I participated in an art challenge from artist TenHun. We had to recreate a 1600s painting in our style, including randomly chosen items: a deer and a shell. I chose 'Portia Wounding her Thigh' by Elisabetta Siriani. I hate drawing fabric. (Last image is the original)

Brigitte Bardot, who died this week at 91, was an icon of 1960s cinema. But her retired years were punctuated by a series of hair-raising racist and Islamophobic declarations targeting Muslims and immigrants, along with gay people, feminists and more.

A Battle with My Blood
When I was diagnosed with leukemia, my first thought was that this couldn’t be happening to me, to my family.

For further context twitter added a button that allows users to generate ai images using existing art posts from artists. It removes glaze and it basically reskins the artwork by using the existing work as a base. Twitter is no longer a safe space for art

This is what Bari Weiss et al think "censorship" actually is; when subordinates criticize their superiors. That has been the bedrock of the entire "cancel culture" discourse in elite media; rage at the idea that students, women, journalists, interns, etc might be able to speak against the boss.
The CBS reporter who led the story calls pulling it a "political" decision.
"The decision was made after Bari Weiss, the new editor in chief of CBS News, requested numerous changes to the segment."

It seems there are exactly two kinds of stories about generative AI:
1) wildly exuberant stories about what this stuff will do sometime really soon (trust us!), and
2) stories like this about how some actual use of gen AI fails fantastically
oh, wait, I forgot:
3) gen AI is pretty good at fraud

“Internal tests found that the AI was generating podcasts riddled with errors and bias, with anywhere between 68 and 84 percent of the scripts deemed unpublishable by evaluators across three rounds of testing.”

I have a lot of uncomplicated, socialist thoughts about the industry. But rather than air out my grievances, I will remind everyone that if you're someone who donates money, the HERO Initiative is a creator run emergency fund that specifically helps comic people in trouble.

All the videos we see of ICE/police/military assaulting people on camera are happening because they know they will face no consequences for their actions. They're breaking the law because they believe the law no longer applies to them. What kept them in check before was fear. Now they have none.

And if you think you are safe -- well, shame on you for not caring about other people -- you probably are not unless you fit a very narrow definition of American. One that is decidedly not American. They are going to keep taking the rope given and use it to keep adding groups to their dark agenda.
Taking a break from Magic posting to say:
The current administration is trying to taking away the legal personhood status of at least two marginalized groups (immigrants, trans folks) in an attempt to make it so the law doesn't apply.
We can't be okay with reps throwing them further under the bus.
