The irony of Higgsfield sending Comfy a C&D when Higgsfield are one of the biggest IP infringers is laughable. Keep it up @yoland_yan
Last night, @higgsfield sent @ComfyUI a cease and desist (attached)
They want the Open Source Higgsfield challenge taken down within 48 hours.
Their argument is that our use of the Higgsfield name and that using their CEO's likeness is an infringement violation (man, the irony). Claiming that it makes the event look like Higgsfield is associated with it.
This couldn't be farther from the truth, which is that Higgsfield made a promise to open source its product and never did.
For the past two weeks, builders have been recreating popular closed apps as open workflows anyone can run.
So we asked our community to deliver where Higgsfield failed: apps in the open, built by the community, for the community. We've made it clear that the challenge is organized by ComfyUI and not affiliated with or endorsed by Higgsfield.
When we started Comfy, we made the community a promise. Our product stays open, free, and yours. We’ve kept it every day since, and one letter isn’t going to change that.
The challenge stays up. Comfy and open source will win!

This year's View Conference was inspiring. The endless AI pitches were less so, crossing into total bullshit.
AI Evangelists (one speaker's actual title) insisted everyone uses genAI, even as established directors explicitly said otherwise. My thoughts:

Yessss.

The Television Academy is saddened by the loss of prolific voice actor Eric Bauza. Last month, he demonstrated his incredible talents while presenting at night two of the 78th Emmys.
Throughout his career, Bauza was honored for his voiceover work with three Children's & Family Emmy Awards and will be remembered as the modern voice of iconic Looney Tunes characters Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and many other beloved characters.🐰 🎙️

Cache is a talented artist along with Ari who got their work straight ripped off and pumped through v2v models for the music video.
A$AP Rocky accused of using visuals from a 2019 video in his “Shroom Clouds” music video 👀🚨
- The original creator has shared a comparison highlighting the similarities between the two videos
- The accusations add to the backlash over Rocky’s use of AI, with multiple AI artists credited in the production
- Rocky and his team have yet to publicly respond to the allegations

Eric Bauza was a unique voice talent who brought joy and laughter to millions around the world. During his 15 years at Warner Bros. Animation, he was the voice of Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck among countless other characters. He followed in the footsteps of giants like Mel Blanc. Eric said that carrying on the legendary legacy of the Looney Tunes was among the greatest honors of his life. In addition to his incredible talent, Eric was a treasured part of our animation family. Our hearts go out to his loved ones.

This is extremely sad news to hear of the sudden passing of @bauzilla got to know him while working on @CoyoteACMEMovie his family has shared news from his Instagram.
Between Gargoyles and the animated Batman series both were amazing series. Art & animation teams to the actor casting.
So by this thinking Tim why are you afraid of disclosure ? You use rating labels as does the whole industry across games, film & TV to help inform. That information lets the consumer decide. Will that mean an Epic dev or partner who decides to not use GENAI will be treated less ?
Part of my fun gubernatorial @TelevisionAcad role is getting to share new technologies and storytelling solutions with educators teaching the next generation of filmmakers. Great day with over 65 colleges at the Academy media educators summit.
Should read - hype wagon CEO who has zero production experience & hasn’t worked with actors makes outlandish claims for vested interest to hype his platform.
