We don't need AI, but we do need a livable Earth. We can't have both.

Reminder: If you use generative AI for *any of your writing tasks* you are a Slopper not a writer and should be ashamed of yourself. The end.

I find that there’s usually a direct line between people who habitually post unattributed artwork and AI boosterism. Like, if they already act like images just appear out of the ether and have no provenance, they’re also very likely already openly hostile to artists.

Those ppl have never read a single webcomic
When you say you need good art to make comics and that's why you need generative ai, it signals to me the narrowness of your understanding of comics and why it is that you think you can't make them

Sloppers fuck off. If you can’t do it yourself maybe learn to be happy as the audience

The fact that 30% of our stock market is wrapped up in “help-kids-kill-themselves” technology seems to be an important datapoint in the evolution of late stage capitalism.

Let's make AI jealous.
Write what Al can't touch.
Humans can think with their heads, hearts, and bodies.
Try moving your hands.
It's fine if your mind remains a jumble.
Ideas scattered across the paper.
Sometimes they connect by chance, and something new is born.
Pilot had a massive ad spread in a jp newspaper with "make AI jealous" and "write what AI can't touch" written on it

Anyway I think everyone should own a Pilot kakuno pen

Last chance to turn it off.

If you won't hear from me for a while, it's because we failed to escape our current flat before they begun renovating the elevator.. We share two walls with the elevator shaft. Been waking up to loud drilling this week. It goes on for hours. It's driving me insane..

AI:sta sen verran, että ihmisen luovuus ei ole kiusallinen ongelma josta pitäisi päästä eroon.

Mitäpä jos Tampereen kaupunki kieltäytyisi kaikesta tekoälypaskasta. Kaupunki voisi panostaa sen sijaan palveluihin mitkä eivät tuhoa ympäristöä, eivät riko tekijänoikeuksia ja eivät tee kaikista palveluista suoraan huonompia. Käykää vastaamassa tähän todella lyhyeen kyselyyn:

On tää saatana käsittämätöntä, että olemme ylittäneet vaarallisen globaalin lämpötilan +1,5 astetta, mutta mediaa tai päättäjiä ei kiinnosta lainkaan. Nykyisen elämämme perusta on tuhoutumassa, mutta puhutaan vain niitä näitä päivänpolttavia. Media ja päättäjät ovat epäonnistuneet täydellisesti.

"Everyone is doing AI" doesn't matter when there's no consumer demand for it. Slop is slop. Meanwhile quality artists pull the numbers ✌️

"Käräjäoikeus katsoo perjantaina antamassaan tuomiossa, että aktivistit eivät syyllistyneet rikokseen pysäyttäessään hakkuiden etenemisen Stansvikin metsässä syksyllä 2023. Käräjäoikeuden tuomion mukaan aktivistit toimivat pakkotilassa."

Ympäristö | Aktivistien oli pakko pysäyttää hakkuut, katsoo oikeus poikkeuksellisessa päätöksessä
Hakkuiden pysäyttäminen Stansvikin metsässä Helsingissä oli oikeuden mukaan oikeutettua. Pakkotilalla perustelu meni läpi Suomessa ensimmäistä kertaa ympäristökiistassa.

The only truly ethical response that a self-described artist can make. Anything else is a betrayal of one's colleagues.
“I am not interested, nor will I ever be interested. I'm 61, and I hope to be able to remain uninterested in using it at all until I croak. ... The other day, somebody wrote me an email, said, ‘What is your stance on AI?’ And my answer was very short. I said, ‘I'd rather die.’” 🫡
Filmmaker Guillermo del Toro says 'I'd rather die' than use generative AI
Del Toro's new Frankenstein adaption reimagines Mary Shelley's 1818 Gothic novel. Frankenstein was like a tech bro: "creating something without considering the consequences," he explains.
