You really can't minimize the use of genAI without shitting on the labor you are replacing with it.
"We only use it to ideate and explore references! Unimportant things that don't matter! Nobody cares about those things, right? We all agree this is unimportant garbage work, right???"

"I didn’t say we use it to develop concept art" just to make reference, get ideas from and outline composition lmao

the only good thing about genAI is that it got me to really love seeing bad art, because I know a person put in time and effort, made themselves vulnerable by showing it to others, and is trying to improve. I value that more than anything now

I will never forgive generative AI for making me question every “Dog being silly” compilation.
Like how bad does does something have to be to suck the joy out of dogs being idiots.

I'm tired. We're all tired. This isn't hard to understand. You can't inflate prices of basic necessities like food and housing to ridiculous highs while keeping wages at poverty levels, then act surprised when luxury goods/services and large purchases become unattainable or payments unaffordable.

This is why we fund scientists to study things like oyster slobber even if you don’t think it sounds important
⚠️ Chinese researchers have invented bone glue that mimics how oysters stick to surfaces underwater.
The adhesive can reportedly repair orthopedic fractures in 2-3 minutes, even in blood-rich environments, and is bioabsorbable.

I don't really know how anybody can hope for larger scale action like a general strike when it's so easy to just do the "those blue haired libs want your cookie" routine, and the left is like "here's why we don't want cookies" like that's the actual fucking problem lol

Americans hear that rich people don't pay taxes and float off of rental income and instead of being angry about how unfair that is, they're like "hell yeah I can't wait for that to be me, fuck you all" and I don't know if that can really be fixed, I don't know if it's possible #political

I do not hold business entities as sacrosanct and don't really care if Toys 'R Us/EA/etc. disappear, but investment capital always destroys valuable services and products while leaving scores of people jobless. It makes life worse for everyone except the predators strip-mining their "acquisitions"

Now, more than ever, we need to stand up against attacks on the concept of expertise, to push back on the idea that all arguments, no matter how poorly-supported or financially-conflicted, as equally valid.

capitalism is like, a really really huge pyramid scheme.
When enough people aren't seeing any kind of benefit of capitalism, everything stalls. The whole point is to circulate money, so when it doesn't- bc poor people have none and rich people hoard/accumulate it all- everything just sort of stops

Been trying to explain why economy increasingly feels like it's running wholly on rich people passing each other same bag of money - innovation is stalled, unemployment is rising, but stock tickers are still somehow going up. This example captures the current state of our economy perfectly.
