It also blows my American mind how memorizable that long number is. It's probably largely the jingle, but I can remember that cold without thinking about it for years. But I can only hold like 4 American phone numbers in my head. Without my contacts I can call: myself (helpful), my wife (I'd better), and both of my parents (good to have backups).
That's the end of the list.
I still remember every phone number from the day I learned to memorize phone numbers until I got my first cell phone. I remember my pager number. I remember my high school best friend's parents' number. I still know the number to the Mongolian BBQ joint that I ordered from when I was stationed in South Carolina. None of these are useful to me.
Also of no use is my icq number from the 90s that I remember.
However, the only useful numbers I remember are my main phone number, my parents land line (but that's a holdover from before my first cell), and one friend who lives out of state. I don't know anyone's number who lives within 4 hours of me.
I don't know what's wrong with my brain.

Same thing that's wrong with mine: the brain is really good at working collaboratively with other shit, and that means if the phone can remember the numbers your brain will happily give that task to the phone. I can remember so many number from before I had a cell, and almost none since then.
It's also got to do with repetition. We used to dial the number each time, now we almost never type the digits in, just pull up a contact (or more likely, a text from them) and hit call

Parts of it were, but parts were hand drawn, all of the text was put in manually with the comic neue font, and the whole thing was assembled piece by piece in gimp.

Email title: "Urgent, need fix ASAP"
Call the user within the hour, no answer, send an email, get an out of office message informing you that they are on vacation for several weeks.
Comes back: "WHY ISN'T THIS FIXED?"

No that's too formal

Why does AI use this beige background color?

It'd be half as bad if you weren't doing this whole watermark thing in my opinion

I'm guessing the text wasn't AI

If you know a post you publish on lemmy used AI in its making, i recommend disclosing that so people dont start complaining about the use of AI and downvoting the post

Generated images aren't "stolen", be mad

Like that would stop them.

No, just plagarized.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]That is a better way of putting it, but also requires someone trying to pass off the image as their own. So it wouldn't really be plagarism if you just said it was a generated image off the bat imo.
In the context of the OP I don't think it's plagiarism though since only some of the images is generated

If I plagiarize part of my paper the whole paper is tainted

I missed the part of the comic with the credits/citations.

Oh no, someone used a tool to express something....this anti people making art with AI is so damn tiring.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]They did make the comic. They might not've made the images, but they are the ones that came up with the idea and put it together. It's an expression from their mind, and therefore them watermarking it is a nonissue.
It doesn't just seem scummy, it is scummy to gatekeep art.

Whats scummy is discouraging people from sharing their artistic expressions because your inferiority complex from them using a tool. Art has always been copied and built from other people. How many drawing books teach you to trace existing art to learn? How about photo realistic drawings which are traces from photos? How many works are derivatives from public domain? Yet that all gets to be art...The scumy thing in AI is that corporations use them for profit and aim to remove labor so they can increase their wealth hoarding, not that people can use them to express themselves without needing years of training...
