An 8x8 inch art print of a symmetrical formline raven, coloured black with cascading rainbow highlights on their wings, head crest, and beak. The raven forms a heart shape.

A formline design of a butterfly cocoon and a butterfly, coloured in blue, pink, and white. On one half of the chrysalis is a human face, and the butterfly’s wings are formed of human hands.

I've reposted many posts made by folks who were recently laid off from Heart Machine, but here is a thread that highlights them all.

I am also including folks who were previously laid off & are still looking for work. I will be linking their Bsky posts, as well as LinkedIn.

Please, share this. 🖤

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.

I’ve been working for 15 years as an animator and I can tell you without a doubt, the best fix I ever found for imposter syndrome is living a full life where your days and worth don’t hinge on whether or not you were a good animator today.

The first season has more of a prequel setup to it, like you see July get obliterated and Knives end up in the state he is in the OG series.

It also lets Meryl have some actual growth to become the headstrong senpai that Milly looks up to.

Truly one of the best things to come out of #Trigun Stampede is Meryl and Wolfwood interacting and bickering with each other.

I am so glad to see she hits him with another car in Stargaze.

UK Gouvernment: Payment Processors Can Ban NSFW Content
According to the UK treasury, payment processors are in the right and the gouvernment has no plans to step in. This puts it in direct contrast to what artists and the UK games industry have asked for.

An ink illustration of Roathe from Warframe. He is hangled and partially retrained by Harrow's chains, which are going over his left arm and leg and neck. He's supporting and partially freeing himself with his right arm while he bends over, looking at camera in a challenged and intense way.

It's wild because I've seen this with videogames too. Indie devs show a really neat trick they've made to render a skybox efficiently, and the comments are people going fucking nuts ripping them apart because how DARE they CHEAT to OPTIMIZE THEIR GRAPHICS.

Someone asked "why dont artists post tutorials as much anymore? It's always behind a paywall"

I think it is because every single time I have seen a tutorial go viral people end up SCREAMING at the artist "how DARE you tell me how to draw?!"

MvM was another case of my entire animation twitter feed was yelling about watching the movie on release, and so I did exactly that.

Sedona 🍉 @anodesu.bsky.social · 22d

Kpop Demon Hunters had been mentioned as being in production, but I found mostly made the news in small animation circles, most notably when it was nearly scrapped.

Into the Spiderverse had a spectacular trailer right out of the gate and had some serious hype.
