To celebrate reaching 777 followers on Twitter/X, here's a challenge for artists : Take an AI-generated image and redraw it in your own style!

Here's my version with Nora. It's not perfect, but at least it has emotion and a soul behind it. ^^

The goal of this challenge, the redraw, is to prove that the human hand is still useful :)

You don't have to participate if you don't want to ^^' If you participate, it's cool ^^ Whether you're a digital artist or a traditional artist (on paper), a professional or an amateur (even those who aren't very good at drawing), everyone can participate ^^ Just remember to include the link to the source in your reply to your post if you do so. Crediting is important, even when it's a prompt made by AI 🙏

Or, you can use the prompt I used to make your own redraw, but remember to credit x) This challenge I'm launching isn't intended to reignite the drama, it's just to have a good time in a good-natured atmosphere ^^

P.S. : I know it's extremely risky to launch such a challenge, but nothing ventured, nothing gained, as they say x)

The source link for the prompt is in the image description or go here !

An observation

[echoingbulb]

[lazymonth]

Idk what’s happening to me or why this is happening to me but I’m take this ship seriously than I should

I’m literally thinking it was a funny joke at first but as long I’m thinking about it, I started to like this crack ship…

The International Energy Agency estimates that data centres’ total electricity consumption could double from 2022 levels to 1,000TWh (terawatt hours) in 2026, approximately Japan’s level of electricity demand.

AI will result in data centres using 4.5% of global energy generation by 2030

Data centres play a crucial role in training and operating the models that underpin AI models 

Pledges to reduce CO2 emissions are now coming up against pledges to invest heavily in AI products that require considerable amounts of energy for training and deployment in data centres, along with carbon emissions associated with manufacturing and transporting the computer servers and chips used in that process.

Water usage is another environmental factor in the AI boom, with one study estimating that AI could account for up to 6.6bn cubic metres of water use by 2027 – nearly two-thirds of England’s annual consumption.

do y'all ever wonder how shin felt during the last battle with maple? watching the ai of his younger self being destroyed while begging for its life?

I feel like there's some symbolism there maybe

The second redraw ~! ✨✌️

A word of advice : Don't stand next to Nora, to her right, or… 💀💫

It's never pleasant to get kicked in the head (intentionally or not)! 😵

"He and I are closer than friends. We are enemies linked together. The same sin binds us."

So. Here's some possible bg/lore mixing - idk if normal, 'non-secret service/intelligence agency' humans in this universe know vampires exist but disregarding that -

I think a lot of the vampires, esp the ones in space, are pretty high generation or thin-bloods (i.e. they're weak). Originally Locus + Felix were on the v edge of being thin-bloods (like gen 13) but... they're not anymore. The wonders of diablerie - not that they really advertise it. Views on that haven't really changed. They're also autarki aka freelance/mercenaries, but I dunno when they were Embraced; could've been before, during or after the War. Doesn't rly matter that much, they can all work imo but at least for Locus post-War works best

Locus could have either the Blood Addiction bane or the Noxious Blood bane since I think both could work for him, and Felix would have the classic Ravnos Bane of needing to move around.

I'll post more thoughts abt why I chose those clans for them + more abt sharky etc a bit later bc I don't want this to be too long lol <3

Is AI fr gonna steal our jobs?

Disclaimer: This post is mostly speculative and meant to encourage discussion and different perspectives on the topic.

Some time ago, I along with many others thought that AI was mostly going to aid in all the task centered, administrative, repetitive jobs. Cashiers, factory workers, call center workers, all the jobs that would benefit from automation were being taken over by AI.

When the ghibli trend came around, it was a guttural shock to many artists.

What used to generate questionable and bad looking art has now developed and is transitioning to generating high quality pieces, videos, music, animation and what not. In a matter of mere months. [AI tools example: midjourney, DALL-E, ChatGPT]

Art is not simply something pretty to look at. It is the accumulation of experiences, emotions and essense of humans. Art is their unique expression and the lens with which they see the world.

This blog is not an argument against the use of AI for art, but a call to understand what it really means.

Did most people see it coming when AI mimicked it with precision?

How long before it starts mimicking creativity, intuition, emotion and depth, all of what we thought was deeply and uniquely human?

"AI works by learning from lots of information, recognizing patterns, and using that knowledge to make decisions or do tasks like a human would." - Chatgpt.

Some time ago, the dominant argument was that AI might be able copy the strokes of a painting, the words of a novel. But it cannot hold the hands of another human and tell them all was well, it cannot feel and experience the real world like us, it cannot connect with humans and it cant innovate and envision new solutions.

If you still believe this, I urge you to go to chatgpt right now and open up to it like it was your friend. It will provide consolidation and advice tailored so well to your individual behaviours that it might feel better than talking to your bestfriend.

What is a deep neurological, experience based and emotional reaction to us is simply just analysis and application of data and patterns to AI. And the difference? Not easily distinguishable to the average human.

As long as the end result is not compromised, it doesnt matter to client and employers whether the process was human or not. Efficiency is often prioritized above substance. And now even substance is being mimicked.

Currently, the prominent discussion online is that in order to improve your job security, we need to master AI tools. Instead of fighting for stability(which is nothing but an illusion now) we need to ride the waves of the new age flooding towards us, and work with Ai instead of fighting against the change.

But the paradox is, the more we use AI the quicker it will learn from us, the quicker it will reduce the need for human guidance and supervision, and the quicker it will replace us.

Times are moving fast. We need everyone to be aware of the rate at which the world is changing and the things that are going on beneath the surface. If we simply take information at face value and avoid research, give it a few years or even months of time, and noone will know what hit us.

"Use of generative AI increased from 33% in 2023 to 71% in 2024. Use of AI by business function for the latest data varied from 36% in IT to 12% in manufacturing. Use of gen AI by business function for the latest data varied from 42% in marketing and sales to 5% in manufacturing."-Mckinsey, Mar 12, 2025.

By 2030, 14% of employees will have been forced to change their career because of- AI-McKinsey.

Since 2000, automation has resulted in 1.7 million manufacturing jobs being lost -BuiltIn

There is a radical change taking momentum right now. It's gonna be humans vs AI starting from the job aspect of the world.

Its not a matter of which jobs and skills are AI proof but which ones is AI likely to take over last.

What I predict personally, is that soon the world leaders are going to have to make a transformative choice.

This can either lead to a world where humans can be provided with money and resources instead of working to earn, as AI generates profit, and we can lay back and enjoy the things we love doing.

Or the other option is that we are going to have to live by scraps as small elite groups take over all the resources and tech.

Dystopia or utopia? The line is blurred.

Thankfully, for now, the choice is in human hands.

Im so embarrassed i didnt know it was AI...

its okay, not everyone has the eye for, or are knowledgeable on how to tell the difference, so lets break it down a bit.

first things first, look for things in the image that do not make sense

such as this. What the hell is this supposed to be? because i couldn't fucking tell you.

secondly, notice how all other text except the one one you're supposed to pay attention to is completely illegible.

These barely even look like actual letters. even simple graffiti like this would still be legible

And the biggest offender to me is-

the main text/ paint job. if this were real, the paint would be faded and chipped to hell and back, and if it were and art piece a la trevor henderson, the drips on the lettering would be more consistent and not as muddled.

When Spirits Inspire: Rosemary Brown’s Musical Mediumship

Rosemary Brown’s extraordinary claims of channeling music from the likes of Chopin, Liszt, and Debussy have long fascinated and polarized audiences, sparking a maelstrom of debate at the nexus of creativity, spirituality, and skepticism. On one hand, her alleged ability to produce works reminiscent of the great masters, despite modest musical training, challenges conventional wisdom on the origins of artistic expression. On the other, the lack of empirical evidence to substantiate her claims invites skepticism, underscoring the tension between the human propensity for belief and the rigors of rational inquiry.

At the heart of Brown’s paradox lies the question of creativity’s essence: is artistic expression inherently personal and earthly, or can it transcend mortal boundaries, tapping into a collective, eternal reservoir of creative potential? Proponents of Brown’s claims point to the advanced harmonies and tonality characteristic of the channeled composers’ styles, suggesting a supernormal origin that defies earthly explanation. Conversely, skeptics dismiss the works as either unacknowledged personal talent or fabrication, highlighting the human capacity for self-delusion and the fallibility of perception. Notably, the decision of renowned pianists to record her works lends a degree of credibility to their stylistic authenticity, yet this does not conclusively prove the paranormal aspect of her claims.

The subjective nature of evaluating artistic merit, particularly when authorship is in question, further complicates the debate. Expert opinions on the compositions’ quality are sharply divided, reflecting the intricate dance between technical skill, psychological factors, and the observer’s predispositions. This dichotomy underscores the need for a balanced assessment, one that considers both the compositional nuances and the contextual influences shaping perception. By acknowledging the complexities of human experience, we may better understand the motivations and beliefs underlying Brown’s claims, and indeed, the broader implications of her case.

Brown’s background, marked by adversity, might suggest a predisposition to seeking comfort in spiritualism. However, investigations revealing no evidence of deception or mental aberration, coupled with portrayals of her sincerity and unassuming nature, complicate skeptical viewpoints. This finding highlights the importance of approaching such cases with empathy, recognizing that the human psyche is capable of navigating extraordinary experiences without necessitating deception or pathology. By doing so, we open ourselves to a deeper understanding of the intricate relationships between art, spirituality, and the human experience.

The far-reaching implications of Brown’s story extend beyond the realm of music or her personal life, contributing to fundamental discussions about consciousness and the possibility of life after death. For some, her channeling serves as anecdotal evidence reinforcing the notion of an afterlife, where creative energies persist beyond the mortal coil. Skeptics, conversely, view it as a testament to human creativity and the boundless potential of the human mind, even in the face of adversity. Brown’s case encourages a thoughtful examination of the interplay between belief, creativity, and the human experience, inviting us to reflect on the mysteries surrounding us.
