It's also tiring seeing people continuously give AI space indirectly as a "gotcha!"
Stop comparing yourself to AI slop.
Stop making art trends as a direct response to viral AI posts.
I don't create "in spite of" AI; I create because I enjoy creating.

Hi authors! Please remember to file a claim!
AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action

Ive been made aware that the Patreon AI Survey link going around is ID tagged and therefore, unfortunately, all of the responses through that specific link are likely going to be purged.
this link does not have the ID tag. I'm sorry to ask folks to fill it out again, but i recommend doing so.

I don't know if it's being sent at random, but I got an email survey from Patreon. And I never miss an opportunity to yell.
It's all about AI.
They very much want to use AI.
They very much want to use your art to train AI.
They could not broadcast more clearly how much they want a piece of that AI

Do not accept the question "But how do we pay for it?" about social programs ever again. That talking point is done forever.
$170 billion could end homelessness. It could fund Head Start or pay for nutritious school meals for our kids for well over a decade. But it’s instead going to Stephen Miller so he can build his mass deportation army to target our immigrant neighbors: americasvoicecnn.substack.com/p/stephen-mi...
Stephen Miller Is Getting $170 Billion To Build His Own Army To Target Our Immigrant Neighbors. Here’s What That Funding Could Do Instead
This unprecedented allocation of taxpayer money could go to helping working families all across America, on everything from education, hunger, housing, healthcare, and the environment.
