My favorite artifact in the "you don't need AI to do art" discourse is, of course, screenwriter Dan O'Bannon's sketch of the facehugger to explain it to Giger.

A 2 panel sketch disgram of a 1 meter tall pod. in the second panel, an oval section pops off and a demonic little face with short tentacles flies out, crudely drawn.

La Brea Tar Pits & Museum

@tarpits.org

⛏️ This block of bones was excavated back in 1914 from one of the smallest pits at the #TarPits, Pit 81, and contains numerous fossil bones and shows the amazing density of specimens found in the excavations.

Explore more amazing discoveries at TARPITS.org!

A portion of the Pit 81 block sliced through, showing numerous fossils, as it might appear if the asphalt matrix were clear.

A photo from the 1914 pit 81 excavation where excavators took a solid block out, boxed it in place, and moved it on a mule-drawn cart.

🦖✨❤️WELCOME TO JURASSIC PARK🦖✨❤️

I made this poster back in 2018, and it's still one of my favorite older pieces, but I should probably update this or just do a brand new one somday. If I could be drawing dinosaurs all the time I'd be a happy gal!

Pinterest CEO says in layoff email: "We’re doubling down on an AI-forward approach – prioritizing AI-focused roles, teams, and ways of working"

So it's time for me to move to another platform to save images

Linkedin Post from a Pinterest designer reading: "Yesterday I was impacted by the Pinterest layoffs. I was Pinterest's only icon designer and product illustrator.

In his email to the company, the CEO said "we’re doubling down on an AI-forward approach – prioritizing AI-focused roles, teams, and ways of working". I WAS working on AI projects including the Pinterest Assistant that soft-launched in October. If you haven't heard about that feature launch, you can find it on Pinterest's own newsroom or with a Google search.

I was vocal internally about how our users don't want AI slop or features on the platform, how we as employees are feeling uncomfortable and discouraged about AI, and what I wanted from leadership. Last year, I told my manager I was worried about AI-based layoffs. I was told not to worry. At an onsite, we were told that "in the future", we would all be "managers of AIs". That I would be expected to manage some sort of AI employees, rather than craft and design my own work.

Human-made art and design matter. I am never going to stop creating, even if the "home of inspiration" decides that creators are secondary to profits.

If you want to support me, you can follow me on threads or instagram @bonniekatewolf where I post my hand-knit sweaters and oil paintings. If you want to hire a human illustrator, designer, or iconographer, my email and DMs are open for freelance, contract, or FTE roles."

IRON LUNG OBSERVED it was good! I think I need another watch. First impression is it’s like a good chocolate cake but it needs a dash of espresso to really send it. Or like a chili but without the sprinkle of cocoa.
Either way refreshing movie I had fun.
