My favorite photos from the Olympics are of this Italian figure skater Daniel Grassl. He looks absolutely insane in so many of them. It's great.

I think both this post and the romance author AI story aren’t really about AI, they’re about people in those industries showing how poorly they think of the people who consume the work they produce. That romance author came off like Carol in Pluribus about her audience, and this is kind of the same.

"AI work is just as good as human work" is a statement that *always* flows from the direction of power. Employers to workers, producers to consumers, but not the reverse. Because it's not a thing people actually believe, but an argument: slop is good enough for you; you are slop.
