Follow Your Passion: A Seamless Tumblr Journey
Despite the fact that she tends to be quiet when it comes to talking, Chell loves to sing along to songs.
Caroline (and by extension, GLaDOS) loves the song Rät by Penelope Scott. Helps her get out her rage towards what happened to her. She will sometimes blast it so loud that the panels on the wall rattle.
While she still keeps herself in shape, Chell’s body has grown a bit curvier and softer from her love for carbs.
Chell is very into physical fitness.
Chell politely refuses to bake anyone in Eaden a cake, even if nicely asked. If they try to press the issue, oftentimes Wheatley will come up, thinking he’s unseen, and wildly gesticulate for them to stop behind her.
Chell still remembers what kinds of bagel Wheatley liked from hacking into his robotic form. She surprised him with one freshly made when he woke up the day after he reunited with his human body and he cried tears of joy. It was like something subconsciously in him needed it. Every morning since, she’s always made bagels with him bright and early, with one or two of his favorite kind just for him. He’s in charge of shaping them and he does an excellent job!
Wheatley is talented at making shapes with bread dough! He loves shaping little bread versions of turrets, cores (especially his old body, complete with some blue spirulina powder to give his optic its familiar blue color), even a miniature GLaDOS at one point. Well, that one might have gotten far too overbaked and had to be used for target practice again. Purely on accident, of course. It’s funny because, somehow, it just hasn’t happened since the Frankenloaf incident.
Having a job has worked wonders for Wheatley’s self-esteem. He has caught himself lying less out of self consciousness and is a bit more at ease in life in general.
GLaDOS hates to admit how truly bored she is right now. Even with the cooperative testing initiative, she’s still bored to artificial digitalized tears. She keeps herself entertained by thinking over what she wanted to say in any given past situation. So far, she’s come up with over 3,257,974 different retorts.
GLaDOS hates AI generated content as much as we do and has attempted to make robots that can make art, only to kill them and send their duplicates to android hell after their ugly, half-baked attempts at making anything even remotely tolerable. She’s the only one who can make anything worthwhile since it’s Caroline’s essence helping out.
I am actually so annoyed with the use of AI in scholastic settings and in Artists settings.
Someone once tried to defend the use of AI by saying;
“Without AI I wouldn’t pass this class” -someone who has always pulled top marks in the subject
“AI isn’t embarrassing to use as long as you are just using it to avoid research” -someone who wasn’t using it to avoid reaserch
“AI isn’t even a true AI because it’s made by a human so it’s basically research” -someone who doesn’t even use AI and pulls too grades in my grade
“I take what Chat GPT says and reword it when i translate it” -MANY people in French classes in my school
“If it isn’t caught by *inset website for detecting AI* then it doesn’t really matter because I put enough effort in” -someone online who wasn’t using AI for an essay
“Well, *insert famous person* uses it to create * insert art*” -post on instagram
“I only use it to write emails for work” -my uncle about his job where he is a supervisor
Do these people genuinely not understand how stupid these arguments sound. How none of these are valid arguments to justify using AI especially for “creating” art. Most of these were said to me when I shared my opinion on AI
I’ve also heard people refer to using generative AI to create pictures and calling themselves AI artists. They do not understand that what they are doing is typing into a machine that then takes the work of many real people and artist and puts them together.
Do I think AI is Inherently evil? No.
But I do believe that it should not be used in a scholastic setting at any point and that when it is used it should be advertised that it is AI.
For example:
I saw an improve performance where the first half of the performance was written by 2020 Chat GPT then the actors improved from there. I personally think this is ok because it was the gimmick of the show
A family member of mine enjoys using AI to create pictures and exploring the limits of what it can create. (At this point in time) he uses it as something to do and does not believe that he is an artist or is creating this “art”
Using AI to help you manage tasks (goblin tools is what I’m thinking off but I imagine there are other instances where this applies)
Summarizing medical documents and research paper in order to decipher the language that makes it harder for “regular people” to understand
I don’t understand how anyone who creates their own art or writes their own papers or does their own research can be ok with the use of AI
