✨generative ai is shit✨ get the sticker here: mcapriglione.art

I've made the mistake of listening to a lot of Peter Thiel interviews recently to try to understand his worldview. The guy is an absolute third-rate thinker who contradicts himself every 30 seconds and nobody pushes him on it.

Sam Raimi didn't strap a Super 8 camera to a 2x4 so you could tell me that AI is "inevitable."

that's riiiiiight! for our birthday month we are diving into the lady of pain and her planescape setting 🥳 tune in 1 july for: 🌌 a planescape hyperfixation 👑 figuring out if sigil is a gynarchy 🔪 the lady of pain's true origin???? it's gonna be a wild one 😅

genuinely concerned that if AI goes bankrupt I might shrug so hard I dislocate both shoulders

Older lady peeped the rainbow flag on my bike, asked in a thick Russian accent “It’s your Pride?” She told me her youngest grandchild is “not she berry or he berry but no berry.” I said “Nonbinary?” She got so excited. Yes! Yes! And “Is a secret, but they are my“ *looks around, whispers* “favorite.”

this might be the freshest luna moth I've ever seen

STOP BUYING PHYSICAL EDITIONS THAT ARE JUST EMPTY BOXES WITH DOWNLOAD CODES INSIDE YOU ARE LETTING GAMING COMPANIES KNOW THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH IT

This should be illegal. Not even from a physical media stand point. Millions upon millions of empty plastic boxes with multiple layers of plastic for a piece of paper. For what, the privilege to have an empty box on the shelf? Fuck off, this is comical levels of excess and waste.

Reminder: loads of common medications can affect how well you handle heat! Antidepressants, diuretics, stimulants, and anything that affects your nervous system. Be gentle with yourself and check in with loved ones!

The UK really doesn't want to hear this but living in a place that routinely hits 36c and up even for part of the year means changing things, including air conditioning. It's going to be expensive, consume power and will probably require government subsidy, but without it people will die.

German people I need your help! Any recommandation on what to see in Berlin or cool places to eat? Also, anywhere we shouldn't go that are just tourist trap and not good at all?

Nobody is making profits. It is going to burst and it is going to take all those data centers with it. Keep your skills. Practice your crafts. Hold on to your books. Stay sharp.

Is....is that their pro ai argument?

Who could have predicted this

we can put star wars in it, and turning into a weird little ball for some reason, but no kissing!!!!

Things commonly said during Girl Frame

what's darkly hilarious is not the failure is staring us all right in the face, it's the abject refusal of institutions to see it and course correct before shit really hits the fan. instead, they'd rather insist "AI isn't going anywhere" despite the call coming from INSIDE THE AI-GENERATED HOUSE!

I once had a director tell me i "wasn't being professional" because I pitched a dating sim. I told him that romance novels make the most money and asked why he wanted to leave money on the table. He reported me to HR who did nothing because she agreed with me.

funny how that works

Jeeeesus Christ. This Nazi regime can’t end soon enough.

greetings from the WIP graveyard~

don't know how to get it through people's heads that AI isn't helping you be creative. it's just feeding you the most predictable answers. that's all it's built to do. if you're finding it useful it's probably because, I'm sorry but, you're less creative (or at least lazier) than the base average

Gotta always love and adore nosy players who jump on opportunities presented by perfumed letters written by likely, probably, apparently the city's Sabbat bishop... Come get your secrets! In game of course (always, never otherwise)...

It's me! I'm a nosy bitch. Especially when I try to get to know the secrets my GM / ST is hoarding!!! Selfishly!!! I need to knooooooooooow

Summer evening

But for real, fuck geese.

So was bitcoin. And NFTs. The only people who push the inevitability angle are the ones heavily invested in its success. Lots of people who are tactically responsible for actually delivering results aren’t so convinced just yet.

Now the appearance of A24’s Scott Belsky on Peter Thiel’s secret society group member list (alongside high-ups from Google, YouTube, Anthropic, etc) make more sense, unfortunately.

Ffs stop using this shit

People say “AI is/will be in everything” and to me it sounds like “microplastics are/will be in everything.” Some predicted futures ought to be resisted lest they happen.

ALL AI SLOP CAN BE EXPUNGED GIVEN THE TIME, EFFORT, AND DRIVE.

every time you see a headline that begins with “we have to,” replace the “we” with “you” and you’ll immediately understand the purpose of the piece and the power dynamics at play

I’ve had straight men essentially say I’m overreacting for talking about rising internet censorship under the guise of protecting children, which is how I know it’s probably going to be an even bigger problem than I thought

Angel of the Cycle. Personal artwork of mine, started as a MtG style assignment in Winona Nelson's Smarterartschool class wayy back in winter. I tinkered with it on and off over the months, between freelance work. Now it's finally finished! :D

🧵“What she did…was to make me think why capitalism is not only efficient and practical, but also moral” - Alan Greenspan, speaking about his guru Ayn Rand in 1974. It's worth understanding the role that this partnership played in unleashing the savageries of the modern market.

A shame. I love the idea of the Steam Machine, but I don't $1,050 love the idea of the Steam Machine.

As a staunchly anti-AI punter at UKGE, I loved seeing these signs on stalls and they always encouraged me to stop and take a look. I wish I'd told the stallholders how much I appreciated seeing them! AI has no place in our creative, beautiful hobby. Gaming is humanity.
