Bluesky is made with AI, the engineers and even some non-engineers use Claude code

Embarrassing.

We got a paper shredder. We can now get rid of the Grant family nuclear launch codes.

So apparently one of my wisdom teeth is coming through, even though I thought it was already fully through. Who knew you could be teething in your late 30s? lol

Krita 5.3.0 is out with a lot of great new features. A wonderful new text tool, pop-up panel and customizable colour picker. @davidrevoy.com made a helpful video showing off some of the features. youtu.be/DNhf_WLfSaE?... Thanks @krita.org for all of your hard work!

My illustration portfolio is live at tristengrant.com — children's picture book work, updated and ready to go. Available for new projects and always happy to hear from authors, editors, and agents.

I can't let #WorldFrogDay and the first day of Spring go by without sharing a froggy scene of my own! 🐸

#3279 Oh hi

Bluesky is going to change for the worse.

Happy Book birthday to Fern & Newt!!!! A new chapter book series from @orcabook.bsky.social written by Mireille Messier and illustrated by me ;) Out in English and French! There is an Activity Pack too ⤵️ www.catarinaoliveirastudio.com/book-lost-loot

Some think AI is the future, while others see it as a dystopian nightmare that will only add to the mental health and addiction crises.

You have no evidence that Ai will improve anything or that is won't 'burst' causing even more harm. They said NFTs would be the future, look at how that went. Ai is currently taking jobs and is projected to take even more. Its all killed people and encouraged people to commit suicide.

A Bob's Burgers cover of Smooth Criminal... Tammy, are you okay? Tammy, are you okay? Will you tell us that you're okay? Tammy, are you okay?

What has AI revolutionized that these people think its so great? So they can ask a bot some questions and get an answer. Wow, Google did that years ago. Is it that they need a computer to tell them how smart and cool they are? We dont need it in the military. It has already killed innocent people.

Dude has never heard of the dot com bubble and thinks when a "bubble" bursts the tech (or whatever) completely disappears.

Not wanting to use something and warning people about the massive harm, isn't hiding. Spending money on Ai isn't preparing for its harm, its helping it do harm.

i’d probably win the olympics tbh

Or the Ai bubble will burst, destroying the world economy any the environment. But hey, at least we followed everyone else!

Wow!!!

Sleet storm day / work in progress

All real life war should be outlawed and replaced with video game battles. Call of Duty, Battlefield, whatever. A neutral country should host the "battle" and ensure no cheats.

Did some calculations and looks like this month is going to be cutting it close again for bills & groceries, womp womp. Hit me up if you'd like me to draw you something! ko-fi.com/c/dca28fa3da #bsnm #queermarket

No, we don't need Ai.

Some monochromatic beauty from the ridge above Button Bay, west of Churchill, Manitoba. It was such a beautiful day for a snowshoe.

Sure would be a shame if everyone downloaded these free eBooks and told their friends about it and retweeted this ko-fi.com/swordscomic/...

Of the three seasons during which I guide tours in Churchill, #aurora season is by far of the most stressful, because we have no control over what people are coming up to see. Tonight’s show was a big relief and a huge excitement for my guests. Now I can sleep. 😊

AI doesn’t have intelligence and isn’t sentient! Stop it!! We can’t even treat living beings (humans or animals) with empathy and respect. Maybe work on that first.

New from 404 Media: Proton Mail, the privacy-focused email service, gave authorities data that let the FBI unmask an anonymous 'Stop Cop City' protester. It was payment data linked to the anonymous email account. From that, FBI ID'd them, then tracked their movements www.404media.co/proton-mail-...

If anyone needs video editing / photo / etc done hit me up. I’m now officially looking for work again since my last job actually let me go because of my medical bs.

Yippee! I finally created a website to present my upcoming nature-based picture books. Website design is challenging for an “older folk” like me - but I’m proud that I did it. I’d be so grateful if you could take a look. Feedback welcomed and appreciated! mariebanville.ca

All these fools that want to fight a war, should instead spend more time with their pets and family.

Carney: Canada cares about the environment. Also Carney: Canada will invest in Ai.

If I said to you... "I support [company/person name]". What would you get from that?

This! Discord isn't a support forum/website.

Vector graphic animation software Glaxnimate 0.6.0 is now fully integrated into KDE's ecosystem. glaxnimate.org/news/release... Glaxnimate 0.6.0 is out and can now be deployed for Linux, the MS Store and macOS thanks to being fully integrated into KDE's build system. #animation #FreeSoftware

Is anyone I know using this? It’s supposed to be like Goodreads but indie and anti-AI #kidlit #booksky pagebound.co

Imagine thinking Grammary and Google Maps are the same thing as using Ai to write/draw/etc for you.
