Google is presenting a new generative image model, with results claimed to be better than DALL·E 2 (of course it can spell)
Photorealistic Text-to-Image Diffusion Models with Deep Language Understanding

Just use the syntax that fits the shape of your brain. Arguing your preferred syntax is superior is like arguing you have the better brain shape than others.

Why do wordcels win head to head fights with shape rotators? Shape rotators spend 90% of their time rotating shapes and only 10% wordcelling; wordcels wordcel 24x7. Asymmetric warfare, outcome predetermined.

Zuck & Jack are the Gates & Jobs of this era. Truly great founders who built and ran organizations through multiple decades and tech transitions.
Now they're pivoting to web3 and Bitcoin respectively, while founderless web2 companies of similar vintage are not gonna make it.
Replying to @tonyapc42
Don’t underestimate Zuck’s ability to pivot to a web3 company. Harder pivots have been done. Nintendo began making playing cards.
