Adobe After Effects. Despite being an unstable spaghetti code nightmare, there is no other viable option for professional motion graphics designers.

Nah it's fine here. Best not to split content on an already small platform.

AI is about at creative as Adobe Photoshop is, or a pencil for that matter. A human operating it (no, not txt2img prompting) is where the creativity comes from.

I mean... That's what the culture was at the time. No need to name call over it. It is well documented and any attempt to obfuscate it is revisionism.

Our discussion is prompting me to look more into the history here, though. Your comment on modern generals' statements is intriguing. That lead me to learn about Soviet entry into the war, defeating Japan in Manchuria, which may have promoted talk of surrender among Japanese leadership.

I'll certainly keep researching and I'm open to changing my view. Feel free to present me with some material to consider rather than calling me racist.

Ants is a pretty apt comparison to Japanese culture at the time. All expected to become soldiers and die for the hive. Seriously, shit was crazy. They were not going to surrender otherwise.

Firebombings were daily killing more than the bombs did as well.

Me, I'll benefit the most. I've been using a locally running instance of the free and open source AI software Stable Diffusion to generate artwork for my D&D campaigns and they've never looked more beautiful!

It's not smart or stupid. It does what it's been trained on, nothing more.

My turn: Channel divinity, turn undead

Wizard's turn: Fireball, breaking all the turns and hitting me in the process

Plus decorum in Congress. Elected officials were literally beating each other with canes.
