Chrissy. 30. I write them sad-like stories. I reblog Fullmetal Alchemist, Danny Phantom, random other shows, and awful memes. Original fandom posts are tagged with the show's full name. Reblogs are tagged with acronyms. Fanfiction tags use the acronym followed by fanfiction: like "dp fanfiction" or "bnha fanfiction". She/her pronouns.

re: "what happened" about Taylor Swift: a subset of her fans were deadly convinced of a conspiracy saying she was queer and closeted and sending secret messages to say it, except she went "no i'm straight, for real, stop thinking otherwise" and that subset of fans is in Shambles about it

I’m so sorry you’ve been Minecraft video YouTube shortified
At least it’s not an AI text to speech voice?
Mother they have put me in Mined Craft.
#one hundred and fourty-two people have seen my tags on that post… #wildest thing i’ve ever been involved in on tumblr. probably ever (via @fireburst-520)
Welcome to the big-leagues soldier. They ’re putting us in The minecraft fire
HAAANK! THAT'S NOT ART BY THE OP HANK! OP REPOSTED IT WITHOUT CREDIT! HANK!
IT’S AI-GENERATED ART HANK! HAANK! THE FLOWER LINEWORK IS NONSENSICAL AND THE ROOM CORNERS DON’T MEET. IT’S AI! HANK!
continuing my TMA relisten. I forgot how absolutely cunty Elias is with the Jonah reveal.
I’m remembering some piece of art with Elias showing up in a red dress sprawled on a piano in the panopticon during the reveal scene. Is this real or did I imagine it so hard I think it’s real.
I’m working on a Christmas gift for my mom. It’s a page-a-day calendar website of her dog.
I finished it and also commissioned @homebeccer for banner art
(iPad dimensions since it’s the main thing my mom uses)
It always loads in with the current day, and my mom loves her daily checking-things routine so now this is part of it.

I think the really miserable part about AI for me as a professional programmer is that I know I could be super good at it. I’m a very average coder; I went into the field cause I knew it would be a stable career and make me money to afford the artistic hobbies I truly care about, but it doesn’t come super naturally to me. But what I am naturally good at is explaining shit. A third of what I do for my hobby project is like writing documentation and instructions for people on the project, I love it and I’m good at meticulously explaining things while also being understandable. And that’s exactly what you need to be good at “vibe coding” (well, plus a cursory knowledge of coding in general, which I have after 5 years). If this tech hadn’t come out in the most awful for society way possible, I would probably like using it a lot, but god I just can’t ignore all the horrible things that have been a result of it. It feels like a special kind of hell lol

I feel you entirely on the “Being An Explainer.” But the thing is, that’s not even great for AI coding, because “Being An Explainer” requires “Being An Understander” first, and the current development pace leaves no room for you to actually study and understand your own AI-generated code, let alone other people’s AI generated code, which they also don’t understand. There’s no understanding across the board. Just vibes.
I also feel like I wanna emphasize for people outside the profession:
Like, AI generated text has a bad smell. AI generated art looks weird and off putting. AI generated code is scary, tragically, good. And most of the faults with it tend to come from lack of overall architecture and vision, which comes from leadership pushing things a million miles an hour.
There’s no breathing room or forgiveness left in industry for doing things slow and by hand. And you end up with something enormous, lacking centralized vision, that no one entirely understands.

[Image description: Digital art of Mob, Tome and Serizawa from Mob Psycho 100, standing together and all dressed for cold weather. Mob drinks a warm beverage from a cup while Tome is exaggeratedly explaining something and gesturing with one hand; she holds a cup in her other hand. Serizawa is looking at the two of them, and he is holding two cups as well as paper bag. End description]

Ms. Doused-with-horror, how do you respond to the allegations that you've plagiarized the writings of renowned author Patches the cat? Reports say you've taken credit for her well-known work "A Breach of Trust"
phantomrose96 answered:
Patently and PROVABLY untrue because Patches is a little baby only 3 years old and she did not even exist when A Breach of Trust started in 2016.
Here is a photo for evidence
The truth of the matter is that A Breach of Trust has been written by a SERIES of cat ghost-writers over these many years all of whom I’ve been taking credit for
Actually there is one solid piece of truth to this all, which is that back in 2020 I was working on a chapter and editing dialogue between Ritsu and Teru which ended with Teru responding “shh I don’t want to hear it.”
And my then-roommate’s cat Apollo decided this was the correct time to lie on my keyboard, smushing “555555555” with his kitty cat ass for about 3 straight pages before I convinced him to not be on the keyboard.
An absolute stroke of brilliance this was, true art on a canvas, because it left my draft in a state of Ritsu chanting “5555555” for 3 straight pages before Teru got fed up enough to tell him to shut up.
So a free tool called GLAZE has been developed that allows artists to cloak their artwork so it can't be mimicked by AI art tools.
AI art bros are big mad about it.
I read their research paper, and it’s very cool! (The link is on their website, but also here’s the paper directly. Click the “download PDF” on the right. I did it and I promise it’s not a virus.) In short, it subtly adds perturbations that mimic a completely different style. It does this in a way which is minimally noticeable to the human eye, but overwhelmingly noted by the AI trying to duplicate the style.
The research paper cites an article about a specific artist who was victim to having her specific style (by her full name) mimicked and trained into a model by a Redditer, who posted it to r/stablediffusion.
I bring this up because I read the Reddit post, and while some people in the comments were pointing out the amorality of copying a specific artist, many of the commenters stuck to the (in my opinion) heinous sentiments of “this isn’t illegal” and “all artists borrow” and “this is progress. the artists are just babies”
This attitude of “AI art generation is just ‘borrowing’ which is exactly the same as what artists do and there’s no ethical dilemma here” scares me more than the existence of the technology, because the sentiment is what will drive its use.
