Ai is a great tool for VFX and plenty of other things. It’s been the norm for decades. Fake techies turned it into a buzzterm. It’s a great way to enable up and comers without resources to grow. If you’re lazily replacing people in workflow, of course, that’s predatory. That’s what a lot of CEO’s *want, but they won’t achieve. In reality, these tools are being created by the people they’re supposed to “replace” to make their jobs easier. I have a passion for art, programming, and a lot of other things that are “effected” by ai. So far, it seems like fear mongering. Traditionalist always get fucked in the art world. You just kinda shoot for it. (I work in graphite and animation)

I had the same thing with video games. My dad got a free promotional copy of Morrowind from Fry’s. I didn’t have a computer/ laptop, but every summer, my dad would let me use his on our road trips. That game made me want to learn so much about anthropology, biology, history, mythology, etc… I played for hundreds of hours and never even came close to finishing.

That makes sense. It’s relatively warm; there’s a bunch of seaweed, and the waters are calm.

Edit: Wait, how was this a mystery?

“The 1920–1922 Dana expeditions, led by Johannes Schmidt, determined that the European eel’s breeding sites were in the Sargasso Sea.”

I zoomed in on the photoshopped tattoo on the right arm. Not only is the image the first one that pops up on Google when you search, “tribal wolf tattoo,” but MULTIPLE people have it as a real tattoo.

(Sorry for using terrible mobile screenshots)

Remember the time they learned a lesson about building regulations by killing every kid in the town, Final Destination style?

(It’s almost every other episode)

For real, though, can people not tell that’s Gatorade with the label removed?
