My response is always: "Only if everyone is as passive as you are."

Karla said it so well.

I (Ben) was thrilled to testify on the technical side, demonstrating with algorithms, real code and benchmarks on why data privacy is possible at scale. Sharing that room with Danny Lin, Jason George, and so so many talented and skilled creatives was a genuine honor.

If you're on Upwork, and want to opt out of their AI training, I found the setting by going to Account Settings > Profile Settings and then scroll down to "AI Preference".

Noah Williams (@bitcrush-art1.bsky.social) you really think you're going to get away with using my book covers in your portfolio, when I have literal timelapses of me painting them? I've reported you to artstation, but leaving this here so everyone knows you're a thief and a scammer.

Back in 2023 when I did a 45 minute rant on YT saying AI would steal your job, I was accused of 'fear mongering'. I would rather have been wrong, but…
"AI has been cited for 48,414 job cuts this year."
Wake up people. Reject AI now.

What’s really going on with AI and jobs?
Record-breaking layoff reports, Amazon's mass firings, and a slump in entry level employment. Is AI behind it all?

I recently did a Rebelle 8 review which has been well received, so thought I'd follow it up with a tutorial on getting started with Rebelle. Suitable for absolute beginners. youtu.be/qBpXDQknuQM

It's the 21st #InternationalArtistDay and would have been Picasso's birthday too.

Be kind to your artist friends and family today, and share one of their posts :)

When there's no electricity all day due to "planned maintenance", that's when you can really have a guilt-free siesta. Cat approves.
