First year of art school, teacher asked us to draw a bicycle from memory. My friend attached the pedals on the front wheel and we all had a good laugh, realising none of us had done a good job at it. References are crucial

You absolutely cannot separate the artist and the art without contributing to the persecution of trans people. Boycott everything Potter.
Advocate: J.K. Rowling uses Harry Potter wealth to fund anti-transgender organization.

This kid is awesome, actual hero.
“He was tearing them up and just shoving them in as fast as he could,” said Ali Martinez, a witness to the event. “Like when you see people in a hot-dog eating contest.” According to the police estimate, around 57 of the 160 images on the wall were destroyed.

Love this from Guillermo del Toro
“Be kind, be involved, believe in your art,” he said. “At a time when people tell you art is not important, that is always the prelude to fascism. When they tell you it doesn’t matter, when they tell you a fucking app can do art you say, if it’s that important, why the fuck do they want it so bad? The answer is because they think they can debase everything that makes us a little better, a little more human. And that, in my book, and in my life, includes monsters.”

The "Frieren angle" thing, apart from just being delightful, also completely demolishes the pathetic "AI is democratising art" argument. Someone struggling with a difficult drawing received advice from hundreds of strangers who just wanted to help them improve their art.

Watterson n'a pas fait beaucoup de one-panels, mais ils ont toujours aussi bons que le reste de ses strips.
Calvin et Hobbes (un petit garçon et son tigre en peluche) regardent tristement une souche d'arbre entourée de détritus.
Calvin dit: "Parfois je me dis que la meilleure preuve qu'il existe une vie intelligente ailleurs dans l'Univers, c'est que personne n'a tenté de nous contacter."

Morning thoughts about "AI". Where do we go from here?
Thoughts about “AI”
Yes it’s:
The slop
The theft
The brainrot
The loss of work
The crumbling of creator rights
The destroying of the environment and infrastructure 
But it's also the destroying of trust in anything that you’re not seeing with your own eyes right in front of you. 

Wonder now turned to the narrowing of eyes in immediate scepticism seeing something magical. 
Questioning the realness of everything from a stilted written apology to profound works by students in school.
It feels like a slow poison to creativity and humanity at large.
