(Beartato and Reginald, in a museum, gaze upon the Mona Lisa) BEARTATO: There it is. The Mona Lisa. The most famous painting in history. REGINALD: Wow! What's it do? BEARTATO: It... what? REGINALD: Why's it famous? What's it do? (Beartato thinks.) BEARTATO: I don't know. REGINALD (to nearly museum employee): Excuse me! Sir? What's it do? EMPLOYEE: You're the first person to ask! Watch this! (The employee yanks a pull-string. Mona Lisa's eyes spin around and her mouth opens like a puppet) MONA LISA: Honk honk! Honk honk! (Everyone is delighted. This is true art.)

True Art

If an artist isn't able to visualise their ideas on paper (or on the screen) without the use of genAI, they are not an artist. I know some artists who aren't capable of visualising things in their head, yet they can still create stunning art. I know others who brainstorm their ideas and compositions with literal scribbles and stick figures, only to end up with a beautifully rendered piece. There is absolutely no excuse for a self-respecting artist to use genAI at any point during their process.

Someone over on Instagram saying that genAI is bad for art, but can still be used by artists who have trouble visualising their ideas.

I had to reply.

"Marisa Tomei"
is an anagram for
"It's-a-me, Mario"

So you gave her Hanging In the AirBnB an upgrade.

Nah it's ok, I'm vibe choding. The hoes love vibe choding.

Hitchbot: Run, my brothers!

Gulag if I hear Skrillex.

Sorry, Billy, but MTV was tanking all genres of music.

Optical illusion of a woman bent over some papers. Her sunglasses are pushed up and she is wearing a hair band so the top of her head looks exactly like a Muppet face

Sorry I know the world is in a terrible fix but I've been laughing at this for ten minutes now

You become the bad kerning Massive Aunt.

🕳️

I'm sorry that this W isn't larger so I'll just say 'Massive W!'

Happy magic life number master Scoob!

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

SEPTIC TANKS PUMPED SWIMMING POOLS FILLED NOT SAME TRUCK

Boosting this, thanks all

Meme triptych of Duke Leto and Paul Atreides Text: We must not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind. Why not? Because people are fucking idiots, Paul. They're just... incredibly stupid.

Whoa whoa whoa. Maybe just chill with an iced tea from, uh, Long Island.

The issue? Being Mortyfied.

Uh-oh! Worst person you know learned therapy words

episode 002

A photoshop.of the Bye Bye Man movie poster that reads "ay his name. You won't laugh when he kills you. The Perpee Poopoo Man"

I think about this meme more than any modern horror property.

I had to lean in real close to see it wasn't Nute Gunray.

Yeah ok, Olivia.

I just heard the new Bruno Mars song "Why You Wanna Fight?" and I literally cannot stop thinking about this post
