#replacing us with robots

[professional-court-jester]

i’m genuinely of the belief that the megamind sequel/tv show was meant to premiere on nickelodeon in like 2011 alongside their other spinoff shows, but then got shelved after the movie flopped financially and has been sitting around in some archive gathering dust until peacock decided to release it as “new content.”

like, can we just look at the visual evidence alone?

he fits right in with this lineup. peacock, i’m onto you

#megamind #megamind sequel #megamind vs the doom syndicate #dreamworks #peacock #megamind fans grab your giant robots of world domination or whatever #why does megan mind look like he’s from a ps2 game 😭 #the fact that the animation is a major downgrade from a nearly 15 year old movie…… #the replacement of famous main voice actors with ppl trying to imitate them…… #they thought they could play us for fools. us! the megamind hive! #i’m cracking this case wide open baby #they did NOT just make this shit. this has to be recycled #new conspiracy theory dropped #my post #23

Are we gonna see you on Tumblr more often, since the ban for TikTok might be going out?

mmmmmmmm

I really hate thinking about it but i suppose yes.

I think ill have to focus on posting to youtube i guess....since i can still make monetizable money over there....and ill probably have to push my patreon more-

Hey maybe ill be able to make designs for my redbubble and- work on Tiny Tails more hah....ah....

yeah.....work.......that'll distract me from such a volatile ban of freedom of speech......

...

#it feels so fucking stupid to talk about #the fact that the goverment is taking away the only platform ive been given to talk freely and openly #the platform that has provided me with money to ease my homelife #the platform i was most comfortable on #i am scared of the future of our goverment #the goverment that takes away the ways we express ourselves #stripping us of jobs with robot replacements and laws that ban both body and speech #i do not want to live in a country that is run by fossils hellbent on controlling my every move after it preeched about freedom #how fucking dare they give us such bullshit false hope

[superbellsubways]

actually sick of all the fearmongering posts about how ai will eventually replace all forms of art when that wont be the case at all. art will never die. as long as humanity is still existing then Real art will always remain.

a certain website turning to shit doesn't mean its the end of the world for artists. there will always be alternatives, there will always be other places to grow a following on. don't let a couple websites turning to shit ruin your passion in art. Keep making things despite it all

#the fear of ai and robots replacing all of humanity has been a thing for decades and yea it is scary but #it would be impossible for it to kill all art and artists as long as people still have the passion for those things #dont let it get to you too much. there is still hope for us

tell me, what makes a human?

So I've Been Rotating Metal Sonic In My Head For Weeks

And I came up with something that's probably not the dumbest theory you've ever heard

So is this anything???????

#sonic the hedgehog #metal sonic #sonic theory #anyway this is stupid and took waaay to long for how low quality it is #so have this silly theory that I don’t know if it even works #but also like #Metal was totally made during the time Eggman was using animals in badniks #the ancients became chao right? And chao endlessly reincarnate right?? #so what if metal used to be an ancient but doesn't REALLY remember #but has just enough Awareness to “pilot” the suit effectively #and that's why Eggman didn't replace him when he failed like he did with all the other robot sonics #since no other chao were willing/ had the muscle memory #and a non- chao- powered mech simply didn't have the same level of in-battle decision making that Metal does #or something IDK it's like 3 AM here and I should go to bed #ALSO WHAT IS OMOCHAO?????

Vs. DJ Subatomic Supernova Heaven Studio Mix (v 0.1)

So, I remade my original Vs. DJSS mix in Heaven Studio. Actually, I've been sitting on this for a while, but tumblr just didn't want to upload the video for whatever reason.

Since HS doesn't have every game from this mix in it yet, I had to do some substitutions. Of note, Sick Beats was replaced mostly by Fireworks and Launch Party and I had to change the last game, but the original "joke" is still intact.

I didn't do too much with the visuals (except the very last part), and the skill star is messed up, so I'm not going to release the playable version until I get all that fixed. I'd really like there to be some cleaner transitions between games, and maybe even do some custom graphics. We'll see if either happens.

#gbunny edits #rhythm heaven #heaven studio #custom rhythm heaven remix #custom remix #no straight roads #nsr #vs. dj subatomic supernova #is it time? is sammy gonna have to finally learn how to use discord? #because i dunno where else to put my mixes except the heaven studio discord so maybe #but i'll get around to that when i actually make the mix look nice #i really just wanted to show y'all that i got it done #i dunno how many other of the nsr mixes i'm gonna remake though #almost every other mix highly depends on games that aren't in the studio yet #and can't be easily replaced to maintain the original themes #like i can't remake vs. 10/10 without any robot games #that was basically the whole gimmick of that mix #and every mix had something like that #i only did djss because almost every game from it was in the studio #and the one that wasn't (sick beats) wasn't *super* thematic to begin with and could be replaced with similarly paced games #although since the only backdrop available for rhythm rally is the cake it's a lot less apparent why that's a big part of the mix #unless you're already familiar with rhythm heaven #and know about cosmic rally

I understand that vocalsynth software is pretty hard to grasp for outsiders so I hope AI covers die a very death sometimes soon because I'm getting sick of takes conflating the two.

#vocalsynth voicebanks are recorded with the voice source's permission!!! #and the issue with ai covers isn't the 'roboticness' but with the fact that it was made without the voice provider's consent!!! #vocalsynth will never replace human singers but that was never the intention in the first place!!! #it's giving more tools for artists to play with!!! #it's like berating artists for using drum samples instead of real drums. a synth with a piano sound instead of real piano #some intentionally use the 'fake' one because that's the sound relevant to the music they want to make #otherwise people like harumaki gohan or 40mP or pinocchiop wouldn't bother using miku since they can sing #gonna go before i start tearing people apart with my psionic powers #also please do some reading on the topics you're about to have 'hot takes' on because oftentimes it's not hot #just some uninformed spiel people have heard and debunked dozens of times already. colder than hell frozen over #vocaposting

This the crack team of specialists I've hired to kill the cast of team fortress 3

#shitpost #team fortress 3 #Robirdo[1][2][3] (alternatively RoBirdo[4]) is a huge #robotic version of Birdo that appeared in the game Super Mario Advance #a remake of Super Mario Bros. 2. It replaces Mouser from the original game as the boss of World 3-3. Robirdo speaks with a robotic version #using a couple of her direct quotes during boss intro and upon being defeated (“How could you?!”). Its name is a portmanteau of “robot” and #The above text is from the Super Mario Wiki and is available under a Creative Commons license. Attribution must be provided through a list

are we gonna have to start making fake IDs in the opposite direction (posing as younger rather than older) to get data protections afforded to minors in some countries?????? because actually the state of the internet not only using all your data as it pleases but actively stealing your creative work is abysmal. ok google i am now eternally a teenager STOP TOUCHING MY DATA !!!

#fuck the internet #fuck ai everything #i have only ever heard of fake IDs adjusting age upward for more independence or to change ur identity #but now i think as this ai monster tries to eat everything we're going to have to #either have a professional clean all our data off the net and never touch a computer again and go back to typewriters and paper and pen #or get fake IDs and a bunch of complicated programs trying to protect users from the inevitavle death of the internet #i wonder if i posted fic written with paper and pen as images if ai could datascrape the given text? #i think for the time being i'm going to start trying to move my work to more secure means and maybe organize a protest #is 'stop bludgeoning the internet to death with your robots' a good slogan? #or something simple like 'theft isn't art. you cannot replace us' #idk comment ur thoughts #in truth if i thought i could have a viable career without online advertising right off the bat i'd swear off the internet #but as it stands the quickest way to network and gain clients and recognition is by advertising and being a real person online #i wish i could hire some online security expert or other to protect me :/

Wait, what do you mean about robo Raph? I think i missed that one

"There was a version of the movie where with Raph gone, Donnie busted out his pre-made robot he had of each one of his brothers, just in case something happened to them. Haha. The gag ended up manifesting itself as the tracker joke. These were my takes on the Raph robots. For those who are wondering the arm on the first design is what ended up being used as Leo’s prosthetic in the future."

yeah um. that...

Source

#the longer i look at it the more i can feel myself about to burst into tears #LIKE IT LOOKS SICK AS HELL BUT DUDE????? #RAPH FUCKING DIED *AND* HE GOT REPLACED?? THINK ABOUT THE IMPLICATIONS #imagine the amount of mental distress that leo and mikey wouldve felt when donnie whipped out a robotic replacement of their dead brother- #-cause that is FUCKKEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD UPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP #i can just imagine donnie like. going insane or something because of his grief like 'no guys look see!! hes still here!! hes still with us! #'hes not dead!!' #yk that type of stuff #hes trying his hardest to keep his act up but he knows hes gone and hes not fooling anyone and hes just trying to cope #denial actually #yeah thats what it is #rlly fucked up denial #taikko asks

I don’t want to hear a single other person say “ai generation is great for inspiration”

Go outside. Look with your eyes. And dare I say, touch grass.

Art is so much more beautiful when a human can be inspired by the world around them. Not what a computer can do.

#strymes chirps #ai is not art #fuck ai #robots will not replace us

new oc thoughts

#this is AU98 they are Cricket's replacement #my ocs #cricket #au98 #Cricket (previously AU68) was a robot used by police for protester dispersion + annihilation #however its machine learning was too good and it developed its own thoughts and defected from the police force #so the police wefe like 'fuck it we gotta do everything ourselves' and made a mecha vers that they control #my art #sketchbook

[bomblethebee]

It kinda really bothers me that the go to that people have when talking about the rise of ai art and writing is that they thought robots were supposed to be cleaning their offices or whatever. And that makes me sad as a janitor. I *love* my job. I wish I got paid more and had better benefits, but I genuinely love the work that I do. It makes me feel useful. It gives me purpose. And the people I work with and for are so appreciative of the work I do. Cleaning may be a miserable chore to you, but to me it's what gives me a job that even my autistic self can do and do happily.

Instead of robots replacing us, maybe pay us better and treat us well. I don't want to be replaced by a robot so I can pursue a "higher purpose". I want decent wages and respect like the rest of you.

#idk ive seen at least 2 or 3 posts saying the same thing #about how robots should be replacing us cleaners #and it really really bothered me

i know there's probably discourse about xvasynth that i haven't seen yet, but apparently in bethesda's latest attempt at making paid mods a thing they've explicitly stated that no ai generated content is allowed if you're going to participate in it, which is a rare bethesda W, unfortunately though they KEEP TRYING TO PUSH PAID MODS-

#nobody should be making money off of ai voice software period. #like for free mods it's one thing #but once you start monetarily replacing voice actors with software...no #i use a couple mods that use xvasynth and it's still far from perfect anyway lol. #like serana revamped. the ai voice lines are still noticeably robotic #ai voices vs obviously spliced dialogue audio: FIGHT #i think bethesda knows if they started profiting off of ai voices from their OWN vas they'd lose so much money as is

I made mettaton an 80’s rockstar via redrawing ai art someone generated (image below)

#digital art #ai art #redraw #undertale #digital painting #art #just for fun #fanart #don’t use ai art to replace artists #mettaton ex #mettaton fanart #robot #just something fun #ngl I hope that I did alright with his makeup XD #rockstar mettaton #rockstar

[texanmarcusdavenport]

I think Marcus is only a few years old at most, for the sole fact that he's around the same age as Adam, Bree, & Chase--and why build a replacement that doesn't look like the thing it's replacing?

Plus, if the theory that Douglas has built multiple Marcus' is true (I'm talking specifically about this post), this could mean that he's built a Marcus around the same age as the rats... only to replace it with an older version a few years later when it's inevitably destroyed.

#ALSO. i think it makes more sense if marcus is only a few years old. like idk he just doesnt give off the vibe of someone whose known #douglas for nearly 2 decades. but also the first few years after douglas faked his death he was clearly distraught & in no state to build #such an advanced AI. BUT as he pulled himself together & his vague hatred toward donald turned into an actual goal & then into an obsession #he realized he needed help (& also he was craving a replacement). thus. marcus! #marcus could also be a more advanced version of another robot that douglas built. #they're so fun to think abt. wish the show had given us any details whatsoever <3 #douglas davenport #marcus davenport #lab rats #lab rats disney xd
