  • I suppose the systemic solution would be a mandate to follow an Adobe-style model.

    Certainly seems impossible to harm anyone by making a comic for fun with an available tool.

    For contrast -

    Entrepreneurs who start small businesses today and especially the years to come 2026 will have to decide though where their morals lie - will an artist, or Altman, profit from the logo creation?

    Who commissions a political comic

    lol

    Great comment


    I wish the courts decided everybody should use that Adobe model where anyone in the training set gets compensated. The debate immediately becomes far less interesting when nobody is obviously getting directly screwed.

    Once that moral high ground is achieved, the arguments about increased accessibility of expression become more sympathetic. Then I can’t just care about the artist who needs to make rent, I have to care about the amateur filmmaker who can’t afford to traditionally storyboard their dream just like it is in their brain…










  • One of the most useful concepts ever:

    the Curse of Knowledge.

    Explaining something to someone? Zoom out. Back up. What if that person were an alien, how much more context would you need to explain?

    The curse of knowledge is a cognitive bias that occurs when an individual, who is communicating with others, assumes that others have information that is only available to themselves, assuming they all share a background and understanding. This bias is also called by some authors the curse of expertise.
