At this point I feel like it should be commong enough knowledge that that word has a lot of transphobic baggage, alongside shit like "trap" and we don't use it anymore.

"But it's an old Japanese medical term!"

Bro old doctors called you the r word if you were disabled we aren't using that excuse.

You’ll notice that new developments in generative AI are always accompanied by new ways of depicting women without their consent—undermining their autonomy and harassing them—almost like it’s a pillar of the technology and its evolution

I feel like when an apocalyptic bill get shot down due to public outcry they shouldn't be allowed to just wait & run it through again, not once, let alone 12 times or whatever it is now

came across this ridiculous AI puffpiece about how inclusive and progressive chatgpt is now because it can generate images of people cross-eyed and missing parts of their limbs lmao

don't worry about the environmental and ethical implications though! WILLLDDD

A headline and image for a news article.

Headline: AI couldn't picture a woman like me - until now

Image of Jessica Smith, a slim blonde white woman in a tank top that reads fearless chick. Her left arm is missing below her elbow

Standfirst: When Jess Smith uploaded a photo of herself into an AI image generator this summer, she wasn't expecting a social experiment.

But ChatGPT couldn't create the image she was asking for and despite various prompts, the results were largely the same - a woman with two arms or one with a metal device to represent a prosthetic.

She asked the AI why it was so hard to create the image and it said it was because it didn't have enough data to work with.

"That was an important realisation for me that of course AI is a reflection of the world we live in today and the level of inequality and discrimination that exists," she says.

Up until early October, Smith wasn't able to create an image of herself but after the BBC asked ChatGPT why this was and Jess tried again, it was possible.

She was amazed to find it could now produce an accurate picture of a woman with one arm, just like her.

"Oh my goodness, it worked, it's amazing it's finally been updated," she tells the BBC. "This is a great step forward."

A comic of two middle-eastern people in the mountains on a sunny day. US drones are dropping bombs on them. One says 'They say the next ones will be sent by a woman!' and the other says "really make you feel like you're a part of history."

Ended up uninstalling Facebook, fuckin can't anymore

I'm already anxious as shit as-is, that place reminding me how fucked the climate is as I struggle to wear a jacket in October isn't helping.

Well, It's that time of year-
#TFCon Chicago is only about a month and a half away!

If you're attending and YOU want any traditional art from me, order before October 13th and I'll make sure it gets hand delivered to you at the con!

See you then!
