AI is so cool because your nephew will be obsessed with John Cena and he’ll ask to see a match when John Cena won, so you’ll google that and the AI summary will include a list of John Cenas biggest victories so you’ll watch the first match on the list with your nephew and then John Cena will lose.

Do it.

Search your name.

Take their money.

It’s yours anyway.
Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.

OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

Remember: there's no audience for AI-produced content. Nobody in the AI ecosystem is there to read or listen - only to publish their own slop.
The real pitch, of course, isn't to consume the slop, but to join the exalted ranks of slop producers. The typical slop middleman makes an "AI company" - they run the gamut from Grammarly to Synthetic Users - and resells the processed slop with the same pitch: you too can now make slop.

Just in the interest of highlighting good moments in otherwise poorly regarded comics…let’s talk about She Lies With Angels

One thing that bugs me about comics discourse is how people will tear apart an entire story based on one thing that happens in it, especially if it takes a character they like in a bad direction. Like is Heroes in Crisis really the worst comic ever written or do you just hate what happened to Wally?

Whatever else you want to say about From the Ashes…Exceptional X-men is great. Kitty dealing with her ptsd from Fall of X and trying to help these three kids. All I want from my Superhero comics is that they actually be “about” something and not just the latest punchventures of X character.

I have finished Cobra Kai. I don’t think I’ve seen a more consistently great show in my entire lifetime. And it stuck the landing and ended beautifully.

I have been reading some of the more recent Supergirl comic runs, and I have observed that the best parts are when they let @jodyhouser.bsky.social co-write it or do a fill-in arc. What do we gotta do to get her a full run?

I’m really hoping we get omnibuses of all the recent Superman runs because this is the most I’ve loved Superman in ages. I want everything Jamal Campbell does in oversized format.

Tonight’s Read: Scarlett: Special Mission by Kelly Thompson and Marco Ferrari. A gorgeously illustrated and moody spy thriller. The Energon Universe continues to kick implausible amounts of ass.

Today I finally got my copy of GI Joe Compendium One (mostly by Larry Hama and Herb Trimpe) I’ve never read this stuff but I am told it is one of the great comic runs of the 80s so I’m excited to dive in. #collectededitions #imagecomics

Maybe I’ll use this account primarily to self-indulge and talk about comics I am reading, because at this point I have to assume my friends and family would like me to stop talking
