Illustration of a blue round creature with wings and a tail, containing the text β#PicturesMeanBusiness.β Beside it, hand-lettered in blue, is the question: βWhy do so many book people keep forgetting to credit illustrators?β Small text at the bottom credits illustrator Sarah McIntyre and the website
Authors & Publishers posting about illustrated books launching this week: pls credit ILLUSTRATOR.
Doing a #CoverReveal? Credit illustrator & designer. Not only does this help boost artist but it shows people that you hired a HUMAN artist.

Pencil illustration depicting 3 teenagers portrayed as characters of books that they're reading. A pirate, a detective and a vampire
Shelved concept. The idea here is that through reading, kids get to become the hero of the story they are reading.

graphic with a turquoise background with black text reading 'MAKE IT FAIR' - the 'AI' of 'FAIR' is highlighted in white. Subtitle reads 'the government is siding with big tech over British creativity'
Today's the final day to make our voices heard against the government's proposed plans to allow AI developers to steal our work for use in training their AI systems. It's theft, plain and simple, but you can object by filling out the IPO consultation.

collage like illustrations in magenta, blue and yellow. One of a happy diver with a fish. One of a Japanese lantern with type.
These tickets have a lighthouse in green, against a blue sky. And a very cute, simple seagull on the other ticket.
Yellow Japanese folk mask, with a geometric face in red and green. And the other ticket has a blue winding river and yellow fish.
A yellow ticket with two white candles, one in the shape of a snowman. The other has a dancing character against a magenta wave,
A Monday mood enhancer, 24 Japanese train tickets from 1956/57. Enjoy!

AI haters build tarpits to trap and trick AI scrapers that ignore robots.txt
Attackers explain how an anti-spam defense became an AI weapon.
Basically traps AI crawlers and sends them down an "infinite maze" of static files with no exit links, where they get stuck and thrash around for months. Once trapped, the crawlers can be fed gibberish data, aka Markov babble, which is designed to poison AI models arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

The reason A.I. is being shoved down our throats is shareholders want a return on their investment. Every company that integrates this crappy tech into their products knows you don't want it, but they've sunk too much money into it and don't care. Turn it off, don't use it, don't look back.

A picture of the grid of an AI profile on Instagram, that was made and is being ran by META.
I remember when we were trying to tell folks that amongst the minorities, Black people would be amongst the first to be displaced by gen AI.
Now look at this BS.
Meta have created a model minority person which, if weβre being honest, is made to fit into the white gaze. π«

A demo page of my inked brushes for Procreate.
My #Procreate inks, just a small part of my upcoming brush set for Procreate. If you knew how much I worked on this, you wouldn't mind paying $20 for the full pack. It might as well might be that much because damn this is fun, but also hard work. Artists gotta eat. #ProcreateArtist

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.
He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.
Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.
