The most accurate term for LLMs remains "sparkling autocorrect", not anything "intelligence". Don't let tech-illiterate people and shysters convince you of absolute nonsense.

"Space. Time. Thought. These are the surviving logs of the starship Ascender. Its mission: to explore consciousness; to seek out new planes of existence; to go where no mind has gone before!" Fanfic about a taskforce of telepaths from various species assigned to intercept pre-ascension individuals.

A hero's final rest. #lego #bionicle

A colourful drawing of line art and watercolour of bionicle Toa Tahu. The Red Orange one. Resting against a tree in the woods. At his feet are the 5 masks of all the other original bionicles heroes. A Spot of sunshine comes through the trees. Wide enough to form a circle in the shape of Tahu and ailluminate him in the otherwise dark forest. Toa is covvered in rust and dust. Leafs spout from his shoulders and mask. His plating looks old and battered. One may wonder how long he has been here.

Reading an article about AI agents and just struck by how much this technology is made by, made for, used by, is foundationally based on the assumptions of "manager brain" or "owners". You never do things, you have others do things for you, which now counts as yours. Delusional way to see the world.

Pompeii is a UNESCO world heritage site not because it was remarkable in its prime, but because it survived to our era untouched: one moment, preserved for all time. But future generations won't know what OUR world was like unless we do the same. This is why we MUST bury Toronto with a volcano

Being a cartoonist sometimes implies taking time off your graphic novel just so you can draw something else for once. Retro sci-fi/cassette futurism, especially of the anime kind, is very nostalgic to me.

An illustration all in purples and yellows. A woman in mechanic attire is sitting inside a capsule-style bedroom, lit by the sun through a small window. She's having dumplings. The setting is retro sci-fi or cassette futurism, with lots of pipes and analog screens decorating the surroundings. The illustration is very cluttered visually.

Andor started 4 years ago today. And it managed to make me a fan all over again. Even a TIE Fighter becomes a formidable force there. A return to their roots, since the sound of the TIE is inspired by WW2 dive bombers, which had an artificially created siren sound. The aim was to terrify people.
