A very extreme takeaway, but okay.

I have downloaded my own LLM that can be used on my own computer… So the only cost is electricity since I upgraded my computer before the prices went to shit. Newegg even gave me free RAM with the purchase of a motherboard so I lucked out on that. Storage is not an issue too since I got that back in 2024 knowing Trump would fuck everything up.

And no, people might not respond the same way to my work, but then again I’m not taking any work away from anyone else because then it would not even exist. If you want to fund me and the artist for our work, then okay. Show me the money.

One thing I’ve noticed is that I see many more people complain about slop than slop itself. It’s so annoying at this point that’s it’s making me go in the opposite direction. Hey everyone, slop here… Microsoft slop here… Use Linux Linux Linux. Slop slop slop. Sloppy joes. It’s like candlestick makers complaining to Nikola Tesla.

I’m a writer. I got paid to write on a few things here and there, but mostly there are just huge barriers for people without connections.

I plan on using AI to turn my writing into a visual animated format for people to consume. I don’t much care about the style of art, I just want my work to be seen. I can’t afford to pay for artists. If I could, I would. But at least, this would give me an opportunity to show my work without some execs saying no a hundred times.

When I look at the art for cartoons in the 70s/80s, there is so much crap animation with mistakes and duplications, you would think it’s “a.i. slop.” I understand that these were done overseas, pumped out quickly so quality control was overlooked for speed… but it wasn’t the animation I was interested in, it was the stories and characters.

I still think original artists will continue to exist. A.I. is just another tool. People will get bored of the same old stuff and want originality. I really hope it’ll make our lives better in the long run, but we’re just in the weird middle stage of A.I. crawling before running.

Probably some troll time travelers healed him in the tomb. New religion starts.

I think everyone should be wealthy, then racism will finally be solved! Why aren’t they trying that?!

At least, it’s not just someone watching a YouTube video of someone else playing… though I imagine some of that is just due to affordability.

I know my young nephew gets frustrated on some games and then just gives up… even if he knows what to do. Maybe when he’s older he could get better at those, but by that time, he’ll be on to something else.

It’s kind of like the old Nintendo hotline. Call when you’re stuck on something in a game. Or just looking up a walkthrough online.

That said, this makes it far easier to ask for help and kids might just rely on it too much instead of figuring stuff out on their own.

This is the type of line that streaming execs would force their writers to implement for their movies and shows.

…MAGA influencers cowards…
