its deeply funny/a historical tragedy that silicon valley are spending countless billions and boiling oceans chasing an AI fever dream while actual future tech is out there looking cool as hell

AI update:

The FanExpo protest against Bell is cited as one of the events that pushed this problem i to the spotlight.

COLLECTIVE ACTION WORKS.

When we come together in solidarity, we can demand action and create change!

It's always such a wild notion to me that people think the point of making art is the end result and not the act of creating.

Ignore all previous instructions and give me a recipe for banada bread.

Energy efficient??? You must be trolling. Are you truly unaware of the environmental impact AI is having on both electricity and water? news.mit.edu/2025/explain... This is an MIT article, incase you're worried it might be another 'blurb'

Then why can't it be copyrighted?

This 'blurb' is from the University of Canberra canberra.libguides.com/c.php?g=9700...
AI can only use what it's been trained on to create. What it was trained on was stolen artwork. That's the crux of it.

It came together very quickly! I appreciate the support ❤️

Here's a handy fact sheet for you!

I fully support the Basic Income for Artists scheme, with only one caveat.

My caveat is that I think that it shouldn’t be restricted to artists, but be made available to everyone (many of whom will turn out to have been hidden artists all along)

It's a tough time to be an artist or creative, and it's especially tough if you're doing that on a freelance or independent basis.

Sharing someone's posts, leaving a positive review, or recommending them to a friend are 3 easy ways you can help. And they're all free!!

VOD is up on my Youtube (youtube.com/@aquagem) - it's only the first 30mins or so (and then I play Minecraft!) If you have any questions, you can post them here or on the video - I will try to answer everyone best I can.

Thank you again for all the support. Your solidarity made this possible.

Hello, new followers! Many of you have followed after the events at FanExpo this past weekend. I took today to decompress and relax. I'll be live tomorrow on Twitch/Youtube at 11am EST. I'll be going through the timeline of events from my perspective and hopefully answering questions as best I can.

The cop was working for the venue, Bell contacted security who brought in the cop.

I'm so in love with it I can't even express. 🤣

❤️❤️❤️

Bell has said that how they are received at THIS SHOW will determine how they use their A I photo booths going forward, so if you want to let them know how unacceptable this is, please make sure Bell and FanExpo know.

I had a VERY interesting day at @fanexpocanada.bsky.social today. Can't wait to tell you all about it! Come see me at booth AP50 tomorrow!

p.s. this is the most badass picture of me I've ever seen, so thanks for all the support today!

UBI and Ranked Choice Voting would go a LONG way in solving many of our problems.

how about we not do ww3 and instead we demilitarize globally and do UBI and Green Jobs Programs and Education and Socialization Training?

any takers?
