Literally my life would get easier, because the energy I have to put in to AVOID genAI tools is actually disruptive. This sounds like paradise.
I have one answer.
Daaaamn. “AI is the asbestos we're shovelling into the walls of our technological society. Our descendants will spend generations digging it out again, and the longer the bubble goes on without popping, the longer it will take to repair the damage." www.thenerve.news/p/cory-docto...
Cory Doctorow: The people who tell you ‘AI is changing everything’ are lying
It has become impossible to tell managers mesmerised by artificial intelligence that the tools are not, in fact, helpful. So employees just play along with the fiction to keep their jobs, writes our t...

AI is robbing you of the opportunity to make this instead
The next time you consider making a flier with AI, please also consider that the most intriguing ad I’ve seen this week is a garage sale sign made of particle board with spray painted writing that reads, “GOOD SHIT —>”
Tell Twitch to leave out AI at this link! Its seriously just a button click as long as ur signed into Twitch! twitch.uservoice.com/forums/92338...
Twitch and Amazon are apparently planning to use streams to train Generative AI. Multiple sources tell me it will be announced in the coming months, despite some internal friction against it. Creators may be able to opt out of some training data.
speaking of... the ONLY collaboration/business requests i've gotten are people doing weird TCG scam shit and im actually really peeved about it. This WHOLE PROJECT is NOT!!! about making things more exclusive, or expensive!! The fucking opposite!! I want it to be AS AFFORDABLE as possible.
Hey, instead of throwing 96 bucks at midj0urney & getting only slop, ugly ass D&D portraits out of it… I offer you 350+ handcrafted designs for just $1! There's also a $5 tier with cute little variants now, thanks to us consistently hitting 500+ Patrons!!! patreon.com/Myrmidia 🤍👉👈
Last workshop with Spencer Wan, and he dropped some good life advice: "we are mortal, and our flesh is weak. If you as an animator just sit at your desk and work all day, you will wither and die."
Reminder that I'm Canadian! I try to boost stateside stuff often because a lot of my followers are American, but I can only call my reps in Canada! /PSA
Hello I have made this due to a mutual having issues with some folks on here forgetting this fact and shouting at him for it. Feel free to use it as a handy PSA x
Hi gamers! I'm moving soon, so I won't be able to work for a little while and I could honestly use a hand with some funds during this period. If you can spare somethin', I'd be really grateful. ko-fi.com/topspinthefu...

Alright, it was suggested to me that I actually crowdfund the out of pocket cost for the lumbar MRI since my insurance keeps denying the day before the appt even w/ it as an important order. I will have more info in the replies as well. I was honestly hesitant but... ko-fi.com/portaltohades

VP of Elbit Systems, genocidal Israel’s largest arms company, blatantly admits his company identified 850,000 “targets” in Gaza and Lebanon Let that sink in.
The data center mania happening at a time when climate change is already such a serious and obvious problem feels like a taunt. You are pissing me off on purpose
"By the end of 2030," reports NYT, the amount of energy used by data centers"is expected to quadruple, eclipsing the power used by all countries in South America and Africa combined." This is extinctionism.

i hate how much people care about their ships being "canon" now. spirk fans didn't publish zines full of fanfics in the 70s only for modern fandom to grovel at the knees of corporations and beg for things to be canon. use your imaginations, don't allow billionaires to think for you.
saw this post years ago and will never ever forget it. sometimes you need to tend to the place from which you create, before you can create again
People really do not appreciate the importance of the "do nothing" phase in the creative process. We are all about the kinetic energy, and forget its duality with potential energy.
This concept was introduced to me as "run the dishwasher twice" and was an important part of my executive functioning recovery as well as my path to self-acceptance.
mucho texto i know but i wanted to write a lil thing about how u can treat yourself nice!!
👇 In reference to that SDCC Avatar Aang slide everyone is talking about. It was a page from an artbook, and the reference to Chat GPT was likely injected by the person who put the book together. Actual artists like Kat who worked on the film have no idea why it says that.
I have no clue why it was on that slide or who put it there, and every member of the crew I worked with is 100% against AI. Every aspect of the animation is handcrafted by real artists and I hope that people don’t use this slide as a reason to detract from how much love and labor went into the film.
Hello, may I very very humbly request someone infact buy a single kofi [$3] to read my comic so that I can purchase an actual decaf coffee + cake pop at a lovely place mom and i found yesterday? I literally only need the exact amount a single kofi would yield me. ☕️ thank you very much for your time
Page 42 is up for #tyreecomic over on patreon & kofi! Lettering by @rayday.bsky.social ! Thanks for your continued patience as always! 💚 My health sadly has drastically worsened but that's why buffers exist! 💬🐍 ko-fi.com/portaltohade... www.patreon.com/hadescomics/...
The last time I researched this, I discovered the timeline "sport is open to all; woman wins; sport is immediately closed off to women; women's league is eventually formed years later" is almost universal. Women's leagues were overwhelmingly created *strictly* to protect the egos of men.
the whole "women's sports exist to protect women from men" framing is hilarious, given that a lot of these divisions were initially formed because men were deeply embarrassed any time a woman beat them at a sport olympic shooting was mixed gender right up until a woman won the gold
