This @openaibot.bsky.social data center will be less than 5 miles from my house. It’s immediately adjacent to 2 elementary schools. Requires the power output of 3 nuclear reactors. These projects have been stopped but no ever outlines exactly how! We need SPECIFICS #noai #datacenters #DataCenter

Once again, as far as I can tell, the primary functions of consumer-facing LLMs and generative "A.i." are cheating, disinfo, and fraud.
my husband sent me an Instagram reel and was like….is this AI? and upon searching: it is a plague of AI fake Natives across TikTok and IG selling various “handcrafted” items. moccasins. earrings. jackets. they all have the same AI website and all the stuff costs $79.99
I don't wanna hear a damn thing from "A.i." pushers about serving underserved communities, etc. Consumer-facing "A.i." is a scam tool for scammers, period.
"Nearly all aspects of the accounts appear to be AI-generated — from the “person” in the video to automated responses to comments, which in some cases attempt to mimic African American vernacular — and experts warn scams like this are growing every day."
Hey y'all, I'm gonna be doing a weekly newsletter where I'll be detailing things on the comics + art scene here on bluesky + across the atmosphere. I'll also include a weekly showcase for artists looking to get more exposure here. You can't nominate yourself, but if you have artists you think should
"For nearly 250 years, America promoted freedom and equality abroad"
For nearly 250 years, America promoted freedom and equality abroad, even when it failed to live up to those ideals itself—not anymore. @anneapplebaum.wsocial.eu argued in The Atlantic’s “Unfinished Revolution” issue last year.
This is not a goof, it's a real call to action. 🪣💦🧲
DESTROY THE ROBOT DOGS BURN THE DATA CENTERS

New on my website: one script page executed by three different artists ( @philhester.bsky.social, @seanizaakse.bsky.social, @billmasukuart.bsky.social). See the results here: www.ronmarz.com/post/three-p...
Three Pages
"What if," I said, "I wrote a page of script, and we gave it to three different artists, and see how they each approach drawing the page."

Please, stop taking advice from these systems. They just make stuff up. Sometimes it might seem to give you an answer to what you think you’re looking for, but it’s just a probable guess that’s sometimes right. If that doesn’t make sense, here’s a GREAT example… www.instagram.com/reel/DYyBoHg...
Tim Sweeney and Epic has so much to answer for. My intro into the whole gAI debacle was the artist protest of late 2022. Epic had bought ArtStation, SketchFab and other portfolio websites Artists, musicians etc. shared their work and cracked down on protests against theft of their work.
World's biggest art portfolio site embroiled in user protest against AI art
Human artists are angry about the flood of AI art being mixed with their own work.

Sounds like AI is a huge liability and billionaires are mega-crybaby about it as per. "established studios with a positive track record see a "catastrophic" 40% to 60% drop in sales when they use AI"
I've got so much documentation buried in my Bsky and past Twitter feed regarding the events that happened and the kind of back-alley methods and prompts of the AI-artists of yore technological iteration. They'd use "Artstation" as a tag when prompting MJ and SD for pretty and polished output.

Lmao “good thing bad for billionaires” is just every headline now
My PC doesn't run DD2. I'll probably play DD2DA in 2035 if PCs are still a thing and I don't die from WW3 or depression. That's all I can contribute to the hype rn. I'm fucking poor.
In general this is a really good summation of the situation and the damages that's done to artists and their community (amongst many others), the pitfalls of generative AI and how it's breaking fair use principles and harming human information sharing and creation. #NoAI
Brad Colbow explains his stance on generative AI.
I'm contributing to this book! You know the meme! Now see a buncha your faves writing/drawing about it! Kickstarter's close -- push it over the top, y'all!
First book ever of this nature? Yes. www.kickstarter.com/projects/gle...
"I'm gonna play the game still." There's the problem.
🧵 Ah, the company that stole their partners work and trained on it through a technicality clause written long before genAI came out and claimed it was ethical is now trying to make a law to protect "style". Well isn't that... yikes! 😬 See a thread below of Adobe's tracks record of "ethical AI".
Adobe is pitching a new law that aims to protect artistic styles. It may be meant for AI, but all I see are blurred lines. tedium.co/2026/06/06/a... new @tedium.co
