It’s fine that David Simon is against AI but you don’t have to hand it to a Zionist

Juno Rylee Schultz @junoryleejournalism.com · 5d

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

I never thought Trump actually believed in heaven, but if he does and he also believes he won’t go there, that’s really funny to me.

Fine, I’ll leave

A box with a hole in it and a cat bed inside. A cat is lying on top and another cat is inside and they are both looking at me like they want me to leave

A couple houses with busted in roofs because they’re about to be demolished. The moon can be seen above them and most of the space in the photo is taken up by the clear sky above them

This probably isn’t true, actually. I’m pretty sure the president isn’t allowed to break the law.

My public restroom etiquette is simple. If my dick is out I don’t want to talk to you. You can talk to me while I’m washing my hands but I still won’t like it
