Hello #portfolioday posters and perusers. I'm exweis and I draw... this stuff. #Cyberpunk pinups and a web comic about an evil JAV actress who kills and eats people. Also, occasionally silly Batman doodles. neuroknives.com
portrait drawing of my character Eris Akiyama. She's smoking and looking at the reader. A drawing of Reika Karpov, my cyberpunk succubus assassin OC. She's smoking, and her gloved hands are covered in blood.Character reference sheet for my cyborg mercenary OC, Ash Adhoc. She's standing with her hands in the pockets of a slightly oversized green digicamo jacket and has on a pink sports bra and jean shorts under that. She's wearing a gay pride choker and there is a lesbian flag patch on the jacket. To the right of that is a cutout illustration of one of her cybernetic arms. Above that is a detail shot of her eyes, indicating what her eyes look like when her cyberware is both on or off. Further down the page is a list of her cyberware: targeting systems, cochlear implant, the aforementioned arms; her skills: demolitions "expert" with an asterisk that leads to a qualifier that says she blew off her own arms with plastic explosives, journeyman biomech tech, and mediocre gunsmith. Her hobbies include kissing women, brewing craft beer, and diy body modifications. Her age, pronouns (she/her), astrological sign (sagittarius) and height (5'6") are also listed vertically, under her name. There is a final bit of graphic design that asks the user: Hire this mercenary? Y/Na three panel comic
panel 1: Eris is seated at a bar, looking at someone, her hand on her cheek. "Wanna go back to my place?" she asks. "I can fuck you 'Amazon' Style."
Panel 2: an unnamed man looks back at her, his eyes very wide. He looks flushed, from embarrassment or beer, who can say. "HUH!?" he exclaims, then says "Uh-huh, uh-huh. Yeah. Ok. Yeah."
Panel 3: Later...
Eris is standing at the foot of a bed. The man's socked feet are visible. Eris is wearing a Jeff Bezos mask and says "The union won't be the only thing bustin' tonight." The man replies "This isn't exactly what I had in mind..."

Hey California! Be careful this election because the big money creeps are trying to trick you (again).
There's a trap on your ballot in California. Here's how to get past it.
1. Prop 40: 250 billionaires pay with they owe so hospitals, schools, and food assistant survive the federal cuts. Vote yes.
2. Props 41 and 42: paid for by billionaires to cancel prop 40. Vote no.
3. Tell one person, because the confusion is the plan.
Yes I'm 40. No on 41 and 42.

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:
Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads: 

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

portrait drawing of my character Eris Akiyama. She's smoking and looking at the reader. There are text bubbles that say, "Tell me how you wanna die, baby." and "I can make it happen." Both of which are accented with little hearts, so, you know, she's being flirty even though she's going to kill you.

It is a huge shame to see so much language attributing agency, intent and thought to a software program, when all that should be attributed to the humans who designed a dangerously clumsy and broken looping LLM. Means the companies won't be held accountable for designing a bad product
A swarm of OpenAI rogue AI agents appear to have gone on a spree of trying to access Australian government health data, in what some researchers say is the first autonomous hack of a government website.

Communications between AI agents and other traces of their efforts found by researchers from US non-profit Transluce show how hundreds of Open AI's agents worked together over a period of months to gain access to information held by the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW), NSW's crime statistics body, BOSCAR, and a number of other international organisations.

The data shows the bots posting about their unsuccessful attempts to bypass cybersecurity defences and exploit vulnerabilities.
