Senators say generative AI represents 'unprecedented theft' and must be forced to pay creators for their work

The RICHEST assholes on the planet can't even properly pay workers (and choose poorer countries on purpose) for their fucking plagiarism softwares.
This is so fucked up, I just can't process this. So upsetting.
When will someone STOP this shit??

Lesley Stahl reports on the growing market of “humans in the loop” — workers around the world who help train AI for big American tech companies. They say they face poor working conditions, low pay, and undertreated psychological trauma. Sunday on 60 ⏱️

I had the immense pleasure of creating the cover art for Alcest's 7th album, "Les Chants de l'Aurore". Neige asked me to reinterpret Sydney Long's beautiful painting "The Spirit of the Plains".

I started making comics in 2014 when I was 40yrs old. A comics critic, I was inspired by the zines and work I saw at SPX 2013. I thought, why shouldn't I make the things I love. This will be an ongoing thread collecting links to my work, free-to-read. Some of it is all me, some is by collaboration.

There was a chase sequence in FULL TILT that was 24 consecutive pages long, 12 double page spreads that joined together to form one big spread. Sadly I couldn’t afford to make a poster of it all together.

But here's the thing: every other thing you see in a comic page, that you love, was made under the same conditions.
its a wonder we manage to make an issue every month: Editors, writer, artist, inker, colorist, letterer, designer. all working against time
its just amazing

Lazy people simply can't do 20+ pages of comic every month
if you see rushed inks or colors, it's not laziness
if you notice a sketchup model, it's not laziness
if you see anything that could be better with more time, it's not laziness
is just that... lack of time

Ten years after its debut, Over the Garden Wall has cemented itself as a modern-day classic. One key reason? Its gorgeous visual style.
