re: Newsweek Op-Ed about the Writer's Guild Strike: Think of It as Restroying the Film Industry!

Reading the OpEd Piece in Newsweek written by Justine Bateman. I agree that writers need to be compensated better in this highly exploitave industry. But had to push back on both sides of the issue surrounding AI replacing the jobs of writers. I try to respond to the letter point by point, but then decide to let GPT-NeoX-20B finish the rest of the letter for me, ten times. And make ten attempts at telling a certain joke, to show the Writer's Guild GPT-NeoX-20B has the chops. Thanks to: EleutherAI for making the GPT-NeoX-20B model that generates the text. NovelAI for making the text generation service I use for most of these episode, and the text-to-speech version 2 model that makes these episodes potentially entertaining. @BoneAmputee of EleutherAI for making VQGAN+CLIP and Diffusion image models available for use, which is what makes the background images. Katherine Crowson (@RiversHaveWings on Twitter) for the KLMC2 animation notebook that will be used on future episodes. Music by lofi geek on Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3dTH2FN Any voices from the text-to-speech model that might resemble persons living or dead are coincidental, which is my speculation, there's a multi-dimensional latent vocal space, there were many awesome finds, and if I use them it's because of my deep-seated respect for their work, and I think they'd get a hoot that their voice was being used to show how large language models, given the right environment, would speak 24/7 epic poems about anything if we let them.
