- Block the domain and never use AI again
Are there any decent periodicals still being printed? I haven’t look in at least 15 years.
Well that’s nice to see.
I didn’t realise Viz was still going
Number 43 will SHOCK me?
Yeah, it’s “Ask ChatGPT how to do electrical work on your house! Save money instead of hitting trained professionals”
They want stupid people which they can manipulate with their LLMs. AI may be usefull for science and medicine, because it can solve problems in minutes or days which with traditional work needs years, but in particular use to do the own tasks is an absolute horror.

I have No Ass, And I Am Constipated
I feel like LLMs would be a fun toy, like a magic 8 ball. I mean, if they could exist without the environmental damage and grand theft of human knowledge. And the risk of AI psychosis. But this obsession with using it for everything is just nauseating.
In The Penultimate Truth by Philip K Dick one of the characters has an LLM in a box called a rhetoricizer, where you give it some keywords or a phrase and it generates copy. It’s pretty much dismissed as a toy there.
Give it time. If everyone is generating copy, we’ll all yearn for unpolished, stupid and short text.
Some Olopen models can run on some higher end phones and decent video cards. These don’t need giant data centers.
Yeah IMO they’re brain rotting novelties at best but letting kids have access to them should be a felony.
When I was in the fifth grade, I wrote a series of short stories about five cats driving around in a '57 Chevy solving crimes.
I’d take foolscap, fold it in half and draw a cover for the issues.
The point of this story is that even those covers had better, more dynamic graphic design fundamentals that the soulless piece of shit on the shelf here. And I was 10…
AI is so good that it has to be advertised ad nauseum, the most important and powerful amazing technology ever but we need billions in marketing and advertising, sure thing
You know what else prep shopping list? Notepad apps and shopping catalogues!
AI tries and tries but we don’t want it if it’s someone else making gains.
I’m a driver… AI can help you!.. No more drivers, AI can drive now.
Am a painter… AI can help you!.. No more painters, Al can paint now.
Hey you want a painting? Just purchase it from AI! We’ll drive it to you, just pay AI.
The Viz magazine next to it will improve your life more.
Also whatever that WW1 Gallipoli magazine has to say in the bottom right. Glory to the ANZAC forces for showing bravery in such a shit and botched operation, let no one say they were cowards.
Note I’m a Californian I just know what badasses look like and can damned well respect it.
reareasons 1 to 47, it makes you sure you want to kill sam altman
The numbers 47 and 42 are sacrosanct. The former is Trek where it shows up a lot, the latter is the answer to everything. Pick a different number, ChatGPT!
Wait, get us a copy of Viz!
