nvm it was fun while it lasted

do i win

first podcast episode featuring the new face design too. Here's a teaser clip of me reminiscing on getting banned from club penguin

I knew this creator had used genAI in the past for storyboarding/behind-the-scenes stuff, which i could bite my tongue for since it seemed like none of it ended up in the final product. But that trust is broken, and now i don't know what else is in his videos that he didn't actually make

genAI in content is similar to plagiarism in the sense that if you find one example of it being done, there's probably a lot more that no one's picked up on. it fucking sucks

It's exclusively music ye, no podcasts

what i will say: maybe don't repurpose your old edgelord server with close friends into a public facing hub for a technology a lot of progressive individuals would obviously love next time

it's especially crazy to me because i didn't actually see any backlash other than on here, and it seemed minuscule compared to the viewership and praise it was receiving. I genuinely don't know why the creator reacted they way they did, this is insane

oh i didnt even realize spotify was running ads for ICE jesus christ

Also, Tidal costs less per month than Spotify while paying artists 3x more. So if you can't afford to purchase/support artists directly (entirely understandable in this economy), you're not tied to spotify anymore. Lots of my friends have switched in favour of better and more ethical alternatives
