Welcome To The Shiny Army!!!

@the-great-lucario / the-great-lucario.tumblr.com

Hey there bruh! You can call me Sky or Lucario! I'm an artist trying to become an animator but until then I'll be here drawing things like my oc's, Pokemon, My Little Pony, anime, furries, and much more! (my tags are #shiny army and #the great lucario) I try to post daily art over here and I try to do live streams as well as speed paints, vlogs and other stuff when ever I can on my YouTube channel, and you can also find me on Twitter @ThaGreatLucario where I post more of my art and less memes. My commissions are open so if you're interested please send me a message

PSA: Tumblr/Wordpress is preparing to start selling our user data to Midjourney and OpenAI.

you have to MANUALLY opt out of it as well. (on desktop the feature to opt out is NOT available on the app)

to opt out, click your blog ➡️ blog settings ➡️ scroll til you see visibility options and it’ll be the last option to toggle.

you also have to opt out for each blog you own separately, so if you’d like to prevent AI scraping your blog i’d really recommend taking the time to opt out. (source)

“We’re selling your Tumblr posts and art to AI services for scraping, you’re opted in by default, and even if you opt out, the only thing ensuring they won’t take it is a conversation worth less than a pinky-promise”

guys I think the website is dead to me

They had a chance last year, they really did. If they had focused on moderation, trimmed excess features, improved site functionality when people came flooding in from Twitter. They could have made this the de-facto site for artists, writers, all of it.

And yet they haven’t just fumbled it, they haven’t just shot themselves in the foot, they’ve taken the whole damn leg, and it took them less than a week to do it.

This company deserves exactly what they’ve earned- every last ounce of scorn they’ve accrued.

And about the AI opt-out setting Tumblr will deploy tomorrow, I’ll just let you with the words of the person in charge of the heist:

Andrew Spittle, Automattic’s head of AI replied: “We will notify existing partners on a regular basis about anyone who’s opted out since the last time we provided a list. […] I believe partners will honor this based on our conversations with them to this point.”

So Tumblr will notify openAi and Midjourney that you wish your posts to not be used and it’s entirely up to them to comply or not. And as we know, we are talking about some of the less ethical companies on the internet (which honestly is kind of a feat), so that cute little setting will most than probably do nothing and less.

Wow I really did not expect me to take this long to draw these. Sorry.

None of these OC belong to me, they all belong to the requestees
