LLM people think I'm hurting for story ideas. That's never the problem. I have lots of ideas. I know these stories better than my own flesh and blood body. It's coming up with an angle, plotting, time, energy, and creativity to write that's the problem. I don't need "AI". I need UBI.

@gwynnion @RhinosWorryMe And UBS! You want UBS in place otherwise UBI has to be spent on basic human needs that should’ve been provided cost-free by society.

Together they form the foundation for a society with dignity for all. A society with no bullshit jobs because nobody has to work simply to survive. With reduced unnecessary production and environmental impact.
