Needless to say i’m talking about the oversimplified and misleading version of the Schrödinger’s cat paradigm, where he is both dead and alive until you watch it.
I don’t have a job but i follow theater courses at an academy. And my improvisation is both funny and awful until i show it to others.
As an animator, the client simultaneously knows everything about what makes a good animation, colour theory etc. and is utterly incapable of doing it themselves or providing any specific feedback beyond “I don’t like this” or “make it feel more pink but don’t actually make it pink.”
This state persists until you introduce an invoice for all the extra work it’ll take to redo all the stuff they agreed to two weeks ago, and then the waveform collapses and suddenly everything you sent them in the first place is fine.
I tried to get chatgpt to draw me a “coffee shop that feels pink without actually using the color pink”.
It failed (used the color pink):
Then I made the same request with the color green. It failed again, but I like this “non-green but actually green” coffee shop.
I also like the ridiculous position of those two chairs.
