The bill has been opened to feedback. Rather than dooming about the proposal, you can tell them exactly how you feel about the act here. ec.europa.eu/info/law/bet... With how much of an uphill battle Chat Control is having, you should never assume it's worthless to fight these draconian bills.

No, I'm sorry but we are not doing this "widely agreed upon bad movies were actually good," discourse for 6 of the worst movies ever made by humans.

I'm deeply saddened to read of Peter Cullen passing Like many of my generation (& countless since), his Optimus Prime *was* my childhood, showcasing a warmth beyond just being a battle-hardened hero that meant everything to me Thank you for all you gave us, Peter RIP

This headline is misleading by the way. No AI-Generated made it into the art book the article is talking about, nor did it even “inspire” the actual film’s visual style. A few freelance “artists” used Gen-AI for some background “art”, but they were ultimately rejected.
A Reddit user asked a publisher about a specific background piece, saying
“I really don’t want to be rude, but I gotta ask about this page.”

The publisher in question responded with
“Not rude at all.
As far as I know, this isn't AI. I work on the publishing side of things, Comics, and get the art assets from Studios.
These assets come from the full Visual Development team, wish is comprised of both staff and freelance artists. I was told that some of the freelancers had used Al in their work to populate backgrounds, and any art that was flashed for Al use was either not provided for me to layout in the book, or was removed. Ryan Meinerding himself
went over every page to check for Al, as he was very strict about it.
I'm not saying it isn't impossible that something slipped through, but this looks more like Photoshops auto-fill again. That wonky taxi is more likely than removing something between two taxis, and Adobe pulled in the closest pixels to fill it. Probably trying to remove a watermark, as a lot of freelancers will just take pic they see if the internet, stitch it together, and paint on top of it. Same thing with the fire escapes, that looks like a repeated copy paste that you're
never meant to really even look that closely at. Whatever the final result is here, it's ultimately on the artist, not Disney/Marvel. Disney/Marvel won't publish anything with Al because you don't legally own anything made with AI, and contracts stipulate it must be "your wholly original work". So anyone taking shortcuts in their art, here or otherwise, is making that decision personally. It isn't a mandate from the company.l

Here we see a meme in it's natural habitat. Most creatures like this are only seen in captivity, where their appearance is drastically changed from what you see here. Sadly, free-range memes are becoming rarer by the day, as content farms continue to exploit these beautiful creatures.

Thanks @tranterminus.bsky.social for pointing this out. I feel I should spread the word that this Bluesky Licence trend was created by AI. There's no shame in being duped, but you should probably delete them and spread the word to others (don't tell people off just let them know)

Might as well openly state my opinion on this reveal: I don’t hate it. In fact, I think I kinda like what I’m seeing so far. I’ll admit, I was put off by the art style at first too. But after a while, I’ve really warmed up to it.
