No, I do not. I avoid Ai "assisting" searches. I use reference material compiled by people. I work from my own head, heart & experience. When those aren't enough I reach out to other people. GenAi is the antithesis to writing. Creative, analytical, etc. It does not create. It vomits stolen talent.

Hello everyone, I just made this starter pack for game devs who refuse to use generative AI. In any capacity at all, including for ideas or placeholders or code or inspiration or whatever excuses people have. No AI use, period. Let me know if you want added. go.bsky.app/6DRdowf

We employ over 80 artists to carefully work on every single part of the animation and creative process. You will never get the nuance, complexity and beauty of a Ghibli film without the human hand and their love. We will never use AI to replace art in our works.

Fyi the cupcake character is one created by Loryn Brantz, who has this to say about Buzzfeed using it without her permission.

GenAI creators are not creators.

Hoyoverse has confirmed they are investing $14.6 billion into AI over the next 3 years. They aim to make their own internal AI ecosystem including its own training and servers to fuel future development of its games. #Hoyoverse www.gamingonphonebiz.com/hoyoverse-pl...

A third of the way to vgen verification 🤔 hopefully I can hit the 100 requirement in the next 30 days! And it would be a nice goal to help fund my wife's HRT :>

🌸I'm gonna make an effort to share the ko-fi more often...🌸 I have no idea how long I'll be unemployed, nor how unemployment benefits will turn out... so every little bit of money you can spare helps me and Lulu... Even just spreading the post around helps... thank you ko-fi.com/floramemori

It is so effing boring to be hit with BS doomer posturing so regularly. Again: 1) Midterm elections matter 2) Presidential approval matters a lot in midterms 3) Public opinion matters b/c it tells us something about who we are 4) It's good that Trumpist populism is failing as a long term project!

It’s going great.

🌸This is sudden notice, but I've been fired🌸 My supervisor had previously let me know my performance was meeting expectations, but today I was spontaneously let know I'm being terminated. As a result I will not be streaming today. Thank you for understanding. ko-fi.com/floramemori

hey chat my controller is on its last legs L1 decides when it wants to work and it has to be plugged in to hold a charge i'll draw whoever gets me this controller on my throne

PSA for YouTube Creators! Just wanna share this in case you don't want Google to have access to remix your YouTube shorts with GenAI using Gemini! YOU ARE AUTOMATICALLY ENROLLED. Here is what it's doing and how to opt out of said option if you don't want your shorts to be remixed with AI.

Getting real tired of being forced into using AI for visibility, or having it use our stuff without our knowledge or consent. It feels genuinely violating at this stage.

Tell lawmakers you deserve the right to control your own voice and likeness 💪 Take two minutes to support the NO FAKES Act. #nofakes Make your voice heard here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/su...

BREAKING: The House of Representatives just voted to require teachers to forcibly out transgender youth against their will. Censoring "gender ideology" does nothing to advance the basic promise that every child deserves the same opportunity to thrive, and that includes transgender students.

Fuck ICE

Our girlfriend’s AC unit broke, she lives somewhere where summers are very hot. She needs about 500 for the repairs if anyone can help out ko-fi.com/yurikoonna

An death just like George Floyd: In Dublin, Ireland, Yves Sakila, a Black Irish Congolese man, appears to have been killed by criminal justice system actors who kneeled on his neck moments before he died. Yves Sakila mattered. Black Lives Matter. Details: www.instagram.com/p/DYfk9HWiPx...

Well, it happened. A client disregarded my advice about using generative AI and guess what? It gave them bad advice AND the judge ruled that by using it, Client waived confidentiality and ordered us to turn a bunch of private stuff over. STOP USING GENERATIVE AI FOR LEGAL THINGS. I BEG YOU.

$5378/$10000. Fursona friday again. Going through a hard time and wishing I could be relaxing under a heat lamp right now lol. Progress has been good lately! Getting to $5400 would be very doable. Everything helps. #helpsky #gofundme #trans #scalie #furry

New month, new goal. Hi, I'm a disabled trans woman who has been unable to find work for way too goddamn long. If you can help it is appreciated, and also boosting helps a lot. Hoping streaming will supplement this, but i can't count on it right now. ko-fi.com/bellataxenle... #mutualaid

I'm always against LGBT+phobia, as that level of prejudice is intolerable!

Putrid, evil motherfucker. Trash his work, curse his name, support his survivors.

This is an emergency.. @maymortem69.bsky.social is in a VERY rough spot. Things are REALLY rough, and she's down to the wire. Rent, and other home issues have piled up, and she needs our help. Please, any amount you can donate is appreciated. Let's help our favorite spider. ko-fi.com/maymortem

still haven’t forgotten how many Big Important Allies and Lawyers went out of their way to let us know they thought she was the one in the wrong and deserved the demonization for giving that essay a zero, nor the entitled fits they threw when receiving pushback for it.

as first reported by the seattle gay news: www.sgn.org/story/166221...

If I could with @ramonacatxcx.bsky.social, I would. Right now, I'm worried about her.

Sorry, I think you know the drill by now lmao. I'm working and will have my first *real* paycheck by the end of the month, but right now we're struggling. I had to take a few days off because I blew out my back pretty bad, I'll be back at work Friday though. Thank you. ko-fi.com/knightmer/go...

Welp, a new "the worst thing that could happen" has happened for me: My medical debt from 2018-2022 has hit a point where the creditor is no longer allowing "min payments" & I have til June 6th to pay it IN FULL... "or else." If you can help, I'd appreciate it. www.gofundme.com/f/help-kdin-...

Boosting again, still in a bind and anything at all helps so much.

The coup in Tennessee continues unimpeded.

Trans rights are human rights and that is and never has been negotiable.

“We’ve targeted this content for being sexually gratifying” Did you hear that, guys? Gratification is bad now, no art that conjures positive feelings anymore. You can only look at stuff that makes you feel like shit

I'm having two surgeries in one day/on one leg. The one has a 3 month recovery time. The other is up to a year. The first few days especially are important to keep it from moving as much as possible. ANY help towards this helps this & the other leg later. Boosting if you can't contribute helps too!

“Trans people should flee red states,” has more or less been the liberal response to the years long legal oppression and elimination of rights for trans folks. Okay, cool, so you’re funding relocation programs? You’ll provide transitional housing? You’ll pay our rent? Give us jobs? Yeah, right.

She should denounce those judges as unfit racist fascists and demand their resignations. No, they won’t resign. But they should be called what they are. Deny your dishonorable opponents all honor.

Ugh, this is terrible! People need to stop this!

I don't think most of these characters will fit me this audition, but I encourage others to try for them!

can I get some help on this soon?

HAPPY US-EAST-1 OUTAGE DAY FOR THOSE WHO CELEBRATE 🎉
