This is absolutely true. My friend has 100 songs he’s worked on stick on cassette, he played them into Suno and produced finished songs that are fantastic. Now he can put them out and I really enjoyed hearing them. I’m doing junk animation in grok and having the tone of my

The most consistent pattern I’ve noticed since the AI shift: The creators who are actually in the arena love generative tech because it acts as a massive force multiplier for their vision. They want to get the stories out of their heads. The loudest gatekeepers are almost

I created Earthworm Jim and got Game of the Year in 1994. We made the Neverhood, Skullmonkeys and worked on scores of other simple, fun, wonderful games before teams got bloated and inefficient. Being a conservative Christian caused a secular progressive culture to end

Too many game studios that are owned by massive corporations. @xAI is going to start an AI game studio to make games great again!

My dad got the vaccine and went to the hospital for blood clots. I merely asked if he thought it could have been the vaccine and @YouTube wiped my channel of 455k subs. Today the FDA agreed with me. Is it asking too much for @TeamYouTube to apologize?

I've been a muralist and large-scale artist for over 35 years. I did this Lincoln on my own back wall in under an hour using a projector: youtu.be/Eg7BSi4oR0Q?si… Enlarging measurements and doing the painting isn't the hard work with murals, it's getting permission from the

That level is Lorenzo’s Soildesigned by my best friend Mark Lorenzen. We met as freshmen in college and I got him hired at Shiny and he co designed the Neverhood w me. He went on to be a lead programmer on lots of game AI for EA. If @elonmusk wants to make great games we have the

I named Earthworm Jim after my big brother Jim TenNapel, who is a long haul trucker between Montana and Alaska!

This is an eye-ball I drew with a 12-pack of Crayola crayons. If you are complaining about Ai taking jobs and not requiring any skill yet you use Photoshop or any digital aid, you deserve to lose this argument and probably your job too.

I'm seeing the Steven Crowder divorce show up in my feed. I've been on his show and am friends with his father. Steven's sins are obvious and indefensible, but if you took a secret video of my worst moments when arguing with my wife, I wouldn't come out well in anyone's eyes.

AI is going to allow fans to do amazing things with my characters. I made them because I thought something like EWJ should exist. It was like a hole in the world was missing. Once made, the fans drew him. It wasn’t an art contest, but was how even children express their love of

@ScottAdamsSays is a liberal (he should repent) and was canceled by the liberal hivemind. Step out of line and you can't eat. Liberals are terrible for the arts, human expression and merit. To everyone cheering at his demise, they'll come for you too. The future is indie.

Dilbert has been cancelled from all newspapers, websites, calendars, and books because I gave some advice everyone agreed with. (My syndication partner canceled me.) Dilbert (and more) will only be available on the subscription site scottadams.locals.com when sorted out.
