This is so so important. Companies will do anything to not have a unsolved justified complaint against them.

One Tennessee school district's list of nearly 400 books removed from library shelves, including titles by authors ranging from Dr. Seuss to Toni Morrison, is being used by other school systems as a possible template to follow. www.timesfreepress.com/news/2024/no...

I sometimes get published in anthologies and magazines and such. Look here! It's what happens when a cosmic horror kaiju story meets legal procedural drama. Hijinks!

Hi! Are there working illustrators here who have your work directly and negatively affected by the rise of AI? I got contacted by a journalist who is writing on this topic, but at this moment I’m not the right person to be interviewed. Leave comment if this applies to you. Thank you.

This does in fact also apply to comics! So just in case 👍

Hey, maybe your grift would work better, and be less obvious if you didn't use AI? Seriously tho how on earth could anyone trust you with their project if this is how you promote yourself? With stolen art

Disappointed seeing some of the publishing news. Just want to reiterate our position on "AI" training: We will never willingly allow someone to train "AI" tools on work we've received or published. There will not be any licensing deals here. No in-house projects either.

Going through my Twitter account to bookmark things I want to save (🥲) and my takeaway is: repost people's art and writing and book threads and kickstarter links and rec posts. Share with abandon. I found so many artists/writers because people supported them with a repost and not just a like.
