    I used to when they first came out. There are some genuinely good talks in the archives. However there is definitely a trend and style to them.

  Sigh. So, he used Photoshop? How long are we gonna keep doing this breathless “OMG an AI was used in this graphic design application!!!” shit? It’s exhausting. People are going to use AI in graphic applications because it’s really hard to avoid and it’s semi-useful at times. People will also be bad at it for a while, then they’ll get better. fucks sake.

    There were some AI pictures in the talks I saw last week. But they where put in to illustrates a point - I doubt otherwise the engineer would hire an artist for some bespoke art for their talk. It’s probably better than just copy and pasting off the internet without much attribution.
