Black arts

AI is causing quite the stir among the creative classes, specifically animators and comic book artists in this case. According to David Crownson, who focuses on stories about black characters: a white person could tell his AI to create an action adventure comic with black characters
. As if [spit] whytees aren't allowed to create black characters.
I'll let you into a little secret, Mr Crownson: [spit] whytees have always been able to create action adventure comics with black characters, even before the advent of AI, should they have wished.* They generally don't, because they don't want to play to a minority audience. So that aspect of your argument against AI, at least, is moot.
Susan Hornik illustrates the issue of AI in animation with the frame still above, taken from a GKIDS film, and the following caption:
This is a still from animated film Unicorn Wars, which did not involve the use of AI, but would you been able to guess?

Actually, the still looks generic enough that it could easily have been the product of AI. This is not meant as a compliment to the power of AI though.
Other than that, the only thing of interest in Hornik's article was the revelation that the Gibbs sisters parents hadn't their creativity, or really wanted a boy to call Shawn. Instead, they had Shawnee and Shawnelle.
