The Sheer Advantage Xeno Had When Both Senku And Him Woke Up Will Always Astonish Me. I Can Practically

I like ur “living with dr stone characters” and for stano it’s being adopted 😂 So I like to request what would it be like to be adopted by them. Frankly I think it’s both terrifying and hilarious 🤣

stanxeno adoptive parents hcs!

what to expect: BLATANT stanxeno, mix between modern au and canon

your sword's note: thankyu so much for the request dear anon! hope you enjoy this madhouse, more on my mistresslist

after a very discrete wedding, these two decide to adopt a child. you happen to be the (un)lucky one (?)

they didn't want a baby, they wanted someone very particular, so they both made a list and went to the adoption center checking off kids that didn't meet their standards, oops sorry!

they were interviewing the kids as if they were applying for a government job. "do you have any association with the cancelation of project helium-3?" xeno stares at a 5 year old

when its time for you to go to the interviewing room, you sit on the chair and look at them, "what do you have to offer for me?" it is you asking, that sets them off, but they notice immediately that you match their bizarre energy. you are 3 years old and so daring that immediately they feel a connection

i head canon them as girl dads, omgggg these two would spoil their daughter rotten, you want something? you got it. some little turd pushed you in the playground? his parents mysteriously got fired and his lunchbox exploded. you are their little princess and whoever may dare to even look at you wrong shall have a taste of their wrath

stanley teaches you how to defend yourself from day one and xeno is explaining to you how to build missiles as bedtime stories

all their friends and coworkers know you, they both talk everyone's ear off about you

surprisingly loving (yeah i hate them but whateva)

if you pick up an interest they will listen to everything you have to say and learn it all about it

they take you everywhere. "why is xeno's kid on nasa's top secret document archive coloring on a random folder!?" some guy yells but xeno picks you up and looks at them deathly. for more logical reasons stanley won't be taking you to his job but he makes sure to tell you all about it

your room is decorated amazingly, and precisely you are allowed to have a fish, they say you are not responsible enough to have a bigger pet, the fish's name is brody, like THE brody, he doesn't mind

that house is a madhouse, but you fit perfectly there

you are taught how to do chores and be organized because otherwise xeno will become a little more evil

omg this guys will be so annoying. "my kid just learned how to read" some person says. "well my kid already knows how to solve linear equations AND knows the My Little Pony lore." they brag so much that they are loathsome to people

if petrification happened:

you were still a kid when the petrification happened, younger than suika. you were playing in the area where they got petrified because they will NOT be leaving you with some untrusty nanny

xeno gets depetrified and he immediately looks for you, makes you some clothes and puts you in the safest place possible. since these mfs focused on making guns instead of figuring out how to depetrify people, you stay a statue for a good while

gen asks "what is a young kid's statue doing here?" xeno grabs him by the neck and gives him the dad death look™, and soon the barrel of stanley's gun is facing the innocent mentalist

you either love senku or hate his guts, wym your daddy was proud of this guy first (by that time you weren't even born)

suika sees you as the cutest thing ever and you kinda remind her of herself before

you are jokingly named "the one who might become a superpower", trained by the evil duo, everyone expects you to match and even surpass your dads. you will. they know it. they are happy about it

MANGA SPOILERS FOR THIS ONE: after the american colony joins the kingdom of science, you get depetrified and they are so glad, the k.o.s is surprised to see this new side of them

i gotta find a good alternative to making im gonna kill myself jokes. unfortunately im finding very little that packs as much emotional punch that also doesnt sound super annoying

i used to hear Deku when i saw Ginrō but now i hear Ginrō when i see Deku

I've finally figured out an argument that convinces coding tech-bros that AI art is bad.

Got into a discussion today (actually a discussion, we were both very reasonable and calm even through I felt like committing violence) with a tech-bro-coded lady who claimed that people use AI in coding all the time so she didn't see why it mattered if people used AI in art.

Obviously I repressed the surge of violence because that would accomplish nothing. Plus, this lady is very articulate, the type who makes claims and you sit there thinking no that's wrong it must be but she said it so well you're kind of just waffling going but, no, wait-- so I knew I had to get this right if I was gonna come out of this unscathed.

The usual arguments about it being about the soul of it and creation fell flat, in fact she was adamant that anyone who believed that was in fact looking down at coding as an art form as she insisted it is. Which, sure, you can totally express yourself through coding. There's a lot more nuance as to the differences but clearly I was not going to win this one.

The other people I was with (literally 8 people anti-ai against her, but you can't change the mind of someone who doesn't want to listen and she just kept accusing us of devaluing coding as an art) took over for I kid you not 15 minutes while I tried desperately to come up with a clear and articulate way to explain the difference to her. They tried so many reasonable arguments, coding being for a function ("what, art doesn't serve a function?") coding being many discrete building blocks that you put together differently, and the AI simply provides the blocks and you put it together yourself ("isn't that what prompt building is") that it's bad for the environment ("but not if it's used for capitalism, hm?" "Yeah literally that's how capitalism works it doesn't care about the environment" she didn't like that response)

But I finally got it.

And the answer is: It's not about what you do, it's about what you claim to be.

Imagine that someone asks an AI to write a code and, by some miracle, it works perfectly without them having to tweak it---which is great because they couldn't tell you what a single solitary thing in that code means.

Now imagine this person, with their code that they don't know how it works, goes and applies to be a coder somewhere, presenting this AI code as proof that they're qualified.

Should they be hired?

She was horrified, of course. Of course they shouldn't be. They're not qualified. They can't actually code, and even if by some miracle they did have an AI successfully write a flawless code for every issue they came across that wouldn't be their code, you could hire any shmuck on the street to do that, no reason to pay someone like they're creating something.

When actual engineers use AI what they do is get some kind of base, which they then go though and check for problems and then if they find any they fix them, and add on to the base code with their own knowledge instead of just trying different prompt after prompt until they randomly come across one that works.

People who generate code like this don't usually call themselves engineers. They're people who needed a bit of code and didn't have the knowledge to generate it, and so used a resource.

And there you go. There are people who have none of the skills of artists, they don't practice, they don't create for themselves. When they feed the prompt to the AI they then don't just use the resulting image as a reference point for their own personal masterpiece, and if they don't like it they don't have the skills to change it---they simply try another prompt, and do that until they get something they like.

These people are calling themselves artists.

Not only that, these people are bringing the AI generated thing to interviews, and they are getting hired, leaving people who slave over their craft out of the job.

And that is the difference, for the tech bros who think AI art isn't a big deal.

HI!!! ITS PARIS!!! CAN I CALL YOU DEFFY? HERES A CHOCOLATE!!! *bounces and smiles and gives u a 🍫
