When you scratch past this particular use-case (which is horrific) we need to consider that this exact same set of APIs is being used in Banking, Healthcare, Insurance and Manufacturing… it’s basically everywhere now. futurism.com/artificial-i...

Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year. UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year. Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Was really awesome to head over to @stillwintercraft.bsky.social and say “thanks” for the epic colour treatment on the ‘Darkest Judge’ Rogue Trooper arc today at WCC. It’s AMAZING work. I honestly, genuinely just love meeting the humans who put the craft into the things I enjoy.

A week of high flying begins! #rocketeer

Every fuckin’ year. 🤦‍♂️

People piling on the newly born BlueSky for a few teething errors seem to have very short memories. Twitter spent years breaking, burning, and betraying its own users. Maybe give the new kid a minute before we pretend the old place was some kind of paradise.

Always so ridiculously content when I’m making and breaking and hacking and solving… a little add-on and some 3D printing for Saturday. Video of the outcome in the replies. Guessing what it is mandatory 😂👇🏻👻

The book is taking on a life of its own, a record of what we stand to lose as Ai creeps into every corner of creativity. Comics are an escape route in your hands and they deserve protecting. Had a lot of incredible interviews, more to come… this is going to be EPIC. www.trainor.fyi/books/drawn/

At CCIC we feel it’s never too early to start gathering evidence. Come by our table and let us know what difference a scheme like this would make to your life! (We have a postbox so you can share your thoughts anonymously too if you prefer 😘)

In the UK we have something called the Contempt of Court Act 1981. It basically means that once legal proceedings are active, the public (and especially the press) must not publish anything that creates a substantial risk of serious prejudice to that case. Social media is going to blow-up cases.

THOUGHT BUBBLE, IS IT? Well Sunday @ 1.30pm I'll be presenting an early preview of the UK Comics Creator Survey results and… Fuh. king. hell, do I have a bombshell to drop on you…! I’ll be joined by expert panelists @dapsdraws.bsky.social @pondi.bsky.social & @markbradley.bsky.social

Wowsers… is it almost London Winter Comic-Con weekend again already?

My grail page from Realm of the Damned by Pye @pye.bsky.social Parr and Alec @agentofweird.bsky.social Worley. I just like owls, and yes, I have blurred a word! Listen to my chat with Pete Trainor @petetrainor.fyi in episode 312

Nowhere in the hysterical pile-on against the BBC in the British press has anyone mentioned that BBC News now has 77 million viewers & listeners in the US and has established itself as the second most trusted news source there.

Just thinking about it, it's funny how many comic creators' names sound like characters from Westerns. John Wagner, Jack Kirby, Steve Dillon, Frank Miller, John Byrne, Fletcher Hanks, John McRea, Ramon Villalobos

……..so what happened to The Metaverse then? Did I miss the memo about that $46bn dream closing?

Just getting this in before the outrage starts… Party leaders only get to lay a wreath at the Cenotaph if their party has six or more MPs. Reform has five. That’s one short of six. So no, it’s not a “disgraceful stitch-up.”

I’ll take the small wins and little steps… if you’ve ever sat down to write or craft a book you might appreciate how satisfying the little milestones are. Still a long long way to go, and a lot of people to speak with, but crossing 100,000 last night at midnight has put a smile on my face.

Forget algorithms. This is my Canon: 10 comic stories that rewired my DNA. Not the ‘best ever’—just the ones that built me. 🧵👇 comicvault.cc/profile/pete...

OpenAI’s + other LLMs creation ability is a kind of industrialised mimicry. They mine creativity, refine it, & sell it back to us, built on unlicensed books, art, & writing that have been scraped & statistically encoded into their neural weights… it’s not original content, its a cover song at best.

In my top 4 games of all time… and yep, @eyepatchwolf.bsky.social has nailed the review. It’s literally every reason I killed 120 hours of my life in the 90s on this beauty 😂 … just amazing.

I really didn’t understand the fuss around this book. I really really tried to like it, but just nothing there for me…

The people who truly change a broken system aren’t the ones shouting about its flaws, they’re the ones brave enough to build something better in its place.

The sweet sweet smell of lies and delusion. From people who should know better… I bet they all have a book inbound?

I’ve had this kind of week with my 16-year-old. It’s exhausting 😂 Seriously, a lovely article. Dads, please read 👇🏻 inews.co.uk/inews-lifest...

When I was running Ai in my last role across 13 different businesses, I black-listed Perplexity for some pretty dodgy data and ethical practises… but, let’s be clear on this one; Amazon is only suing Perplexity because it’s made a $4 billion investment in Anthropic. www.reuters.com/business/ret...

Just astonishing. More of THIS kind of innovation, not Ai generated slop, please.

Blueprints for Queen Nemetari from Realm of the Damned by @agentofweird.bsky.social & @pye.bsky.social Chosen as a grail page by Pete @petetrainor.fyi Trainor in episode 312 of the book club.

Shall we talk about the new Coca-Cola Ad that’s “entirely Ai generated” … 🤷🏻‍♂️

I try not to comment too much on other countries politics since I have little lived and local understanding… but, has a better line ever been uttered from a newly minted mayor; “𝐃𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐝 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐦𝐩, 𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐈 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐈 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮: 𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐯𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐦𝐞 𝐮𝐩.”

There it is 😍 he’s a beauty, ain’t he?!

I know enough about generative Ai, professionally from the tech perspective, to know this ship has now sailed. You can’t simply ‘stop’ using the original material, it’s basically been taken apart and washed into data and code soup. This is going to get very nasty and very complicated 🍿

Buckle up, this one is going to get spicy. futurism.com/artificial-i...

Wow. Not much more I can add.

Isn’t it crazy that not that long ago we lived in a world where this guy gave us all (in every country) hope, and unity, and a feeling of ‘can do’ and in less than a decade we got to where the world is now. I often pause and think about it. I was working in the U.S on and off from 2009-17 ♥️

Happy Halloween! Pete Trainor @petetrainor.fyi joins the book club to discuss Realm of the Damned by Alex Worley and @pye.bsky.social podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/m...

Loved chatting to @megacitybookclub.bsky.social about one of my absolute favourites from the last decade. Amazing writing from Alec Worley and stunning art by @pye.bsky.social — a very Halloween chat here. megacitybookclub.blogspot.com/2025/11/312-...

Genuinely love this (feel free to dislike if you dislike that statement!) for far too long social media bred this weird likes and ticks fantasy. Proper debate needs both sides. BlueSky is creating a space for sensible discourse again. Bravo.

That Glenn Fabry cover… hello hello 💥🔥 comicvault.cc/public/comic...

Herd negativity has always been a quiet contagion & it seeps through the cracks of professions, clouds judgment, and corrodes ethics & not through malice, but through mimicry. People don’t notice they’ve joined the chorus until the song is too loud to stop singing.

And this weeks award for genuinely brilliant goes to this absolute legend who school our politicians… bravo sir, bravo.

The mind of a comic book creator isn’t wired for this world, it’s wired to build new ones. I’m discovering with the book that they dream sideways, where logic breaks and imagination begins. It’s awesome insight. They are genuinely like architects for other realities.

What could have possibly happened in 2016 to result in such a steep decline? Who could possible know…

“Alexa, show me a racist.”
