doooooo anything today

You get the whole walk cycle and the little sprint at the end.

Sometimes her sprints last for like 4 or 5 seconds and she can shoot herself off the couch or into a wall if she gets a grip with her back claws. If she does it next to a wall, her head smacking into it sounds like someone is trying to break into the house. She doesn't wake up.

we're looking to create an AI policy, and when we were talking about this, my boss (older millennial) was genuinely shocked to hear that younger people do not (seem) to view AI positively (a la the recent commencement speakers being booed)

Another comic I made this year, and possibly my silliest one?

Female birds with confusing names.

I know this not only because the face and ears are all wrong, but also because the idiot computer gave this animal long claws when it very famously has weird little suction cup feet used to grip rocks. Here’s what a rock hyrax’s feet actually look like

I know generative AI is not generally viewed favorably on this website and I’m kind of preaching to the choir here but this really frustrates me.

Internet search results being tainted with these inaccurate animal AI photos is absolutely going to degrade our collective knowledge base. Many artists and scientific illustrators use image search engines to find reference photos, and if you didn’t know what hyrax feet look like it’d be super easy to miss that this photo is not real.
