Every illustration in Pterosaurs: The Field Guide was painted by humans. Every word was written by Pete Buchholz. No generative AI, and none ever. If you've seen AI paleoart, you already know the difference. https://fossi.ls/ks

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful
DinoCon got me immediately excited to put Season 3 of these stickers into production. Also known as "Alright FINE I'll make that one for you now, FINALLY!"

I did a thread on paleontologists contributing to eugenics & fascism. What about the opposite end of political spectrum?🧵 Ernst Untermann (1864–1956) palaeontologist by trade, painted murals for the Dinosaur National Monument. A prolific socialist, first in US to translate Das Kapital into English.

Really important rallying cry for all of us in the palaeontology/palaeoart space. We have to be louder than ever in our opposition because the attacks are quite literally coming from ALL sides.
#PaleoAgainstAI Strangers from beyond the paleo circles, friends of old. We have gathered here to answer the threat of AIGC. Paleo-related creativity of all shapes and sizes now stands on the brink of destruction. None can escape it. WE WILL UNITE OR WE WILL FALL. threadreaderapp.com/thread/20817...
SUCH a lifelong dream to get to work on a new game set in the Myst universe. ♥️📖 Still hope we’ll get to see it through someday, but I’m thrilled we can share the trailer:
Over a year ago, we built a prototype for a new Myst Universe game meant for publisher eyes only. This project is NOT in active development, but we're proud of the work the team did, and wanted to share it with you all. Presenting: Project Anglerfish. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZvNGt02yZNc
