Adobe Has Entered the AI Ring

A new challenger appears.

Go tell them how you feel about it.

I’m serious.

This post has been live for 19 hours, and they’re not pulling in nearly enough attention, I assume because everyone’s so fucking exhausted by the shit with CSP happening just last week.

I cannot stress enough: ADOBE IS THE IMPORTANT TARGET. Way more important than Clip Studio.

They set industry standards. They can force changes like this without giving a fuck about individual customers, because by and large their products are licensed hand over fist by everyone in the entertainment industry.

This is absolutely the time to mob the shit out of Adobe’s mentions.

The Lobster Dragon

Born from a conversation I was having with my missus. This design takes the visual stylings of a common lobster and extrapolates them across the form of a Dragon. Heavily armoured, fierce clamping jaw in place of a claw. The ability to filter microscopic food as well as larger offerings. I had great fun working this guy out.
