How tf couldn't you see that your specific niche of writing is the one that will be hardest hit by derivative AI bullshit that no one wished existed but now drowns out everything decent?

I haven't read any of those pride and prejudice but with zombies! Type books, but I feel the jokes pretty much going to wear thin after the second or third page. Like after the cover, the blurb and maybe like one page you can just go wild with puns or what ever sort of "jokes" they put in those things, I think you should pretty much call it a day.

From the looks of things, she used a predecessor of the current programs to write a bunch of her stuff. Her stance is largely, "I can't do anything to stop this technology developing, so I might as well make the most of it" along with a bit of ladder kicking because she's made her money before the current trend we're seeing

I was going crazy trying to remember the name of it too, believe me.
I remember watching the original short ages ago - no idea that it turned into a feature length thing, with planned sequels no less.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?
You know that scene in the animatrix where people are just kicking around the machines and it seems so cruel.

It seems strange that hand drawn animation seems so dead in the water yet stop motion seems to be limping along but that's probably a frequency bias thing but I'm kinda glad at least one still exists

There's still a lot of animated 2d shorts being made and most indie animated films seem to be either 2d or stop motion.

I mean if you look at this random list of best independent animated films of the 2010's they're all pretty much just 2d or stop motion.
https://www.zippyframes.com/news/top-indie-animation-features-decade

But yeah, mainstream animated films unfortunately seem to pretty much all be 3d now days which sucks. Not that you can't do some beautiful looking films in 3d but a lot of them do seem pretty samey in their animation style to me. I think the big studios just like the 3d as it so much easier to do a bunch big sweeping camera flying all over the place type shots. Doing that in 2d while possible just takes sooooo much more time to do without looking like complete garbage. Done well I think though it can often show particular fast motion better with a lot of animation tricks to exaggerate or lessen the feel of the motion depending on what's needed, rather than just having a simulated film camera move through a scene (I mean 3d films will use tricks showing motion as well but never really see it to the degree as 2d films).

Don't know if this is from The Shivering Truth but it's definitely the same animation company.

If y'all haven't watched that and liked Wonder Showzen/Xavier: Renegade Angel, it's basically 3rd generation "whatever that was." WS was Sesame Street on recreational Adderall, Xavier was stoner Western Buddhism with a proto-vaporwave sheen, and Shivering Truth is a particularly goth-y philosophy student who remembered to have a sense of humor.

No that's Robert Morgan, the dude who did Belial's Dream and The Cat With Hands. He's been making creepy stop motion for years. Here's one of my favorites!

Yeah that is really a not-O.K. part of federal employment, though I guess the positive? is that if 17-years-in-dietary-department employee were a fed she could almost certainly take another 6 months off unpaid without losing her job. Not...not that this would help much if she is basically broke like the message suggests

I’m sure the vast majority of people aren’t stupid enough to fall for this bullshit. But I guess if owned a store with self checkout machines, I’d figure it couldn’t hurt to try and milk some people out of a few more bucks :shrug:
