thank you everyone for your patience! the way i organized the dragon eggs' data was to only count those with specific species listed, not just wider appearances or "dragon/human", as per the prompt. hope to see you all next year o(≧▽≦)o

my favorite handspun ever

for my curious spinners—this is an art bat with colorful silk scraps spun thin, plied with a slightly thick and thin blush pink single for the barber pole effect~

Alright, let's do this!

There seem to be more and more obviously-AI-generated cross-stitch patterns floating around Etsy nowadays; let's figure out just how many.

I've put together a sorting website that's pre-loaded with 2000 random Etsy patterns; 400 of them were actively listed or relisted this month, 400 are from three months ago, another 400 are from three months before that, etc etc, all the way back to a year ago. If we can identify which of them are AI-generated (or at least, obviously so), it'll be possible to get a rough estimate for what percentage of patterns are AI-produced, and for how that number has changed in recent months.

If you've got a decent eye for AI-generated pictures, I'd love to get your help sorting through them! And if not, watch this space for the results!

Also, if you see a pattern that's particularly interesting, or beautiful, or bizarre, there's also an option to flag those, just for the fun of it. :)

sorry to be a bit of a hater but i do wish youtubers weren't so scared of making their videos just like, "reviews", whys everything gotta be a "video essay" all the time. every day my recommendations are filled with 40 minute videos titled "_____: An Underrated Masterpiece" where the first like five minutes are reading the wikipedia definition of "masterpiece" in a somber voice with dramatic themed text on screen. please just tell me how good or bad you think something is and use the rest of the runtime to explain why. you dont need to put on all these airs

the logical knowledge that IQ tests are bullshit and don't give an accurate estimate of one's intelligence vs. the narcissistic desire to have the highest IQ score possible.
