peter brown!

Please listen to Bernie. We need to get a handle on AI before things spiral completely out of control.

@ToonHive This has been true forever, btw.

Some Oscar voters have reportedly chosen to skip voting in the Best Animated Feature category this year, according to anonymous voters. “When my kids were little I used to be much more up to speed on this category, but now I’m not, so I’m sitting it out.”

An AI-generated video of Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise fighting in a rooftop is going viral, with people saying AI is getting too realistic

@TheMrWulff12 Ha! What qualifies as writing this back? Does this count?! Thanks for reading!

@itspeterbrown Mr. Brown, my 7th grade class is now on Book 3, and we could not be happier to be in this world. After the first one, they wanted to finish the whole series so far. My class wrote to you too. We’ve got a 7134 tattoo bet on the line that you’d write us back :) no pressure.

I ❤️ this book trailer for my new picture book THE WILD ROBOT ON THE ISLAND. #thewildrobot #books #childrensbooks #robots #illustration

#thewildrobot stomped into theaters 1 year ago! A kid recently told me they read the book in about 90 minutes, less than the runtime of the movie. So if u had time to watch the movie I hope you can find time to read the book that inspired it!

Friends + readers in the UK! I'm headed your way next month for a book tour to celebrate all things #thewildrobot + I'm so excited to share my new picture book, The Wild Robot On The Island. I'd love it if you could help me spread the word + I hope to see you at one of my events!

I had a great time chatting with @ArtEddy3 about fatherhood, writing + illustration, and Wild Robot, among other things. Give it a listen!

Atlanta area friends! Join me on Tuesday September 2 at 6:30pm at the @dekalblibrary in Decatur, where I'll do an author/illustrator talk and book signing. Books sold by my pals at Little Shop of Stories! I hope to see you there! #bookstagram #books #childrensbooks #illustration

@TsuiAllen @emreadsthebooks @parmy Although I’ve made a career from a character with an AI mind, in reality I have VERY mixed feelings about the AI technologies hurtling toward us. At this pace of development I think a robot like Roz will be possible in my lifetime. But dangerous robots will also be possible.

@emreadsthebooks @parmy As I teach Primary and some Secondary Computing, my take on AI is to help others understand that globally I think we are a long way from having technology like @itspeterbrown "Wild Robot" being commercially affordable. You are not alone in how you feel about AI.
