My grandfather taught me: judge a man not by his mistakes, but instead by how he chooses to fix them.

When pup T:Mo ran some night owl drag posters through an ai check (which he shared with me) I immediately fired the "artist" who made the night owl drag posters and started producing the posters for the last few shows.

I also took an online graphic design class to start making my own event posters

So the dates of the first two were back in '23 and the third was gifted to me a couple months later. The first major copyright suit didn't go public till mid to late '23. Once I found out, I changed my pfp

I hate AI and think it looks sloppy, but I think the last message was a bit dramatic. Arf arf arf or whatevs

It’s been well known for a long while that AI uses other people’s work to “create” something new. To say you didn’t know doesn’t justify what’s been done.

the first two i did slop out before it was revealed that AI was all stolen assets, and the third i didnt produce. i later found out that was ai as well. i have since terminated all uses of ai.

Yep and right after I got art of the old version from spacepupsilver too

BAY-PAH

Nope. No AI here ever. Full human brain just cybernetic netrunner upgrades and augmentations

BAY-PAH

Bup doggos. This alpha got a cybernetic upgrade

If you haven't, they have an announce channel.

Announcements of events/PSA/official puppy business for the local San Francisco Puppy & Handlers (and kitties, and everyone that loves us)

Very cool. The K9 unit puts on a quarterly mosh. They hold it at the Folsom Community Center on Sundays.
Much, much smaller.

Very good. Someone else was exploring that one too.

We've been to this twice! Saturdays are the most schedule complex for us but we have gone when we can!

I can try to dig it up

BAY-PAH

03 February 2026 20:25

Did I fuck up and use the new shiney toy? Yes, but once I was educated on the icky, I didn't want anything to do with it, and I've been a very loud anti ai proponent since

To be clear: I'm saying that your most recent decision was the correct one.

To a gym selfie I took for the purpose of changing off of the AI slop. And as you can see I've commissioned several other artists since then for art, and I pay and tip them well

I'm with August on this one. Changing one's policies in response to new information is something that should be encouraged.

It looks like they haven’t been used in a while. I think we have too many big issues to make a stink over something someone has learned from. People are literally getting kidnapped off the streets so a puppies old (keyword old) pfp isn’t the end of the world

BAY-PAH

03 February 2026 07:59

I know a few pups in that area.
If memory serves, there's a leather bar in Arden area.
