1/2 Artists! If you have an EU Etsy shop you are now required to share your passport & a selfie with the third party provider Persona. Otherwise you won't get any payments & your shop will be closed within 90 days. #art

2/2 Persona has faced scrutiny over exposed database front ends & complex third-party subprocessor networks (incl. AI firms) handling user information. It is time to close my Etsy shop for good (I only kept it open for custom orders).

If you heavily depend on income through Etsy, do not choose the automated facial recognition technology procedure. Use instead the non-biometric authentication. At least this option is a bit less risky.

There's no money for companies to make the tv shows you like, the video games you like, the local diner you like shut down, no one you know can find a job. Think about that in context of

AI is now the biggest investment in all of US history as a percentage of GDP. Datacenter construction is up, all other construction is down. "AI Is Squeezing Out the Rest of the Stock Market," reported WSJ 2 days ago. We basically bet the whole economy on the most optimistic visions panning out.

Many thanks to the wonderful artists & supporters (Shana, Steffest, @echtzeitkultur.org , Luisa). "Demoscene graphics are not born by the push of a button. They are the culmination of many hours, long thought processes, the heart & skills of the person behind the facade."(Echtzeit Digitale Kultur)

You want to commission an artist for your next project? Here is some important advice. Do not send an AI generated image with your email. It kills all the joy and turns the artist into a prisoner. A description in written form is much more useful. We love to use our minds and need to dream. #art

New artwork - King of Swords ๐Ÿ’ซ Sharpness, intelligence, logic, authority and power are associated with this card. I chose the secretary bird as king. It symbolizes divine majesty. #art #krita
