It seems there is an issue with Firefox and Disqus currently, with the comments no longer loading while using Firefox. Unfortunately this is out of our hands since it's a plugin, so hopefully Disqus fixes it soon. For now I'd recommend something like Brave on Android in the meantime, or Chrome on desktop if you want to leave a comment.
Now back to poni.
It's time once again to review some plushies! Symbiote has been flooding us all with amazing characters that no other plushie line has really done justice, and it's about time all these years later.
This follows Luna if you missed that review a while back. We also interviewed their CEO, which you can read all about over here.

I wonder where G5 would have eventually gone if it had another 5 years?

We have two more pages of this one following the last set. This time for upcoming Case of the Missing Puff. And check out the reveal of this one over here for all the details.
Go get it below. Expect it on the 19th of March.
I figured this day would come. Honestly I thought it would be faster after Dalle 3 back in 2023. The world of image generation has been largely driven by enthusiasts on the internet rather than companies due to their rampant filter and copyright restrictions. Open Source was going to win eventually though, and here we are now.
We get a lot of AI art submissions in the submit box, and 90% of them are completely unlabeled. As of the last month or so, the solution has quickly shifted from catching typical AI errors, to me running around learning what LoRAs and models people are releasing while being wary of new artist styles and keeping an eye on existing artist galleries to cross reference submissions that look like theirs.
I'll be doing a longer editorial once OpenAI drops their new image generation later soon™, but I figured I'd get a general update out now. So have a mini writeup update thing! Continue below.
