my “AI is over” anecdote is that my wife was hired over the summer to write scripts for a big tech company explaining how to use their AI tools and after many rounds of revisions, the latest notes said “we’re finding a lot of AI fatigue among our users” and to remove all references to AI
Anecdotally on twitter seeing a big shift the last few days from every AI slop account saying every other creative field is “over” and they’re in control now to now posting about how nobody likes them and it’s not fair and they’ll persevere and real artists respect and uplift eachother

It captures, in the simplest and starkest terms, the brutal arithmetic driving this country's homelessness catastrophe.

SAG-AFTRA is required to have a framework in place so that it can tackle the legal issue of AI
This wouldn’t be necessary if corporations across the board weren’t careening headlong into AI like a bunch of crash test dummies
The issue is with the people pushing for AI. Not those fighting it.

"But Sena, SAG-AFTRA was in bed with Ethovox!"
That's because if they didn't have an AI clause in place in their contracts, then there would be nothing the union could point to in court when suing companies that run afoul.
(Also, the company would have to get all the old actors' permission first)

instead of buying shit that's not even on discount today you should instead support independent webcomics for the low, low price of read them for free online. Maybe even hand them a couple of bucks or buy something from their online storefronts... just saying...

The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.

To wit: 4Kids dubs are literally what helped bring the medium to a broader American market, when the mainstream adult world wasn’t (and STILL ISN’T) willing to treat anime as anything other than toddler fodder.
It’s easy to poke fun now, but the industry blossomed in part BECAUSE of their ambition.

Seen discourse re: AI dubbing about how “dubs are this bad anyways, screw those cliques who throw in amogus references”
That’s intellectually dishonest. Even the cheesiest 4Kids dub can make me feel something real over AI.
I say this as someone who prefers subs, too.

Remember, the big argument for AI in the arts is that these “artists” have ideas, hundreds of ideas, thousands, all that was stopping them was the hoards of gatekeeping musicians, writers, illustrators… and not that they were lazy and didn’t want to put in the work.

If they have 90 shows and push out 10 AI dubs, they can start marketing “we have over 100+ shows!”
It’s not about quality, but the scope of offering. *Your* subscription money is used in part to fund it.

Welp, a second AI dub on Amazon has apparently been found, and it's a show that already had a perfectly normal (albeit non-union) dub: No Game No Life.
