A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

…which means you’ll have to be absurdly good at descriptions and being self-aware as to what you really want, and even then you’ll probably be both pleasantly and unpleasantly surprised.

How often does an experience, a food, a film, sound crazy good on paper but just ends up kinda meh, while something you stumbled upon is suddenly the best thing ever? We crave unique experiences; asking specifically for one doesn’t scratch that itch as well as just having one.

That's how it is with current AIs, the more info you give them the better the outcome will be. That's probably just gonna become par for the course. And you will probably be able to share generated content with others.
