The all out attack on all our collective data is insane. Our messages to each other, our slacks, our photos, our paintings, our Spotify playlists, our search histories, any data we create is being used to train AI and then deploy those AI as API into every application we use...harvesting even more data. I want PROTECTION for my data and accountability for companies that try to hide behind ever changing terms of use. #ai #artistsoninstagram #artistsupportartists
I'm not afraid of AI...I reject it. It goes against everything I enjoy about making art or writing. I'm the dude that draws every board in a fence because I LIKE IT. That's where I find the charm, the character. I certainly don't want ANYTHING that would do that for me. Who wants a self solving puzzle??
I've got stickers, books, and posters at booth 925 out in the Inland Empire today and tomorrow. If you are at the convention, come and say hi. There will be intermittent @alenaloftis and small children belonging to us. #comiconrevolutionontario
Fantastic article by Gary Marcus and Reid Southern concerning DALLE-3 and two word prompts that return copyrighted characters. Look at this "intelligence" and its ability to "create". An eye opening article for those believers who still think that generative AI is anything more than a pixel predictor with a database filled with stolen/unlicensed/copyrighted images without the owner's consent or knowledge.

An anniversary is always special, but its rare to share two anniversaries on the same day. Alena and I celebrated our anniversary on the same day that Disney turned 100. We met each other while working at Disney and Disney is a part of our lives every day. I tried to find some photos.
1. Alena and I at the Ralph Breaks the Internet premiere.
2.You'll see a very young me in my mickey ears.
3. My first office at Disney on the 3rd floor.
4. My crazy office during Ralph Breaks the Internet.
5. I'm terrorizing Anna and Elsa.
6. Celebrating Zootopia with Byron.
7. Hanging out with Ian and Ami.
8. My Ralph crew at Disneyland.
9. In Kenya on a research trip.
10. A rooftop party with the art department.
I'm so lucky to have worked here for the last 12 years, and to have met the love of my life in the process. I am happier than you can imagine. Happy Anniversary @alenaloftis and Happy 100 @disneyanimation #disney100
