Weeknotes #21 (March 29, 2025)

Posted on: Mar 29, 2025

Things I found, read, did, and produced this past week.

Things I worked on

I was temporarily blocked on my Marvel comics Discord bot as the Marvel API was down for a good 10 days, but it is finally back up as of today.

OpenAI released a new image model as part of ChatGPT, and oh boy it made some images: ChatGPT is turning everything into Studio Ghibli art — and it got weird fast - The Verge
Nintendo had a Nintendo Direct on March 27 which was interesting given they also have yet another one in a few days on April 2. This one was for remaining Switch 1 content (which is seeming to be continuing support into the future as some of the games announced are coming in 2026), but next week's is solely going to be for Switch 2 games.
Thousands of people watched director chairs as Marvel announced the cast for Avengers Doomsday. This is a sped up version of what was a 5 and a half hour livestream going one by one.
