One of my New Year’s resolutions is to read your snarky poetry, once you share it.
Awesome!
I am very much worried about 2025.
And I’m very annoyed. I still can’t believe that people chose the candidate that is supported by a South African.
I pronounce “mauve” as “mawv.” I have no idea if that’s the standard pronunciation, but the vowel sounds like “awe,” not “ah” or “oh.”
.Yes, that’s how I say it too.
Ditto. (Like “Maude” but with a v?)
I do, too, but decided that was close enough to “ah” .
Ditto.
I don’t use ChatGPT, but I use whatever the Microsoft AI version is, I can’t remember the name of it. It’s pretty useful for coding.
I sometimes screw around with ai, but when i do, I’ve been using the Google one. I haven’t done anything useful with it, though.
I pronounce “mauve” with the CAUGHT vowel, so I said “some other way”. I was surprised it wasn’t an option, but perhaps the poll writer has the COT-CAUGHT merger, so doesn’t distinguish between them.
My pronunciation depends on who I’m talking to and why I am mentioning mauve, as this is not a color I mention very often.
My default English merges COT/CAUGHT, but I talk to a lot of non-native English speakers. I tend to enunciate more when when talking to non-native English speakers compared to talking with my childhood friends.
I don’t use ChatGPT but I use the Google version, Gemini. It’s useful for generating short pieces of Python code that I use in my work.
“Muave” had a diphthong vowel. I pronounce it something like “ooh-awe”.
If so, you’re pronouncing the vowels in the wrong order: it’s not “muave,” it’s “mauve.”
I blame my dyslexia
What is this mauve thing?
It’s an old Norman Lear sitcom.
And then there’s mauve!
I have a ChatGPT subscription, though I haven’t used it in a year, and I should probably cancel it.
I also have a subscription to Midjourney (an image generation AI tool), which I use frequently, primarily to create portraits and pictures for use in role-playing games.
