    The New SN Update

    Even though it’s very well-known at this point, it’s still the star of the day; the new Stick Nodes update. Not a big one, but certainly a useful one, with a variety of different tools and such. But other than that, it is a good day for content, with very nice figures, news, and ideas. Maybe this is unrelated, but I look forward to seeing the animations that come from the pixelate and motion blur option!
    Check it out;

    Final notes…
    A lot of the time that I do the Site Log there’s an SN update, though I don’t know if that’s a bad thing. It makes a perfect headline, so I don’t know. In other words, this definitely isn’t a bad day for the site at all, some really good posts hidden in a heap of good posts. I would also like to apologize for being late to the site log again. I figure it’s probably fine, as long as it’s before 9 MST.
    Question, though; what do you think of AI generated art/writing?

    Have a good day 🙂

    • personally speaking, I think AI is fine as a tool and purely as a tool only, going beyond that and calling it “the future” or replacing actual artists and writers is a braindead take by some techbro who wants to get some early bird benefits by being a AI dickrider from the very beginning

      it’s very useful as a tool for things like placeholder assets or references, but don’t expect the AI to make the final products for you, treat it as a tool, not like some magical thing that can generate viable outputs out of thin air, you still need human input and talent to make an output actually good

        I 100% agree with you on that
