Because yes, Thanksgiving as a national holiday has to do with the Civil War and not the Puritans or previously proclaimed days of Thanksgiving (of which there were hundreds) - so be sure, as you gather about the table, to give thanks for the victories brought by Union arms at Vicksburg & Gettysburg

Who the hell is this slop for? Everything about it is awful and it shouldn't exist. Forget my last nuanced thread and pitch this shit into the sun.

It's actually a good example of how dogshit AI "research" is. the text will seem fine and then just make crap up that's 100% not in the book, like references to combat deployments I NEVER DID. It's also very repetitive in a really weird and stilted way no human writer would do, not even a bad one.

AI in its original sense is still there as a normal thing for normal people to study and work on, and a bunch of people with no real connection to the waves of AI slop getting dumped into our social media feeds are catching splash damage for using the evil letters "A" and "I", which is bad and dumb.

AI hate is the product of AI grifters ramming products labeled as AI down the public's throat that all suck monumental amounts of ass, or AT BEST are narrowly useful widgets being passed off as all-purpose miracle boxes.
AI grifters manufactured the AI hate, to which I mostly say "tough titty." BUT

You can write about yourself and still not really control what readers take from it, even though what the heck do they know about YOU, because half of the equation it is their own perspective. You can't control that, and that's not necessarily a bad thing. They might be wrong - or *more* perceptive.

This might sound like an ego trip but positive feedback also startles the crap out of me for reasons that will probably pay for my therapist's kitchen renovation lol
