gAI art is bad because it's stealing labor.

stealing labor from art is easy because no one sees art as labor, they see it as talent.

they see it as talent because it's easier to believe they have a right to hate you because they can't stand they gave up and you didn't.

fuck them, pay labor.

NEW: What went wrong with Dragon Age: The Veilguard? Why was the writing so tonally inconsistent? Why did it feel so shallow? Why were there so few choices?

Really, after ten years of turbulence, it was a miracle that anything came out at all. This is the story: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

While I'm on the general subject of "AI," let me just say that it's a real dickheaded maneuver to tell an actual artist that their work "looks like AI." Their work doesn't look like "AI" because they're aping what "AI" does; it looks like "AI" because the "AI" company fucking stole from them.

Today's the day! So excited that this movie is finally out in the world. I'm so proud of the work we've done making this the biggest and best Sonic movie yet. It's an absolute labor of love from everyone involved and the perfect way to cap off a great year for Sonic and Shadow.

🔸I found my bluesky password! I can finally catch up on some art here. Let’s start with the koi tiger.

I'm George, a concept artist and illustrator that absolutely adores all things monsters and creaturey in nature 🐉

I don't post too much, but I'm always chipping away at something after work that I might share

Don't be afraid to say hello down below!

Also, should have seen it coming. Such fragile ego could not stand it when people wanted to carve out a space for themselves that made it harder for stalkers and harassers. Of course space man was going to get offended that he could not see probably 20% of users because they blocked him.

bleh, one of the difficulties in replacing socmed instead of using another is trying to follow people across platforms. Always be alert when using extensions of course, but the Sky Follower Bridge extension is easing that pain greatly.

Even with the issues of this platform that need to be addressed sooner or later, rather have this platform have a chance to succeed than see Threads be the defacto Twitter replacement :/
