The "funni GoPro" drawing has been my wallpaper for months and I never noticed you finished it..I am way to obsessed with the blood tubes in between v1 hip joints and the shadinggg

The Archangel and His Machine, V1

yes its based on 'Ivan the Terrible and His Son'

some in-progress screenshots/behind-the-scenes under the cut~

Sketching, lineart (which was abandoned eventually, as you can see lmfao) and basic color/lighting blocking:

I created mockup poses using DAZ3D, as well as using Dotflare's 'HD Gabriel' model and Xetirano's 'V1 model' as visual references for drawing some of the details correctly.

I modelled the background by hand in Blender and aligned it with my previously-created DAZ3D poses to get the perspective correct and kinda just...slapped some colors and perspective blur on it and called it a day.

This is about 12 days' worth of work, ish. I can't remember if I worked on it every day or not.

[gh0st-eaterr]

reblogging this to my main bc i'm proud of this one lmfao

ed zitron, a tech beat reporter, wrote an article about a recent paper that came out from goldman-sachs calling AI, in nicer terms, a grift. it is a really interesting article; hearing criticism from people who are not ignorant of the tech and have no reason to mince words is refreshing. it also brings up points and asks the right questions:

if AI is going to be a trillion dollar investment, what trillion dollar problem is it solving?

what does it mean when people say that AI will "get better"? what does that look like and how would it even be achieved? the article makes a point to debunk talking points about how all tech is misunderstood at first by pointing out that the tech it gets compared to the most, the internet and smartphones, were both created over the course of decades with roadmaps and clear goals. AI does not have this.

the american power grid straight up cannot handle the load required to run AI because it has not been meaningfully developed in decades. how are they going to overcome this hurdle (they aren't)?

people who are losing their jobs to this tech aren't being "replaced". they're just getting a taste of how little their managers care about their craft and how little they think of their consumer base. ai is not capable of replacing humans and there's no indication they ever will because...

all of these models use the same training data so now they're all giving the same wrong answers in the same voice. without massive and i mean EXPONENTIALLY MASSIVE troves of data to work with, they are pretty much as a standstill for any innovation they're imagining in their heads

does anyone else miss like. the golden era of content that was PoF/LWS4 because I do—

genuinely I’m of the stance that I wouldn’t mind waiting a couple years between expansions if it meant story as good as that again I’m ngl

no shade to anyone who likes the new release format esp SotO; I might not have liked it but if you do, I’m genuinely glad. It just wasn’t to my personal tastes
