"ChatGPT has not massively leveled up; it’s biggest use cases remain as an automated homework plagiarizer for student essays, a marketing email generator for copywriters, a rote code creator for software engineers, and a PowerPoint and blog post image compiler for anyone unconcerned with IP rights or ethically sourcing artists’ work."
Thank you. Especially for saying what needed to be said on that last one. GenAI art doesn't make anyone's blogs look better. This was cute for a minute, but should have been done a year ago. No one's doing the thing anymore where they have ChatGPT write the first two paragraphs of an article about ChatGPT and then say "surprise, ChatGPT wrote all that!". If we can let that go, we can also stop showing readers whatever Stable Diffusion shits about when we prompt it with the title of the blog post.
Brian, this is a nice contrast to the article Casey Newton published last night.
Oh man I have THOUGHTS about that one
