Yeah I used to think that all these Tesla fan channels on YouTube and Instagram were because the brand was seen as somehow special and exciting, like Apple used to be under Steve Jobs. But now I’ve come to the conclusion that most of them are being paid under the table and not declaring it, because their collective reactions to the past year or more of insanity just don’t pass the sniff test.
I used a scientific approach in the science memes community.
The issue is that your application of “the scientific approach” is to dismiss the entire field of research up to now, and demand that OP prove their point from first principles. It’s not a reasonable response to what they posted.
What we’re seeing here is an example of how it’s possible to be both right and very wrong at the same time.
You don’t seem to care about actual science.
…and the second issue is that you’re now attacking the integrity of the people calling you out on it, for no clear benefit other than to put them down. Go back and read Rule #1.
hur, hur, you said VAG
umm guys this isn’t a news article, it’s a Black Mirror episode
A lot of people think of “venomous” as being a one-dimensional property like strength or speed that you have to build your way up towards. But really it’s just how this substance your body produces that reacts with another substance in another creature who evolved on a whole other continent to you.
There doesn’t need to be a strong evolutionary imperative to be able to kill a herd of elephants, it’s enough for there to not be a strong disincentive not to produce enough venom to do it.
If you think that replacing a person with an object cannot be an artistic choice
Literally nobody is saying or thinking that. What we are saying is that there is absolutely no way that OP’s prompt contained “…and make the optimist BE the glass itself…”.
The irony is that you’re giving OP way more benefit of the doubt in your reading of what they produced than you’ve given me, and instead argued against a complete strawman.
Yeah. Fascist criminals like Yaxley-Lennon in the UK cry about their free speech, and when you look at the cases it’s stuff like trying to intimidate juries, or inciting crowds to set fire to buildings containing asylum seekers.
You have my sympathies, but that still doesn’t mean you get to post complete nonsensical garbage where a glass of water is talking for no reason, that took you less effort to create than it did to read, and expect people to not tell you to jog on, when there’s a whole wealth of creative artists out there who are putting in the energy but getting their space flooded with slop.
The web has objectively become much, much worse in the past 12 months because quality is getting drowned out by quantity.
Don’t talk about ability to draw as though it’s some sort of elitist trait denied to the working class. People who can draw can do so because they put the hours in.
If you can’t be bothered putting the effort in when expressing yourself, why the hell should anyone else be interested in what you have to say?
The reason this one is blatant AI is that the imagery doesn’t make any sense. Why is the glass of water itself the optimist?

I googled the author, he’s a Tech Bro pretending to be a media critic. Shame on The Guardian for publishing this moronic clickbait guff.
I would say the guy clearly doesn’t understand the most basic concepts of fiction, except I suspect he probably does but is ignoring them in order to push his agenda.
Thank you.
“I don’t have to know CS201 Data Structures and Algorithms to do my job”, says a thousand D-tier coders online, whose code is costing their employers a small fortune in unnecessary cloud compute bills because they just blindly imported a ton of python libraries and went with the least suitable data structures and algorithms for the task at hand, because that’s what the defaults were for that library. “It fulfils all the requirements from the client perfectly, bow to my experience and skill in delivering customer value”.
It’s classic Dunning-Kruger, incompetent people who are too incompetent to know they’re incompetent.
Bonus points when they cite the fact that they were involved with a project that cost a hundred million dollars, as “proof” that they’re a world-class expert, when it probably would have been a ten million dollar project with an actually competent engineer…
Imagine sucking so bad it makes the news.
That was the opposite of nuance. It was pedantry that deliberately missed the point.
Sod 'em.
Also, screw it, #79 should be Aurium.
You’d really be fucking Spandau Ballet over with that one.
Or it’s rendered at 1080 and upscaled…
When an influential group of powerful people make hate speech a part of their standard rhetoric, is EXACTLY when you MUST block it on your platform, not a signal that it’s time to start letting it slide, you fucking pricks.
It’s definitely a joke or some sort of weird art statement, the only thing that bothers me is that I once got my decade-old account banned from LinkedIn for posting a job that they decided was discriminatory because it had a language requirement, and yet somehow this has passed their filters?
