My unified opinion on AI and such, put into one place. It's not that different from most artists / indie web folks' opinions, but if you want it. Anyway, I have a Nekoweb just in case, but I don't think that a blog post from Kyle last year which no acting on has happened in relation to Neocities is really worth that much concern at the moment. https://draggianuniverse.neocities.org/miscellanea/generativealgorithms

FYI given the Neocities creator supporting AI art, and just in general -- I do have a Nekoweb "mirror" in case anything happens. (it's not actually a mirror at the moment vs. just my short profile because my site is too big. I keep backups; don't worry, so stuff will be ported iff I have to leave.) --> https://draggianuniverse.nekoweb.org/
Ronnie has been Doing Things. Who allowed him to. Update on the State of FIR: https://draggianuniverse.neocities.org/musicscene/thestateofFIR (not being vague, there are some new merch designs and a really weird business model for how they came out, and I have thoughts on them.)

Also, I realized that he Did a very interesting Thing in relation to me personally back in June, but I never put that on Neocities, so it is now. And yes, this is the appropriate category. https://draggianuniverse.neocities.org/musicscene/musings/unflatteringfanart

The "iff" is not a typo; it's the logical operator "if and only if". I refuse to sign up for either provider's premium until I have to, my site's too big to go on Nekoweb free, I've got better things to do than maintain two copies, and I hate Nekoweb's editor and UI.
by the way, does anyone have an original source for this copypasta / the statement from the neocities creator?
hi, this is what i've seen other people link: https://kyledrake.com/writings/ai. the article is from 2023, you can see the date posted on the homepage.
ok, thanks. so, uh, if it's from 2023, why are people bringing it up now? if he's kept that nonsense out of neocities for the past year (and the generative crap hype bubble seems to be popping) and he knows what his userbase is, seems unlikely that'll change.
