made fan art for my favourite horror movie

"gen ai was only used for one image" "we only used gen ai in concept art" "i only tried chatgpt one time"

any & all instances of using gen ai is causing irreparable damage to our planet & our communities. every single tiny bit of usage is harmful. there is no excuse whatsoever. full stop.

“I don’t like Bad Bunny because I can’t understand Spanish.”

You are WEAK. Weeaboos have been jamming out to songs they don’t understand in Japanese for decades.

So I think everyone knows what Chuck E. Cheese is but for non-parents who don't know what LifeTouch is, it's the company that for decades has had a near-monopoly on school pictures.

Okay I get that a lot of the recording was probably done a long time ago since this game has been in development hell for 14(!?!) years but like

You couldn't have replaced or removed fucking CHRIS CHAN?

been in my bed for 3 days straight and i open this hell app for the first time in months

I don't want gen AI in my browser
I don't want gen AI in my pc
I don't want gen AI in my art
I don't want gen AI in my games
I don't want gen AI in my music
I don't want gen AI in my movies
I don't want gen AI in my books
I don't want gen AI in my cart
I don't want gen AI in my life

"AI is inevitable" he shouted as he glazed and turned into a doorknob

so yea AI isn't 'inevitable' you can literally just Not Fucking Use It (and that includes those goddamn generators please stop training their shit)

'AI Prompters are calling out other prompters for copying or stealing their prompts.'

Lol. Lmao even. I delight in the thieves eating each other arc.

Anti-AI posting today

still seeing so many people playing arc raiders and am so disappointed because arc raiders literally uses A.I. trained on humans to voice it's in-game traders.

i've seen people try to defend it by saying "well they signed the contract and took the job knowing it would be used for ai so it's ethical" and i'm just like???

as if VAs aren't drowning/desperate for jobs, that definitely doesn't sway their decision to take a contract despite it including ai /s

Text reads: USE AI? No thanks. I'd rather get my misinformation from the local swamp hag.

anti ai, pro hag

YouTube video by ParallaxStella Why AI Voices in Arc Raiders is a Problem

Embark Studios used AI voices for The Finals and stated they don't want to make games without actors.

However, they've continued to use AI voices for Arc Raiders.

Here's my breakdown on how this is harmful for the industry and the general future.

youtu.be/8fVIkOXgd8Y?...

totally agreed. i've just heard that being used as a justification but i'm just here like "it's still genAI being used as a shortcut, harming jobs and the planet???"

"Maybe AI is a creative solution if you aren't a creative person" - Dispatch devs take a firm, refreshing stance against AI Dispatch developer AdHoc has no interest in using AI to replace voice actors or game development.

More of this 👏👏👏

I've heard people liken it to TTS but I feel it's very different. Like the devs said "AI TTS" which just feels like a way to soften the blow when they just mean generative AI and feels like a way to confuse people more familiar with something like twitch's TTS which doesn't use AI from my knowledge

Just make it exist first, you can make it good later ✨

Steve is losing his marbles

Assuming you're not intentionally a transphobe, please just ditch Harry Potter. There's plenty of much, MUCH better-written fantasy made by authors who aren't absolute shit.

And if you ARE intentionally a transphobe, kindly either fuck off or educate yourself, whichever you're capable of.

Moderation tab within bluesky settings. Enabled adult content is toggled on. Adult content, sexually suggestive, geaphic media, and non-sexual nudity categories all have options to show, warn, or hide. In the image, all categories are set to "warn".

only contribution i have to anything: if you don't want to see nudes, bluesky has a setting to either fully hide or add a warning to explicit content under moderation. use it

i can't be bothered to untangle or unpack any of anything going on so i'm just unfollowing anyone i haven't actively played games with, isn't a streamer i watch(or adjacent), or doesn't make stuff i like. guess it's time to isolate and never speak again outside maybe dnd

it's a TON of practice too. i love those "to get to 'this', you gotta go through 'this'" posts from artists. i kinda wish i didn't delete a lot of my old art to see my progress in that format

i def feel like i've lost the plot somewhere along all this but i'm too anxious to even begin asking anyone what's actually happened. i never just want to assume but there's too much vagueposting for my oblivious ass to even keep up atp

do it, teach yourself

yeah i have no clue what's even happening anymore

anyways, although i only did 5 pieces for artfight, i think that's pretty decent for my first attempt at it. i'm not confident about posting them elsewhere but i'm always easy to find after having the same username for 10 years

i'm just tired knowing i'm gonna probably end up self isolating again despite desperately wanting to be more involved in communities

Mr. Antiwar President has us inches away from a Civil War at home and a nuclear war abroad in defense of an ally that is starting random hot regional wars to detract from its ongoing genocide. I’m sure all of this will just naturally cool off.
