Timeless Trio Darcy DLC plush update! We have our first look at the sample. She’s already looking great! Helmet’s nearly perfect and the body just has a few errors to correct. The scythe is still in the works but I estimate she will be ready for pre orders in September. #darcywu

It’s finally time to announce: Timeless Trio DARCY DLC! Packed with show accurate details and a scythe accessory, Darcy’s joining the plush lineup later this summer! (Watch your back, Sasha ;) Stay tuned for updates! Darcy is only the beginning… #amphibia #darcywu

Anyway, the creator has seemingly decided to abandon the project. I don't wish them any ill will, I hope they are able to keep having a successful career, but not if their projects kill creative jobs by stealing from past work. Anyone planning to work with AI sees now how important communication is.

Creatives in Hollywood are terrified of AI, especially the animation community which has been hit EXTREMELY hard from post streaming wars contraction. That a creator who has championed animation so successfully in the past wouldn't have put more thought into navigating this moment is disappointing.

I hate sounding like a negative nancy but man, I just am not buying Jorge's sudden backpedal at all. He went from doubling down, to TRIPLING down and laughing about it, to suddenly saying he is "learning a lot from our comments about AI" despite preaching anti-AI statements himself for years. What??

AI could never create the most badass and unique characters like Darcy from Amphibia anyways All sillyness aside, he's exactly right. Support your real human artists in their projects! Like and share their art, buy from their comms or shops, keep promoting as much as possible, burst the AI bubble!

‘Amphibia’ creator Matt Braly speaks out against the use of AI in animation: “If you need to partner with AI to get a greenlight on your project, it ain’t worth it.”
