"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

You can google it but the summary is that she handles criticism pretty poorly. Also, her jokes are mostly not even a joke. Most of them are straw man clickbait.

handles criticism poorly

What a pearl-clutching take. Also known as:

After I attacked her, she reacted in a way that hurt my feelings

Maybe, just maybe, don't attack a comic?

Ah, a straw man argument. Now where have I seen this type of rhetoric? XD

I have never "attacked" or said anything to pizzacake, and she did react pretty poorly when other people did. If you don´t believe me, google it yourself.

That's... not a straw man argument. Here's a convenient definition to help you out.

My theory is that you wouldn't know how she reacts, whether poorly or otherwise, without her first being attacked.

Maybe, just maybe, people shouldn't attack the person just because they are snowflake about the content of their comic.

Except that it is? You literally added a quote of something neither I nor anyone else said ("After I attacked her, she reacted in a way that hurt my feelings") and then provided your own reply for it justifying her response. One her real reactions, btw, was portraying her "attackers" as rapists. You did not quote any "attacks" nor her response, but justified it nonetheless because people were "attacking" her.

Criticize != Attack

As a refresher, here's what a straw man argument is:

A straw man argument (or straw man fallacy) is a logical fallacy that occurs when someone distorts or exaggerates an opponent's actual position, and then refutes that fake, weaker version of the argument instead of the real one.

If you don't see how your reply fits that definition, I'm afraid I can't help you.
