  • Instructors and art books literally give permission to use them as a “stepping stone” by definition. The entire point of them is to offer input to other artists.

    Also the main difference is that a human has a human mind and is making creative decisions unique to that human. The problem is that a narrow AI algorithm cannot be anything BUT derivative. They don’t think, they don’t have a mind that filters the data through a unique perspective, they just process the data like a series of conveyer belts. If you never give a human any input from other artists they can still make art, that’s why we have cave paintings. But a narrow AI algorithm needs specific input via specific pieces of art or else it can’t create anything. With that in mind permission and consent is much more important to the artists whose specific pieces are being fed into the algorithm. It’s generally considered good form to credit inspiration in derivative work, but we understand that human nature means that humans may not always remember or realize what or who inspired them. AI doesn’t have that excuse. We are perfectly capable of only feeding images that we are given permission to use into AI, and we are perfectly capable of having the AI log and report what works it used data from.




  • If she feels anxious or on the alert while outside then petting could cause her to feel overstimulated. For cats just being around you is a way for them to show affection, so if she doesn’t like being overstimulated that may be why she’s avoiding physical affection. Try just letting her sniff your fingers and maybe rub herself against you, and if she let’s you, keep the petting to just her head if she’s alright with that much. Then let her leave if she wants to. If even that much is unwanted then that’s okay, just avoid petting her. Being near you seems to be enough for her. But it is definitely a sign that she cares about you, if she follows you the whole way.







  • I considered that at first but there are a lot of long title series that don’t fall under the isekai umbrella, while the isekais that fall under the shounen umbrella tend to still have the shorter titles.

    It just so happens that most isekai fall under the shoujo/ecchi/comedy umbrella, hence the large amount of overlap. So while there’s definitely an association, I wouldn’t necessarily consider it an isekai thing specifically.








  • Bro, I don’t know how you missed this, but your church is the minority among Christians. I come from a large Christian family so I’m not saying that as someone who hates Christians, I’m saying that as someone with two eyes and common sense. And I’m also someone who is not straight so I’m also speaking from experience myself. Christians who ignore these issues within their community are only enabling them. I get that you feel defensive about your religion because it’s a part of who you are so an attack on it feels like an attack on you, but if you really care about it then you should be motivated to work on improving it so it can live up to your love for it, instead of getting mad at people for being rightfully unhappy about a group that has a long, long history of abusing lgbt people, and which hasn’t exactly done a lot in recent years to improve their reputation.
