Not a fan of AI personally, and it doesn’t help that scientists are trying to make AI more and more like humans (guess they didn’t learn the lesson about playing God in Frankenstein or Jurassic Park). AI feels fake to me, especially the pictures, they just look so uncanny and off. Maybe it’s the lack of creativity or effort…[Read more]

I loved Tress of the Emerald Sea! It’s one of my favorite books. I loved the plot twist at the end, with the rat. I won’t say much because spoilers. I don’t remember my favorite quote right now. I know I had one, but now I’m forgetting it. 🙁 Oh well.

When I know something is in the Bible, but I can’t remember where it is, I will ask the bot for Bible verses on the subject. Then I will double-check the context to make sure that the bot is not making it look like the verse means something other than what it does. What do you think of this? What would a better way for me to f…

Oh my goodness I use AI lots, but only to generate text in the style of Shakespeare on the subject on “how to make a peanut butter sandwich”

Even if we know beforehand a truth we want to teach and ask AI to write that story for us, we end up not thinking that truth through and don’t end up fully understanding it ourselves.
I like how you said that! Sometimes I think the more technology advances, the less creative we become, because the technology starts to do all t…[Read more]

I could talk about this topic for a long time, but I’ll try to keep it short because as somebody entering the art industry, it’s a real hot topic and there is a lot of division over it.
Nearly all ai images are stolen artwork. The artists don’t give their consent, and from what I’ve heard as soon as they get one of their images…[Read more]

I will start by saying I am kind of a techhie.
I also ❤️ Open AI (ChatGPT)
But I would also say using AI to write things or do non-prototyping imaging is extremly unethical. Mostly just because of the way the AI works (a quick google search (or honestly asking chaGPT) can probably explain this better than me).
In terms of…[Read more]

I have not used AI, and honestly, while I’m sure it can be used for good, I feel like it just steals from the creative nature God gave us as humans. I want to allow God to use my imagination and my creativity to create something that brings glory to Him, and for me, using AI would probably cause me to use my imagination less and…[Read more]

I usually read my siblings what’s in my notebook, but I like bringing it to co-op, and I live in mortal dread of my archnemesis reading it. *shudders* Or one of the other annoying kids. Or…anyone who’s not a sibling, basically.

I have not found AI very useful in writing (except for asking very specific technical questions), but to be fair I’ve only used ChatGPT which is not the brightest. I don’t have much opinion on things like that. However, I do not like AI art. I used to play around with it a bit, but I don’t do that anymore. It honestly gives me t…[Read more]

I’ve been using AI to generate pictures of my characters, but I would never use it to write something in my WIP. The pictures are nice though. My brother has used it to generate pictures of ducks in fedoras.

So, I talked with my mom, and we are going to name the two grey ones Snips and Snails ( @loopylin ) and the tabby’s Candy ( @theducktator I actually wouldn’t have thought of this one for whatever reason, though it fits her so well!

Enemies to lovers is my favorite romance trope! I don’t have a ton of experience, but here are my suggestions. The villain could save her life at the risk of his own. They could be having a normal conversation in which she says she likes something, and he remembers and gives it to her. They could both be nerds about the same obscure…[Read more]

Hi everyone!
So the reason I tagged you is simple, my cat had four little kittens last night, and I need four cute kitten names! You can suggest as many as…[Read more]-
I have so many ideas:D
1. Tux
2. If you name one Snips, you need to name another one Snails
3. Domino
4. Millie
5. Fish
6. If you name two of them Snips and Snails, you could name the other two Sugar and Spice-
Oh no. You are asking the Author who came up with a whole fantasy race that is known for being terrible at naming. He then put them in charge so that he would not have to put much thought into the names of many characters and locations. They are a lion-like species known as lyens that take a word related to ‘lion’ and change the…[Read more]

@rae
Warning, I like ridiculous and outlandish pet names.
Boy names: Alphonso, Frederick, Enrique, Sir Fluffyface, Richard, Bilbo, Frodo, Zephaniah, Heliodor, pretty much anything with Sir in front, Hubert, Wilfred, Petruchio, Mercutio, Benedict, Dietrich, Oswald the Destroyer, Garfield, Gandalf, Aragorn, Benvolio, Mercutio, Cinnabar,…[Read more] -
Hmm… you could name them all after birds (it would be ironic but kind of cute).
Other ideas are (kind of random):
Zephyr
Cinnamon
Stardust (could be Dusty for short)
Coffee
Sylph
Flick

Wait, SALMONELLA???? As in SALMONELLA POISINING?!?!?!?!?!?-
