it happens to us all at some point
Slightly edited scene from the Rugrats cartoon. Stu Pickles is stirring a pan and his wife Didi is standing in the doorway.

Panel 1:
"It's three o'clock in the morning. Why on earth are you trying to catch that fish?"

Panel 2:
A picture of the icon for Snowy Parexus from FFXIV has been overlaid on the pan.
"Because I've lost control of my life."

I've seen so many folks playing Aniimo lately, likely who aren't aware of the GenAI use in the game. Just a PSA that Aniimo DOES indeed include GenAI in both the promotional material and in game.

the gang 🔥🔥🔥 #ff7
A collage of the midgar gang except red13(sorry😔) 
With Aerith to the left looking into a distance, squinting her eyes. She’s wearing a crocheted pink dress with flower patterns, it’s a bit see through, on her legs she’s wearing boots with metal toes. 
In the center we have Tifa and Barrett with Marlene 
Tifa is on her stomach legs in the air laughing and having a grant old time. She’s wearing greenish baggy jeans and red converses. She’s wearing multiple belts stacked as a top. On her ands she’s has simple black fingerless gloves. 
Barret is wearing a sleeveless poofy industrial looking jacket in white and orange with a few blue ascents here and there. He’s squatting although you can’t see it due to the placement. He has his belts on his stomach and yellow-green pants. His nails are painted blue and there’s braids in his hair. 
Marlene is working on undoing some of them with a concentrating look on her face. 
And I just wanted cloud to look like a slut

Great point about the recent wave of AI devs saying "it's going to kill us all" - it lets Anthropic & OpenAI say "we're going to slow down development b/c of the risks" as their software becomes more iterative and the ceiling of improvements lower while costs rise. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Svwm...

"They're not misunderstanding the film; they're co-opting a message"
Screencap from the interview linked in the quoted post

Marlow Stern (the interviewer):  You have one of the most renowned replies in Twitter history. Elon Musk tweeted out, “Take the red pill,” then Ivanka Trump enthusiastically wrote, “Taken!” to him, and then you replied, “Fuck both of you.” I’m curious how you feel about the co-opting of “The Matrix” by those on the right who don’t really seem to understand its messaging.

Lilly Wachowski: I mean, I can’t sit in a room and explain the movie to every single person who watches it. Even if I did sit in a room with Elon Musk and Ivanka Trump — yikes — it doesn’t matter. They’re not misunderstanding the film; they’re co-opting a message. And that’s what fascists do: They co-opt the messages of progressives and use it to their benefit to confuse and obfuscate what is going on and the intention of their ideology. They do it with everything. They do it with Martin Luther King Jr. Look at how they’ve changed the idea of what antisemitism is.
