Just so it's clear. It's not allowing AI because it's trying to create a clean dataset for training AI. It's not because any of the involved parties actually care about human created art.

Demons can lie to you. You have to rebuke them categorically, rather than fold when they say the right words.
Vine is being rebooted under the name diVine, with funding from Twitter’s former CEO Jack Dorsey.

The app plans to feature more than 10,000 previously archived Vines and does not allow AI-generated content.

I’ve learned over the years that if someone is blocking the road like this,

Don’t stop.

Called this one in. Probably just kids being kids but the moment you get out.. you never know what could come next.

Democrats voted to cry about “socialism” before they voted to impeach trump for shouting they should be executed.
BREAKING: The House of Representatives voted 285–98 in favor of a resolution condemning socialism.

Eighty-six Democrats joined Republicans in supporting the measure, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries.

Elon Musk is very explicitly altering the X algorithm to show people content that aligns with his far-right worldview.

If you're still posting there and think you can win hearts and minds or something, this is what you're up against. You're never going to win a rigged game.

Furries, do NOT buy this game if it is using any of that generative ai BS. Even if it is "just a little". This is how they slowly add it in and make it more accepted, and they WANT that. THAT is their plan.
