They don’t think we’re incompetent cats. They know we’re incompetent humans.

Congratulations! Seems like you’re well on course to getting your grandfathers license, but if I may offer some minor critique, you didn’t comment on how much I’ve grown and I believe taffy should be involved somewhere along the line. Other than that, excellent grandfathering!

Totally agree. I like this thread, I think I’ve found my people.

OMG thank you, I hate them and get so vilified for it. I might have deemed them mediocre had each one been at least half an hour shorter but as it is they’re just a Peter Jackson wankathon.

Full disclosure fwiw:

• I’m generally not into fantasy
• I (almost but not quite) equally hate action films / sequences
• More of a hard sci-fi fan, though I’ll generally enjoy anything harder than Star Wars (also hate)

TIL! Appreciate the somewhat scary education.

I was meaning in relation to the average turtle but I take your point and appreciate the info. What’s the book out of interest?

Yeah I’ve looked a bit harder and I see the spider shape a bit better now (from underneath), the slight motion blur in places would suggest not AI but I’m not totally convinced. From a quick search these spiders aren’t that big so that must be a very baby turtle, and I don’t know what’s going on around the mouth but it doesn’t look right, nor does the interference pattern of the ripples.

Agreeing with me would make a lot of people a lot more comfortable 😅

This is AI right?

Right?!

…it is though - the ripples make no sense, nor does the ant-spider in size or shape.
