help.These are some photos showing the damage and the area that was bombed. Please support and help us in any way you can. We need everything.😭💔

When you have multiple projects at once + needing to study for GED and your brain creates imaginary vague deadlines for everything so you're just left with an impending sense of doom for whatever you're not currently working on
My brain:
Not working on your Autistic Ednalysis™ video? You're falling behind. Don't forget 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕕𝕖𝕒𝕕𝕝𝕚𝕟𝕖 (there is no deadline and no one cares)
Btw when you do make the video the few people who will even bother watching it are going to make fun of you (probably not)
Also don't forget you're a failure, you suck at everything, and everyone thinks you're a cringe loser :)
If the puppet show was meant to be ai generated, Steel Wool chose a very weird, and honestly nonsensical way to describe it.
See autistic ramblings about word-choice below.
"Our patented "Stage Manager" software keeps your show on track and condensed to fit your broadcast time slot, including commercial breaks!"
"If writers have you blocked, use an MCM story template."
"Simply supply the "Stage Manager" with the desired character names, location, and genre."
"It writes itself!"
"Additional story templates available for purchase."
The Stage Manager is an ai, but it's never said nor implied to write anything or be a generative ai. Its only described/shown purpose is data organization and time management. It keeps your show on track and keeps record of statistics (employee count, project status, etcetera). And why is it called Stage Manager if it's a script generator? Wouldn't it have been given a name implying it can ""write"" as well as manage? Like director or something?
The main thing that confuses me is the use of the word template. A premade format for derivation. Like how a free website maker or a presentation maker gives you templates. As well, these templates very clearly have already been written, and there is a limited amount. You are supplied templates with purchase of the software, and you can buy an additional amount.
If Steel Wool was referencing generative ai, why would they describe it like Mad Libs? Why not say, "If writers have you blocked, ask the Stage Manager for ideas," or something like that? Why is there a limited amount of prewritten story formats for you to select and fill in slots? It doesn't say you're required to use a template, either; you could most likely write your own template. The Stage Manager is never said to have created the templates. If it could ""write"" anything, why would you need (a limited supply of) templates?? Why not just have the user ask it to generate a script?? It was probably me(Edwin), my wife, or an employee who wrote the templates.
What's even on these story templates? An episode plot, most likely, but how much of the plot is already on the template? What does the Stage Manager do, based on what the user inputs? It would essentially have to be a fully prewritten choose-your-own-adventure type script, with blanks in place of names and location. Stuff like what the antagonist is/does and how the episode ends would likely be decided from prewritten-by-human outcomes based on the selected genre. It would all have to be prewritten by a human, because otherwise that would mean the Stage Manager can generate plot. And if that were the case, why would you need templates? Why not just have the user ask it to generate a script?
I'd like to also mention, you'd still need to create or purchase/commission physical sets, puppets, and a costume/springlock-suit for yourself.
I just don't think anyone would choose to describe generative ai in a way that just doesn't make sense for it to be generative ai. If Steel Wool was describing generative ai, the use of the word template, and the implied limited amount of templates, makes absolutely zero sense. Therefore, I don't believe the puppet show is made with generative ai.
Edwin Murray really went: Ah yes, grey blue, a pinkish tone and a very light yellow, now that's the kind of colour pattern I should use for my factory!
