He llegado a un punto de mi vida dónde sólo veo como todos corren, mientras yo sólo estoy existiendo. He llegado a mi punto más bajo dónde sin importar a que dirección vaya, ya no proceso sí sentirme triste o feliz por ello. Estoy en ese punto de mi vida dónde sea lo que sea que suceda, no importa, simplemente lo viviré y dejaré que pase.
- Genay.

I know that there's a high chance that 'pro GenAI' folk who come on my blog are probably on the wind up, but it will honestly wreck havoc throughout the entertainment industry. But not really for the reason you think.
We're going to see the limits of this technology reached pretty soon, the cost of resources for the CPU/GPUs required, and the cost of energy will spike and this will bleed AI companies dry. Most of them are hemorrhaging money, only propped up by the silicon valley venture capitalists and tech megacorps that have invested in them. They will expect a return at some point and producing 60 seconds of nonsense footage isn't going to turn this into a trillion dollar industry.
Where this hits the entertainment industry, as we've already seen with games industry layoffs, is that there's a whole bunch of generational talent being purged because these companies are swept up in techbro hype.
Making whole teams and studios of talented people redundant and injecting a new work culture tied to GenAI will hit the entertainment industry massively. When the realisation hits that GenAI isn't going to replace human creativity, and there's no cultivated talent in the industry, we'll be hitting the reset button.
I do genuinely wonder what these techbro types will do when we hit 2027 and the quality of games has dipped massively. Or maybe they just don't care.

Remember kids, if you use Adobe and don't want them stealing your work, turn that setting Off under Privacy. It's On by default. They boast about using their own library for their gen/a/i stuff, when in reality they pull from every user who's ever touched Creative Cloud.

Ranting today because of the Illustrator update with a vector version of their gen/a/i. The ads are bad, but everywhere, making it seem like some magical program. Recently found some a/i work that looked eerily like my own, so I'm very sore about this today.
Also why not poison the well while you're at it and Glaze the images you post online.

hey just wanted to say that if that tumblr partnership with midjourney thing goes through, I will stop posting here entirely. I'm also considering deleting my blog. I know this doesn't remove my data from the site due to reblogs. I also understand that my data exists outside of this site too, and that it can't really be deleted. I know how this shit works. it's the principle of the thing. I deleted my instagram and deviantart accounts for the same reason. I'd say find me on bluesky, but it's only a matter of time before they pull that shit too. the era of the free and open internet is coming to an end.

sites selling my data to advertisers: sucks, annoying, but at least i can adblock to prevent the advertisers from profiting from me more or whatever. a nuisance at worst
sites selling my online presence to fucking GenAI companies: Revolting, disgusting, makes me sick to my fucking stomach. why does the stupid fucking idiot CEO get millions of dollars so this disgusting fucking thing can regurgitate *my work* *my photos* *my art* *My Fucking Voice*

it's so funny how people who claim to care about workers' rights sneer at the idea of artists getting paid for drawing ridiculous/absurd ideas
rights for workers until it's time for them to get paid for drawing gay sex cats, then suddenly their jobs should get automated and "who cares, it's just a drawing of cats spelling out gay sex"

i think the palworld thing is really interesting- because so far, there's no proof that the company used AI to make their mons
the real reason everyone is up in arms is because of the plagiarism thing, and like, idk, genuinely, do we care?
like does it matter?
it's game freak, they'll walk it off. people who like pokemons like them mostly out of brand loyalty. they like pokemons because they're pokemons, they don't just like cute monsters.
i'm sorry but i think it's fine if you want to make a game where legally distinct pikachu kills people with a 1911. i don't actually give a shit. like litterally why are we defending Pokemons, they're fine, they can shoot lasers and whatnot.
plagiarism matters when people are harmed. game freak is not people, and frankly, I don't think any of this will harm them.
one thing you can and should call palworld, however, is derivative. it lacks any sort of imagination. wether AI or not was used matters little: it's definitely just trying to make Content with a snappy concept and that's it. it's not worth your time not because of the tools that MIGHT have been used to make it, but because even if each of these mons had been painstakingly designed by hand with a graphite pencil, they'd still just be trying to ape pokemons. the intent would be the same regardless.
Pocketpair isn't the next Sommerton.

Yo tampoco lo entiendo, tampoco entiendo esta felicidad efímera que viene a mi antes que todo empiece a desmoronarse, como una advertencia. Tampoco entiendo porque la tristeza abarca mi vida como sí no hubiese espacio para algo más, llevándome sólo al borde de mi decadencia.

She's finished! I'm going to judge this one... Not bad for a first try.
It's very common for me to visualize an idea in my head and think "that's cool, wish I could do it" but rarely do I have all the skills to make it so. 2023 was the year I decided not to let that stop me any more! I spent three months learning some inking techniques, sketched dozens of practice portraits, and learned the basics of working with water colors to produce this embroidered portrait of Karlach.
She may not be perfect but she's unique and she's mine and I love her ❤️‍🔥
