I can't stop thinking how wrong the tech bros have understood creativity and creators. Or even just having hobbies. #erliart

Tadc fans could really benefit from Toby Fox's words during the UT 10th anniversary stream, now that the show is over and many things were left open. "The Underground is as big as you want it to be, and I invite you to come behind the wall with me."

‘The Good Advice Cupcake’ creator Loryn Brantz says she is “horrified and disgusted” after BuzzFeed allegedly gave her character to an AI platform without her involvement. She also called for a boycott of BuzzFeed and AI-produced animation.

“Creative breakthroughs happen when visionary storytellers are given access to transformative tools”-- Actually, creative breakthroughs happen when people don't have to drink brown water from data center waste. This is not cool or accessible, this is disingenuous & disappointing.

Jorge R. Gutierrez says animating with AI was like “having sex and then they hand you the baby” during his appearance at the AI on the Lot convention. He currently has a project named ‘Punky Duck’ through Amazon MGM’s GenAI Creators’ Fund.

Folks need to pause and consider what the wider implications of TADC getting a theatrical release means and stop lamenting potential spoilers. An independent animated YoTube show is getting a special presentation in movie theaters. Iron Lung and this have opened the doors. The future is exciting.

I'm still looking through the Amazing Digital Circus ep.8 trailer, but HOLY SHIT QUEENIE??!?!??!???????????!?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everyone who tried to draw around me and started drawing LOVED it at the beginning because of their QUICK IMPROVEMENT. Then quit when they hit The Wall™️. But it's when you hit The Wall™️ that you NEED to push through with practice!! And you gotta do it for yourself, because it's ALWAYS worth it! 😤

We cannot and should not let generative AI take away these tiny, insignificant, but probably fun as hell jobs from artists

I’ve been having trouble getting myself to practice drawing/sketching and posting my drawings because of how busy college has been. So, obviously, instead of changing things to make time, I’m gonna force myself to draw something once a day! 1/2

Okay so, technically I didn’t draw anything in the book today, another busy day (good day tho!). HOWEVER, 5 minutes before I made this sign for a protest. Very quickly thrown together but oh well. And to make up for skipping a day I’m gonna teach myself stuff for graphic design. Also fuck ICE!

Okay, so this might be a summer project. I’m still going to challenge myself to make something weekly so I don’t completely abandon the challenge.

Alright this one looks a little funky but that’s because I challenged myself to erase as little as possible. I did unconsciously erase (like when I gave up on the front teeth) but most of this is the first attempt. Also the page size squished the drawing a little but oh well, I’ll try again. 4/10

Man the more I look at this the more I hate it and wish I had more time, but hey that’s the point of the challenge hhhhhh

No matter how much I hate what I’ve drawn or how finished it is, I will make myself post it under this thread. The only thing standing in my way is if I decide to stop, so hopefully I can persevere (Although if I do miss a day I’m not just gonna give up). 2/2

Hm. So uh. Day was a little busier than expected. Not much energy to do a whole drawing. BUUUUUUUUUT I can draw Kirby faceplanting.
