Let’s talk about AI art. theoatmeal.com/comics/ai_art

I love how @sonicinternet.bsky.social claims that my house is covered, especially with AT&T fiber already present, and some neighbors already subscribed with them, and that they are "Planning" my request for connection since March. Doesn't really bode well for their actual service...

Ugh. Let's hope this is just a mistake from @bsky.app's moderation team, and not a genuine ban. Pretty wild that the second most popular labeler can just go poof in an instant tho. Not sure this bode well for this platform.

"I don't care that he's dead." "He's not a hero." "He's a scumbag." "He shouldn't be celebrated." No, no. I'm not saying that about Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk said that about George Floyd. Just in case anyone's interested in what he thought was fair to say about someone who was killed on camera.

The amount of times I keep being called out by this comic is unbearable.

Donc la France "exprime sa vive émotion" pour la mort d'un sac à merde nazi qui appelait à lapider les homosexuels et faisait l'apologie de l'esclavage, qui réclamait que les les hommes soient propriétaires des femmes et que les exécutions capitales soient diffusées en direct dans les écoles.

The best anti-AI post I've seen in a while is bsky.app/profile/ques... It perfectly describes what AI agents will never be able to replace: silliness and quirks. Our urge to just go derp sometimes. That's what makes us unique. That's what makes us irreplicable and irreplaceable.

Holy fuck. Are we truly this cooked?

Doctor I trust more than RFK Jr.

Can he even finish his second one...?

I was next to (one of) the AI slop booths at DragonCon and all I got was this lousy t-shirt. So, as you may or may not know, there was a booth selling AI slop images printed on acrylic panels at DragonCon. They were in booth a-10. I was in a-11. Here’s what happened from my perspective.

✏️ Happy Labor Day! 🖌️ Did you know that AI “art” is labor theft? Hi. I’m a professional traditional artist of over 15 years & I was able to make a decent living until 3 years ago. In May 2023, over 50 of my paintings had been scraped without my consent to fuel AI image generators like Midjourney.

it’s called an osha violation because that’s the sound you make before it happens

Again, thank you very much for this, John Roberts.

My PS1 game running on Sega Dreamcast. 🤯 This is not a port, this is a PS1 emulator for Dreamcast called "Bloom" written by Paul Cercueil. #ps1 #segadreamcast #dreamcast #gamedev #indiedev

@edzitron.com: "AND I LOOKED, AND BEHOLD, A PALE HORSE!"

“i have to use AI because i’m bad at drawingggg 😭😭😭”

I was trying to debug why I haven't been able to log in to my Capital One account for a while now. Spent some time to debug it. Turns out, it's just another case of the Internet of Shit. Wondering if some AI hallucinated a URL there.

Yeah no shit.

Et voilà, on en arrive où les journaux publient de la gen-AI sans honte en front page. @pigeongratuit.bsky.social

LOL. LMAO even.

Can confirm.

you have my vote, Andrew Cuomo!

Totally normal thing to do, isn't it, @edzitron.com ?

Fucking hell dude... all open code-reviews at my company suddenly got their description/details nuked. It was someone using some bullshit AI tools. It wiped it all and there's no version history. I'm DONE with headass execs/leads shoving this everywhere and expecting money to appear from thin air.

@okonomiyonda.bsky.social

AI companies: AI will increase productivity so much you won't need human employees any more as the AI can do all your work Also AI companies: we need our employees to be working every waking hour of every day.

Yay!

I have a feeling today's going to be tough for @badmedicaltakes.bsky.social

Fuck it, they killed him live.

When was the last time Trump attended mass, exactly?

Hi I'm Des and I do prop and environment art in the games industry and here is a collection of some of my personal projects.

We’re releasing the Epstein Files day one. There are no Epstein Files. Here’s video proof nothing happened. Ok we had to edit it. There are no Epstein Files. There are Epstein Files, but the Democrats made them. Why do you care so much about this Epstein guy? What are “Files”?

I just... I don't know. At this point, why not.

We ran a randomized controlled trial to see how much AI coding tools speed up experienced open-source developers. The results surprised us: Developers thought they were 20% faster with AI tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to AI than when they didn't.

Mayor Brandon Scott has reduced crime in Baltimore by 62%, and now has the lowest homicide rate in Baltimore history. How did he do it? NOT be spending more on police. He did it by MAJOR investment in afterschool and literacy programs. Socialism works

When Joe Biden referred to "shylocks" in 2014, the ADL admonished him. I look forward to seeing the group similarly criticize President Trump for using the term today.

The evil that men do lives after them

Amazing. Gen Z has invented vacation. I’m dead.
