Wait, you're saying that writing wasn't invented by a guy with an ibis head?

No they didn't.

I don't think the context is self evident at all. It's very important to know whose pocket he picked.

Your personal experience means nothing.

That doesn't even make sense. If you volunteered, then you did find someone. Yourself.

As if we needed any more proof that "generations" are nonsense, now people claim to have omniscience regarding their generational cohorts.

You say the voice is clearly yours, but that's an illusion. I can recognize your comment as AI written.

Quantify this. What constitutes a resurgence, or a slow rise?

"I find it ironic that back then we had a lot of trouble finding people who were willing to design posters and promo media on print." I don't see the word free here. Of course you'd have trouble finding people to do anyt

How do you quantify that as a trend? Prices change all the time. How many people actually bought it? The stuff about "generations" and trend cycles is nonsense.

Evening the playing field would mean those R1 professors now teach five classes a semester for 50k a year instead of doing research.

No, it hasn't. You're confusing digital cameras with Polaroids.

Same mentality as people who voted for Trump. No wonder he's become such an AI booster.

Back when? The 1970s? I don't believe that you couldn't find poster making services in the last 10-20 years.

It would be defensible if it worked that way. Instead they work backwards: define the groups for marketing purposes, and then try to identify the similarities.

So now it only refers to Americans? The arbitrary goal post shifting continues.

No it doesn't. I have little in common with a Japanese rice farmer born in the same year.

It's the same, you're just substituting years for months.

No, it doesn't. The baby boomers represented an actual demographic change, that's why they're tracked by the Census Bureau. Everything since then is marketing and astrology.

As always, named "generations" are completely arbitrary and meaningless. They're made up by marketers to sell products.

That's about as useful as saying you asked the magical sky fairy.

I'm not sure why an advanced degree is necessary for that at all, besides the pride of a vanity title. It's pretty much what Bill Nye does for science.

You still have to be able to verify the solution to say that it's solved, so I'd say no.

How do you write a grant for that though? "I plan to prompt Claude until it eventually spits out an answer"?

Yes, believe it or not, Christians have more than one crazy belief. There's an entire book full of them.
27.
by breezybottom 14d ago
How could you possibly know if it has potential or not? Sounds like AI psychosis setting in.
28.
by breezybottom 15d ago
Christians don't believe they're made in the image of God? That's news to me.

Science has proven that the earth wasn't created by a magical fairy 6000 years ago, yes. There's very little doubt about that among educated people.

Its only a possibility if you reject modern science.
