I come to you concerned.

This latest crypto craze has taken the form of desperately attempting to automate art, so that the wealthy have access to art without cost, and the poor have no access to doing art at all. One of our most valuable artistic roles is that of trans shitposter, most archetypically trans girl shitposter, though in my experience this applies far more broadly.

Soon, automation will come for this job as well, and we will not know for sure when it has happened. The quality of trans shitposting will sharply decline on average, real shitposters will be shut out by the sheer volume of low-quality shitposting, and we will be left with few if any trans shitposters at all. This is a serious concern, but the greater concern is bias automation: ChatGPT and similar "AI" systems are notorious bias amplifiers, known to be more racist than the average of what they replace. We must get ahead of this. We must create our own LLM shitposters, trained on data of our choice, to get ahead of and steer this inevitable shift. We must train our shitposters on data that makes them better than we are, not worse; that leans into the stereotypes we admire, not the ones ascribed to us; and, of course, to avoid the amplification of racism one sees in ChatGPT and other modern unethical systems marketed as "AI."

Together, we can make the automated trans shitposter we deserve.
