Have given up on this “let’s find a moderate perspective on ‘AI’ and stop yelling” essay about a dozen times, then restarted it about a dozen times when I read something that got under my skin, and now it’s just 7,000 words of me pointing out that everyone other than me is wrong without a conclusion, so I guess I’m going to work on my baguette shaping technique some more.

For now, I need to work on developing more stretch without knocking it down too much. Next time I might roll them out. Or maybe I’m too worried about knocking it down.

@vruba is that yeast just selecting gluten chains based on statistical patterns, or does it really know what a baguette is?

@hans It’s an important and well-defined question that I suggest we argue about for as long as possible.

@vruba we don’t need to do that anymore now that we have content generators.
