this is a great point by @kylietcheung.bsky.social “it’s too complicated” hmm where else have i heard that as an excuse to shut down discussions of systemic violence recently!

The Cornell rape case is the product of a nationwide crisis long swept under the rug—by administrators who are all too eager to do nothing under the guise of neutrality, or the mythology that adjudicating consent is too 'complicated.' There is a term for this used by sexual violence experts: orchestrated complexity.

i need to break myself back out of my unintentional listening to music hiatus again happy bandcamp friday!!!!

i find it to be frustrating when artists, ostensibly deep thinkers, feel the emotional urge to slap the alphabet poster every day to remind us all what art is

as someone who *does* blab about AI on the reg, i actually have this same thought. like at best it can feel warranted or at least emotionally validating, but at worst it feels really condescending to everyone reading it

one of yoko shimomura’s best!!

omg one of the best osts too!! excited ur playing this

I’m looking for work! 👁️👁️ I’m looking for storyboarding or revisionist positions, but I’m also open to work in games! I’m available immediately - I’m fast, funny, and friendly, & I’d love to work with you! Help me feed my cats, they won’t stop screaming!

A little cartoon drawing of me saying “Caitlin Rose Boyle is looking for work! Storyboards and revisions! Six+ years of experience at Nickelodeon, Netflix, and DTVA, with freelance for Titmouse, Cartoon Network, and Pixar.” My cats are drawn off to the side screaming “We’re so HUNGRY!”

every tech bro with art flavored dreams will get to live in the cool world they helped to create where original concepts and ideas are met with no lasting support. their world will never allow them the cultural capital they crave

050

that’s why the only examples of this we can point to are the rare breakaway creations that do the rounds on tiktok as a “what if i told u this is AI art” piece of reactable content

140

anyone who is genuinely trying to use this tech for something worthwhile has to fight against the only contingent of people who will listen to them

130

the kicker is that, when people actually use these tools to make something one could entertain as real and artistic, the primary audience for AI art is gonna look the other way because it will ask more of them than they’ll ever be willing to put into it as consumers

1130

that early cool jazz is so sick… miles in that era & like claude thornhill who was a huge touchstone for those arrangements.. both so special

i keep talking abt this stuff cause i think the line’s gonna get blurred more, and i need yall to remember what’s important

1130

and the people who have something to say aren’t touching it

1211

regardless of how convincing the output is, ai art is locked from being worthwhile cause it’s made by people with nothing to say

2353

i believe in restorative justice ofc but that ball is in your court until you can really and publicly get to the heart of what compelled you to betray so much adoration and good will toward you from the GC fanbase

now that you’ve got your foot in the door, i think the real work that needs to be done is addressing the inconsistency in your own communications within our community. feelings on AI music aside, i think people are the most hurt by the lying and irresponsibility you’ve displayed

i got somethin that could fit in that 54mb of unused space 😏

Many games for the GameCube use only a fraction of the storage capacity of the disc. I have analyzed the data to determine what the maximum number of retail Mario games that can fit on a single disc would be, creating the Luigi & Wario + Puzzle + Rhythm Maximum Value Pack.

$A GameCube disc has a storage capacity of 1.46 gigabytes. Many Mario games use only a fraction of that storage. Below is the optimal distribution of the smallest Mario-related games on the system to fit 6 entire retail games on a single disc. Unused space 54 MB Luigi's Mansion 186 MB DDR Mario Mix 264 MB Wario World 257 MB Donkey Konga 2 312 MB Donkey Konga 250 MB Please note that this pie chart is for data visualization only. If the games were in fact put on one disc, the data would be arranged in rings, not in slices. Concept for post based on an idea from a comment by @vinchvolt.bsky.social$

it’s one thing for us, we’re adults we know better, we were raised in a different world and can contextualize this stuff differently (even if there’s a ton of critique and discussion to be had about it). but sheesh, robbing kids of something so enriching is absolutely vile

0212

the idea printing machine sure does seem like something that will render the whole premise of Being An Artist, pointless for the most impressionable among us. why bother devoting time to working toward a passion when mom and dad can just use the idea printing machine? let me use the machine next

1121

im not even gonna make the argument that forcing myself to learn piano (with and without help) and learn to copy music by ear made me a more skilled artist (it did), it genuinely made me want to be a musician. it made me interested in making art to begin with

1120

it’s also pre-massaging the sentiment by disguising itself as ~something done out of love for your child~ it’s just the give a man a fish lesson. we have a parable for this already lol

1140

this shit sucks!! we should be showing kids the magic of the process. it’s already bad that people in our generation are forgoing the friction of creation for more products, but teaching that lesson to kids is nasty

yeah i guess for stuff like this i love when it’s shared and i’ve put in some effort lately in sharing the tools i use.. but i can understand why disclosing something like AI usage wld take more immediate precedent than a full breakdown. wld b great if all of the above was standard tho

i think abt this a lot as someone who cares abt artist crediting and lives in a world where a lot of standards for that are thrown out the window (referring to video game music). i catch myself trying to psychoanalyze the reasoning behind it and i still don’t have a great rationale to point to

120

(disclaimer: i dont gaf if u bully billionaires)

0120

this shit matters so please be cool

unfortunately, some of this issue of incentive falls on ai critics like us. i hate to be that person but if i see u threatening folks and enacting highschool-bully-tier behavior in a serious context, that’s anti-social as well and i don’t want you to speak for me or our community

if ur familiar enough with the sentiment around AI, but you’re so scared of the backlash you start lying? don’t use it in the first place. i don’t want my peers, ppl i stand shoulder to shoulder with as creatives making that kind of bargain with their output

1151

that’s why i talk about the real human choices behind the tool. the tools themselves are compromised but everything i need to know about how to feel about the usage of them within our communities comes from the person making that choice. be honest, show up to the convo. literal least u can do imo

i don’t think that choice alone should be enough to warrant anyone being fully ostracized from their communities or worse, threatened with violence. but i also really dislike that limited grace i’ve spoken of being weaponized to cover for anti-social behavior like deceit in broad daylight

2130

im sure the answer boils down to making money, which i have very specific and limited grace to give to: it’s fucked out here to be a creative and make ends meet. just really sad that this many people are choosing to lie to their audiences and how many ppl defend that
