    This is one of those ideas that would really benefit from a short video demo, gif, or even a screenshot directly in the README. Otherwise, the title reads like a "Curtains for Zoosha?" meme. [0]

    I understand that this is kind of beside the point, but it seems like a bad thing to compare inventions to haunted artifacts that mind controlled their users into betraying their friends to a powerfully evil being. (Though since it is being powered by GenAI, which has also driven people to do bad things, perhaps it is an apt comparison.)

      Why would that comparison be bad if it's accurate?

      Also, "sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic". Both can be made good and evil.

        It’s not accurate, it’s absurd hyperbole no different from the kind the people who peddle it have arrogantly ridiculed their entire lives.

        A mentally unstable person being “made” to do something by a chatbot is no different from other mentally unstable people doing bad things because they saw them in a TV show.

      Once/if we lose understanding of the tech it will become magic/haunted artifacts.

    If Fable can now create horcruxes, the Commerce Department should seriously consider another time out.

    > No screen glow, no keyboard, no chat UI. Just ink appearing on paper.

    No soul. No care. No consideration. Just slop appearing as text. Shut the *fuck* up BOT. How in the hell is this not the most appalling, offensive smell by now? All this says to me is someone proompted some garbage into barely working, didn't even bother to look at what the stupid token machine generated for a readme. How unfathomably embarassing.

    I cannot take any project seriously no matter how silly it presents itself as if this sort of obvious slop CRAP makes it into what is presented. Good fucking god give the slightest hint of a fuck if you want me to care at all about what you're throwing into the aether. Rub a few brain cells together, please.

    This is sick, in the 90's Tony Hawk sense of the word.

    I love that people can just bang stuff into existence now.

    There were times in my life where I would wait for an engineering team to change the color of a button for a day to a week.

    We are not in the slow times anymore.

        I remember it taking long enough (they had to wait for another project to need a lot of that color) that we wound up using dope to mock it up. (Regular paint didn't hold and just chipped off.)

    Ginevra was my favourite and the most beautiful character in the HP films. Poor Ginny. Relieved that she survived all that. One tough cookie.
