Leg/Pol Advocate, Concept Art Association. Working to protect human artists/creators from predatory extraction of their IP, which then is used as data fuel for unregulated genAI. My statements here are my own, and should not be attributed to anyone else.
Mark your calendars THIS FRIDAY (10/24) 2:30pm at Lightbox. Myself, Karla Ortiz, & Ben Zhao will be discussing new tools/updates re: combating GenAI legislatively, as well as in court & new tools.

We’re making progress. Banding together we can & are combating theft of creative works from so many.

Non-Violence is essential ! The shameful WH is sending the National Guard to CA against the wishes of the Governor!

Do not let them provoke you!

Outrageous #SHAME

These ICE thugs should not be allowed to wear face masks on State & City Streets.

Huge shoutout to the bi-partisan group of 35 State Legislators here in CA who signed on to a letter to Congress in OPPOSITION to the 10 Year State AI Regulations Ban. Hopefully other states are doing something similar. #NoStateAIRegulationsBan

CALL ☎️ THE CAPITAL SWITCHBOARD EVERY DAY TO SAY - HELL NO !!!
May 19, 2025 at 7:48 AM
Please do whatever you can to prevent the State AI Regulation Ban that has been inserted into the Budget Resolution. This affects EVERY SINGLE person!
This must be stopped !!!
May 14, 2025 at 9:25 PM
Did you call your US Senators/Congressional Reps yet? The vote is happening this week, if not today.

Tell them to kill the AI regulation ban in the Budget Reconciliation Bill. Tell them how this will harm you, it is bigger than just the creative industries, it affects EVERY SINGLE PERSON directly!

The voice actors were faster, and many of them had to catch flights out of town, so I’m also putting their photo up here too!
