We as fans and professionals need to be sounding the alarm over AI as loudly and as frequently as possible, PARTICULARLY when it's so shamefully clear that it's been used

There is a sequence in Gore Verbinski's upcoming movie Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die, where people are scrolling a social media feed that is entirely made up of "ai slop" videos, and during the Q&A after the screening I saw, he said every one of those videos was made by a CGI artist, no AI involved

the disdain for workers losing their livelihoods just drips off of this whole fucking thing like mud off a pig. The smug confidence of a man who has convinced himself that HE is definitely uniquely irreplaceable, only LESSER work is under threat.

all the articles you read about this will say it "would charge doctors" but there is nothing in the bill limiting the felony crime to medical providers. you could write "would charge parents" and be just as correct. news outlets downplay it because news outlets are transphobic.

Using genAI for concept art is so fucking stupid because like... that's where you get the cool shit. Thats the blue sky phase where artists make pieces of art that will be seen by a teenager later and change their life forever. Why would you want to start from mediocre. Why would you do that.

The end of Section 230 would mean the end of all but the largest websites that allow user-generated content at all - and even the largest would be radically changed and locked down

It would probably mean the end of your fav streamers' careers

Call your senators and your representatives about this
Sen. WHITEHOUSE: We finally are moving to file a bipartisan Section 230 repeal bill. Waiting any longer serves no useful purpose.

Once I stayed up all night drawing actual illustrations for a spot that ran nationally on short notice and I would like to tell the people who “hardly slept” because they were “writing prompts” that they are soft pathetic babies who can go to baby hell.
McDonald's has released an AI-generated Christmas ad

The studio behind it says they 'hardly slept' for several weeks while writing AI prompts and refining the shots — 'AI didn't make this film. We did'

Thought:
Turning Point USA is funded by Visa and Mastercard — those payment processors appear on its donation page.

Visa and Mastercard are currently censoring art and media for crimes like “having cat ears.”

TPUSA is currently advocating for bullying teachers and children.

Therefore, if Visa and Mastercard are currently condoning and financing bullying.

We can and should call them about their decision to endorse TPUSA and its policy of bullying.

If I can’t buy Diablo 2 on Steam, why can someone donate to TPUSA to bully teachers or trans people?

Next week the House E&C Committee is looking to run something of a shock and awe campaign, debating at least 19 bills that they say are related to "protecting kids online." Most of which are actually about censorship and control. Don't buy the framing. It's always the same damn thing.
