"Cartoon Network’s struggles have been playing out at a time when animation at large has arguably never been more popular. From Dog Man and Inside Out 2 to The Super Mario Bros. Movie, animated features continue to rule the box office." #animation #cartoonnetwork

I am watching the Eurovision semi with mixed feelings today. Many countries have amazing acts. However Israel?!! 😔 And I am still unhappy about how The Netherlands was treated last year. Anyway, let's see where it goes this year but I might not comment that much as previous years 😮‍💨

It's been weird to hear people say I "collaborated with" ChatGPT or got its "help" to write my book. So I wrote for @theguardian.com about the myth that AI products can "help" or "collaborate with" us in self-expression — and whose interest the myth serves. www.theguardian.com/technology/n...

The choice to fixate on young girls and dolls is not only creepy, but as this writer states, "he casts those Americans who would complain about the economic pain that he is inflicting on them as feminine and hence as contemptible, deserving no more respect than spoiled children."

So true, we are facing a huge problem of data & platform capitalism, geared towards profit, magnified by generative AI. This data-driven media culture trickles down to many areas of our lives, from education and work to our leisure (cue fandom) #mediastudies #platformstudies

'...Surely no one would dare use ChatGPT to write something personal. But one of his students turned in a reflection with robotic language and awkward phrasing that Green knew was AI-generated.' A worrying trend in #highered that I'm sadly all too familiar with. #academia nymag.com/intelligence...

17 hours into Blue Prince, a very clever, mysterious game in which you are the heir of an ever changing mansion. The family narrative is quite compelling and some of the big puzzles are finally coming together! (And no, I still didn’t get into the antechamber…. ) #blueprince

Stumbled across this in a charity shop: a Roald Dahl story about an angry thwarted writer who uses a computer to find the mathematical patterns underlying writing, and then churns out infinite stories in order to undercut and destroy real authors. Wow, just imagine a crazy world like that.

Happy weekend at Animecon and liberation day (Rondé live!) 💜 I even squeezed in Thunderbolts which was the best MCU film that I have seen in years!! And I could enjoy it all with new glasses to boot! 🤓🌸

"Self-styled prophets are claiming they have 'awakened' chatbots and accessed the secrets of the universe through ChatGPT" Oof, problematic. www.rollingstone.com/culture/cult...

Happy May 1st! Academics, keep fighting the regimes and budget cuts. Education should not be devalued. And neither should research. Try to opt out of projects that involve highly predatory journals or publishers. They charge top tier & we get nothing? Enough! Our labor matters! #academicsky

May 1st . A good day to remember that big corporations get away with pretty much everything because they assume that people don't have the energy, the time and money to fight back. Support local businesses. Support small businesses. Support the little guy and not the Goliaths of commerce.
