We're at the stage of the cycle where Ford is now an AI play (somehow)

Witness my Act and Deed (1882) by British painter Frank Paton

born artists are unique. I know artists who can't even grasp how talented they are, it just seems "natural" to them. "anyone can draw," they say. "just try."

“what works in marketing changes every few years and you have to be adaptable. Your old playbook gets outdated."

I tend to think this is totally wrong and it explains a lot

You can take a marketing playbook from 1930, tweak it and it would be far more impactful than most modern marketing thinking.

It’s an interesting conversation. What changes, what stays the same , and what things can be navigated by new tactical changes to long understood strategic foundations

Make your garbage in more garbage-like if you want better garbage out.

How many times do we need to tell tech people

The job of ads is to MAKE people interested.

Not to FIND interested people and take credit for something that would have happened.

They just don't get it.

The job of ads is also largely not to drive immediate sales, but increase what people will pay and for how long.

I wrote about OpenAI’s “New Deal” policy blueprint aka progressive slop for Democrats

inventions used to be fun things like microwave popcorn and indoor plumbing. now all we get are computers that steal ur ideas and hybrid dogs burdened by the knowledge of their own existence

New Funrama posted on my patreon. I’ve been writing, drawing and producing my own comic series continuously for 16 years. Hundreds of pages. Some day people will discover it and think “wow what was he tripping on”

Let's say a generation of kids can produce amazing essays , white papers or research, with almost no undertstanding of the content, the process or the thinking, where does that leave us.

Lots of people seem to be stoked at the productivity gains from this

[Walter Kirn @walterkirn]

It's really mine, it's just "AI enriched." Fine. But it reminds me of when they started dumping synthetic vitamins in every food there was. Also, "polyester blends." America loves its prospective synergies even more than its settled achievements. Everything will be monkeyed with.

From the first issue of A Quiet Place: Storm Warning which launched this week from IDW! Did you get it? I hope so! Story and breakdowns by Phil Hester; art by me; colors by Lee Loughridge, and letters by Nathan Widick.

I was definitely not expending the panda to start singing Auld Lang Syne at the end of this

[Joe Weisenthal @TheStalwart]

After this conversation, I've become considerably less worried about AI doom. It's possible that with AI help, humanity reaches a previously unimaginable level of wealth and stability (after 200 years of chaos and destruction, which is basically nothing in the grand scheme).

dementia dreams. "....& then I was captain of the Olympic team...I think it was something on the ice....I fouled/knocked down a big guy, he fell hard!...then, it was a basketball in my [smallish] hands, I fouled/knocked down a big Black guy they said he was a famous athlete but he fell hard!...then, I bombed Iran, they died like flies, I bombed fishing boats in the Gulf of America, my polls went through the ceiling, I killed lots of people, they let you do that when you are King but you, losers & suckers, will never know."

Cheers. Last ale before deployment. Watercolour and gouache on board. Work continues on new Gwelf book. More soon. Tally Ho!

A book isn’t simply lots of words
