    I agree with you. I think the problem is localization. If all buttons are text they’re going to need translation and word length will vary. It’s doable, yes. But a series of icons takes up less space and should ideally communicate universally…it’s a little better if done right. If Photoshop was a bunch of words I’d be pissed off.



  • That’s a good argument. I get this. The problem that I see is that you aren’t very present in the art. The AI is 100% leading you with what it knows. AI is essentially helping you create a collage of all the styles and bits of image content on the Internet. How are we going to develope new styles? A human can use their imagination and skill to create something groundbreaking and pioneering (artists had to break ground and fill the world with this art for AI to be even able to do this). AI is just going to continue to remix remixes of remixes. It’s sad to me. That’s not really what art is about. I’m not saying AI art isn’t useful. It’s a remix machine.











  • Your are very ignorant of how professional work is conducted. Companies want to higher people that know how to do their job and have years of experience doing it. Some places do have entry level or junior positions where some training is expected. But in general, you will be hired for the skills you have (not because you have ‘potential’ and they would love to spend months teaching you).

    For welding and electric work, that is often learned through an apprenticeship, which aren’t easy to land either. That’s how a lot of trades work. But most jobs do not just offer apprenticeships or ‘free teaching’.

    Also, have you ever heard of Trade School?

    EDIT: If your argument was true I would just ask to be a brain surgeon and have the surgeons explain it to me.


  • That’s a large generalization. Computers were not present in early schooling for boomers. It’s important to take in account when leaps in technology occured for certain generations. Computers just get faster and smaller now. It will be a bit before we see another paradigm shift similar to what occurred in the mid 90s when home computing became a norm.

    With that said, I have heard of computer literacy dropping in youth despite ubibiquitous usage of social media on phones --which obviously doesn’t teach you much about how computers actually work. I’m not sure what exactly to contributes to that besides that maybe we are living in a post PC world (at least outside of working professionals in the tech industry). I work in game dev with a good amount of engineers under the age of 25 that could easily school me on low level computing architecture.

    It’s complex.

    To sum up my opinion, I don’t think age as a factor alone can be used to correlate computer literacy. We are products of our environment.
