I'm working on a memorial portrait of a family member that passed recently, and the fact that I *know* people are going to ask if it's AI at the funeral makes me want to peel my skin off

Imagine the Animate thing happening to any other product. Imagine you were leasing a car and the manufacturer arbitrarily decided to cut your term short, then decided you could never buy a car again. What the fuck

"it's gotten stale" like there's a single person on earth who has ever willingly updated an adobe program on purpose
Called and spoke with Adobe customer support and the guy told me Adobe is discontinuing Animate because apparently the company can't think of any new features to add to the program and they feel it's gotten stale.
So they're just GETTING RID OF IT???

Same! And I've stopped summaries by switching to Duck Duck Go and disabling all the AI stuff. Doing great 👍🏼
I've been hearing this refrain lately about AI-
"Everyone uses it, some people are just honest about it."
Bullshit. I can't stop search 'summaries' popping up, but otherwise it's not something I use or want in my writing process.
Never prompted ChatGPT.
Never spent AI credits on Microsoft/Adobe.

A few days ago I took a bad spill and punched ice so hard coming down that I scratched up my knuckle. Unfortunately, the ice I punched was the frozen water variety.
