BANZAI!

 


I really mean 'Ban AI' but let's not let racial stereotyping get in the way of a good story.

I'm all for innovation and creativity - after all there's a Curmudgeonly Inventor in The Curmudgeons Inc.ⓒ: THE CURMUDGEONLY INVENTOR - but I'm getting tired of the inappropriate and overuse of AI already. I mean, when anachronous senescents like Rob Carey start using the platforms, that ship has sailed.

One of the interesting things (maybe only one) of the blogging community over the years has been the amusing way that Rob Carey and his many infestations manifestations distorts the English (and other) language kind of like a modern day Mrs Malaprop.



"We will not anticipate the past, our retrospection will now be all to the future."

Rob, or Robert has unfortunately taken to using AI in his blogging, his Facebook posts and who knows what else. I wonder if he uses AI to find obscure prayers and stories of made-up people he calls saints. Probably.

It's getting so it's hard, when reading media, watching television, generally getting information - to know what is real and what is AI-generated fake nonsense. In the case of Robert, fortunately it's easy as if the writing has no or very few spelling mistakes or grammatical errors then we know that it's fake.

He's taken to using AI generated images now. These are all creepy and have that 1950s 3D imagery about them that the weird Catholic holy pictures that the nuns gave us had.

"I'm watching you"

Apropos of nothing, am I the only one who finds this AI image Robert used recently to be blatantly pornographic?

This AI thing seems like the end of individuality.

Just having a bottle of Tipping Point Working Bee Chardonnay from Hawke's Bay. Not too bad.

It's a good wine, also the Tipping Point rose.
I buy it a lot. Grapes from vineyards I helped to buy and develop. Made at the winery I was involved with. Good choice but watch that intake old fella , especially so early in the day.

A good night's sleep and a Berocca can work wonders.
