Zelda Williams has asked people to stop sending her AI slop videos of her father Robin Williams:

"It’s dumb, it’s a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it’s NOT what he’d want"

"You’re not making art, you’re making disgusting [stuff] out of the lives of human beings .. [and] art and music"

Change the language you use when talking about people who use AI

They did not make AI art or an AI video, they requested AI generate something

Divorce the attribution of creation from the prompter, because they didn't create anything

a flow-chart with 2 islands. "Do I need AI?" that flows into a final island saying "No"

The pro-AI side will never be able to convince the masses that artists are some bourgeois upper class, the image of the “starving artist” is too fucking ingrained and too fucking true for that to be anything but a lie.

i did read that! thankfully I can pick up unexplained things thanks to general x-men knowledge, but I think im gonna go watch the original when i finish '97

🌸 // ꌗ꓄ꋬꉧ // 🌸 @staxdeadempress.bsky.social · 6d

also I think as a trans person in this current political climate, i really relate to the x-men... that's always been there, but its hitting me so hard right now

I decided to watch X-Men '97 cause the animation looked good and the clips are great, and I'm so glad I did. It's such a great show so far, it makes me want to watch the original Animated Series from the 90s
