they're telling me I need to be AI literate, but why can't AI just be AI literate for me?
stop bothering me with stuff, I'm trying to vegetate
translating something you know you'll never witness the reception of nor receive credit for is hard core - I don't see how you have any choice but to do it?
who is it?
[Bodies are] more tender than the majority of things on Earth. You can pierce through them with a needle, with a nail, it would be easy, you wouldn’t even have to push that hard.
