This aired just the once in 1998 on the live SNL show for which McKay wrote it. It was effectively banned as it never aired again. I wonder why. MEDIA-OPOLY

the discourse on what jobs are acceptable to replace with generative AI reveals a lot about what we think of other people's jobs

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence lies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

“last fall I had this idea for a zine about Dilbert quitting his job and trying to learn to be happy and coming to terms with the fact that he’s trans actually” (posted 4/18/2022)

A sketch of Dilbert sitting at his desk, looking worn out. “There used to be a light inside of me,” he thinks, “when did I let this place snuff it out?”

Dilbert, now with slightly longer hair, eyeliner, and earrings, is putting on a scarf. After wrapping it around her neck, it springs up like her tie did in the comics. She smiles, her mouth visible for the first time.

I'm stumbling into a lot of frustration with creative-based hobby building tutorials on youtube. Hobbies that are more technical and practical tend to be super helpful, concise, and respectful. Everyone starts somewhere right? Creative tutorials: "Want to know why YOU SUCK ASS?"

So Animation industry, these are the type of people in positions of power? These are the type of people who are put in charge of hiring artist? This is disgusting from an art director on linked who's trynna tell me "Complaining that you’re not getting favors is asinine". This is where we're at hun?

"I was the Art Director at Cartoon Network for both Powerpuff Girls and Dexter’s Laboratory, and I held the same role on half a dozen top-level shows at Nickelodeon, Henson, and elsewhere. From experience, I can tell you this: if you’re not the best, you will get passed by. You have to ask yourself, “Am I truly as good as the best I’ve ever seen?” If the answer is no, then—hard truth—you’re out of luck.

So what’s left to do? Work hard to be an artist with something special enough to cause an art director to remember you."

Me: "As an industry veteran, don't you think thats a problem with the industry with having these unattainable high standards for artist just starting out? You are trying to get new grads and self taught artist to compare themselves to 10+ year pros.
The real problem is these studios not having the budget nor willing to train new talent to fit the mold. How exactly are artist going to be the best with no prior experience other than education?"

Him: "Adam T., as an art director my job is to maintain the highest level of quality and talent — not to hand out charity. That said, I’m actually known for hiring people with zero experience if their talent is undeniable.

The point is: the animation industry is more competitive than it has ever been. Complaining that you’re not getting favors is asinine. The only way to work in this industry today is to be good — and the only way to be good is to work hard and be brutally honest with yourself.

And look, we all see how thin the market is right now. Even really good people are out of work. Young artists need to understand they should have fallback skills — real, blue-collar skills. Learn to weld. Become an electrician. Whatever it is, have something solid to stand on."

1) Sandra used AI to write a report
2) Bill used AI to summarise the report
3) Bill used AI to write questions about the report
4) Sandra used AI to respond to the questions
5) Bill used AI to create a presentation about the report
6) Jane used AI to take notes from the presentation
7) Jane’s team used AI to summarise the notes she shared

No one wrote the report, no one ever read the report, no one understood the questions or the answers.

No business value was achieved

But but but AI adds business value

I think Instagram is my most harmful app. Even though there is so much specular art on there. I think it demotivates me more than it inspires me. Even before it got extra bad. I’ve reduced my time alot and its been good.
