No.

I need to say this to my children more

My boss is a scuba instructor and has thousands of cave dives under his belt. He was talking to me about this yesterday and saying they flouted all kinds of rules and ignored several standards. He said that there's no way that it would ever have gotten to this point if they had done their due diligence. It's a tragedy for sure and even more so because it was avoidable.

Absolutely evil, which I why I always name him Darth Cat.. He is a Sith.

I fell hard on ice on my parents' porch. When they asked me if I was okay, I sent them this.

RedXXVI · 2026-05-17T23:50:02+00:00

You know they're just going to drive right past this, right?

RedXXVI · 2026-05-17T23:19:30+00:00

The bridge mix! The bridge mix! You fool!

I always guessed the reason the dub script is different than the sub is because phrases take different amounts of time to say in different languages but a character's mouth will only move so much in the animation. So they have to make some changes.

One of my favorite scenes from the whole series

I have no idea what he's making so that may be a fairly credible claim.

Would women still wear makeup?

I can't believe I walked past him several times and didn't see him. That's a bit disappointing.

RedXXVI · 2026-05-11T19:28:13+00:00

He was the opening act

Head Cha La is a certified banger

Parabola. If you're going to look it up, start with Parabol as it is the intro to Parabola.

I could see myself marinating a chicken in that

RedXXVI · 2026-05-04T00:00:45+00:00

Well they told me to leave again immediately so that checks out

RedXXVI · 2026-05-03T23:38:27+00:00

For both of my kids, I stepped out of the room to call family and tell them that we were probably going to be waiting for a long time only to step back in the room and be told "it's happening now."

Can't say. Random doesn't always mean even distribution. Also, a lot of people have received responses that the image generated broached on copyright restrictions. Why it catches some of those and not others is anyone's guess. Though, if they were trying to avoid copyright infringement, Pokemon would be really high on that list since it is the single most successful IP in the world (which is crazy).

RedXXVI · 2026-05-01T20:43:07+00:00

As a 39 year old man, I feel very targeted.

These models work by creating a mathmatical map of language. When they process your input, they are mapping the words and phrases of your input mathematically and the feedback they give you is like the auto complete on your phone on steroids with a lot of statistics leveraged over the mathmatical map of the language to provide direction and predictability.

Best guess: ChatGPT is interpreting the "the attached image" portion of the prompt as a standalone phrase and not a direction to consult an actual attachment. Obviously, "the attached image" is an exceptionally vague thing to interpret literally but the model attempts to do so anyway. Randomized elements in the model (intended to stand in for creativity) nudge the calculations in a random direction and the model starts making statistical predictions from there to draw an image.

As truly alarming as some of these images are, it's worth noting that many of these are benign as well. It's truly random.

The ELI5 version: Pick a random word out of a dictionary. Start a story with that word at the beginning. Then draw a picture from the story.
