Someone had a video playing the other day, which I was within hearing proximity of.

In my half listening state all was well until a simple metaphor raised it's head.

Nothing to the extent that proves the production method, but I was instantly slopspitious and annoyed.

We are now blessed with a new tax by which one must analyse the depth of thought that went into any digital product that we give our time to.

I use AI a ton, and have no problem with others doing the same. What's annoying is when laziness wins over quality... Refinement IS the new work.

The sad part is that it ruins it for everyone else. Someone may have put hours of work into that video, but due to AI's tendency to state the same thing is different ways several times, now a simple metaphor makes an entire video annoying.

This article was written by hand laboriously in a dark cave. Just kidding, but it is 0% AI assistance.
