That was my take too. Their overall point wasn’t bad but the start was a complete non sequitur that made me question if I wanted to finish because it’s a bad foundation for their actual argument. 

Is this what Roman Nagel had to rig up to save Livingston’s butt?

That’s why I’m still running A/UX.

So basically if I understand correctly, AI porn of: Emma Watson - Bad Hermione Granger - A-OK

Seems potentially problematic.

It uses OpenLibrary and Inventaire as it’s sourced apparently. I don’t know if it contributes upstream though.

I just wish it had a Calibre plugin, I tend to forget to update services like these and rely on syncing with calibre to do it for me.

As soon as it’s released, I’ll be on the public beta and am happy to help test if you’d be interested.

I remember reading Amber it was was a great series that unfortunately didn’t age as well as others from the same era.

Which series? My guess is Riftwar based on that description, but I’m curious if you’re open to sharing.
