Pew Pew Bang thumbnail. Text says "scrolling gaming tinder". Key images are a phone that shows Cloud's Tinder page. His age is 21, he has no education, and his location says No home (burned down). There's also a picture of Geralt and Gex. Lastly, there are still images of all the cast. Haley looks mischievous, Janet is laughing, Sarah looks confused/disgusted, and Kelsey looks shocked.

Thank you for standing against unethical practices and the vile people looking to profit from this space.

Some thoughts:
When using GenAi as a mood board you don't get sources. This means you deprive yourself from knowledge.
You generated a location? You deprived yourself of knowing more about the interesting parts of the world and why things came to be.
Generate an armor or costume? You deprived yourself on real world techniques, function, form and history.
You generated art inspirations? You deprive yourself of learning about artists from history or lock out living ones from potentially being hired.
Ethical issues of using GenAi models aside, one ends up making visuals mood boards devoid of reality and history. With it one deprives themselves from learning about our world and who is living in it, inadvertently making your work weaker, because of how detached it is from our shared human reality and history.

Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things.

Hereโ€™s a blurb on what I mean:

What are your green flag Pokรฉmon? Pokรฉmon who when people mention they're one of their favourites you know you'll both get along.

Yep! First time I've done any DIY stuff with retro gear. Pretty simple as long as you have the tools. Maybe I'll graduate to fixing up a Gameboy Color one day. For now I can play my original Crystal cart on my Analogue Pocket ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ

A great reference I found from Dr Lava & @didyouknowgaming.com digging up on lost sprites for Pokemon Gold & Silver.
