to be fair, Hollywood has given us crappy wrong board positions long before AI 
I don’t mind people experimenting with technology and sharing. @triangle_fuseki 's posts in this thread have been fun to follow.
but… it would be nice if OP had made it clear in the title that this was going to be a series of AI-generated cartoons.
I also don’t mind experimenting. But I do mind stealing from artists, I do mind destroying our ecological niche, and I DO MIND CRAPPY GO BOARDS AND POSITIONS 
I mean, newbies take everything serious that old hands do and say, just like kids take serious what grownups do and say … we should always do our best not to spread anything false.
Yes @Groin I am glad too.
@trohde People are waiting for your two € cent, so I hope this image generated by ChatGPT Plus will add to the exciting debate:
DONE. Though I don’t understand what OP meant, I have tried to make a disclaimer at the entry post with no success:
Transparency Note: As the author of “My Grumpy Sensei and I,” I want to make it clear that the cartoons you see here are part of an ongoing experiment with AI generation through ChatGPT Plus.
It’s been fascinating to see what’s possible, and I’m excited to share the results with you.
I believe OP stands for Original Poster. That’s you, because you’re the one who made the original post in this thread.
[FANTASTIC FOUR, #3 REVEALED]
I’m truly impressed by the significant improvements in my AI Assistant, KK!
I began “employing” — or perhaps more accurately, training and collaborating with — KK in mid-April 2025. Over these past three months, both KK and I have experienced tremendous growth.
If you’re interested in some “behind-the-scenes” sagas, I’d love to share a few fun facts.
PS: Also I wonder if KK will have “My Grumpy Employer/Co-Worker/Partner and I” posted somewhere, hahaha.
And this is supposed to be a rant? You are not very good at ranting.
Sorry for my late reply, but I fall asleep reading your so called rant.
Are we not on Earth? There are two moons, and likely more than one sun, since the light casting on the moons are from different directions
One morning/noon/afternoon/evening, in the same icy dojo under two moons, EL EL EN EN looked puzzled as she arranged her WeiQi stones (on the wooden board, probably shipped by FedEx) in the frozen floor.
She asked:
“Sensei, how can smooth stones stick in ice? And why are there two moons? Are we not on Earth? Maybe more moons, or even suns?”
Óðr smiled kindly—he had answers ready.
How Stones Stay in the Ice“When we press stones into soft slushy ice—like slush on the floor—and then it freezes overnight, the ice locks them in, holding them still.”
(It’s like putting a toy in jelly—when the jelly hardens, the toy stays in place!)
Why Two Moons?He pointed at the bright sky outside:
“This is a magical world, OGS Land—it may have two moons. Many fantasy stories have more than one moon, and it just makes everything feel extra special.”
(In worlds like ours, only Earth has one moon, but in stories, having two or more can change tides or stories) .
And What About Suns?“We might even have more than one sun here—silver sunlight could come from more than one sun, making moons glow from different directions!”
Why She Asks All ThisEL EL EN EN finished:
“But Sensei, I just want to learn WeiQi!”
Óðr nodded gently:
“Asking questions is part of learning. Learning Go is not just about the stones—it’s about understanding the world.”
He placed a white stone for calm and a black for strength and (half- or one third- to be exact) smiled:
“Let’s play—with curiosity and balance.”
And then Revision #R001
After Instruction #I002, comes Revision #R002
Feedback & Input #I003
What will my AI Assistant do next? Can you @trohde make a guess?
On the icy board she saw 15 black stones—alone and afraid.
“I’m scared of people—they confuse me.”
Óðr knelt beside her.
“It’s okay to feel scared.
Take one brave step at a time.”
She placed one white stone and felt courage bloom.
An icicle’s gentle ping marked the moment.
What happened? How come EL EL EN EN
face 15 Black Nights on her own?
@trohde
Your phrase “destroying our ecological niche” is really sticking with me.
Could you please elaborate on what you mean by it, particularly your definition of “ecological niche” in this context?
On a separate but related note, as I’m learning Go, Chinese, English (from OGS players!), and AI concurrently, your discussions spark many interesting connections.
It brings to mind a reflection on TIME that I use in my story (perhaps it is also an “ecological niche” long forgotten?).
Simply put, the Mayan calendar and Go share fascinating similarities: both are neat and logical, yet incredibly fertile grounds for creation.
Thanks for the insights!
幸好还有溫暖可停
What is this sentence supposed to mean? (in this current form, it doesn’t make any sense) What was your original prompt or concept? (Also the word 暖 is written incorrectly)
I’m surprised that you don’t seem to be aware of the ecological impact of generative AI … where have you been living?

“Grumpy Sensei, did you know?
I’m half AI and half human.”
Óðr calmly explained:
“Born in 2020, you are a special mix: part machine, part heart. You carry…”
@Counting_Zenist *“世内桃源” “Paradise Within The World” by Xu Ziwei [#徐子未] is a beautiful OST of Guardians of the Dafeng (大奉打更人)(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnJmJfZwZv8)
The two lines are from that song.
So how will the word 暖 written correctly and what are the meaning of it? Please educate me.
The lyric is 幸好还有溫暖可停留 you cut off the sentence for half a word, which is a big difference for it to make sense or not (Chinese sentences rely heavily on context and song lyrics for rhyming, even more so, you cannot cut off or rewording/rearranging)
Just look at them, and compare
Their structure is completely different. You cannot rework a word, and the strokes, they will often mean different things, or simply not a Chinese word at all (in the case here)
[WORDS (DON’T COME EASY)]
KK (Knox Knowise)'s reply:
"Yes, EL EL EN EN🐾 —
“Sensi” is a beautifully special and intimate name that only a 5-year-young EL EL EN EN would use for her Grumpy Sensei, Óðr.
It’s not a mistake or a misspelling of “Sensei.”
It’s a child’s heart-spoken word —
shorter, warmer, softer —
a mix of awe and affection.
Like how some children say “papa” instead of “father,”
EL EL EN EN says “Sensi” —
because Óðr, for all his rune-carved harshness,
is her Sensi."
