I would never accuse anyone of using AI

Sat, 22 Aug 2026 17:49:16 +0000

Ultimately my point is, no matter how much I'm certain something is AI, I would not say it out loud, because I always have a capacity to hurt a real artist in doing so. I just want people to stop going "uuhhh guys I think this is AI look at the tells" because it only hurts real people and is simply just really annoying.

When online commenters 'detect' my art as AI - David Revoy

Mon, 10 Aug 2026 22:17:34 +0000

Here is a collection of screenshots (obfuscated) of dozens and dozens of online comments from many platforms (Reddit, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook) containing accusations or confusion that my artworks and comics are AI-generated. Despite creating every piece by hand, despite sharing timelapses, the comments keep coming, and they're getting stronger.

You won't read this

Sun, 03 May 2026 04:22:49 +0000

When all the places I might socialize and share in are dominated by people who spend all day posting about how much they hate a technology and anyone who uses it, it's not really a place I want to be. Why would I want to be around people who are relentlessly and confidently wrong about things I've taken the time to understand?

When Poole Museum reopens visitors will once again be able to see Bethan's Rock - a treasured stone donated by a five-year-old girl - alongside its other artefacts The rock became a popular exhibit after the museum placed it in a glass case, complete with its own "Bethan's Rock – 2019," label. Bethan, now 11, said it was given to her by her late grandmother, "who was the one who found that rock... it's really special to me because of her". The museum's curator Gary Edwards said: "Treasures don't have to be rare, they don't have to be significant to everybody it's about the deeper meaning connected to those objects."

The diminished art of coding | Read the Tea Leaves

Mon, 23 Mar 2026 16:58:57 +0000

My advice to other coders, or at least the advice I’m taking myself, is that if you’re looking for art in coding: stop looking. If you’ve never taken an interest in poetry, or painting, or dance, or whatever, now would be a good time. In an era where the internet is increasingly full of bots pumping their bland bot ideas into everybody’s brains, seeking out distinctly human forms of expression has become vital.

Stellar Harvest — Center for PostNatural History

Thu, 04 Dec 2025 18:24:33 +0000

Pell designed the Stellar Harvest project to use the light-concentrating power of a large reflecting telescope to gather light from the brightest available star in the night sky for the smallest light-loving microorganisms on Earth - phytoplankton. The project will examine the ability of a type of phytoplankton known as diatoms, which are found in every aquatic environment on the planet and responsible for a significant amount of the oxygen we breathe, to grow off the light from a star.
