What is this about the tumblr staff wanting to sell art data to midjourney?

An ex-colleague of mine mentioned yesterday that there may be contacts between Automattic and midjourney in that direction, but nothing is public yet and I don't have any more info. They probably won't have anything specific to share either, since they left the company weeks ago too. That being said:

I have no reason to doubt my ex-coworker word, they are a trustworthy person.

Tumblr's CEO has been absurdly enthusiastic (comically, even) about AI, and is a big fan of LLMs and 'AI' companies.

A deal with midjourney could solve tumblr financial issues (not the same company, but openAi is paying up to 5 million/year to news companies to use their content as training data... tumblr generates several orders of magnitude more content than any newspaper or any media company and it only would need a 20 to 30 million per year deal to be profitable)

So I don't have any extra info yet, but I'm keeping my ears open.

Obviously it's TFP, he's the only right answer, he has TENTACLES

Help a human and their cat move from abuse, organized by Kayla Boros

Hello, I’m Kayla. I’m a 19 year old queer kid who lives in the middle of Canad… Kayla Boros needs your support for Help a human and their c

Hello, this isn’t a normal post and I’m sorry I haven’t posted art.

But I’m going through a shit storm of life right now and I didn’t want it to come down too this but I’ve created a go fund me. I need to leave this place and never turn back. I’d appreciate donations/if you cannot donate even just sharing would do so much for me. I’m going to pin this too my profile, I honestly don’t know what else too say because I’m so overwhelmed with everything going in but please consider donating or sharing.

i am not joking we need to force teach cooking in schools. like. it is an essential thing for survival. do you know how easy it is to make things if you know even the bare bones shit about how cooking works. we need to teach teenagers how far you can take an onion and some other veggies it''s sad that people grow up not knowing how to prepare literally anything. and i'm not talking about oh this home ed class taught me how to make chicken nuggets at home i'm talking about learning the balancing of sweetness and acidity and saltiness and bitterness and shit like that and techniques and oil temperatures and how meats cook. it needs to be taught because it's literally not even that difficult and it matters so much

here's my art fight card btw.. I guess...

Hey, y'all. Newsflash for all you people clogging up the various Cluster-B tags with bullshit “Narcissistic Abuse” type shit.

People with Cluster-B disorders aren’t your fucking scapegoats. We aren’t here for you to point at and say “those people are monsters, we’re better than them because we aren’t like them”. You don’t get to call yourself a better person than me because you can feel empathy and I can’t, you don’t get to say that people like me are nothing but abusers and monsters without giving us even the ghost of a chance, and you don’t get to use our disorders as the reasons for everything wrong with the world.

That politician isn’t a “Narcissist” he’s a bad person who is too privileged to care about other people. That celebrity isn’t a “Sociopath” she just is more focused on wealth and showing off than actually helping people. All you do when you give bad people an armchair diagnosis is stigmatize and harm a vulnerable group of people and give shitty people an excuse as to why they’re bad people.

Trying to pretend that all bad people have to have some kind of disorder only hurts us. Yes, you can be a bad person without a personality disorder. Yes, you can hurt people without a personality disorder.

People like you hurt people, and people like me take the blame.

Take some fucking responsibility and stop acting like you are some kind of a good person because you weren’t traumatized so horribly you lost your ability to feel empathy. I’m not here to be a scapegoat so that you feel better about yourself.

You don’t need empathy to be a good person, and having empathy doesn’t automatically make you not a bad one.

Fuck guys. For a few years now I've been insisting that something is seriously wrong and for years now they've been insisting that sometimes people just don't make their own blood and have refused any further testing. I even made a shirt that read "I went to the doctor and all they tested was my patience" and wore it to appointments. Doctors found it funny. They then told me I was fat and sometimes people don't make their own blood. I took an advocate with me. Someone able bodied and respectable. We were informed still that sometimes it be like that.

FAT. DO Y'ALL KNOW I'M FAT!?!

Turns out I had cancer. It's confirmed. All this time I've had cancer.
