Similar to how voice AI use has been suggested; for 'scratch'
or reference.
I know many actors, myself among them, who got jobs from the scratch work.
Every example of AI being used I've seen is cutting away a job that someone coming up would take or get on their journey.
Maybe that's the point.

The thing thats so insidious about using AI this way is that one of the main ways artists get hired are studios looking for art references and they find us and reach out.
This is removing a major avenue to get work if they can just generate nameless derivations of our ideas.

I could fight over an AI to generate shitty images, or just sketch ideas on a cheap Android tablet.
It's not hard to sketch compositions and then use that in your projects.

I feel that "slop" has lost its impact this year due to how frequently it's being used...

I'm merely waiting for Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory to release on Steam before I delete my Epic account.
I don't care HOW many free games you give me, I'm NOT using the Epic Games Store launcher.

didn't you literally announce at his funeral that you forgive his actual murderer?
why can you forgive him but not us? and if you CAN forgive us, then what's the issue?

Epic pays for licensing fees for the games they give away for free as promotions. Which means even if YOU aren't paying for it, you're giving money to JK Rowling to harm transgender people AND elevating her stature by giving her franchise higher numbers.

Seeing people shit on The Game Awards serves as a good reminder that award shows like this should not matter to us too much, if at all.

I refuse to even pirate this game. That's how much disdain I have for TERFling. So of course I won't grab this from EGS.

Biden, and ESPECIALLY Orange Shitstain, have shown why we need age limits AND term limits, not to mention other restrictions for holding an elected office.
The only conclusion I can draw from this is that there is something physically wrong and cognitively wrong with Trump, he knows it, and he's angry and frightened.
Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.
