Displaying Team USA Olympic figure skater Ilia Malnin on a CRT brings out a lot of the artist-intended details that get lost with pure pixels, this is why so many of us retain vintage hardware

wild AI story from the Olympics
ice dancers were told to use songs "in the style of the 1990s." One Czech pair tried using AI to pump out a song to skate to, but their AI bot fully plagiarized "You Get What You Give" by The New Radicals and they had to change it

Man, TCM really presents the Looney Tunes cartoons like the historical pieces of animation that they are. After every short they have someone talk briefly about what you just watched. Haven't seen something like that since the early days of Cartoon Network.

While reporting this, I had something happen that's never happened. A comms rep for one of the co's disputed my reporting and said what I was telling them was untrue because it was not in Grok, xAI's chatbot.

Epstein had many known connections to Silicon Valley CEOs, but less known was how he made money from those relationships.
We did a deep dive into how he got dealflow in Silicon Valley, giving him shots to invest in Coinbase, Palantir, SpaceX and other companies.

With Adobe being very unreliable in the present circumstances with Animate I have been seeing a particular list going around of "Adobe Alternatives". I don't think this list is written by Animation Industry savvy folks so I'd like to present my thoughts on alternatives with each plus and minus

Jason Derulo's Trumpets. A song mostly explaining a lady other songs she reminds him of. You're writing a song right now! You write the song you think she's like! That's why your writing the song!
Then he makes silly mouth trumpet sounds.

Fuck your favourite song. Tell me your least favourite song. The one that makes you die inside the moment you hear the first 3 seconds.

Please join me in remembering the legendary Tony Jay on what would have been his 93rd birthday. Tony loved #ReBoot, and called Ian Pearson to say "you really should bring the show back" during breaks between seasons & he even visited MFE.

"Our standing rule is: If one of us brings up using GenAI in any of our work, then it's safe to assume we've been assimilated by The Thing and should be burned alive by Kurt Russell," said a game design consultant in the US.
Over 50% of game developers now think generative AI is bad for the industry, a dramatic increase from just 2 years ago: 'I'd rather quit the industry than use generative AI'
The latest GDC survey also found that managers are more likely to use generative AI than their employees.
