What is this about the tumblr staff wanting to sell art data to midjourney?

An ex-colleague of mine mentioned yesterday that there may be contacts between Automattic and midjourney in that direction, but nothing is public yet and I don't have any more info. They probably won't have anything specific to share either, since they left the company weeks ago too. That being said:

I have no reason to doubt my ex-coworker word, they are a trustworthy person.

Tumblr's CEO has been absurdly enthusiastic (comically, even) about AI, and is a big fan of LLMs and 'AI' companies.

A deal with midjourney could solve tumblr financial issues (not the same company, but openAi is paying up to 5 million/year to news companies to use their content as training data... tumblr generates several orders of magnitude more content than any newspaper or any media company and it only would need a 20 to 30 million per year deal to be profitable)

So I don't have any extra info yet, but I'm keeping my ears open.

i love when characters get angry when they're frightened. shelter dog characters. i love when they bite, not able to tell the difference between a hand that feeds and a hand that strikes. there is no difference. a hand is a hand is a fist. i love characters that are deemed unadoptable. unlovable.

and i love when someone loves them. i love when someone sits with them, patient. they don't flinch at the snarling and snapping. they're not trying to fix it—there's nothing to be fixed. this is you, all of you, and ill wait. because one day, one day you'll take the treat. go on, draw my blood. spit and curse and rage. you're safe with me. one day, you'll feel safe with me.

asher would send a very simple yet concerning "I love you" message to david with no explanation and end up making the poor man panicking while he's asleep like a little baby.

Hi! I don’t know who they are nor what I’m doing but here’s the game. I’m designing redacted boys with little to no information about them other than stuff I’ve seen from mutuals and giving my feelings about them. Suggest some of the guys in the tags and tell me their name, what they are (ie vampire, werewolf, etc)

Judge me as you will redacted fandom /lh

About Asher: MIDDLE CHILD CODED (that means absolutely everything to me and I looked at him and that is how I feel as a middle child) From what I know he’s a werewolf that seems from the rest of the pack to keep out of drama with his ears to the ground. 10/10

His listener is babe I think

About Milo: Is he the grumpy one or is it Dave man? Idk either way he seems like he’s an older brother and that him and Asher grew up pretty close definitely seems like he’d be getting some losers (/pos) out of or into shenanigans. I know he’s supposedly the short king but I’m 5’2” and not convinced. 9/10 (those au shenanigans going on where he was a tall suave vampire man what was that gang?? /lh) 😭💀

His listener is sweetheart I think
