  @halva it's channeling that twitter post where some asshole used ai to finish keith haring's intentionally unfinished painting @mynameistillian @halva Jeez. I'd understand it for nonfiction (same reason I often use Simple English wikipedia for things I don't know much about) but I don't see the point of this. Plenty of books written in easy prose...  @halva Honestly, a reasonable use case. @flesh @halva Yes, putting the environmental impact aside for a moment, not being able to rely on this technology renders it pretty useless. I do agree that this is a valid problem to solve, but current "AI" is not the right tool. It's the same thing with blind people relying on these for describing images: https://mastodon.social/@stefan@stefanbohacek.online/112694287618671369 Also, consider that we have https://simple.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_English_Wikipedia   @JohannaMakesGames @CAETFOOD it’s an emojo on plush city so they can use it in their display name :neofox_magnify: there’s tons of variety in emojos on an instance to instance basis @JohannaMakesGames @halva it's an emote! The emote is :yell: You could ask if it can be added to your instance  @halva @empathicqubit @halva many ebook readers have build in dictionaries. I use that. @halva i like how the example is how they show beautiful prose being turned into joyless corpse of a text. Really we should replace van gogh starry night with just a tree emoji and three star emojis then it would be that more of an artwork  No shit. My children didn't become great readers by stopping at the Clifford the Big Red Dog books. This idea is an affront to expanding your mind. Sounds like the newest iteration of dumbing down America.    @halva Are they doing this to books who's authors are still alive I foresee legal consequences.    This is exactly how we ended up with Beavis and Butthead level of communication sophistication, as seen in the phenomenon of memes used to explain everything in this world.   @halva "Cold hard fact about Rich men is that they want wives" - Jane Austin, apparently  @halva or I could just not read them at all, and avoid AI nonsense.     @halva those people are going to learn very soon what an author's moral rights are.  my sister was taking English lessons in Oxford, living in a family of linguist teachers at local Uni, they always told her we make too complicated sentences and they should be split in some simple ones. that was something that astounded me. I don't plan to make my speech simpler. no way.
