“Silicon Valley has always preferred to steal first, then beg for forgiveness later, regarding permission as a tedious friction. Today, in its giddy accelerationist phase, it doesn’t even recognise it as a sin.”

Great piece from ⁦@AndrewOrlowski⁩ https://t.co/syyAKmjbAl

@MsBidoof_ I would agree. I've begun to see some artists "incorporating AI into their workflow" (i.e., generating then tweaking the output) and using that as an excuse to avoid disclosure. But they aren't being transparent about how much of the final is raw AI.

[runeowl @RuneowlStudio]

@mitsene @ariverofstars There is still a LOT of unlabeled AI on Stock. It can't be trusted.

@kineia3 That makes sense - if your taxes are very simple and you get a return, it's ok to use things like this, but once you're running a business it becomes critical to have a qualified pro do your taxes or you'll owe thousands.

[runeowl @RuneowlStudio]

@Krysiilys Dang, I was hoping that would be an easy fix. Feel free to DM if you want to go over some of the deductibles you're claiming to compare.

[runeowl @RuneowlStudio]

@kineia3 This sounds... like you're being taken advantage of! A qualified CPA will not be using a bottom-grade system like TurboTax, they will be doing all of your deductions manually. It's a bit like a graphic designer saying they create logos in Canva - it raises a red flag.

[runeowl @RuneowlStudio]

@Krysiilys Do you do taxes yourself (via TurboTax etc), or hire an tax accountant (who is not under H&R or any of the large group corporations)? This made an incredible difference for me.

@UltimateGuard It's such a shame - I was going to purchase this card box! But after seeing the terribly cheap looking AI playmat it's paired with, I have to hard pass and find a different company for TCG merch from now on.

[runeowl @RuneowlStudio]

@UltimateGuard I'm deeply disappointed to see AI generated content used by a company I've spent a good deal of money with -- I thought you valued artists and artistic integrity, and it's devastating being proven wrong here. 😞

[runeowl @RuneowlStudio]

@xppenca Thank you for working to make this right. As a part of the termination clause, I hope you are able to recoup the money you gave to the fraudulent illustrator to spend on new, original work for your ad. 🙏

Why DeviantArt's new AI "opt out" system is meaningless, and where to go from here ⬇️ [a thread]

[runeowl @RuneowlStudio]

@Etsy What do you plan to do about the flood of AI generated "content farm" storefronts, which are drowning out legitimate artists and crafters? 🎨Please take a stand for your sellers, and clarify that AI generated content is not allowed on your platform. 🙏

@Smatterbrain @Kumotogi does some really fantastic outfit designs!

@Katchdraws I used the Wacom Intuos 5 Touch almost daily for 10 years with zero issues. When the surface finally started to wear down, I bought the exact same model - the old one STILL works, and I have it as a backup.

[runeowl @RuneowlStudio]

@Kumotogi This is SUCH a stunning portrait, I'm still in awe ❤️ I hope we get to finish our session with your dapper lad soon!

@brendalyonsart This looks so lovely... and familiar. Are you near Resurrection Bay? 🐳

@hakuku They do have the ability, yes. Personal tweets / social media posts are very public, and they may point to your posts in future conversations. If you would like a truly personal space, I'd recommend a Private account that isn't associated with you, with only trusted friends
