like even if it's very short it's still better than nothing at all, "cat picture" or "drawing of person'' is still better than absolutely nothing at all

my comics advice is: show feet

it sounds like dumb online meme nonsense but it's not; every 2-3 pages make sure you draw your character so their feet show, it grounds them in the environment and forces you to vary your panel composition.

Gotta love that argument that even with AI artists would still want to create art, scientists would still want to research and programmers would still want to program.

We're living in capitalism. You don't have the time, energy or resources for this while working full-time at Starbucks.

It says a lot that AI “artists” are so creatively bankrupt they think writing prompts is a difficult, arduous task.

You realize coming up with a prompt is what a real artist would call “having an idea,” right?

It took them weeks of sleepless nights to have some basic thoughts.
McDonald's has released an AI-generated Christmas ad

The studio behind it says they 'hardly slept' for several weeks while writing AI prompts and refining the shots — 'AI didn't make this film. We did'

was at an event on AI for science yesterday, a panel discussion here at NeurIPS. The panelists discussed how they plan to replace humans at all levels in the scientific process. So I stood up and protested that what they are doing is evil.

this genuinely, for real, does make me feel better sometimes

every time you really land a joke, just remind yourself, "wow, all that money and Elon Musk still can't do that"
Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.
