When we write or draw porn or erotica, we get banned from having a bank account and our livelihoods get seized even if we give it away for free.

When billionaires steal what we've written or drawn to churn out a slop-approximate of porn, they're allowed to charge for it.

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

My slots are open again‼️
I have been on a mental health break but I need to get back to work to keep the lights on.
This year has been rough for me, with both my grandparents passing this summer and my mental taking a huge hit due to that so I truly appreciate all the help!

The drawing is drawn in fisheye perspective.

I've always hated the "They must have been on drugs when they made this" response to any kind of weird or unusual art.

But there's a new phrase I hate more. "Where's the Sora watermark? This can't be real!"

It's the worst way to erase human creativity and weirdness.

my favourite thing

the sole purpose of it is to be a headbar on websites, and to be sort of self portrait of my tacky interests. I am very normal about stickers.

digital illustration in style of trompe-l'œil portraying a close up of framed, dusty, painting with gloomy landscape of flooded cemetery in foggy weather. There are few bare trees on both sides. The painting itself is ruined by stickers of: a boy, the bear in footbal tshirt holding a ball, a cat, a magical girl with stickers of stars around her, a frayed leftover after attempt of removing the sticker. The sticker with the shapes and placement are resembling the tombstones in the picture.

PATRON OF
#art #fanart #LegacyOfKain #Raziel

Fanart for video game Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver depicting character Raziel on top, and taking final blow with spear over one of the trash enemies in the game. The characters are within small frame with illegible organic pattern from where behind a rusty plates and broken steel frames looming in pure darkness. Outside of the frame and characters there is also pure void making whole composition floating in darkness. Every color in the picture is muted and dirty. The scheme goes around browns, grays, and red. The composition is a reference to depictions of Archangel Michael killing the Devil in christian art.
