Considering the number of anime sites which have been taken down in the last month, it's having an effect.

Why is it problematic? As I asked, how is this any different than asking people to help with a particular passage? If they give you suggestions and you act on those suggestions, is it not "fruit of the poisonous tree"? It's not your work any longer, is it? It's the work they gave you.

I am not defending the wholesale use of AI in writing. I'm asking only about specific lines or maybe a paragraph, where you know it's not right, but aren't sure how to correct it.

Beta readers are technically doing the same thing. You give your work to them and they offer you suggestions for changes or edits. No different than AI/LLM.

Let us suppose you are writing a story/book and you know there are places which you just can't quite get the wording the way you want it.

If you plug only that portion into an LLM and ask for suggestions, would that be considered "cheating"? If so, why would that be any different than asking someone, or someones, to read what you wrote and offer suggestions?

I'm not saying that's what happened here, clearly it was all written by a machine, but is using such a tool to edit your work or get suggestions, bad?

They're not gambling if you have a real-world stake in an outcome addressed by one of these markets.

I have a real-world stake in the outcome of a roulette spin. Either I win money or I don't. How is that any different than saying I win or lose if something happens or doesn't happen on one of these markets?

For some reason, the Control Panel is still here after 10+ years of trying to get the Settings app to be feature complete

Because Control Panel is the best and fastest way to find what you want. It is clearly laid out, descriptive, and allows you to get things done.

Whereas, Settings is configured as if someone threw a ball of yarn into a box and let a cat play with it, then the cat threw up from playing so hard.

No, it's fine. Texas says so.

I'd prefer if it applied to people who drive below the speed limit, brake at green lights, or who brake going down small hills. That, and those who drive Subarus or Buicks.

You want Iran to have nukes to spite Trump.

I want Irant to have nukes to piss off Israel.

We are not the same.

One aspect of enshittification that people don't talk about much is that sites do need to make money to continue. They can't be free forever.

Yes they can. If musicians, software companies, and movie producers don't need to be paid for what they produce, these sites don't need to be paid either.

An AI has no capability to have feelings

And what is a feeling? Based on Wiki:

In other words, a feeling is a reaction to an external stimuli. Since reactions are nothing but the neural connections in our brains responding to the external stimuli, there is little reason to say an AI, with its digital connections, can't respond to external stimuli in a similar fashion.

Bcause your sister couldn't be bothered to write things down, this is MS' fault?

I personally pronounce giraffe with a soft G. So it would be geraff and not jiraff.

Don't hate the player.

RealID is so important to security, it can't be used to prove you are a U.S. citizen. So says DHS, the people administering the RealID program.

And should be treated as such.

No enterprise concerns if you can just tick a policy box.

And for home users, people who don't know what GPO is let alone have access to it? They're just screwed, aren't they?
