Allan,
I was disappointed to see the "ChatGPT illustration" on your op-ed this month. What I love about the Examiner is that it is hyper-local. You stay laser-focused on NW Portland. I would love to see you hire a local NW Portland artist to draw a cartoon to accompany your op-ed. (I do note that I have seen human-drawn cartoons in your paper in the past.)
AI has been trained to draw using human-made illustrations *without gaining permission from or compensating the artists.* I urge you to compensate the artists by hiring them to make drawings for your paper.
Best,
Kara
Great little local shopper…and Allan has now become one of our “pirate media” peiople, but will he really stand up to the maniacs in city government? Allan likes to nibble at the margins. Time to toughen up.
