The California state legislature and that asshole Gavin Newsom signed assembly bill 1043 which was a bill written by Big Tech with zero protection for people and their privacy.

Same thing happened in the UK because of "brexit" just before it became official. Lots of London companies moved to Dublin.

The wide release of the update will become available soon. I’ve finished all the picture updates and working on the code, new trailers, and a new demo. The game has changed quite a bit since the 1.5 update, and I’m looking forward to showing it to you. #visualnovel

2025: Where AI Went Wrong Time magazine announced β€œThe Architects of AI” as the person of the year. I had to laugh. Yes, these tech bro fools were one of the most influential in making headlines this past year. …

Been thinking about what has become my annual AI blog post. I think it turned out OK. Thank Oolon Colluphid for the headline idea.

From Date Ariane 2. Eating at the Drive-N-Dine. Making a new version was a bit of building new sets for Daz Studio and converting old sets for Daz. The Daz rendered images look a lot better.

The First β€œAI” Visual Novel shows the flaws in the concept Being in the Visual Novel development community, quite a few have wondered if it would be possible to integrate AI into a visual novel game. Instead of choices to choose from, an AI engine would be…

"Whispers From The Star" is from what I can tell the first AI driven Visual Novel. Not written or illustrated by AI, but the main character is literally an AI chatbot. I watched several people play the game, here's my impression.

Three different images made with Stable Diffusion using "pretty woman" in the prompt, and has been dubbed β€œdefault generic AI face” girl. The recently announced "AI Actress" Tilly Norwood, is obviously a variant of this.

Want the real truth about "Tilly Norwood"? She's just a variant of β€œdefault generic AI face” girl that come up whenever you prompt "Pretty woman" into Stable Diffusion.
Here's some AI generated realistic images, and three in other styles with exactly the same face.

We already tried vaccines and Tylenol, and children still turn out neurotypical. Give us something that Works!

Autists, like myself, are sensitive to many things. Most of us are empathetic and anti-authoritarian and won't obey rules unless they're explained to us. Yes, we have weird stims, and weird interests, but neurotypicals are not superior in any way.
