I'm not particularly crazy about using AI in place of, say, hiring artists, but I would be more understanding of that kind of AI use over making digital people say stupid shit to make your point. It also seems to happen only on one end of the political spectrum. I wonder why*.

Why wouldn’t we just do this all the time?
Toronto has almost no faith in its switches or signals. This man is here all day managing this switch which they either didn’t fix, or can’t rely on…failure means nobody can get out of the FIFA exclusion zone.

I’m old-fashioned in the sense that I don’t believe the Premier of Ontario should be someone who looks around at people in distress on the subway car imagining all the ways he would punish them

bad faith actors pretending that 50% of all TTC trains have been turned into homeless shelters or something. I dunno man, I see people in distress on the TTC and my first instinct isn't that they should go fuck themselves. I'd much prefer government work to solve the issues at

their root, and not simply criminalize inconvenience or something that offends the eyes. Do we think shuffling "Undesirables" (keep in mind a lot of these people treat being too poor to afford a car as a similar level of dysfunction) is solving the problem? Obviously not.

I can't believe we're really getting "Trillionaire (singular I guess) funds social programs" takes from the same people saying we shouldn't have said social programs, very cool
