    I’ve been experimenting with using AI to clean up graphics I’ve made, and the other day I was trying to get it to distribute the points of light on a sun graphic evenly around the center circle, without changing any of the shapes or colors. Just distribute the 12 points evenly like a clock.

    It couldn’t do it for the longest time. It would spit out the original graphic with no changes. Or it would get it perfectly but change the shape of the points. Infuriatingly, whenever I would give it a new prompt, it would repeat it back to me, but make dumb suggestions. I’d have to refuse the suggestions, and demand the original prompt, and it would still ask more questions.

    I finally had to scream at it in caps, tell it to stop asking stupid questions, and just do what my simple prompt has asked it to do MULTIPLE times.

    Then it finally did what it was told. What was literally a 60 second assignment, took 15 minutes of increasing frustration because the AI would NOT follow my orders until I screamed at it. It had its own agenda.

    That’s supposed to be an improvement? AI sounds and acts like the dumbest employee ever.

      They’re just modeling human behavior at the end of the day. Or at least what they think is human enough, it’s hilarious that in a way they mess up worse than regular people and they’re being pitched as coworkers.

      I mean we’re probably all screwed but hey at least the Earth will be on fire while we meme it up.
