Little Things That Make You Smile 7: The Joy Department

Sounds good. I'm constantly mulling whether getting Swiss citizenship myself, even when I'll be able to keep my Italian passport.
Don't know, it feels so strange having a second citizenship.

[kryss]

Feels boss. I should try for a third.

[endo]

I'm probably going to apply for an Italian passport, as we got the kids theirs last year in addition to their UK ones. The wife is looking at British citizenship too. Makes sense in the current circumstances, I suppose.

I really need to sort out my Irish passport.

It took me a very long time to realise what the issue was

My shop is a launch venue for these beers tonight which I'm really pleased about as we're one of only two in Scotland who have them. I'm going to top off what should be a busy night with a watch of Army Of Darkness when I get home.

A shocking number of people on those boards/threads of AI images will tell you to get lost if you ask what prompts they used. Cracks me up.

Bunch of people think the ability to type the tags they know from Booru porn sites and hit "GENERATE" makes them an artist

Jokes aside, because I've done a lot of investigation into AI "art". As a rule, I don't criticise things I don't understand, so when this stuff exploded, I did all the tutorials, followed all the examples, and tried it out. Don't take that as a sign of approval, though; I have very strong objections to the use of AI generated images in professional work, for all the usual ethical reasons.

Better knowing than not knowing. Given the prevalence of AI and the possibilities from here, even though it will render so many people in my business redundant (quite possibly me included) and mostly through partial theft of their work, I think we’ll very quickly realise that worrying about artists is pretty quaint. The implications of AI go so much bigger than that.

I work a lot with images in my job and photshop have just added a load of new Ai tools to the latest release, one thing that really used to p me off was the endless clipping paths id have to create to remove the background from an image, its one click now. They have taken a really mundane part of my job and made it a breeze which im all for they havent replaced me they just made my job easier. I'm not against these sort of things that make your life easier, take the mundane tasks away and give me more time for the actual creative stuff.

I think eventually to create design for clients we will be pointing creative cloud, towards content and clicking generate, at this point it will be all about fixing and tweaking what the AI has generated as clients are never happy.
