we can't get rid of tom cotton......... first time he's had a dem rival since like 2012 though and she's getting more popular. so hopefully in the future we can finally get rid of him!

With that being said:

โ€ข Thereโ€™s still no official response in regards to the Seven Seas Union or why Seven Seas employees were not i formed about the acquisition prior

hopefully we get a statement soon like this one but that remains to be seen

I really do hope that they mean what they say in this statement--that Seven Seas will not use AI for translation. It's good to know they're at least aware of our feelings towards it...

Anyway, for people who don't know the industry, every editor and project manager I've worked with on a translation, both in and out of Seven Seas, has had a clear passion for producing quality work that would make fans happy. I can't imagine a single one of them daring to suggest I stoop to MTL.

Do you care about things? The AI companies want to stop that. Their product, more than any other invention in human history, is training you to stare dead-eyed while a machine serves you a stream of mediocrity

If youโ€™re a fan, itโ€™s a good time to let them know you wonโ€™t pay for AI translations

its so silly to me that any company would try to use ai for manga as it has alrradt massively failed and backfired time and time again. anybody could ask an ai right now to "translate" a book for free. why would they want to pay $12 for that??

02.03.2026 04:35 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

it's extremely hard to trust they won't try to implement ai nonsense......

sorry, let me clarify: IF they actually produce ai slop. the track record puts a huge distrust in consumers mouths. there's not much reason to assume they won't try to implement ai "translation" or whatever. i'd like to believe they won't but that's being extremely generous. just my opinion.

02.03.2026 04:05 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 7    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

so this is what i missed today.... great.

anyway, don't purchase ai slop and tell them you won't. ai does NOT save time and it scams you of what could have been reliably worked on books while charging you for crap. they only care about $$ so spend it elsewhere. sorry my 7S colleagues... this sucks.
