🚨 ADD GLAZE AND NIGHTSHADE TO YOUR ART, ESPECIALLY IF YOU STILL USE TWITTER 🚨
Heads up to artists still using Twitter- Twitter is now adding an "Edit image" button under all images posted on the site that allows everyone to feed it into genAI and modify it as they wish with a prompt

This is your casual reminder that executive orders are not laws.

EOs are directives meant to manage the operations of the federal government. Not state governments.

The states that even deign to acknowledge this are the ones who actively WANT to. No one's forcing them.
BREAKING: Trump says he will sign an executive order this week that will limit states’ ability to regulate AI.

Since @punchcatstudios.bsky.social 's "Over The Garden Wall Reanimated" is debuting tomorrow, I thought now's the time to share my contribution to the project!

Wish I could've spent more time polishing this before the deadline as I was super busy DX

Regardless, hope you all enjoy!

Now that Monkey Wrench Episode 5 is out, here's the two roughs I made for it! As you can tell, it's a lot different in the actual episode with the second shot omitted.

Even though this year was rough with life getting in the way of my shots, it was an honor to be part of the series once again.

Friends (esp if you live in CA) we REALLY need signatures on this petition supporting Bill AB412 - the AI Copyright Transparency Act.

TLDR = this will require AI corps to be transparent about what is in their datasets!

Signing takes 1 min. Once you sign, PLEASE SHARE!! tinyurl.com/4uxbp963

I dunno, I just thought it was a neat idea. 🤷 Had fun with this in my spare time at least.

I’m really excited about The Bad Guys 2, CAN YA TELL

Obligatory #PortfolioDay post!

Name's Andrew, and I'm a digital artist and animator based in Los Angeles with experience in 2D and 3D Character Animation, storyboarding, digital illustration and graphic art!

Despite everything, I'm still hoping for an industry job eventually!

While driving home from work yesterday I saw a giant video billboard playing an ad for a conceptual metro system in Los Angeles with a bunch of 3D motion graphics. I legit thought it was made by a marketing studio at first… until I saw on the bottom right: “Made with Luma AI”

I hate this timeline

FORREAL, HOMEBOY?!

LETS FREAKING GOOOOOOOOO!
Folks! The ban against states regulating AI is DEAD! It’s was voted 99-1!

This victory belongs to us all! Unfettered GenAi is an issue for us all, and groups from all walks of life came together to demand we regulate! Your calls and action made the difference! So thank you everyone! We did this!

Not sure how to do this. My partner and light of 19 years, @mitzistarkweather.bsky.social has been diagnosed with metastatic (stage 4) breast cancer.

We are hopeful that modern treatment can give her many more years of changing the world.

If you’re able, we could use your help.
