Hello #Portfolioday!

I'm Flo, a hobbyist artist, and I LOVE dreamy and epic landscapes 🏞, space 🌌, dragons🐉 and fantasy OCs!

Digital art of a night city lit by warm beams of the setting sun, and above it is a starry, cloudy night with a nebula. On a mountain top nearby sits a lindworm dragon with long wavy horns to which the falling stars are attached

Digital painting of a fluffy white dragon who is sitting atop a snowy hill surrounded by pine forest, looking up into the night sky where there is aurora borealis

Digital painting of a white, iridescent dragon covered in crystals, sitting in a forest among stones with crystals, its wings spread, lit by sunlight through the foliage

Digital painting of Lorelei Carminbow (OC) sitting on the edge of the wall, looking down at the city lights in the sunset, while above her is the night sky with a purple nebula

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.

Also, how are they going to "save the family unit"? They can't force people to do what they want. Gays are not going to marry someone of the opposite sex and have 2.1 children. Women are not going to quit their careers to submit to husbands who can't actually afford to be the sole providers.

An illustration of a person from the chin down. They have both their arms around black wolves, which are asleep and cuddled against the person. Two more wolves are asleep and piled on top. The person and the animals are all smeared and smattered with blood, indicating they had a great meal together.

A man curled over onto his elbows, his head in his hands, amidst green leaves. A glowing, luminous dagger dangles above his neck and spine. His hands are cupped and outstretched towards the sky. Luminous liquid slips through his fingers.

A small child holding a bunny rabbit stuffed animal standing in front of a line of darkened forest. Inside the forest are lots of glowing sets of eyes

An oil painting of a foggy, monochrome forest with a singular man with glowing eyes standing in front of it. Before him are multiple shadows of wolves, their eyes glowing in the darkness as well.

Digital artwork of a witch standing waist deep on a Bog, dead hands reaching out of the water. She wears brown clothing that's clinging to her, and smudges of mud on her skin. A heron stands in the tall grass in the background, and mushrooms grow on a fallen log in the foreground

Digital artwork of two characters. The man has on a leather vest over a flannel shirt, a compass rose tattoo on his arm, his brown hair blowing in the wind. He's leaning close to the woman, who has cherry pink hair in a twisting braid, wearing green overalls over a yellow tank top. She leans against a metallic wall covered in vines. A tornado rages in the background

Hello #PortfolioDay!
I’m Runo, a freelance fantasy artist specializing in characters ✦🌿

A black and white drawing of a character with curly horns and long dark hair worn in two loose braids, surrounded by a forest background and a decorative frame. There's a scar running across their mid chest and ribs. The character is gently holding their hands over the scar, with a calm expression on their face, eyes closed.

A black and white drawing of a long-haired character with antlers and fluffy ears, portrayed against a forest background. A circular shape frames their face from behind, and multiple sparkly shapes decorate the portrait.

A black and white drawing of a character with long dark hair and curly horns, surrounded by stylized foliage. A symbolic dagger seems to be piercing their throat. The character has a calm expression - eyes closed and a subtle smile on their lips.

A decorative and detailed black and white portrait of a long-haired character with pointy ears. They are dressed in fancy clothing and wear jewelry. Their eyes seem to be slightly glowing as they gaze at the viewer.

GenAI truly was the worst technology to come along at this moment.

An energy and water guzzler when we most urgently need to take climate action.

A disinformation machine as our journalism fails.

A bias machine as fascism takes root.

A job killer in a cost of living crisis.

The "cognitive decline and brain damage from repeat COVID infections" and "easy to use robot that makes slop and melts your critical thinking skills" is a hell of a combo in a post-fact media ecosystem
