@davidrevoy Of course they are all fake frog news! In the original story (which the AI of course couldn't be bothered to cite) the princess does NOT kiss the frog but yeet it at the wall instead, which -- unlike a kiss -- unleashed enough power to remove the curse and reveal the prince. That Avian Intelligence should not watch too many Disney movies. They're not accurate! ;-)

@davidrevoy ORLY 🀣

For a split second, I had the urge to google those sources to see if they were fake, and then I caught myself. XD

Show threadMer-fOKxTOwlDec 10

@davidrevoy Guess the frog runs a blog and wrote some articles about those "sources" and the Avian Intelligence read it ^^

@silverfish @M πŸ˜† Yes, there is some hints here and there on the sources. However, the issue with the 1, 2, 3, 1 bad numbering is totally my fault during the editing ^ ^

@davidrevoy @silverfish Thought it was totally intentionally. 🀭
Show threadDavid RevoyDec 11
@M @silverfish πŸ˜… Yeah, this one was really on me. I really thought for long minute if I should keep the 'happy accident' in the official version, and then, for being honest to my original scenario, I fixed it. (also, I believe 2025's generation of LLMs have process that sort of correct these types of mistakes over the one of the last years, so it might get old better).

@eri I had a look on the scenario of the next one and it's possible to include the frog, good idea. Yes, I think this frog should follow her everywhere from now on. Real love.

@davidrevoy Avian Intelligence not even doing list numbering right is too real.
Show threadDavid RevoyDec 10
@arielmt This mistake, to be fair was 100% mine when copy pasting the text over the already formated first line that I duplicated four time to keep the font size, italic, line-height and bold. Could have been intentional, but I'll 'fix it' in the official website going to 4. But pretty cool the mistake looks like intentional. "Happy accident exists!"
Show threadShantaraDec 10
@davidrevoy I love how the index in the list resets to 1 πŸ˜†
Show threadHaijoDec 10
@[email protected] the alt text doesn't match the text in the image. the 4th entry in the sources list is listed as "1" again in the image, but as "4" in the alt text
Show threadDavid RevoyDec 11
@Haijo7 That's because it's an issue I made while duplicating the text box of the item 1 fout time, to preserve the formating, I forgot to edit the last 1 into 4. It's fixed on the website now; https://www.peppercarrot.com/en/miniFantasyTheater/030.html 😊
