My hair doesn't match my profile picture any more. ;P Thinking of only doing blue this year. I didn't strip any color this time, just put on some Arctic Fox. The color has actually been staying quite well.

Hey US-based artists, our government is preparing an executive order on AI & asking for public comment. Let's get some letters in (AI corps sure are)! You must submit by 11:59 EST tonight!!

I made a sample letter with submission instructions. Copy mine & augment, or write your own! bit.ly/429UIIw

Love a pay nothing Michael's haul. $18 of store vouchers, got two craft paints,2 clay texture plates and some gesso.

My husband spent $30, which means I get his vouchers for next time. Bwahaha!

Follow me for hacks! 🤣 Marry someone who will buy you art supplies!

Now this is useful! Wanna know how much of the asinine Project 2025 — that project Trump vowed he “didn’t know anything about” 🥴—has been implemented, what’s in the works and what’s in the pipeline?

You can check for yourself with this handy dandy tracker!

This is a big deal, a judge has rejected the fair-use defense in the Reuters AI copyright suit.

The issue is ingestion and use of data in a way that doesn't pass two of the four fair use factors.

This case isn't gen AI, but it's notable because gen AI is even more egregious with data🧵

Me: Why did Google remove Holocaust Remembrance Day?

Gemini: Scalability and sustainability issues.

Me: No, what was the real reason?

Gemini: Trump administration took steps to dismantle federal DEI programs, companies must too.

Me: Wtf Holocaust has to do with DEI?

Gemini:
I asked Google Gemini why Google has removed Holocaust Remembrance Day from it's Calendar app, and it literally said because of DEI.

To clarify - Reuters won against an AI company using their material. This ruling (that fair use doesn't apply to AI training) means copyright is about to tear these thieves to shreds. Hard.

Thomson Reuters has won the first major AI copyright case in the US. The decision has big implications for the battle between generative AI companies and rightsholders.

First 6 days of best artwork for #scrapemebro I'm behind on the challenge, but up for it.

This is fine.
We literally have science fiction on why this is a bad idea.

Here’s a watercolor painting I made last year that I completely forgot to share!

This is “Selene,” and while the original has a home, I have made prints available to those interested. 🌙✨

The US Copyright Office came out with a new report regarding AI & copyright. I read the 50 page report this morning. Not sure I got all of it (will probably need a 2nd run through) but my initial takeaways: I think the headlines I'm seeing are pretty sensationalist and frankly a bit dishonest. 🧵 1/
