We are idiots.

hundreds of thousands of processors to imitate what an infant does before it's fully potty trained. We are all proclaiming AI sentient because it "says" it loves us while so many different types of animals doing incredible feats of intelligence are disregarded as stupid.

There's no intelligence in AI. AI doesn't learn, doesn't understand, doesn't perceive, doesn't intend. Someday there might be actual artificial intelligence, but we are still eons away from it. All we have right now is human arrogance and a text prediction software that requires

@arvalis Oh, him. Definitely!

@BoneKrishna like him

Thank you all for the kind words and support. Here's some more weirdness for you!

@arvalis Like who?

@BoneKrishna it looks exactly like him!

@DukeGunston Aw shucks, thank you! You're too kind.

@BoneKrishna This is way better than popular things! Such great work. I personally find them super inspiring!

It's hard to know if people actually like when I paint these weird things that I find interesting. I could be way more popular painting popular things, but I don't like painting them. I like new stuff, things I haven't seen before. I like to paint weird stuff.

Feeling like a meat bag

@arvalis I'm back! And this time it's personal.

@BoneKrishna missed you!

Heyo, I've been away for a while. It's hard to keep up with social media sometimes. It's a lot of effort for practically no return at all. But it's nice when you hear that you've inspired someone or just gave them something fun to look at for a while.

I love the way light interacts with different materials. I mean, that's the basic of painting since it's the basic of seeing. No light, no image. But beyond that, light is so incredible. I'm glad we evolved to enjoy it!

Some animated sequences for Smiling Friends S3

Why was I invited to Beast Studios? youtu.be/0dwagg5wYY4

A Kaiju starts to question its reality.

Every now and then you paint something silly that just resonates with your soul. This is one of my favorites stupid paintings ever. I love Its blank stare.

Open for work! 18 years experience in AAA games film/tv. What have I worked on? 6 Assassin's Creed games, Marvel MCU shows and films, Magic the Gathering cards, shorter stints on franchises like Deus Ex, Halo, Paths of Exile, Ghost in the Shell, Pirates of the Caribbean + more

Last Saturday I went to a concert! After about 20 years since the last time. And I proved once and for all that you can take an old punk out of the mosh pit, but you can't take away the pain from all of my joints and bones. I'm old!

Here's something silly I've found on my unfinished files. Lots of my artists friends have quit working with art. And I get it, society hardly ever gives you the chance to do what you love. So far I've been lucky, but I miss seeing my friends' art.

If you're an artist as well I have a quick question for you, for how long have you been doing art? Me, I've been doing it for about 21 years, as something that I'm serious about, but I've been drawing since as long as I can remember.
