"A visual-arts professor at a community college in Texas said sheβs frustrated β and insulted β that her students have used AI to produce both writing and art assignments. In some cases theyβve left the names of the AI they used in their file names or watermarks." free link: archive.ph/EGnvS Wow.

Prof. Nicole Holliday@mixedlinguist.bsky.social Β· 4h agoThis is the part that breaks my heart.

Saw a post saying "I don't want NSFW accounts to talk about voting, just let me jack off" Buddy, NSFW artists and sex workers are being constantly attacked by a government of nonces trying to distract from their own crimes by pinning the blame on porn. They have the right to speak up about this.

Anyone else have art they've drawn that makes them go "if people outside of me knew the full context of the piece they'd think VERY differently about it"? like, there's a piece I have of Midori that I like how it turned out BUT I'm more hesitant to post it about because I know the full context.
a reason that Stevens lost and other AIPAC candidates are losing despite the huge infusions of money is that Dem voters don't want to vote for a candidate who is funded by the same org who will immediately turn around and fund the Republicans

No more Sims games for us. No more EA games either, for that matter. Some words on why.
Hey remember when Nanowrimo said "sure why not" to allowing AI slop in their process and then immediately died after 20 years of operation oh, no reason, was just thinkin' about it
This from the guy who has to hire people to play his video games for him.
