Not only that, most fully realized versions of the character channel both the vigilante AND playboy personas to fight crime, using Wayne Enterprises to create welfare programs and jobs so Gothamites need not resort to crime to put food on the table.

There’s a scene where Batman pacifies a room of Black Mask goons without lifting a FINGER - he hacks the projector screen simply shows them a Wayne Foundation advertisement for better, safer jobs. One by one, every man simply drops their weapons and walks out the door as their crime boss irately yells at them to come back.

My theory is that Gemma’s being exposed to “generalized” unpleasantries (dentist, airplane) and “specified” unpleasantries (thank-you cards, the crib). We see Helly working on Siena, and Siena is one of the rooms on Gemma’s testing floor, so we know Gemma’s been in a non-Mark refined room.

If there are other test subjects, maybe it’s useful to have a good collection of “general” worries that they can use on everybody.

Hoping to appease both sides by hand-drawing pro-ai wojaks. Is this how centrism works?

steal your house reselling it to unknown people Even if we assume AI training on images is plagiarism, is copying an image the same as stealing it if you don’t use it for commercial purposes? I can make shitty photoshops of the Mona Lisa eating pizza - am I stealing art from Da Vinci?

Are most people really “reselling it to unknown people” or are they just using the model for fun? Is there any example of a business or individual successfully using the Ghibli model to create sellable goods? Seems to me the majority of people are just making cute portraits of their families.

The sibling writing and acting between Devon and Mark never stops being charming. I love their initial banter in the car (“Tragically, you’re you”), and every time Devon reaches out to support him, it feels like genuine concern and affection. Her reassuring iMark in the cabin was so sweet.

“It means ‘eat shit’, Mr. Drummond.”

Milchick going off on Drummond was so satisfying. That entire exchange might have solidified him as my favorite character.

On an rewatch, I realized Irving tells Helena “Hey, kid” to see if she’ll answer “what’s for dinner”. We love our detective Irving B

Update: someone has. Billionaire in question was Brian Thompson, the UHC CEO

I like the accuracy of the eyes growing over time.

The theme I remember is that if established in a community and reinforced by tradition, any violence could be perpetuated and even endorsed.
