Item: The Couch Rarity: ⏶ Common
Couch co-op or online?
Feed your dashboard by answering my question, blogger.
Oh hey adorable yet terrifying eldritch abomination!
I prefer couch co-op because it's more fun to see your friends reactions to shenanigans, I'm not opposed to online though.
Ok, just wondering but honestly... what is the big deal to you that people are creating and using chat bots with your characters? It seems like almost all of them do give you proper credit.
I could see being upset if people were profiting from it (I'm more thinking the actual people and not the site, different issues, I can totally understand you having a problem with the site.) but you seem to be ok with people doing fanart and fanfics of your characters, so I don't really understand why your taking such a hard line with this and calling your fans who are using these bots "fucking ass dork losers" because they want to interact with your characters in a way that is a bit more responsive than just writing a fanfic.
Because I didn't give them permission to use my characters this way. And anyone who uses gen ai in any way is unfortunately, a fucking dork ass loser
I am explicitly stating that I do not give permission for any of my characters, stories, or other IP, to be used to train AI art, writing, or otherwise. Generative AI is a pretty new thing, relatively speaking, and it is also different from regular video game AI btw, which has been around pretty much forever. They’re two different things
I am allowed to be angry at anything for any reason. It’s not unfair for me to feel any type of way, especially in response to people using my characters in a way I don’t approve of.
I didn’t say anyone who’s ever interacted with gen AI is awful, I said they’re Fucking Dork Ass Losers ™️ (scientifically accurate title).
It sounds like you’re confusing me being upset with me like. Hunting them down and hitting them with my car. That would be unfair and a tiny bit of an overreaction. Would be very funny tho
I know most people aren’t shot out the pussy knowing everything there is to know about everything (like i was) so assuming you’re actually interested in learning why normal people hate gen AI so much, here’s a few things to bring you up to speed:
The spread of AI data centers is larger, more numerous, and faster-growing than anything that has come before to the electric utilities. The
Extracting Profits from the Public: How Utility Ratepayers Are Paying for Big Tech’s Power – Environmental and Energy Law Program
A single AI-focused data center can use as much electricity as a small city and as much water as a large neighborhood.
Psychology experts have many concerns about the potential impact of AI on the human mind.
As uncertainty around AI grows, artists need legal protections
(Also i just gotta point out the absurdity of trying to explain to somebody why you shouldn’t take someone else’s characters and feed them to an ai machine. Apologies to my followers who came for art and instead get. This LOL)
FUCKING PREACH IT, MARS
Don't ever feed an artist's art to AI, kids. Don't fucking do it. And I want to add a part that Mars didn't even bring up here: AI is *not* """accurate""" character representation, whether it's generated fics or chatbots. AI algorithms are designed to be people-pleasing, to be addictive, to have you coming back for more, to get you hooked. That's why it's called slop. Slop means there *is NO driving emotional logic* behind an AI's responses, no matter how convincing it seems. There is no *artist* or *author* present who is making *emotionally-relevant* choices for dialogue or story. It will always just be a machine trying to make the sloppy crack that you like that will keep you coming back to it. This is not even you interacting with a Disney World version of Cinderella, where there's an actor behind the mask directing the choices; this is you dealing with a homunculus, a wraith version of the thing that brought you joy in the first place. It will appear so seductively fun and easy and Exactly What You Want It To Be that you'll get fucking hooked and never have to go outside and deal with *real fucking people* who you might have a chance of building real fucking relationships with.
I also want to be clear: I've worked in the tech industry for over a decade. I'm not using techy or academic language on purpose because I want you to understand what's going on, but you can easily google this shit. "AI psychosis" is a good place to start.
Get off AI, kids. Get off of it, I beg of you. For all of the environmental and cognitive health reasons, but also so that you can engage with the world-and fandom-in a way that will actually enrich your life. Don't destroy the very joy that the art brought you in the first place.
And if it wasn't fucking clear.... don't be a Fucking Dork Ass Loser about my art either. I want to clearly say that I do not give anyone permission to put my art or writing in any AI under any circumstances.
I still draw sometimes! Currently obsessed with @hubedihubbe ‘s rodent characters to the point I wanted to doodle Leo!
(I also want to draw her Redley someday too I haven’t forgotten him)
Give your support !
EVERYONE(!) I’m blazing this post because at this pace we might barely hit 1,000,000 signatures—or just fall short. PLEASE reblog this post, no matter where you are from, so we can reach as many EU citizens as possible and end this horrible practice!
Oh boy nothing like running into a crapto shiller in the wild at my job. Pretending to want to give me a tip no less. Sir the job I work is fine I don’t need scams. May all your coffee be stale and every headphone go dead in only one ear….
Oh cool. Bots are back en masse again. I'm seeing a lot of things I wish I didn't :V
I hope this photographer won a prize
I feel like wanting things has been important to being happier for me
You apply for 20 jobs on Indeed. The silence is deafening.
You apply for 20 jobs on Indeed. Half of them require you to create an account on the company website. You leave a trail of ghost accounts that will be used once and never again. You never receive a response.
You apply for 20 jobs on Indeed. One employer offers an interview, but it's so rare for you to receive any response that you forget to check the website and you miss the time.
You apply for 20 jobs on Indeed. One employer offers an interview, but you don't know the magic words that signal to the esoteric mind of an interviewer that you're fit for the job.
You apply for 20 jobs on Indeed. One employer e-mails you saying that 'unfortunately, you do not have the qualifications we are looking for'. You check the job again and see you applied to be a menial labourer.
You apply for 20 jobs on Indeed. Half of them require a car. No one stops to ask how you're supposed to afford one with no job.
You apply for 20 jobs on Indeed. One employer offers a job. The commute makes you want to die in your sleep.
You call the HR manager for the workplace in hopes of arranging an interview more directly. They don't even have an answering machine.
Employers complain that no one wants to work anymore.
I just want the warmth of touch. I want to be the reason for a smile. I want to know what it means to be cherished. I want what is impossible for me.
LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK

Click on it twice. These are your two super powers.
everyone else always seems to fucking get cool shit and i always get like “gel manipulation” and “using dust along w/ your fighting style”
Vampire immunity and pain embodiment.
Animancy and Supernatural Immunity. That actually sounds pretty cool.
Recently has to revisit this art for print purposes. The old one (bottom) is actually one of the first Lackadaisy pieces I ever did, about an eon ago. It looks pretty crude and off-model to me now, but the idea was there, heh. Anyway, I thought it made for a sort of interesting then-and-now comparison. ——————————— Lackadaisy is on Patreon - there’s extra stuff!
My dash did a thing and I am wheezing 😂

Aaaand now bots are sending indecency directly to inboxes. Great job, staff. I really didn’t need to see that.
