Well they were already well in the process of moving as much software to the cloud as they could before LLMs, this is just one more reason to do so... But some may end up screwed, the rich and powerful don't always get their way! (Against other rich & powerful, like OpenAI) See Yahoo, Nokia...

Isn't decompiling Adobe basically stealing from them tho? But even without decompiling, adding features to Krita or Gimp should just be so much easier now. (I was already using Krita & Gimp before LLMs tho)

I think it still sounds reasonable! We're approaching a point where creating software can now be very cheap and easy, which is nice, lots of people are creating fun thigs!

The newest models are definitely getting better! They're very good at coding, and widely used there. They also give decent and cheap legal and medical advice (and other topics, like language learning). Tho sure, journalists or lawyers etc. using them to slack at their job deserve mockery.

Well the thing is, Altman's tech works, and quite well, the people buying are (usually) not getting scammed. The problems are: - flooding the world with slop - over-reliance on it makes skills shrink - making ASI, which would be an extinction risk

Bottom leg was quite bad, so then spent a bunch of time studying photos of lizards climbing, but eh, no time to make a new one

Yes, that's right, in French, spelling -> pronunciation is straightforward enough if you know the rules, but not the other way around. English, both are kinda tricky (e.g. through, though, tough, cough).

Those are all excellent!

Emile @emiledraws.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
French dude here, warning, spoken French is kinda hard tho, in that we attach a bunch of sounds together (liaisons) and don't pronounce a bunch of letters. Still, triangulating between English and Spanish should help! I can indeed also get the gist of Spanish when reading it.

FWIW I don't think you need to call out anybody, I don't think that really helps much, it just drives up polarisation and general negativity

It still seems better at meeting people's basic needs than pretty much any system in history, especially when you start looking over 100 years ago!

Nice analysis. Yeah I've been annoyed with magic focusing on characters rather than world-building since the Weatherlight days, and UB is that on steroids.

So as someone who was a big Lorwyn fan, I should buy some then ?

Come on you draw pretty damn well, I put you two in the same tier. I've tried to emulate your style quite a few times! All I need is 20 more years of practice! And 20 years ago that was your first, I mighteven have put drawings online before you, on ElfWood...

Well and/or avoid shitty services that stuff ads down your throat, and pay for good services when available (also a better revenue model for creators!) I pay for youtube and never see ads (I LOATHE them), it's fine!

Congrats! And on my side, over a month and I've still been drawing (not quite an hour tho) every day.

Also, for art, music, stories, people care about whether it genuinely comes from a human. For the code that creates a popup when they click on the checkout button? I don't think they care who wrote it as long as it works.

Same as why I use a dishwasher - it's quicker and does a decent job. It sucks at some stuff, and some stuff I'd rather do myself, but, say, how to deserialize yaml from an AWS bucket in typescript? Rather than spending an hour tediously looking up the APIs & libs, the bot can do it for me.

Not sure this is true, I like coding but still use it for coding, and I think this feeling is pretty wideapread among coders, whereas almost no artist feels like that.
