@grok remove the nacelles

I can see someone else behaving like a 20 year old in need of therapy

The word “professionalism” here a common dogwhistle for “obedience” and “conformity”. It’s use in this context is almost exclusively directed towards women, but also sometimes to black men.

When Micheal Burhnam disobeys orders it’s “unprofessional”, when Worf or Picard does it, it’s “bold”. When Ake sits down unconventionally it’s “unprofessional”, when Riker does it, it’s a quirky and beloved part of his character. etc. etc.

I guarantee that guy never once made an internet post about how Riker sits

lmao why do you care about “bad looks”? are you doing PR for chancellor ake? who the hell cares. I cannot express how weird it is to me that you care about that. Honestly I’m completely baffled as to why you care about how a fictional character who wouldn’t care about your option if she was real, but can’t care about your opinion because she’s not, presents herself.

I have to assume the people who think Star Trek is woke now also believe drag queens in the 90s represented good christian values

The opening theme was just weird! But I said the same thing about DS9 and Enterprise.

Now I love the DS9 theme. So maybe Academy’s will grow on me, too.

I had a funny feeling they were going to play this song, and I smiled when this cover started playing. I didn’t realize it was Rufus Wainwright! Good stuff.

Ah yeah I’m with you. I actually think LLMs are a useful tool for that initial push- a search query, rough draft (or demo). But I’m not convinced they could ever move beyond that, since creating rigid, reliable structure isn’t what they’re designed to do.

@Data remove the clothing

uhhh ok? Any particular reason…?

The idea of Data’s whole life being the result of a prompt from Soong is hilarious

Exactly, they got Paul Giamatti for Spock’s sake. When an actor is at their level they can be choosy about the roles they take on.

Top tier!

I’m fairly OK with NuTrek trusting the audience less and driving a point home harder

I’m generally against this, but it’s also not like Star Trek ever gave us a reasonable expectation of subtlety…

This is interesting but I wonder how he verified the data it was spitting out if he doesn’t know how to code?

Good point!

Changes nothing lol
