A Critical Dragon | Mallick Rel the Merciful: Defending the Indefensible? @ACriticalDragon | Uploaded April 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Mallick Rel the Merciful
For safety's sake, basically SPOILERS ALL for Malazan work by Steven Erikson and Ian C. Esslemont.
Kallor might have some detractors, but everyone hates Mallick Rel... Right?
This is a brief discussion of some of the aspects of Mallick Rel that I think complicate the picture a little, and place him in contrast to Kellavend and Laseen.
The image of Mallick Rel is from:

They have a website of great fantasy imagery and Malazan inspired art: deviantart.com/corporal--nobbs

![Is Chat GPT a good editor [should I be worried]? Will AI editors replace people like me?](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/QktobgHRu9A/hqdefault.jpg "Is Chat GPT a good editor [should I be worried]? Will AI editors replace people like me?
A lot is being said about Chat GPT replacing authors, but from the various outputs I have seen I am really not convinced that it will any time in the near future. However, could AI replace editors?
These Large Language Models and AI assistants already auto-correct, flag grammar and spelling errors, and suggest new phrasings, so can they replace editors?
In this video I took three very short samples from some authors work and asked Chat GPT Can you edit the following passage?.
Here are the results.
I am not really concerned if the AI is good at editing, what I am interested in is what it is doing, how it approaches it, and if it can be a useful tool for creative writing. Is it really a timesaving device? Will it actually replace human authors and editors, or do we still need humans intimately involved in the process?
As a point of clarity, I didnt tell the programme if it had done a good job or a bad job as I dont wish to help train something that various industries are seeing as a way to cut human artists, authors, and skilled professionals out of the workplace. But I was surprised at what it did.
