Work has rolled out co-pilot to some select employees. I volunteered and it has been underwhelming. I don’t get it. I work at a university, why is co-pilot offering to write for me? Is using AI to write plagiarism? I tried it out and it was complete corporate-speak drivel 😖 #work #ai

@liztai I like the hair!

Workshop day. Making the deck joists/bearers. They are oddly shaped so we made a template. Also the arc beam is being sanded. Models shown for reference, its an outdoor classroom #workshop #timber #architecture

Made some #onigiri. Although I had to stop halfway through to lie down again. L to R. Baked miso, sesame wasabi, salmon snd mayo. #food

Did I get an extra hour? Or lose one? After all these years I still get confused and have to count on my fingers 🤔 #daylightSaving

Tried to get into peertube. No response from the instance I applied to. It’s been 5 days. Does anyone use #peertube?

Happy mooncake festival! It’s today 🥰 I almost forgot but went past Kenzo’s Kitchen and they were baking! One is lotus seed and the other is red bean #food #Launceston #AsianMastodon #moonCake #Chinese

@liztai If you’re able to write in english… a blanket “no” to generative AI doesnt affect you but makes writing harder for non-english writer. (Replace english with other languages?) @justincox

@liztai Your use case highlights why a blanket “no” to generative AI is ableist. @justincox

@liztai Their motivations are so transparent!@amin @justincox

@liztai I asked ChatGPT to write a short story and it was disastrous!!! Every iteration was more unhinged and strange as the one before. ChatGPT works best when I ask it to explain things to me. Kinda like a search BOT. I also ask it to get code snippets. @justincox

@justincox I like that they made a distinction between generative and non-generative AI. But all sense goes out the window after that. Many authors use grammarky etc and are especially helpful for writers whose first language is not English. @liztai

It’s Monday everyone 👀 Another week coming at you 💕 Started mine with snugs with Pete 💚🦜🤩 #parrot #birb

@liztai Love this! It must feel good to look up from the street to see your little oasis up in the sky 💕

@liztai I would like recommendations in all genres!

Audiobook recommendations? I usually listen to sci-fi and space opera. But once I made a purchase of a book by mistake and thoroughly enjoyed it (Underground Airlines by Ben Winters) so tell me which ones stand out for you! #bookstodon #AudioBooks
