I apologise in advance, but I just watched a Reddit AI video along the lines of "What if your virtual girlfriend showed up at your door at 3am?" and it's basically Salem's Lot with lipstick.

Your virtual girlfriend arriving outside your bedroom window at 3am, but your apartment is on the 8th floor and she won't stop telling you how hungry she is.

The problem is Marvel movies where everyone is constantly fucking is pretty much the holy grail for a large percentage of the internet. Disney have two options, kill AI now or license it/set up their own porn industry.

Everyone acting like GenAI videos will be used for putting your favourite actors in movies and that those movies won’t be porn. But sure, let’s keep pushing the automated sexual abuse generator.

It's such an insurance scam. Several times across several vets I've been quoted one number then when I've said I've not got pet insurance they drop it by more than half

Take a few minutes to appreciate Drew Struzan creating the original artwork for THE PHANTOM MENACE. Truly a master at work.

OpenAI’s strategy is very clear, it’s trying to get people - especially young people - so reliant on its products intellectually & emotionally (& now sexually!) that going without them becomes unthinkable. And they need signs of that strategy working to keep the funding flowing in

RIP Drew Struzan. His posters are a huge part of my childhood. Iconic images and what a range! From Black Sabbath to the Muppets. I really recommend the Art of Drew Struzan book. The anecdotes about the creation of each poster are fascinating.
