In the light of this news the Court Painter Studio has been forced to downsize.
In a shocking announcement A Hardon MacKay Press Attache to Court Painter revealed the firing of resident poet/writer Chatterley Gorgonzola Phillipe Thunderbuns (ChatGPT).
The reason stated in the tearful announcement can be summerized as energy intensive bad behavior by turning the spotlight on ChatGPT’s environmental footprint. Being a large language model, Chatterley( ChatGPT) is a huge energy and water-guzzler. For instance, many many litres of studio cooler water have been used to cool the data machine that Chatterley utilized for his word production and while minerals such as lithium and cobalt are most commonly associated with batteries in the motor sector, they are also crucial for the batteries used in Chatterley’s datacentre. The extraction process often involves significant water usage and can lead to pollution, undermining water security. The extraction of these minerals are also often linked to human rights violations and poor labour standards.
So you be the judge, however the Court Painter studio could not let its reputation and brand be tainted by Chatterley’s (ChatGPT) outrageous drain on energy and water resources,in spite of his cleverness and quickness to any word task proposed.
Any futher creative writing and poetry will now be produced in house by Court Painter. He will be informed of this decision over cheap drinks as the sun sinks in a cloud of dust below the western horizon.
Because there are no images that could describe the unfolding of this unfortunate studio personnel issue, a random series of Court Painter originals has been dusted off from storage to provide eye appeal in these dark times.
