Master of puppets, I'm pulling your strings... One of Grimalditeuthis bonplandi's tentacle clubs is like a little squid hand puppet. They will flap it around, and would-be predators will think they are getting a tasty squid snack, when they really are going to be a snack for a squid. #SQUIDtember

A Grimalditeuthis bonplandi swimming in ocean without its tentacle extended. The squid is translucent with orange tinge, and is covered in yellow chromatophores. It has two sets of fins which are both flapping. The upper fins have more chromatophores. You can see some of its organs due to its translucent flesh.A Grimalditeuthis bonplandi floating in the ocean with its "squid puppet" tentacle extended.

It is slightly translucent, and is a slightly purple colour with its mantle being more white. There is a red line on its head going across and through its eye.

I decided I'm going to start a thread of things I love to add to now and then, just because. Music, art, games, whatever. First up: the viscacha, a rodent native to South America. They like to sit on rocks and warm themselves in the sun, which I can greatly emphasise with

A viscacha, which kind of looks like a spherical rabbit with brown and grey fur, sits on a rock and looks very chill.

AP Stylebook warns against anthropomorphizing AI systems: “Avoid language that gives them human characteristics… Instead, explain what a system does, how well it performs, who built it and who could be affected by it.”

APStylebook @APStylebook X.com Artificial intelligence systems do not think, feel, want or understand. Avoid language that gives them human characteristics. This is called anthropomorphizing, when we ascribe human traits, emotions or behaviors to non-human things, such as animals or inanimate objects. Instead, explain what a system does, how well it performs, who built it and who could be affected by it.

I saw a post earlier saying I need to integrate AI into my workflow as an artist or I'll be left behind. Sure I've seen dozens of posts like this before, but I'm really seriously thinking about it now and I am at a total loss as to what it would possibly do to improve my work.
