    1. Remember when Republicans run on helping blue collar workers but don’t even attempt to pass any legislation to help them?

    2. DidItForTheJokes on

      It’s amazing you can link current events, AI and new government policy, straight to those job losses

    3. This was posted to r/vfx. Can’t comment on the other titles, but on vfx it was pointed out that it’s a bit difficult to track employment because the title itself varies. VFX Artist could be listed as rigger, matchmover, painter, compositor, etc… It could be the case that generalist listings reduced but there was an increase in specialist titles.

    4. The visual arts are done forever as a profession. As an awkward young artist who could barely lift his GPA above flunking, I made a good career through creativity. Now I realize I’m one of the lucky last generations to have that option.

      What’s even more depressing is, as a recreational artist, I now compete with AI “art” on sites like deviatnart. We can’t even just share art for free without being harassed by AI.

      We might be the canary in the coal mine, but it’s coming for *all* of us.
