i know WHY this is but that just makes it even more of a kick in the pants lmao
screenshot of a tumblr post from user “wildmansters” The thing that really boils my potatoes about Al in general is that I have been a creative professional for over a decade now and the devil has ALWAYS been in the details. Big and small, I've had single-person businesses rip me to shreds over how their colors turned out on newsprint, and have worked with huge companies with THICK brand guidelines with every detail of their brand identity laid out and enforced with an iron fist. But I guess all of that stuff doesn't matter anymore? Who gives a fuck if this Al generated baby has six fingers, that mom-and-pop shop is still going to use it. That rug from Temu says Happy Thanksgivirg? Oh well haha it's just a silly funny thing now (nevermind that you never would have given a B-grade item from a craft show the same consideration). I don't actually care that the Al Coca-cola ad has a truck that changes size every scene, but I can't help but think about how, if it had been some poor underpaid artist, they would have been laughed out of the building. I don't really know how to put it in a succint way but it just feels all the more obvious how much more grace and flexibility has always been possible but never offered.

Quote how you draw women!

With reverence
Coloured digital drawing of a white haired woman in a brown trencoat. She wears glasses and glass over her right eye swirls with green energy that extends into a swirling aura around her. Odd caterpillar like buggs float around her, and she has grabbed one of these bugs in her clawed right hand Digital painting of a fleshwarp woman relaxing on a mountain of pillows, her right arm and hair are made up of fleshy, centipede like growths. Her left hand clasps a pipe that fills the room around her with purple smoke. Digital painting of a half stormgiant. She's clad in a dress with sheer sleeves and skirt, over it she wears a black patterned vest and another dark skirt. Around her waist sits a belt that is cluttered with knick knacks. In her left hand leaning to the floor, she holds a sheathed sword. In her right arm, leaning to her shoulder she holds a wooden scepter. Her skin is of a pale purple, and her hair is gray like a stormcloud with sparks of electricity jumping from it.

The "Frieren angle" thing, apart from just being delightful, also completely demolishes the pathetic "AI is democratising art" argument. Someone struggling with a difficult drawing received advice from hundreds of strangers who just wanted to help them improve their art.

Joyce Carol Oates may be the best poster of our time.
Screenshot of a tweet from Joyce Carol Oates made recently about Elon Musk. Joyce Carol Oates @Joyce....17h ... So curious that such a wealthy man never posts anything that indicates that he enjoys or is even aware of what virtually everyone appreciates- scenes from nature, pet dog or cat, praise for a movie, music, a book (but doubt that he reads); pride in a friend's or relative's accomplishment; condolences for someone who has died; pleasure in sports, acclaim for a favorite team; references to history. In fact he seems totally uneducated, uncultured. The poorest persons on Twitter may have access to more beauty & meaning in life than the "most wealthy person in the world."
