Every week I get at least six pitches from new platforms that want to “showcase AI artists.” And every week I laugh. Because the pitch is always the same: “Bring your audience to our platform and get X% of the revenue!” “Join as a founder!" "Revenue share!” Translation: You already built the audience. You already make the content. You already make money. Now please hand us a cut of all three. That’s not a partnership. It takes real nerve to ask a creator for a percentage of their own ecosystem while bringing absolutely nothing new to the table. Here’s the bar, and it’s not high: Bring my work to audiences I can’t reach on my own. Or pay for the content outright. If you can’t do either, there is zero reason for any creator to split their audience and income with you. This industry doesn’t move forward with platforms skimming off the years it takes to build stories, worlds, and communities. It moves forward when someone creates NEW opportunity that benefits both sides. We are not your sales team. We are not your affiliate marketers. We are not your ad budget. Respect the relationship. Bring real value. Or admit you’re just a leech with a landing page.

Reggie's been gone a long time. Tonight his wife called a late night radio show to request a song for "someone who's working late." Philly knew who was on line two. He didn't say who. Last stop before the Season 4 finale. The Night Signal: "Line Two" 📻 66.6 ΩM | 11:47 PM

I’m sorry but c’mon. Nobody’s gonna say it? Fine. I will. He’s talking about this like he just learned the terms and concepts. I feel like I’m crazy for seeing through this… and I can’t be the only one. He’s “worked extensively with gpu’s”. What the fuck does that even mean? Lmao. I’m all for Ben being into AI, but everything I have seen from him so far is something anyone in ai or tech learns in the first 6 months. What I see is a celebrity who saw opportunity and is using his influence to ride the wave from the netflix deal to whatever special access he has. Good for him but when I think American leaders in AI, his name isn’t even on the shortlist.

The points are made up and nothing really matters! This is why social engagement is now irrelevant metrics and doesn't translate to real world opportunity. You can buy online attention but the one thing you can't buy is trust.

I have the pleasure of judging two separate competitions currently and all I can say is… Holy hell a lot of people are upping their game! It’s an incredible time to be an original creator. If you have an idea, build it. It’s so worthwhile

Haven't been showing off much work lately bc I've been doing a lot of paid projects. Finished my first hour of a two hour project on Friday, and the feedback so far: "I AM OBSESSED!!! This is incredible!" "Your _____ piece is badass" Sometimes you gotta just put your head down and grind and ignore the noise on socials.
