If I have to explain to you why it's a bad idea to use a machine that makes shit up 15-80% of the time AND destroys the environment AND contributes to rising fascism and genocide AND puts brilliant skillful creatives out of work by stealing their work, then we're already speaking different languages

👀 immediately took out my credit card

I've said it before, ai is a FANTASTIC advertisement for how lazy and unwilling to cooperate with your fellow creatives you are. I don't care what your excuses are, it makes you look stupid. Truly. It's off-putting and cringe and makes you look careless and your creations seem hollow. I pity you.

I use antennapod but I don't love it because it lacks the function to sort by date :( I mean, queuing episodes let's you order them however you want but eh. It's a big wrinkle in what is otherwise a great app

Generative Al is being marketed as a tool designed to reduce or eliminate the need for developed, cognitive skillsets. It uses the work of others to simulate human output, except that it lacks grasp of nuance, contains grievous errors, and ultimately serves the goal of human beings being neurologically weaker due to the promise of the machine being better equipped than the humans using it would ever exert the effort to be. The people that use generative Al for art have no interest in being an artist; they simply want product to consume and forget about when the next piece of product goes by their eyes. The people that use generative Al to make music have no interest in being a musician; they simply want a machine to make them something to listen to until they get bored and want the machine to make some other disposable slop for them to pass the time with. The people that use generative Al to write things for them have no interest in writing. The people that use generative Al to find factoids have no interest in actual facts. The people that use generative Al to socialize have no interest in actual socialization. In every case, they've handed over the cognitive load of developing a necessary, creative human skillset to a machine that promises to ease the sweat equity cost of struggle. Using generative Al is like asking a machine to lift weights on your behalf and then calling yourself a bodybuilder when it's done with the reps. You build nothing in terms of muscle, you are not stronger, you are not faster, you are not in better shape. You're just deluding yourself while experiencing a slow decline due to self-inflicted atrophy.

re: generative AI

I have finally fully and accurately explained my problem with how it’s marketed and used.

And now, you can use it, too.

It's so cool how this world has been deliberately constructed to drive you insane if you're a good person

Mock Moon; A woodcut-style image of a waning gibbous moon with a smiling stylized face looking down over glowing clouds to a forest of black pine trees. The shadowed portion of the moon follows contours of the moons nose and lips acting like a half-mask.

Grinning Moon; A woodcut style image of a leafless dead tree with a steers' skull hanging from it. Behind the tree a grinning blood moon smiles through the dead branches.

Moondog; A pensive-faced blue moon smiles on a field with an abandoned ivy-covered grain silo standing in it. Around the moon is a halo of light also called a 'moondog'.

Rising Moon; Image of a crescent moon turned on its side so it may peer down on a skeleton rising to raise a single finger. On each side of the skeleton is a white blooming night iris flower.

I greatly appreciate the African American Intellectual History Society for creating this thorough SINNERS syllabus. I just saw the film tonight and found it captivating and haunting.

I would love it if every historical movie and book came with further reading lists!

I'm still updating my Ko-fi store with all my prints, but until then you can get a lot of my pieces on INPRNT, plus there's a 20% discount for the next 36 hours ✨

Would be really grateful for any sales this month as I've had some expenses come up, so if you've had your eye on any art from me...

The bundle is active for 10 more days!

Holding off on telling y’all an entirely different joke about Oedipus and Midas, but i’ll tell you this much:

It’s motherfucking gold.

Someone on tiktok said that my “people who use AI are losers and failures,” take is mean.

Good. That was my intent. I intend to be mean to people who use generative AI. Sometimes being mean is warranted.

If you steal people’s work while destroying the planet, people should be mean to you.
