Somehow Bill Watterson published this Calvin and Hobbes comic strip about generative AI 40 years ago.
#genAI #CalvinAndHobbes

Panel 1
Hobbes: "What's this?"
Calvin: "A generic snowman."

Panel 2
Calvin: "I used to make original snowmen, but it was time-consuming, hard work, so I said, heck, this is crazy!"

Panel 3
Calvin: "Now I crank out crude imitations of what's already popular! It takes no time or thought, and most people don't care about the difference anyway!"

Panel 4
Hobbes: "So cynical, yet so practical."
Calvin: "And what good is originality if you can't crank it out?"
