Every time I see one of those posts where a parent has decided to offload anything it can about being a parent to AI it just makes me sad for that kid. why do you have kids if you aren't going to try to form actual relationships with them, to spend time with them, to parent them?

I usually design my business cards to be conversation-starters. But at after too many endless awkward discussions at recent events, I realized I needed a new type of card. The conversation-ender.
A stack of business cards reads in English and Korean: Generative AI is unethical, annoying, and anti-art. Anything it touches will fail, and be a mark of shame on human history. I do not wish to discuss this further.

To put this in perspective chestnut trees used to be dominant species in the United States. Billions of trees were killed by fungal blight and now fully grown America chestnuts are functionally extinct. There is no getting them back. Ever. All for a data center. www.gadgetreview.com/one-of-ameri...

Canada is refusing to issue ISBNs to books primarily generated with AI. This illustrates both the urgency of the problem of the growing flood of slop books, and also the toothlessness of addressing it on the honor system without there also being consequences for lying
Use of artificial intelligence
By registering with ISBN Canada, you declare that your book was created by a human author. You may use AI tools only for limited support tasks, such as brainstorming ideas, checking grammar, or formatting your book. You must not use AI to generate the text, create the artwork, or translate the book. ISBN Canada does not issue ISBNs for works whose content is primarily generated by AI. LAC is currently reviewing its policy regarding the use of AI content creation and our guidance is subject to change.

Something for Halloween or a gift idea for an animal lover. This wolf drawing is an original, just the size of a postcard. Available on Folksy... folksy.com/find/item/87... #Wolf #AnimalArt #OriginalArt #Drawing #ColourPencil #Artwork #TraditionalArtist #GiftIdeas #ShopIndy #NatureArt #bsnm
A postcard size drawing of a wolf howling at the moon.
Wolves were once numerous in Britain, but sadly now extinct. The species was progressively exterminated from Britain through a combination of deforestation and hunting.
An original art work, please note that the frame is not included.
Colour pencil on white acid free artist watercolour paper (postcard size).
Approximately 4 by 6 inches (10.16 x 15.24 cm) will fit into a standard 4 by 6 inch photo frame.

Did your dog recently judge me?
On 10/2 I was standing at the corner of Westlake and Thomas around 7:30am, waiting for the walk signal. You walked up with a Shiba on a leash.

Your dog looked at me, looked at my shoes, then back at my face and held eye contact for a full eight seconds before turning away with a sigh. You were very apologetic and said "Oh, he does that" but I was so shaken I crossed against the light just to get away.
