fabric fibers and removes wrinkles.

@cstross @aeva it’s honestly shocking that people would read this and think it’s a good idea. And it’s even worse that suggestions like that are actually allowed to be produced..

You won’t get the AI bullshit out of google but given how (needlessly) dependent a large portion of people on the internet are on it you’d hope they would at least try to assure some quality in its hallucinations.

In exchange for asking my students not to use #generativeAI, I've pledged to them that *I* won't use it. That means I will not use generated images for slides, for example, among other things (no generated summaries, no generated lectures, nothing).

But the slop is so ubiquitous that even looking for (for example) a picture of the pragmatist philosopher John Dewey returns AI-generated images.

To be blunt, this fucking sucks.
