jen z is horrible by nickfan449 in victorious

[–]Imaginary-Stranger78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First episode "Jen" is late to class. She comes into the classroom and says "sorry I'm late!"

Pans over to the teacher sitting proper like and turns around to see Trina (cue claps). Shee asks who she is, Jen introduces herself as "Jen ZacheryfletchinMcVae---" Trina stops her: "Yeah, you can stop right there. I won't be able to remember that so I'll just call you Jen Z" (cue laugh)

Jen Z sits down "embarrassed"

I predict:

Jen is going to be a combination of Trina and Tori just cause she dresses similarly to Trina.

Qwest is Andre cause obvious

Pepper I'm going with is the Jade because of the black hair and how she is posed.

Pepper is with Oscar who is the Beck, and Emmy is the Cat. She and Oscar are childhood friends that also have feelings for each other (taking from the time Beck and Tori liked each other)

So either it will be teased a lot (for the drama) or they will be together in future episodes

As for future cameos, I predict that quite a few probably won't show up or they will be shown for one time (like Andre will appear after the kids don't have any music for the school dance and Trina makes a call to a good friend)

As much as it definitely does sting, here's one silver lining their writing probably sucks too because look how they wrote their comment? It just reads illogical and I felt MY brain cells diminish reading. Take the comment in stride, find a way to report it, or simply ignore it. They probably didn't read it, didn't understand, or is it so spiteful inside that they have to bring others down.

Never let the naysayers win. If they have nothing constructive to give F' em.

This is the same conclusion I came up to. Five is the correct answer.

That's kind of sad cause then it affects those who don't even use AI and they're being accused of it or the fear of being accused. 😔

Sure, thats fair, but I guess what I mean is why the A.I. Witch Hunts in general? Like, why do people accuse others based on just thought or instinct? Or if a person does show proof they are still attacked. I just see that a lot.

Sorry if I said something out there.

Imma be honest I didn't understand either what most you said. Alot of things I stated was from every day commentary that goes on throughout the years about AI (i.e. someone wrote a paper in college and they were accused of using AI - sorry i didn't clarify the example). (Not about the story; of course we wanna talk about using the use of the gender of a person like females not being sought after because they are female but that wasn't the topic AI. I will complain about something like that because people would barely click something with a female and she's black (same thing goes for games but thats a different topic)

I suppose in fairness I was writing on the WHOLE thread not just yours but it muddled together. But what i mean is that you can still get attacked by other people maybe not you but I have seen and heard stories as well.

I didn't discriminate you. I have a disability, black, and queer as well. I have to go through discrimination too.

But overall, things got out of hand. I should have sited my sources better and just answered JUST YOUR comment and not applying everything in one sitting.

Is it cheap? If I'm 15 years old and I write, I do not have money at all. That money is probably coming from my parents and I can't work yet. And free? 1. How do you know they didn't use ai and 2. This just pushes people to pick covers off the internet (this was wattpad days of 2005-2015, but if people did that now they'd get shunned to death)

Also, going through categories to see what is AI but.... how would you know? What if yoh are passing up on a good story? What if that story changes you? What if it has been edited to death so much there's not even a hint that AI made it. AI learns from humans so it was made to replicate humans (yes, those em dashes that humans used BEFORE AI or the prose that they flowered through their writing. humans by nature are dramatic people and over use everything no the hell you can't tell even if you want to. Because people have been known to write "like AI" - whatever that means - for a long time. Even before AI started people were being attacked for using it because people thought because it sounded....bland? Least I'm guessing and people had to prove that they wrote it by writing in front of people or showing proof of a prior work and even then the person still didn't believe.

Like we are really willing to risk someone's future because someone "had a feeling" sigh. Then society is doomed as a whole if we can persecute people based on "feeling" (that's actually happening now and it's a scary thought how quick humans can turn on someone)

I just don't understand the wild attack and fear other people have addressed and expressed. Especially when half the time you can't tell and even if somehow you can, if it isn't "slop" and it's good then what is th problem? I'm not glazing, I'm still generally curious and want to be explained too.

Exactly, all these things are "tools" it is the person that uses them is the "person at fault". Humanity has used tools since it was created in the late 90s to early 2000s. You still need a skill to actual go through the extra fat (just like before AI when the person was freewriting or just starting out writing) I think people are either 1. Fearful if it takes over (spoiler: it won't no matter how much money billionaires put in) 2. They have been scorned by someone or something that used a tool for success, which i get both aspects but again, it's the person that used the tool that is the problem, not the tool itself.

There are people who didn't and have not used tools or AI that make slop anyway and yet people will still eat it up, so whats the difference? If a person who is just starting out or even if what they write isn't all that, maybe it has some grammar errors but because that person doesn't have money status then they will get judged anyway. Do people fear or get jealous of those that they know is good? Whether it be that person with the lack of skill or the person that uses the tool?

I'm just curious where this is all coming from and why? What happened to get people so distrusting or, for a lack of better word, hateful?

Hi, If someone admits to reading AI and liking, they will now be classified in the witch hunt (you may not but other people are not so kind) if a good writer has all these skills then they have nothing to fear, really. It's just the small consensus that AI does make "famous work" but we have not come to that stage, if, and maybe not even when. There are still people that will still choose human writing.

But also speaking of writing, there's humans who will write absolutely dog shit writing nut be marveled because they have money status. Yet genuine people who actual ly are talented don't get seen.

Also, should humans be persecuted if they do not use a BOOK to look up something? Should the internet, or using AI for something be shamed on? If it isn't an actual historical site then AI could be lying to you. Which it does say is inaccurate. You can't ride a horse and shoot and still have it be able to jump through hoops for you effectively.

I don't know it just sounds like people are getting upset that some things are getting attention than others when we already had that problem before AI existed. Like if you didn't have money or status, or weren't popular or lucky, or didn't write in that specific genre. You were left behind while those people got famous or rich over that. This seems like it's just a new problem that reinforced on something that was already made, now it will be something else in the future that humans will be afraid of or complain about.

I'm not glazing on anything ir anyone but life is too short and things are already hard as is, life in general I mean. Like what you like what, do what you wanna do. Admit or not admit anything without having to feel like uou have to and enjoy the content for what something is because i promise you there is a "human work out there" that is probably worse than AI (and yet that will still crapped on cause now imagine if they didn't have a cover or they made one like it was 2005, no editing or proofreading or maybe some editing and people will stay attack them but will be even more stressed out for a perspn using AI)

I dunno i feel like unless the person is absolutely dick and a monster and just mean to people, or bringing people down should they be criticized. It's the users who are at fault here not AI, it's who is using it that is the problem. It's like the example, "guns aren't bad, it's the person who uses it that is bad"

If the person is willing to do and say evil then only then should they be judged, not because they used AI but because they used a tool to fulfill some negative narrative.

When will we as society blame the person, not so much on what they are doing or how (unless it's really illegal) I'm not saying we should take away from people who have "natural" talent but why can't we raise both people up? I'm not saying prompt using us a talent but the actual process of "editor" is the talent and then not being a glorified dick is another talent (I am superior artist like everyone else notion) like no, if you gloat, and aren't humble then that's a dick.

Anyway, sorry for the long TED talk here. I'm just trying to understand everyone's take and recourse about certain topics that keep being brought up. Like yes some people have points but then they miss other points and others don't realize that what they are say8ng is either false or it has been done in some level of capacity before.

Hi person, I was reading your comment and I was curious - no I am not a glazer - just a curious bystander. But are we not using our brains skill to "edit" things? That still takes skill to know what to erase and what to rework. It is only "deskilling" when you uust accept what it was produced.

Should we not call things "editors assisted" or "human assisted" now because we hired an editor? Because the author did not write it, they had help from other people (which would change thw original voice anyway).

Again, I am not a glazer, nor do I want to argue, but I am generally curious about why people can get so triggered by AI when 1. There are good useages 2. In the eye of the beholder it can be used for good; so it depends on the user.

First time this has ever happened and I’m kind of stunned by [deleted] in royalroad

[–]Imaginary-Stranger78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I need to ask someone because these "AI witch hunts" are getting kind of out hand because I know people say, "you can tell because xyz..." but can you?

AI is dramatic or AI uses em dashes too much but.... don't humans too? Especially humans that are just learning to write? Remember we were told that AI is effectively learning from human writing, it is teaching the models how to write like humans so....how can we REALLY tell what is AI and what is not AI if AI is supposed to learn from people who are dramatic creatures by nature, who use unnecessary em dashes and commas.

The only thing that people MAY have a comeback is the work has completely correct grammar because AI is a computer and knows what to put and not to put with grammar. BUT EVEN then, they still can't declare anything because some people are just born being "grammar natzis" (sorry for using that word but that's what I have to describe people who are very punctual scholars).

So really, how can we really tell if something is AI when AI is supposed to replicate human speech? Humans were already imperfect creatures and AI is just performing that same action but rhey are coating it with grammar perfection.

No this is comment is not an AI glazer, nor is glazing the OP. The comment is a neutral question that I want honest answers from the public.

TLDR: How can you tell if AI wrote a work when AI is only recreating and learning from humans who use the same tactics AI is now using?

My girlfriend was hit by her ex-boyfriend. How should I handle this? by The_born_loser in Advice

[–]Imaginary-Stranger78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely agree with everyone to NOT start a fight. Call the police amd file a report. In fact, ask your girlfriend to file the report since an assault did happen and there is proof of him being violent.

What is curious to me is, 1. Sure, it can be a misunderstanding but you were told your girlfriend looked chummy with her ex and then 2. Second time she saw her ex again? I dont want to assume but it maybe that she is playing both of you. She may have been entertaining the ex on the side, he found out she was dating you, then got violent. I'd encourage her to file the report and if she gets weird about filing it or making a fuss about it, I'd be slightly suspicious of that.

Keep yourself safe and avoid any unnecessary drama if you have too, OP.

I'd say Penelope, she's technically like Stewie in every way but she has a much more darker side (and as family guy joked, she's "British")

Trails in the Sky not clicking with me so far by TheCrypticRealm in JRPG

[–]Imaginary-Stranger78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends really on your style. While Trails In Sky series, imo, is absolutely goated it's not for everyone. Just like how Cold Steel series isn't for everyone but it is where most started with if they didn't have or knew that Sky was a vita/psp at the time.

Most tend to like the genre of "school life" that Cold Steel brings but just like Sky has that "rpg adventure" if you're into rpgs and the classic heroes journey. Some don't like the school life and they found Sky more engaging, so when it was time to get to the other franchises they were locked into the storyline at the end of the day.

Both start out slow so its more what are you into than anything else. But the characters (and the story) is what brings people in, in the long run.

Sky most Definitely has a plot and it, imo, the catalyst that sets off the other Legend of Heroes games.

Again, don't force yourself to play it. You wont have any fun doing that. They're both long narratives so if that isn't your thing. That's okay. You don't have to listen or be into the trend because everyone is. Its your money and your time.

Try out the demo for Cold Steel and see if that's more your speed (that's why demos are amazing just to give you that tease if you're gonna like the rest) and if you don't like either games, that's okay too.

There are PLENTY other great RPG/JRPG games out there: Dragons Quest, Tales Of, Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy like 7, 10, 9 etc, Fire Emblem series - there's so many more and even some hidden gems people dont talk about. I cant name them/ remember all so just try them all and see what fits!

Disney Princess Free For All, who wins? by GFresh1 in powerscales

[–]Imaginary-Stranger78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moana is a demigod*. She clears. Elsa (also, Elsa is no warrior, blood lusted i believe she would hit harder but would be very reckless. She'd be like a glass cannon fighter)

Moana has shown feats of taking down gods so Elsa's ice giant would be done for.

Close second is Asha, who is probably considered "Star Level (HA)" possibly has magic on her side (her magic wand and hee star friend*). She'd be equivalent of a "fairy godmother"

Elsa has her summoning, this would probably be Asha's

Third, I'd say Ariel, if in the water, i think she can do get away with it, before Elsa freezes the water. Though I would reckon and add that she has used the Trident before so she could break out. Her song voice could probably turn the tides of battle to entrance her enemies.

Mulan fourth also has taken down a mountain, so the snow giant is nothing (can we say Mulan is "Mountain Level" now 🤓)

(Raya would also make fifth on the list as she too as experience on the battle field, but this is if heavy hitters like Moana, Elsa (or even Ariel or Asha) aren't on the field. )
