canon is what happens in the text. e.g. merlin tries to poison morgana
a headcanon is a fact that you have personally made up as an elaboration of canon. it is your invention. e.g. i think morgana and gwen had a teenage lesbian situationship before the events of canon. or, i think modern morgana would love evanesence.
an interpretation is how one reads the existing text. it is not an invented fact nor is it a headcanon, it is a reading. e.g. i think merlin tries to poison morgana out of misplaced self-hatred. or, i think that one line was delivered with suppressed malice and shows a nuanced relationship.
fanon is the general fandom’s accepted headcanons and interpretations that elaborate or recontextualize canon. e.g. merlin is a badass waif and morgana is a bitch.
these are all different words with different meanings.
Disney has quietly released its first AI-produced animated series.
Bluey who?
“Earlier this week, with little fanfare or announcement, Disney and French-based AI-animation company Animaj released the first episodes of Ozzy Fox, an animated musical series targeting young children.
The first two episodes are available now on YouTube and are a big step forward in Disney’s plans to embrace AI slop.”
“Disney and Animaj quietly released two episodes of Ozzy Fox on YouTube.
The two episodes have already received over 750,000 views. The series features a family of anthropomorphic foxes,
and each episode will seemingly revolve around a song designed to help kids go to the bathroom, do their chores, and so on.
CartoonBrew reports no press release was sent out ahead of the show’s launch and that it was told the companies want the launch to “speak for itself.”
People have called the series not ugly, but very bland
“It’s that kind of AI-generated look where everything is a bit too smooth, shiny, and sharp.
I also noticed a few oddities, like a railing that seems unfinished in the background of many shots and a piano that seems to be missing most of its bottom half.
I also find it very telling that, as far as I can tell, there are no numbers or letters seen in the background. Hmm.”
how much AI?
“We don’t specifically know how Animaj used AI to produce Ozzy Fox, but the studio is very openly pro-AI and has fully integrated AI tools into its pipeline.”
“Animaj is pioneering a new category of studios where data informs creation, AI accelerates production, and distribution is built in from day one,” says the company on its official LinkedIn page.
“The company brags that it reaches over 240 million kids monthly on YouTube using shorts and animated cartoons produced with its “proprietary AI-powered, digital-first production model.””
Never underestimate the power of a comment fanfic readers.
I received one yesterday on a fic I wrote in 2020. I re-read that fic this morning. I fell back in love with that au version of Cherik. My mind would not let them go. I am writing a sequel to that fic and I’m 1,123 words in.
I don’t know if the fic will ever see the light of day, but if it does?
DuckDuckGo, Signal, and NordVPN all stated they may stop serving Canada if Bill C-22 passes.
Here is a petition against Bill C-22, which I believe can be signed by both citizens and residents of Canada (it will tell you when you fill it out).
Bill C-22 requires digital service providers to retain metadata on Canadians for up to a year and disclose it to authorities, who can request it without an individual being under suspicion or investigation. Even with planned adjustments to the bill to require encryption, this still represents a massive security issue. It also represents a huge privacy concern and raises concerns over Canadian protections from unreasonable search and seizure.
