This is a comic about AI art.

Note

Gosh, The Oatmeal was one of my favorite cartoonists back then™️. Then I stopped using an RSS Reader, and the bookmark was lost in a pile of bookmark folders.

And now, reading this comic of his reminded me why I love his style: because he sometimes has genuine takes on things, like in this take on AI!

I tried AI Art back then, when it was new, but after a few weeks of enthusiasm, I realized it was just the technology I found interesting, not the result.
AI Images are called slop because they are missing the soul and the intention of human minds.

There recently was a video by a German YouTuber called "Ultralativ" on this topic that described it best for me. He coined the phrase "It's good enough for you" ("Für euch reicht's"). And yes, that's it; it's called slop for a reason. People creating Ai Images and Videos do not value you, they are imposters out for a quick buck, knowing that we, the consumer, will swallow and consume it.

Maybe I will elaborate on this in a separate article.

Visual artists, illustrators and graphic designers share their stories about how AI is being used to lower wages, degrade work and even replace it altogether, in this installment of AI Killed My Job.

Note

The creative industry is facing a systemic collapse as generative AI replaces human illustrators and writers with cheaper, automated substitutes.

The article outlines how professional artists are losing long-term clients and seeing their wages plummet while tech companies profit from their scraped work.

It is a sobering look at why the current AI gold rush might be destroying the very culture it seeks to mimic and why protecting human labor matters now.

Note

AI tools like Copilot are dismantling reliance on frameworks such as React, Tailwind, and Next.js, ushering in "de-frameworking." They generate efficient native JavaScript, CSS, and Web Components faster than framework experts, escaping upgrade hell and dependency issues. Developers regain code ownership, building maintainable projects that age gracefully. Frameworks offered short-term boosts but created treadmills; AI returns simplicity, letting humans focus on logic over scaffolding maintenance.

The Death of the User Interface. GitHub Gist: instantly share code, notes, and snippets.

Note

We are witnessing a "fundamental shift* from graphical interfaces to pure intent. For fifty years, humans had to learn the language of computers—clicks, menus, and folders.

Now, AI agents are finally learning to speak human. By eliminating the "cognitive tax" of traditional navigation, the tool disappears into the task, turning the "bicycle for the mind" into a teleporter.

This isn't just an evolution; it’s the end of UI as we know it, making interaction truly natural.

TL;DR: Utkarsh Kanwat bets against AI agents dominating software development soon due to reliability gaps in complex tasks.

Agents excel in narrow scopes but falter on edge cases, security, and integration. Human oversight remains crucial for production.

He advocates for hybrid approaches where agents assist with routine work, freeing developers for architecture and debugging.
