London's giant AI artwork to be torn down The bizarre story of why a much-talked-about creation is being torn down. Plus: Docklands Light Railway extension, giant laser stalks the night sky, and more tales of Android phone theft rejection.

It’s the exclusive everyone wanted, the story that will win next year’s Pulitzer…

I can reveal London’s giant AI generated Christmas artwork, the subject of much online mockery, is being torn down - and I honestly *genuinely* think you’ll never guess why. www.londoncentric.media/p/ai-artwork...

This is incredible. They took this picture down, not because its a nightmare ai monstrosity, but because "it looks like immigrants a bit. maybe." Like 2 different strains of insanity colliding and somehow cancelling each other out

I've created a new blocklist exclusively for accounts shilling Sora 2 since the dominant AI block tool hasn't gotten them yet.

I crawled tags and intentionally skipped over informative, non biased articles or posts criticizing AI

The AI bubble may be about to bust.

Peter Thiel has sold all of his Nvidia stock.

We all need to say this very clearly:

NO BAILOUTS FOR THEFT-TECH!

Expropriate their asses instead.

They stole from all of us and fully plan to burn the planet.

They owe us - not the other way around. 1/3

FNAF/Scott Cawthon should not be supported in any way.

Don't buy/stream his games, give money to the franchise, watch the movies, etc.

He uses his gains FROM FNAF to support harmful legislature and candidates on the right.

Which is bad, yes? Stop supporting him. He deserves nothing.

You can love someone you love even if you don't love yourself🏳️‍⚧️
But if you love yourself, you can love both yourself and the person you love. Your love becomes twofold.
So take care of yourself.
Your soul is beautiful.

Bluesky has finally, quietly posted a position for a one-year remote contract Policy Lead, Trust & Safety position.

Trans people who qualify, apply here: jobs.gem.com/bluesky/am9i...

We need someone competent in this role if this place is going to survive.

The Salvation Army are a hate group. Do not forget that this winter.

Genuinely, as someone who plays several live service games I always have a checklist that's like
- Ask yourself if you're having fun
- Never have a "forever game", play or read or do other stuff alongside it
- Don't set paid subs to auto-renew
- Think about what you want, not what the game wants

"it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed"

This.

This right here.

I'm so, SO tired of having to scrutinize any piece of art that even remotely resembles genAI slop just to determine whether or not it's worth a second thought or any admiration.

Cray-Zee, Crackers, and Cuckoo, because one of their ingredients making them up is Cocaine, and it makes them "flip the f*ck out" by the OG Skits admission.

The Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup PPG designs I made based on my one Blossom plush. Their hair has been changed to pink, blue, and green respectively, & their bang types have been shuffled around.

This is the bootleg Blossom plush in question. Instead of orange hair, she has pink hair, matching her eyes & dress. Her shoes are also long gone. They wore off over the years.

The PPG drawing craze lasted a little longer than I thought. I ended up making these based on a bootleg plush I’ve had for like 15 ish years.

‘The Owl House’ creator Dana Terrace responds to Disney+ funding AI-generated short form content in new tweet:

“Unsubscribe from Disney+. Pirate Owl House. I don’t care. Fuck gen AI.”

Today we honor Steve Irwin, who transformed crocodile conservation by rescuing and relocating instead of culling, and founded the world’s leading crocodile research program.

His legacy endures in the habitats he protected for these remarkable creatures.

I decided to use this as an excuse to get better at replicating the PPG style.

The colors honestly do wonders for making the designs look authentic.

Y’all think we can collectively give em fitting names?
