Tbh I've been toying with the idea of changing job/ industries for a while, maybe this is my cue..? Fashion brands are money-oriented above all else, so it's inevitable that ai will come and stay here. Hmmm
Oof... Learned today that the brand I used to work for is hiring graphic designers again and one of the requirements is, behold, 'experience/ familiarity working with Midjourney'. Said brand build its entire reputation on working (and priding itself in it!) with artists and showcasing their art, and taking parts in various artistic events. I have no words.
I knew AI would come for fashion industry rather quickly (especially for surface patterns), but seeing it (and from familiar source) it extremely discouraging still.

Thank you much for yesterday wishes!🤧💕 You absolute sweethearts, it truly warms my sad shriveled heart. Love you all!!💚💚💚
Another year older today!🌷
Wish I was able to draw something, but my brain was (still is) a total wasteland lately. A barren land. I try to reason with myself it's a time to rest and gather inspiration reading, watching and researching stuff, but you know how it goes - still frustrating. Pls wish me to get some of my creative juice back again soon 🥲

Hello! I come with some good news! In the EU, a law has been passed restricting generative AIs (particularly ones that pose a high risk). I hope other areas in the world follow suit, but this is huge! It'll take a while to be applied as well, though this is still a major win for everyone.

Got reminded of this today~ HERE's the playlist with full eps!
If you're fond of Urasawa Naoki's Manben or Archipel, it's worth checking out! Sadly, untranslated so far.
I had no idea this even existed, but it’s quite fantastic! It’s a segment from the NHK series Shojo comic o kaku about drawing shojo manga, where they visit a new manga artist in every episode and film them drawing. These 12 segments are up on youtube:
Hagio Moto (above)
Takemiya Keiko
Ichijo Yukari
Miuchi Suzue
Ikeda Riyoko
Yamato Waki
Morita Jun
Shoji Yoko
Takaguchi Satosumi
Yoshida Mayumi
Asagiri Yu
Yachi Emiko and Tominaga Hiromi
The commentator is Satonaka Machiko, herself a legendary manga artist.
eta: This is also quite funny because a lot of the artists are drawing manga while dressed in pretty dresses and wearing perfect makeup, lol. They would never unless there was a camera there.
