struggling to make enough art to post!!! here's something #extremeghostbusters because kylie is kind of shown to have a thing with eduardo like, textually, but i firmly believe she had better interactions/chemistry with garrett. and so did eduardo. so like. let's go eduardo/garrett/kylie!!!
digital drawing of eduardo rivera, garrett miller & kylie griffin from extreme ghostbusters. eduardo is a tall, brown haired latino guy kissing the cheek of garrett, a redhead white guy in a wheelchair, who reaches up to hug eduardo, and behind him is kylie, a white girl with blue hair who hugs garrett around the waist and sticks her tongue out.

I've wanted to draw @reallyhardy.bsky.social OCs, the Crypt Crew, for so long! Their designs and color schemes are so fun and it's always a joy to see them! I hope you like it, Loren! 😄

As promised, here are the slides I shared with students to convince them to NOT use chatGPT and other artificial stupidity.

TL;DR? AI is evil, unsustainable and stupid, and I'd much rather they use their own brains, make their own mistakes, and actually learn something. 🪄
NO CHATGPT Or other artificial stupidity: motivation First, clarity on distinguishing AIs: Non-generative: grammar aid, translation, dictionary, text-to-audio (e.g. Natural Reader): no problem As long as you use the appropriate tools (least intensive in data and server energy use). Why? Because you provide the content. Your brain is doing the most important work Generative: ChatGPT & Co. You only supply the prompt, the AI supplies the content. Why is this delegation of work problematic? 3 domains: ethical, environmental, intellectual engagement. (Caveat: generative is probably ok for computer programming, where it can be useful and save time. Not relevant to this class.) 1) AI and ethics Mass theft of all and everything «learning» on books, articles, blogs, social media, images, music, cultural production, without permission of authors/creators, and leading to their mass joblessness. Profits are not reditributed to originators. Permanent destruction of the mental health of underpaid precarious tech workers in the Global South (Kenya, Philippines …): «correction» to avoid production of violent and pedophile contents etc, tech workers are obliged to watch and correct super violent contents for days on end, leading to extreme psychological suffering and trauma, from which recovery is doubtful. No or little compensation (certainly not at the level of the suffering inflicted). In short, an industry built on theft of real human creation and sacrifice of real human health, profiting a few megafortunes. 2) AI and (un)sustainability Massive consumption of electricity, water, server capacity for generative AI. Outcome: keep fossil fuel companies in business, using up new renewable capacity, without any satisfaction of basic human needs. Massive misappropriation of the finance necessary for climate and ecological action (renewable generation, efficiency and retrofit for buildings, public transit, infrastructures for cycling etc) towards AI industry. Overall: undermine climate action, reinforce fossil industry, waste resources necessary for human development. 3) AI and intellectual engagement First, what learning is (or should be) about: The goal should not (only) be the reproduction of «correct» knowledge, But mainly personal engagement and experience of thinking about topics of interest. Personal engagement = using one’s own brain. The most important activity for learning and intellectual engagement is the experience of making one’s own mistakes, by trial and error, corrections based on new ideas, starting over again. Learning to recognise nuances, knowledge gaps, better explanations This kind of learning is possible only through using your own brain, not AI. Also, Ais are not «intelligent». At all. They simply reproduce pre-existing patterns. They «bullshit», invent false references, false facts, false data, simply because those sound plausible. VERY DANGEROUS. If you learn how to NOT use AI, and how to research facts and data on your own, this will serve you and your communities for the rest of your life.

In my petty era, just straight up stopping a YouTube video and refusing to continue to watch if someone mentions they're using Chat GPT. To me this just means you're too lazy to do the research by traditional means. You've just cheapened your entire content and I'm simply no longer interested. ❤️

Little portrait I did for an art trade with @eerivee.bsky.social of their character, Zephyrini (an air genasi wizard)! I LOVE THEM SO MUCH I was so happy to finally get an opportunity to draw them! #dnd #dndart #dungeonsanddragons #art
A digital illustration featuring a portrait over a pale blue background. The portrait is in a linearted, painted style. The character has light blue skin, purple eyes and white hair with grey tips, with pinkish shading. The hair is wavy and very poofy. They are wearing greek style clothing, in pastel tones and gold.
