An illustration of a Great Serpent of Ronka from FFXIV. The illustration has decorative borders and numbers so it can be used in a card game called Triple Triad. It has shining eyes and is letting out a loud noise. "Screee!"

An image of a monstrous plant creature called a Morbol from Final Fantasy XIV. The creature is emitting a purple gas and it's wild tendrils flail as it moves across a dirt path. This illustration has a border and other UI elements to look like it is from a trading card game. Specifically a version of Triple Triad. A mini game from Final Fantasy XIV and Final Fantasy VIII. This will be a merch item available for preorder and included with the Light Unyielding TT Booster Pack.

I can only imagine how crazy it was when twin peaks was airing weekly! Lynch was waaay ahead of his time.

AI is already trolling us... for some unknown reason.

In all seriousness, this alone should be cause to pressure these companies to hire 'actual' translators, this is insane.

I think Monster Binder might be worth checking out. The binders do wear out faster than the ultra pro leather binders but I really like the pages and the cards feel like they are more secure in monster binder pages. I don't think they've done any AI slop stuff... but I could be wrong.

That's wild! I would love to see that profs RMP score. Telling art students that must ruffle feathers at the very least.

I mean the scope of what AI generates is pretty same-y from what I've seen. Inspiration and innovation off of those flat pieces is beyond diminishing returns.

So many civilians (non artists/creatives) use it all the time. If not for the casual 'google search' type question some fr use it as a chatting companion/therapist. Things have become very dystopian in such a short time.

BUT, the art community is pushing for human connection more than ever!
