Below post's image with alt text. Original article referenced is in that post's quote post.
However, Chat GPT's new image generation function simply uses human creations without permission, chews them up, and spits out a reconstructed version. There is no creativity, spirit, or effort that makes art art. According to Business Insider, this new feature is not available in the free version of Chat GPT due to "copyright" issues, but is still available in the paid version. This feature has become very popular among people who have no imagination.

Alt text for above image
Date: April second, twenty-twenty five It happened in the USA. In the halls of Congress. Republican Congressman Keith Self, during a House hearing on censorship and public discourse, looked into the camera and quotes Joseph Goebbels -- Hitler's Minister of Propaganda -- as if he were citing a respected authority on governance. "It is the absolute right of the state to supervise the formation of public opinion." Let those words sink in. This wasn't an academic comparison. This wasn't a history lesson. It was a quote from the architect of the Nazi propaganda machine, spoken aloud by a sitting U.S. Congressman in defense of state control over speech.

"A German friend of my son recently flew to Boston and was put in a room for two hours by immigration officials. She told my son that they searched her belongings, unlocked her phone and looked at all of her messages and photos trying to find any negative comments about Trump so they could send her back to Europe. Some of my own friends have also heard such stories. News like this is spreading in Europe, and people are canceling trips."

It's something that's on their roadmap for messaging. Hopefully sooner rather than later 🤞

No group chat yet, but you can do DMs. Just go to someone's profile and click the little message bubble to the left of the follow button to get started.
Screen capture of the message bubble icon, follow button, and three dot menu icon from someone's Bluesky profile. The message bubble icon is circled.
