Quillbot vs. WordAI: A Comparison of Article Rewriting Tools - DiggiNet

Today Panzer made a trip to the DiggiNet site. There with some digging in the posts he found one about two AI article rewriting tools.

 

You should admit you didn't write it.

In her post Anita Nipane compares the features of Quillbot and WordAI. Both have you paste your article(s) into  the input box, but from there they go in different directions. Quillbot is for smaller jobs and will change sentences and phrases, check grammar and check for plagiarism, and several other features, but not all are available in the free version. WordAI is for larger jobs and will accept bulk article uploads, change sentences and paragraphs, and make the articles "more human," but there is no free version. Basically, you need to decide how much of your original article you want to retain and how much you want the AI to rewrite it. The post is an in depth look at both AI tools and includes instructions for using both.

 

Panzer says, "Interesting."

 

Note: This is a long post. Bring a thermos of cocoa, a muffin, a brownie, and two chocolate chip cookies (biscuits) for today's reading.

At Hearing, Judge Appears Skeptical of Internet Archive's ... - Publishers Weekly

Today's trip into the Catosphere took Panzer to the Publishers Weekly site. There with hardly any digging at all he found a post about the copyright infringement court case against the Internet Archive.

 

 

Whoever loses will appeal.

According to the post by Andrew Albanese, through the questions asked by the judge overseeing the case, he doesn't accept the Internet Archive's (IA) defense as credible. IA's attorneys are basing the defense on the fact IA calls itself a library and as such it can scan and make digital copies of any book it "owns." IA then allows readers worldwide to "borrow" and read those copies. Since neither authors nor publishers are paid for the books and they're copied without permission, the publishers and authors' court case accuses IA of copyright infringement. There's a link at the end of the post to previous posts about the court case.

 

Panzer says, "How can you take people's  stuff and use it without their permission and then say that's okay?"

Note: This is a long post. Bring a cup of cocoa and a muffin for today's reading selection.

Update from CEO Andy Jassy on Amazon's operating plan and additional role eliminations - Company News

 Today, Panzer made a trip to Amazon's news release site. There our intrepid kitty traveler found a post by Amazon CEO Andy Jassy.

According to the post, Amazon will be doing 9,000 role eliminations in April. This is in addition to the 18,000 role eliminations announced in January. Amazon is striving to become a leaner company in these uncertain economic times.

It's not a role playing game. They're people.

Panzer says, "This little kitty wants to know why you say role eliminations. Just say you're laying off another 9,000 employees in addition to the 18,000 employees you laid off in January."

Note: This is a short post. Bring a cup of tea for today's reading selection.

A Monday Panzerism

 Panzer on Spring Love:

It's Spring time. When a boy kitty's thoughts turn to girl kitties.

There I was last night, sitting on the back fence ...

Singing that I was looking for love.

Then I saw her ...

an answer to my kitty serenade.

The most beautiful girl kitty ...

Long shiny gorgeous calico fur ...

unbelievably cute ears.

I asked her for a date.

She looked at me with those golden eyes ...

then shook her head.

I asked for her phone number so I could call her.

She'll be back. Girls can't resist me.

She gave it to me with no hesitation.

But ...

when I called it today, some guy answered and said, "Animal Control Service, Cat Neutering Division."

Darn claws. I must have dialed wrong.
