Watching comic writers/artists beg for money for medical bills, while their creations reap billions, has been quite eye-opening.

my dudes there's no such thing as "too late" to regulate AI, that's a fake idea. AI models aren't untouchable data gods, they're algorithms hosted in cloud storage. Saying we can't regulate AI is like saying we can't deplatform Child P*rn bc "it's already out there". Like, 1s and 0s can be deleted

Understanding the gestalt principle---that is, the way our brains automatically complete images and patterns---is really important imo to creating art that grabs people's attention. If it's all on the page, be it textures, movement, or a character's emotions, there's nothing for your brain to DO
Kelly’s frequent trick with Donald - and a trick more cartoonists need to remember: show us the moment just *before* you need a mop to clean up the blood, let imagination do the work of momentum

The Adventures of Prince Achmed is the earliest animated feature that survives today. It's from 1926 -- and it's a masterpiece.
Director Lotte Reiniger and her team set out to make a movie unlike any other, and they succeeded. We tell the story:

There was only one Sabu.
If you weren't around when he was on the come-up in 1993-1994, I'm not even sure how to describe what finding out about the guy and seeking out videotapes of him was like. He was the first ever true indie wrestling superstar.
RIP, Sabu. May his memory be a blessing.

A lot of what he did was not conventional pro wrestling storytelling. But with stuff like this, the deliberately messed up spots, etc., there was absolutely a method to his madness, and hey, it got him over and made him money.

Sabu was a wrestler you didnt see first. You heard about him. Like you heard about the Exorcist or the Texas Chain Saw Massacre on VHS. An infamous, influential forerunner of the style that would become common place. An incredible look, a unique style, a complete one off.
RIP

Say it after me: Chat GPT is not a search engine. It does not scan the web for information, it just generates statistically likely sentences. You cannot use it a search engine, or as a substitute for searching.
Now. Please never use an LLM for information searches ever again.
