@annaecook meanwhile, I'm sitting here complaining about the exact opposite, where I can't watch a video about a topic without the creator going on a 20 minutes tangent explaining in full detail what the context behind the thing is, how it came to be, and so on, down to the birth of the damn creator, before finally getting to the actual topic at hand.
... guess there is no pleasing anyone

@annaecook Sounds like they 100% approve of all you wrote to me. Those people always find something to gripe about - and very few of them put significant work into the world (or they'd understand writing trade offs and how you cannot make everyone happy).
Agree
with the main point: I think of AI delivering the "average of the corpus" which, considering how much sub-par stuff outnumbers quality work, must be mediocre at best.
