seconding this with: back up your art onto another physical device, like a flashdrive or external hd. do not rely on online storage / cloud services to keep your file backups stored and safe.

and don't just have one copy of your art saved somewhere. save a couple copies between multiple devices.

genAI is dying repost to make it die faster

a kirby air riders results screen where first place and 4th place have been switched. a notice in the middle reads: Tragically, CPU3 passed away during today's race. To honor them and their memory, they will be posthumously awarded the first place title. We understand this may upset the previously determined winner of the race. However, we feel it is important to treat all race participants with respect, and we have determined that this is the best way to show support to the deceased. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Please refer to the Kirby Air Riders™ Health & Safety Guide for more information.

last night i had a dream where i was playing a race against cpus in kirby air riders and won, but there was a mechanic where one of the cpus could be randomly revealed to have died in the middle of the race and it would automatically give them first place

You don't need AI to make animation. You literally have a camera in your pocket. You can draw with a stick in the mud and shoot the frames. There are several apps that help make this even easier.

please create.
even if you dont feel very skilled.
even if it seems like a dumb little thing.
even if you regret aspects of it later.

the right person might find it.
someone might be thinking fondly of it.
it might even mean the world to them.

one of my favorite things about having online friends is seeing pictures of the food they make and going "gimme some" like you're next door neighbors and not thousands of miles away from each other

y'all. remember when they taught us in school that we shouldn't give personal info out to strangers on the internet
can we start bringing that back please? don't verify with these companies it's not just a risk of identity theft anymore, it's so much more

Not surprised that Discord lied, but fucking FURIOUS that they're sending them to a company linked to bloody Peter Thiel.

Meaning any data given to Discord is absolutely going to be given to ICE and other similar groups.

Poster to fight against ai. Visualized is a cave painting inspired horse, with text that reads "art has always been accessible"

I hear a lot of people saying that ai makes art accessible.. well I personally think that's bullshit- so I made this to drive my point home.

Weaknesses: - Unskippable cutscenes - Some chapters feel half-baked - Minor bugs - Excessive makeout scenes - Slow segments in gameplay

A friend of mine was using a tool to analyze market research for his game. As a check he tested it on DELTARUNE. Seems like I have a lot of things to work on...

psst- this is me! check out my site if you like, I got a decent amount of stuff up on there already and the next major expansion in progress is the character pages :3

hi! I'm making a character shrine for Cipher on my Neocities, and I was wondering if you'd be alright with me putting this picture in the fanart section on it? it'd be with credit of course!

Artistic skills are so valuable that rich people spent trillions on AI to steal art for their own because they dont like what progressives create. Don't let anyone convince you that drawing isn't really really valuable to humanity.

Discord wants to know how you feel about AI.

Go tell them: discord.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

It's probably a reference to back when the AI image generators were first taking off, the advice I always saw back then to spot the AI was to look at the hands cuz it often had trouble with them, giving them more or less fingers that they should have or arranging them in nonsensical configurations
