How do I feel about generative AI?

@openai, Altman and his cult of followers, and all the businesses chasing this trend, can get fucked.

I’ve been drawing #popcats for 10 years now! I can’t believe I haven’t gotten tired of them yet. For some reason these guys give me a nice hit of dopamine when I’m drawing them! I thought I’d celebrate with an all new Bobcat Ross for 2025!🩷

I spent the last few years getting the opportunity to draw for some big companies, but I’ve missed doing commissions for you all so much! I’m finishing up the “menu” now, and will post it as soon as I can!
May 14, 2025 at 6:13 AM
I think it’s time to open up commissions. I haven’t done this in like 3 years.
Stay tuned for more details next week if you want a slot!
