"We don't have to do anything, we can just be"

When i realized Karlach x Astarion is a valid ship i went FERAL

I was worried that their frustrations/trauma could make things impossible for them, but they're actually soooo sweet together ><

I'm adding lineart vers too, bc i like how it shows a bit more brushwork :>

It's available on my shop!

The smell of betrayal & the scent of comfort.

ed zitron, a tech beat reporter, wrote an article about a recent paper that came out from goldman-sachs calling AI, in nicer terms, a grift. it is a really interesting article; hearing criticism from people who are not ignorant of the tech and have no reason to mince words is refreshing. it also brings up points and asks the right questions:

if AI is going to be a trillion dollar investment, what trillion dollar problem is it solving?

what does it mean when people say that AI will "get better"? what does that look like and how would it even be achieved? the article makes a point to debunk talking points about how all tech is misunderstood at first by pointing out that the tech it gets compared to the most, the internet and smartphones, were both created over the course of decades with roadmaps and clear goals. AI does not have this.

the american power grid straight up cannot handle the load required to run AI because it has not been meaningfully developed in decades. how are they going to overcome this hurdle (they aren't)?

people who are losing their jobs to this tech aren't being "replaced". they're just getting a taste of how little their managers care about their craft and how little they think of their consumer base. ai is not capable of replacing humans and there's no indication they ever will because...

all of these models use the same training data so now they're all giving the same wrong answers in the same voice. without massive and i mean EXPONENTIALLY MASSIVE troves of data to work with, they are pretty much as a standstill for any innovation they're imagining in their heads

I wanted to draw a lil' portrait of myself imagining how i would look like on hrt and after top surgery, finally being able to rock crop tops i want. It gave me so much gender euphoria, i can't even >< I can't wait to get further into transitioning medically, im trying to transition socially for now and .... its a struggle sometimes, but it's oh so worth it. In the end it became my new awatar, hope you like it :>

Also - i'm cooking some more arts in the back, i just have to somehow finish them and not start another milion new projects :"") Wish me luck with my chaotic mind...

I was just finishing that as i learned that Larian changed His Majesty model... Like why, he was perfect as a sphynx cat :<

Well, this could be also a Steelclaw... Both of them would definitely find a place in Astarion's heart 🐱💖
