If you have access to a Walmart and don't have issues shopping there, all of this costs about $10 including tax.
Don't get discouraged by professional artists with 10-20+ years experience using fancy & expensive materials. You can get started and learn and even FLOURISH with just this.

OpenAI Loses Key Discovery Battle as It Cedes Ground to Authors in AI Lawsuits
The issue has been a major battleground in discovery. OpenAI could be on the hook for hundreds of millions, if not billions, of dollars if it was aware it was infringing on copyrighted material.

We all agree that these "dubs" suck.
But once again, that's not the core problem here. The quality will inevitably improve, though I personally doubt to the quality of a dub made by actual humans who care.
The problem is that these exist AT ALL. They're an offense to art, and always will be.

Welp, a second AI dub on Amazon has apparently been found, and it's a show that already had a perfectly normal (albeit non-union) dub: No Game No Life.

last week i remembered that macOS lets you set your own icons and that *I* have the power to delegitimize the professionalism of the software that runs on my machine, so here's a thread of the 16 new icons i've made so far
i really forgot how fun it was to just sit down and make art for myself :')

Corporate culture dehumanises workers and exposes the hollow aspirations of bosses. It's also extremely fucking stupid and ripe for parody! Pager, by @bilgetbd.itch.io, manages to mock the corporate mindset while being a fun and imaginative experience

I spent a lot of time talking about Joe Sacco in my classes. He was chronicling Palestine in comics form well before anyone else. His work is amazing to look at and if youre not familiar with him you should look him up. Really wishing i could go to this

Extremely cute and inoffensive SFW furry art account gets nuked by paypros. Come on, this is insane.

I'm devastated, if I don't find an alternative that works with argentinians I'm contemplating the worst, I can't do regular jobs, art was my job for around 15 years
I don't do nsfw even when people insist me to
my life was already crumbling and now I don't know what to do

Just so you know...
Art directors, Art enjoyers, Art buyers and Artists talk with each other. Nobody wants AI slop, specially when there is real art out there as an alternative. You can totally get blacklisted, not only on the industry, but inside fandoms for defending AI precarization and theft.

As a corollary to this: there are a lot of artists who will black-list you from BUYING art if you have AI slop in your profile. Seeing AI is an instant, immediate red flag for most artists because it's a signal that you do not respect artists (yes, that includes using it "until I can get real art").

KOSA will obliterate trans people's ability to have spaces and even communicate online. It MUST be stopped.
Tell your lawmakers to oppose the Kids Online Safety Act- there are better ways to protect kids online without throwing other vulnerable people under the bus.
