As Arthur C Clarke once said, sufficiently advanced manual labor is indistinguishable from AI. Or, something. Anyway the bosses asked me to use some generative AI, whip up a few dozen VFX shots. I gave it a try.
In the first round, it told me that I can’t use image editing features on anything that involves a human with a face. Okay, so let’s cover up the human and try again. Maybe we’ll get something we can matte into the original shot.
I mean, the mic stand is gone.
Pretty sure my job is secure for a little while longer.
Idiomatic is back this Friday night at the Pack theater with an all-new lineup! Well, except for the panelists that may have been on previous episodes. And your returning champion, Rick Wood. Oh, and me. I'm almost always there...
Idiomatic is back this month with a partially new lineup! This month we're talking outdated slang, pig latin, and fine arts. Come check it out!

New month, new NOW page update, and a bunch of new shower jams coming down the pike.
Three videos in a row, we have a brand new shower sweetie! This week, it's Victor Bryan Olivas.
I'm a little proud of this one. Everyone sounds good and everyone looks good. Nothing to fear, just in case the algorithm chooses this week to carry us off on its shoulders to internet glory.
Another new face in the shower! Is it Jonathan Regier? No! It's Jones the Dog in a special cameo. Keep those eyes peeled!
But also, Jonathan is here. And Becky is here. And Libby too, if you can believe it.
