Illustrator, like a ray of sunshine and a pencil had a baby. https://www.shawnielsen.com/
Until the latest update Adobe had a bright red button for their generative ai live on the edge of your art board in Adobe illustrator and you couldn’t turn it off. Just total dogshit design, the only other place I’ve seen design like this employed is on clickbait websites and the Pirate Bay.

They’re begging you to click on it - the buttons are often bigger than their counterparts or are in bright colors while others are black and white. Meanwhile prompts to use it will pop up constantly. Sure seems like they’re having a lot of trouble getting people to use ai.

They absolutely know what they’re doing.

If it’s so disturbing why haven’t you called for Trump to step down?

I regularly get ads letting me know ChatGPT can turn my real life cat photos into a cartoon version of my cat photo - upload now! Doesn’t feel like something a trillion billion dollar company with access to the singularity would be advertising but what do I know.

Hickenlooper is behind in D polling and is running the most half assed campaign I’ve ever seen him run. It feels like he’s definitely auditioning for his post political career of collecting checks and bumping uglies with his 30 years younger lady friend.

It’s because they like Trump and want to help him.

there’s this weird idea a lot of people seem to have about how all of us writers and artists must secretly want to use AI and are merely resisting temptation for ethical reasons, and like, no, it’s not hard for me to resist drinking the bowl of Piss With Glass In It actually

Because they like Trump and want to help him and mentioning that it would be illegal would look bad for him.

Meta plans to continue to use photos of your pre-teen daughters to lure 45 year old men into signing up for Threads and they have no remorse about it and told the Guardian as much. Fucking disgusting.

Meanwhile the right (along with the mainstream press in the US) is absolutely in denial about Trump’s deteriorating condition. Guy can’t walk straight, he’s constantly covered in huge bruises, his face randomly droops and he’s often sleeping during important meetings/events.

There’s the one who went to fancy parties with Ezra and the one everyone else saw. It’s one big club and you ain’t in it.

Why the fuck would they meet with him in any other venue than a court room?

If power at the federal level is somehow wrestled back from the GOP a red state is absolutely going to work itself up based on some Fox News bullshit and send national guard troops to a neighboring blue state. This will be part of their playbook going forward - they’re not going to give it up.

They would just invoke the “our special baby boy Trump doctrine” and then hop on some billionaires private yacht for a nice vacation. They don’t care about being hypocrites.
