My journey at ModelFarm has come to an end today.
Over 5+ years (my longest running job) I've had the absolute pleasure of working with a bunch of truly amazing, talented coworkers. From the early days working on Arch Vis to an incredible range of Films, TV Shows and Interactive Experiences.

Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things.

It really is dire out there, cannot stand Generative AI/ML "Art", why take the soul out of art, why take the fun out of art, why take the satisfaction of completing a difficult piece of art away.
Some of the arguments I see out there are just bonkers

Steam should really start selling movies again. But not streaming. F streaming. Sell em like they sell games, but you download in whatever quality you want. They could be the only people offering lossless format movies digitally. Just give me the fuuuucking video file
