👻Kyle Steen but spoo~oooky 🎃

Let me give some insight on this, as a producer in the dub industry who worked with major streamers, who's witnessed first-hand where this push for AI is coming from.

tl;dr: Only CEOs want this. Tell them how much you hate it. Be loud, email, call, @, post. You will kill this.

🧵⬇️

Keep calling your reps, remind them that the midterms are less than a year away and that you'll primary them if they support any of these.

After publishing this article, I've heard from many that CR seems to be using AI to produce dub CCs. Now, thanks to a slip-up CR had with episode 6 dub of The Banished Court Magician, we can say that with 100% certainty: Crunchyroll is using the AI service Ollang.com for its dub closed captions!

I think excessive walking on concrete with no support can definitely do that over time lol.

Might be plantar fasciitis? I know my feet have been in pain lately cause I walk to work all the time(don’t have a car), so that’s usually the explanation I’ve been given. I try to find like a day or two if possible to stay off my feet to recover, that and inserts for my shoes.

Hey guys. I hate that it got to this point but my account is in the red rn and I have more expenses coming up that I need to deal with before pay day. So any and all help would be greatly appreciated

ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

Ha, “head of the pack”, ha I get it.

Still using my iPhone SE from 2020, holding on strong, till the battery deteriorates to the point it holds a charge for like 2 hours, I’m chillin.

Spoke to a number of devs about how, in the face of CEOs claiming gen-AI is the future, their declaration of being genAI free is making waves.

In an interview with HoYoverse Project Varsapura staff, they were asked about the potential use of AI chat for NPCs

“Probably. Each character is probably going to have their personality and story, which would enhance the degree of freedom and immersion for players.”

The thing is like if we want to fight back against prudery and sex negativity we also have to stop referring to stuff as 'gooner art' and accept that nsfw shit that reads as 'for the male gaze' has as much a right to exist as your favourite yaoi

Ana's situation has gotten more severe. This is blatantly targetted debanking and [extremely unfortunate] proof that these call campaigns are getting under paypros skin

Keep calling Visa and MC and demanding they stop discriminating against adult content!

stop-paypros.neocities.org

Please continue making calls to Visa and Mastercard, because they are working alongside conservative legislators to crack down on free speech and expression!

A dual pronged offense requires a dual pronged defense!

In addition to calling your reps, this website has both a lot of information explaining why these bills are bad/ why section 230 must be protected, as well as petitions to sign for each individual issue!

Signing petitions helps! Make your calls, sign petitions!

maybe we could use another splash screen.

"AI just keeps getting better!" it actually isn't you're just stupid and/or deciding not to care about it anymore.

If there is anything positive about this debacle, it's the massive wave of devs who have come out in response to this to say "actually we use human artists and always will".

You love to see it.

“Laws are threats made by the dominant socio-economic ethnic group of a given nation. It’s a promise of violence that’s enacted, and police are basically an occupying army.”

Mastercard: Sex Work is Work. End Your Unjust Policy. Mastercard's new policy unfairly targets the adult content industry, making sex workers more vulnerable, especially Black trans women. It must be stopped.
