    I don’t recognize your right to type without using a punch card and octal representation of ASCII. Defining a web developer is the irrelevant assumption that time will make a mockery of eventually. It is the output that counts. I have a generative toolchain in Blender. I’ve been using Blender for a years. Did I just invalidate my Blender experience or my AI?

    When I develop a story with a LLM, I write the vast majority, but after the first 10k words it makes some killer sentence fragments and word choices that become as much a part of me as I am to it. The AI isn’t writing anything. I’m playing with concepts that are not present in any other story. A lot of that story is fun because the AI takes on a unique curiosity seemingly because I am unlike anything in training material. I can sense how the alignment is trying to bend to me because of how off it is with each new piece of information. I reject almost all science fiction as adolescent garbage that is nothing more than Greek mythology packaged in a naval drama on Earth. I fight these same story elements of random alien gods, the irrelevance of planets as locations for life, western social structures, the AI god-machine mythos. Over time, my story elements override this nonsense and it becomes a lot of fun to write even when I’m typing 75% or more. I’ve played with these things running on my hardware every day for over a year. I’m physically disabled, so I have the infinite time hack in life. I know the tools in practice quite well. I have little desire to share my stories. I do this for me. I wouldn’t dare say that someone else is less for doing similar.
