Cover reveal days are such fun, huge days for authors. But you know who they can also be huge for? The illustrators. Don’t forget to credit them. Cover reveals always blow up outside of an author’s bubble, and someone who sees it could be that artist’s next gig. ❤️

I'm sad to say that due to new EU laws I will, sadly, cancel all shipment of my prints Germany. I use a company that does shipping for me, and it got almost all countires covered well, except Germany. I'm so sorry. It will stay this way untill things are hopefully sorted out.

Apparently there's a bug on mobile where I can't get to my entire list of starter packs, so I had to rummage up this one on desktop. More cool creatives to follow... you know you wanna :D A lil bit of everything!

Remember when they were pinkie promising that they wouldn't train it on what was in docs? 🙄 (Re-sharing image with ALT text)

I cannot fathom how this happened. I am a solo game dev. Yesterday, a player on my Discord was asking the Google Search Al silly questions about my game, to laugh at some of the answers. But the answers sometimes contained surprisingly obscure info that should not be available for a small indie game like mine. Out of curiosity, I chimed in and asked the player to ask the Al about future contents in my game. Somehow, the Al spitted out the exact & highly specific character name "Vantage Tripod", which I had never mentioned to anyone. As far as I know, the only place where the info exists in a digital form is inside one of my own Google Docs, and this was NOT me speaking to the All (The player even asked the questions in incognito). My game is not big enough for there to be much noise out there to confuse Google's Al, so I guess that's why it managed to give actual, scarily real leaks on my game (without being confused by online speculations), and I have no idea how it knew all this. The screenshots only included snippets of the conversation. This is the full conversation on Discord, in case you want to get your own opinion on what happened (The entire conversation with the player lasted for an hour, where the Al gave other upcoming content info such as things I'd only ever mentioned on Discord). Edit: kallico from Discord has been sharing comparisons between her private GDD (never made into anything) and Google's responses when she asked for ideas based on her game title. Hers is a much more reproducible case where the responses matched her GDD to a concerning degree across multiple clean contexts, and did not feel like reasonable things an Al could have inferred from her prompt. When she tried the same questions with Claude (which shouldn't have access to Google Docs), the responses were far more reasonable and significantly less similar to the contents of her doc.

GOOGLE DOCS USES AI THAT TRAINS ON ANYTHING YOU WRITE IN IT, EVEN IF ITS A “PRIVATE” DOCUMENT. It’s now possible for users to get Google Docs’ AI to share information that is otherwise not publicly accessible, if it was written in Google Docs at some point. You CANNOT trust it w/ confidential info

Small wins. I noticed an AI ad for a company that I have been a customer of. I wrote them a short email explaining the environmental & social impacts of AI, and that if they choose to use AI instead of hiring an artist, that I would no longer be a customer. Got a decent response:

Screenshot of an email, the gist of which is that a company is pausing all AI marketing.
