Judith Allen @jaa-edit.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Modern parlance now has me pausing and mentally reviewing every time I use the word "myself", to check I've not misused it. Absorbing new linguistic traits quickly is a useful skill when e.g. moving to a new part of the world. It is less useful in this sort of scenario. 010

Judith Allen @jaa-edit.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Love* how Adobe keeps asking me what would make me more likely to recommend their products, and my answer is always "ease up on the AI evangelism"... but they never do. It's kind of a deal-breaker, guys. I use you for work because I have to. 110

![Q: A couple years ago at IDFA, I saw this movie "About a Hero," which is this partly Al-generated hybrid documentary that tries to recreate the atmosphere of your films.
A: The intention of this young filmmaker was never to remake any [of my films], but making something in the spirit. And I immediately said, "You will fail. It is such a stupid idea. It's phenomenally, abysmally stupid. I will not take part in it." He wanted me to explain things and have my voice in it.
I said, "You are alone. There's such a thing as free speech, which I respect. So go ahead and fail." And it is a failure, period.
It's so standardized that Al can step in because there's not real storytelling. It's mimicry of something that has happened before. And I welcome Al to replace all the idiots who are into nothing but repeating, repeating, repeating until it's ad nauseam.
When it's ad nauseam, please, please, please let Al step in and do the job.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:v5vphilwcf6nunioeyrpxw6g/bafkreibeadpx66jtqlttglhgbgkew6g65haxqngz5yt6p3ybwyi5zney54)
