I’m not a writer as a cash grab, I grab cash (aka work a 9-5) so that I can write.

Why would I care about being “left behind” by AI?

Making real a full world with nothing but words is something I would never outsource. What would be the point?

"The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of #ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The #sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the #peace and #safety of a new #darkage".

"The Call of #Cthulhu", H. P. #Lovecraft (1928)

How it should make the invested money back and a profit?

Don't ask 'em they are "Technologists" not "Bean Counters"

I feel like I'm behind enemy lines at work. Too many folks emerging as LLM slop collaborators and I'm just here trying to get through day after day until I'm fired or ragequit.

I hate it more than the usual daily disgust at capitalism.
