This post is going around again so I will add this excellent resource: leavesubstack.com

AI-generated artwork is officially not eligible for copyright protection after the U.S. Supreme Court declined to review the appeal.

The court ruled that a work must have a human creator in order to qualify for copyright.

Jesse Singal: “I don’t understand why all these experts with degrees keep disagreeing with me. So demoralizing. What could the explanation be??”

I keep saying, it's dangerous to joke about things in Resonite, because 5 minutes later someone will be working on it.

If you have not read Persepolis you should, it is an extremely powerful graphic novel thats available for free on the Internet Archive: archive.org/details/pers... Though I would also highly reccomend supporting Marjane directly and purchasing it as well.

"Artists peak at 30", "30 under 30", "by 30 you should" ridiculous. Arts industries capital craves young people to exploit and burn out. It doesn't want older artists thriving and guiding the young. It also doesn't want artists to exist. Stop letting cannibals tell you you only matter on a plate.

Posting about this again because ComicFury still needs our support! Here's the latest thread from Kyo comicfury.com/forum/viewth...

Hey yall this is your chance to show the trans community you really are an ally and you're not just saying it for brownie points!!

-Do not support ANY of this
-JK Rowling has said on numerous occasions that her income goes DIRECTLY into anti-trans legislation in the UK
-Seriously. NONE. Of it.

They're hoping we'll forget about this in a few months and that we'll resubscribe to Nitro so they can get back their funding for this nonsense. Cancel yours and do not forget about this.

Cat Pokémon Day ( #猫ポケモンの日 )

Good morning! It is now February 22nd in Japan, which means it is Cat Pokémon Day ( #猫ポケモンの日 )!

Love that AI, a thing we hate and don’t want, steals everything, ruins everything, shittifies everything. Drinks our water, plagiarizes our art, pisses all over our information fidelity, drives kids to suicide, serves the right-wing, and fucks up our devices and services. Good job, techbros!

THIS IS FRAUD!! In so many ways, this is evil and should be illegal and should get the whole scam shut down. The platform makes money based on how many users it has. Falsifying the number of users IS FRAUD.

Also, THAT'S EVIL!! It's digital necromancy. Like... digital zombies, digital slavery.

Kinda Fucked Up that in our lifetimes we've gone from "never share personal info on the internet" to "hand over your identity to the most incompetent corporations imaginable".

I have yet to see any evidence that there is a market for AI-generated books outside of people being tricked into thinking they are not AI-generated books. AKA, it is a project of scamming and deceiving people, and really should be treated as fraud

Billie Eilish during her #GRAMMYs speech for Song of the Year:

“As grateful as I feel, I don’t need to say anything except that, no one is illegal on stolen land. It’s really hard to know what to say and what to do right now, I feel hopeful in this room and we need to keep protesting… fuck ICE.”

⚠️TO EVERY ARTIST HERE ON BLUESKY, WATCH OUT!!⚠️

Congratulations to ItsAPuddin for winning our second monthly quickdraw tournament! Out of twenty-one competitors, this impressive duelist came out on top!

We'd like to thank everyone who showed up. Our participants gave us some very impressive draws tonight! #Resonite

Over 50% of game developers now think generative AI is bad for the industry, a dramatic increase from just 2 years ago: 'I'd rather quit the industry than use generative AI' The latest GDC survey also found that managers are more likely to use generative AI than their employees.

"Our standing rule is: If one of us brings up using GenAI in any of our work, then it's safe to assume we've been assimilated by The Thing and should be burned alive by Kurt Russell," said a game design consultant in the US.

Our quickdraw tournament is tomorrow at 9PM! Whether you come to take part, or simply spectate, we would love to have you there!

We have implemented a more competitive dueling system and, due to the popularity of our last event, we have taken measures to increase performance!

Those people read Snow Crash and Neuromancer and went 'I want to be the soulless corporations that no one likes'. Of course it didn't work!

Punk is part of Cyberpunk, and punk is self expression. The real metaverse is endless self expression of any kind you want, not blando mcblandface without legs

When I see you “playing around with” ChatGPT “for fun” this is what I see you contributing to btw. It’s not cute, it’s not fun, it’s damaging. Just because you don’t personally see it doesn’t mean there’s no cost.

Quality performance art. Easy to parse, thematically relevant, kinda gross. Love it.
