What You See Is What You Get. This is a journal blog, an explore-blog, a bit of this and that blog. Sharing where the mood takes me. Perhaps it will take you too.

Bringing you a 'guest video' today... One thing that is moving at a rapid pace in the world is AI substitution. The writing world is littered (particularly on the biggest platform you can think of) with absolute pulp created to grab your hard-earned and, quite likely, scraped from authentic authors' works. I admit that I had been spotting a few things when looking at crochet patterns that had me wondering... and then along came this delightful wee presentation on that very subject. You don't have to sit through the entire parrot part (you'll understand when you get there), but the first seven minutes or so are definitely worth listening to, as are the closing comments... but the parrot bit is fun if you are keen on understanding the frustrations.

  1. Hello YAM,

    I am not a fan of AI, this is the first I have heard of the AI crochet.
    Take care, have a great weekend.

  2. YAM what a delightful young lady. (Her hand was a bit distracting in the beginning). Crocheting is 100% about flow and easy. AI is truly scary. I watched it all and oh my word what craziness with instructions. The parrot looks like something we'd see in Jurassic Park. Hugs Cecilia

  4. love to hear her talk, but did not watch but a little of it, she might as well be speaking Greek, but I did get the gist of it and the parrot doesn't look at all like it. I had no idea this is going on

  5. That's a good video about the rampant fake work being promoted by AI scammers.

  7. Never crossed my mind that someone would use AI to try and create something like a crochet pattern - given that AI simply scrapes and effectively rehashes (and avoids conclusiveness) I can't imagine how anyone could think it might write something like a crochet pattern.
