Bong Joon Ho says a good thing about AI is it has ‘the human race finally seriously thinking about what only humans can do’
He then joked that he’s ‘going to organize a military squad where their mission is to destroy AI all over the world’

In Morrow County, healthy adults were coming down with unexplained medical conditions, including diseases that usually afflicted the elderly.
In a survey of 30 homes, at least 25 miscarriages and a half dozen people living with one kidney were reported.

#山海経の怪鳥30羽描く #30WeirdAncientBirds
19羽め：鶉鳥(Chun-niao)。鳳凰の仲間らしい。鳳凰にも種類ってあるんですね！？他にどんなのがいるんだろう。漢字をそのまま日本語読みすると「うずらどり」です。かわいい。皇帝のあらゆる器物・服飾を司るとされているのでスタイリスト鳥っぽく描いてみました。なお上古からすでに針は使用されていたようです。当時は骨製(イラストでは金属っぽく描いちゃったけど…)

Painted this for a charity project with the goal of raising money for the British hen welfare trust.
I joined the project because it's for a good cause and I really wanted to paint a chicken.
Will post more about the project later, so stay tuned!

Also the EMERGENCY NOTICE makes it seem like this is some sort of world-ending catastrophe. Which I mean. If you suddenly took the moon, I guess it would be lmao
