A picture that reads: "THE SEARCH FOR ????. Interact with this post to help search for a missing resident of The Realm Of Insani-tea! Reward is found!" Besides the text is a silhouette covered by milestones. 20 likes, 50 likes, 100 likes and 200 likes. It looks a lot like a VTuber reveal post.

generative AI has become widely available in the summer of 2022 and entered mainstream in 2023
people are working themselves up in a frenzy, convinced they're utterly helpless without software younger than still-fresh canned tuna. we have been making art for at least 50,000 years, get a grip
Reminder for artists: don't get blinded by the "big number" for an art project. Remember to do the math.
$3,000 for a tarot card desk *sounds* great. But in reality you're only being paid $38.46 per artwork. And if each artwork takes 20 hours to make, you're getting paid $1.92/hr

I love all gendersπ³οΈββ§οΈπ³οΈβπ
Because I have no gender.
Especially right now, transgender people are living with a lot of anxiety.
Why are transgender people not allowed to freely love the people they want to love?
Why can't transgender individuals live their lives with the soul they prefer?
Christopher Nolan should have cast Helen of Troy the way the Greeks would have: by casting the most attractive young man in the company and giving him a really fuckable porcelain mask.
Having a WOMAN play Helen of Troy??? Talk about inaccurate. The Greeks would fucking riot.
Every ICE agent should be hunted to their dying breath and brought to justice.
Yep and with that I have deleted my Pinterest, fuck that bullshit
Linkedin Post from a Pinterest designer reading: "Yesterday I was impacted by the Pinterest layoffs. I was Pinterest's only icon designer and product illustrator. In his email to the company, the CEO said "weβre doubling down on an AI-forward approach β prioritizing AI-focused roles, teams, and ways of working". I WAS working on AI projects including the Pinterest Assistant that soft-launched in October. If you haven't heard about that feature launch, you can find it on Pinterest's own newsroom or with a Google search. I was vocal internally about how our users don't want AI slop or features on the platform, how we as employees are feeling uncomfortable and discouraged about AI, and what I wanted from leadership. Last year, I told my manager I was worried about AI-based layoffs. I was told not to worry. At an onsite, we were told that "in the future", we would all be "managers of AIs". That I would be expected to manage some sort of AI employees, rather than craft and design my own work. Human-made art and design matter. I am never going to stop creating, even if the "home of inspiration" decides that creators are secondary to profits. If you want to support me, you can follow me on threads or instagram @bonniekatewolf where I post my hand-knit sweaters and oil paintings. If you want to hire a human illustrator, designer, or iconographer, my email and DMs are open for freelance, contract, or FTE roles."

So it's time for me to move to another platform to save images
chat, is this* bad ?

Apparently the AI bros are on another round of "Hatsune Miku is AI, checkmate luddites" so this is just a reminder that the singer behind Miku was paid and still earns royalties, and beyond that, Miku is nothing more than a MIDI soundboard with advanced pitch converter options, it is not genAI.
Look at this absolute queen

Flora dresses as Vash from Trigun, showing a peace sign to the camera with her other hand holding a revolver up against their shoulder while standing against a metal railing with sparks flying behind her.
Flora now leaning against the railing with one arm, revolver at her side in the other, with a jet of fire rising up from furnace machinery in the background
Fauna stood slightly turned away from the camera, robotic looking arm in front and the other arm holding a revolver against her shoulder
Flora painting the revolver towards the camera, holding it with both hands, while sparks fly up behind her again
So, what're people feeling about Trigun: Stargaze? Should I give it a go? ππ

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best. It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.
itβs come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so Iβm posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI
IM SO ANGRY!!!

As if artists don't have enough to deal with, Amazon has a "Buy For Me" program in beta which is scraping indie shops for their items and putting them up on Amazon (often incorrectly), for their "AI agent" to buy from the other site. It is NOT opt in, and there is no opt out.
Noah cosplaying Griffith from Berserk, half length portrait within a shaded, ivy covered, alcove in a ruin. Noah is holding up the Crimson Beherit pendant to their eye
Full length of Noah stood in the alcove, looking up to the sky with a hand on their hip and the other holding the hilt of a sword, point down in the earth
