Hey, you! Remember to do stuff just for the joy of doing it. You don't need to transform everything in content for the social media (unless this makes you happy). Enjoy that hobby yourself, no need to think about monetizing it. The reward should be your inner joy/peace first. Always.

AI skills. * Saying no. * Not using it. * Rigorously checking the output if forced to use it.

*fully restores your HP as you scroll past*

Never give up. Your town needs a new eccentric who talks to ravens, wears jewelry made of ancient bones, and stalks the forest atop a steam powered mechanical wolf. I believe in you.

Every AI defender goes on and on about "productivity"and "efficiency" but to what end? It's not giving regular people any additional free time. It just turns them into bigger "producers", as though producing more was an unequivocal good.

Something lovely for the weekend! Minoan cups made by Bronze Age potters some 3,800 years ago! Heraklion Archaeological Museum, Crete 📷 by me #Archaeology

Watch out for the ONE question where they try to trick you by putting "I want AI" as the bottom option where EVERY other question has "I don't want AI" at the bottom!

Your daily fortune: Never stop growing. Grow new antlers, tentacles, fangs, & talons, and outgrow all human limitations.

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up. I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

This recent prose poem of mine is what I have to say about today's SFWA/AI essay in File770.

Translators work hard to make sure that the translated words, sentences, paragraphs, chapters, etc, not only convey the author's meaning, but also the author's *style.* Translators are alchemists. They are artists, and poets, and researchers, and editors. They are magicians and wizards.

That time of year again!

Apparently Paypal is now asking those who commissioned artists through invoices for feedback on the experience, Please never type anything, Its a trap. Just putting both yours and their accounts at risk of bans.

funny how, with my sleep schedule out of wack this past few weeks today is definitely one day we've seen more light than in those past weeks combined together

There is *no* ethical use of genAI. It is built on stolen art, through exploitative labour, and every day as they train new model and answer query, they burn immense amount of energy & water. It has no place in our field, none.

When you’re walking somewhere and see a little dog or cat peeking out a window? That’s the stuff right there. The meanign of life

hey, I am not gonna doompost about it necessarily but, a glance around will tell you it's a hard & stressful time for artists, and especially so this year consider dropping a kofi donation, or reposting a shop link, or even just, leave a comment so someone knows you like their work it does matter

This entire weekend

AI has actively made life worse for literally everyone - tech is now more expensive - you cannot trust most media of reality anymore - programs barely function - energy prices - literal psychosis - your voice can be literally stolen for evil - more spyware but hey, you can avoid paying an artist.

got this beauty today <3 we made up two of the hekses there as well as proofread it all

Does anyone want a survivorship bias shortbread

i take frenzy damage every time i see someone go "well i just use it for the boring stuff". what are you TALKING about? if it's boring or unimportant, why are you putting it in? NPC dialogue is fertile ground for worldbuilding, creating verisimilitude, conveying important information, and hijinks!!

this is a deeply unsettling fact to have learned at 1am

Well put by @drrachelbarr.bsky.social

For context: russia chooses Ukrainian nationals for sabotage in Poland *precisely* to spread xenophobia and mistrust towards Ukraine. Ukrainians living in Poland are facing way too much shit already. Don’t fall for it.

człowiek vs. IKP: internistka (z Warszawy): pan wypełni ankietę profilaktyczną w IKP, powinno też zassać tam naszą placówkę jako pana obecną przychodnię człowiek: wypełnia ankietę IKP: twoja placówka jest w wiosze, w której nie byłeś 10 lat, twój internista to pediatra, który już nie przyjmuje 🙃

first episode of The Mighty Nein @criticalrole.bsky.social is so so good 💜 😭 💜

I will again ask: if AI tools are supposed to be so great, why do they have to trick and/or force us to use them?

Good morning! AI is being force-fed to you by a handful of billionaires who will lose a bunch of money if they fail to convince you that you need it. You do not need it 🫶
