The comic book genius Ed Piskor (left) took his own life after being cancelled for flirting with the girl on the right. Why? Why would he do such a stupid thing? We are very, very close to major breakthroughs in human longevity, courtesy of AI. This man will miss out on potentially many centuries of comic-book making (maybe even far longer than that) just because he made a stupid mistake. Now we've lost one of the brightest lights in alternative comics, forever.
>how to make posting about piskor a bannable offense 101
good job, cuckold
This still feels surreal and even his suicide note felt kind of petty.
Yeah, he should have taken into account the good standing of the people who gleefully instigated his social death, leading to his real one.
The note got petty when he went from "I've lost my work and career" to specifically calling out people who made fun of him on the internet.
You homosexuals would have literally no problem and would be posting Tyler the Creator's tweet if it were some bad webcomic artist or something but are just pushing this because "ACKSHUALLY 17 IS NOT LE PEDOPHILE!"
Have we seriously looped back to "cyberbullying is serious business"
A TV crew came to his fricking parents’s house, Anon. They even apologised for doing so after he an heroed. It was a bit more than just “cyberbullying”. I care very little about what anyone thinks of me but even I’d be pretty distraught if the media went to question my parents about me being accused of being a sex pest.
That's fair anon. At the same time, I have to wonder whether or not everyone would be mad if it weren't this particular subject.
Doxing and trying to contact the parents in some way shape or form to fish for info is extremely common with this kinda stuff. Look at how many classic lolcows have archived calls to their parents up on youtube right now. We typically don't see it but it happens all the fricking time in almost all of these cases. Hell, people on Cinemaphile did it to Nyanners back then because they were mad at the presence of e-celebs at the vidya award. Pretty sure Dobson's family had been contacted a few times as well. At the very least it's heavily theorized the reason he left the internet is because they made him after his online presence sabotaged his brother's career.
Don't tell us what we would do actual gay, people are different, not your moronic political strawmen.
All you're doing is exhibiting sociopathic tendencies by disregarding his life being ruined, only what you will say to excuse yourself for ruining it if you participate: "I was just being a kid playing haha!"
It feels surreal because it's the epitome of tragic waste.
Was it ever confirmed how he did it? His letter mentioned a car, did he use the exhaust method?
>A guy killed himself for being ostracized for giving some lady 'the ick' let's all passive aggressively mock him

>comic book genius Ed Piskor
I'm sad Ed did not live to see the Drake-Kendrick feud. He would've loved this.
more photos of the cutie on the right plox
Did we ever find out how Ed killed himself?
who cares? he probably sucked his wiener to death. I want more pics of the cutie
I heard shotgun but dunno.
why isn't anyone talking about the one's he named dropped that he blamed for bulling him to the point of suicide.
What do you propose people do? Bully that person to death as well?
Nah just harass them and their families until they make a decision which I didn't force them to make.
>Still malding and defending pedos
Let it go.
His texts to a 17yo were indefensible. Like no...just...just no. But that being said. They should not have murdered him.
>We are very, very close to major breakthroughs in human longevity, courtesy of AI.
If someone kills themselves, they are responsible, no one else. Anyone who kills themselves is clearly too weak to live in this world and so they do not deserve it. Let the people who can live with the consequences of their actions continue to do so, and those who can't deserve to die.
This is obviously absurd. Mobs can 'break' people's minds easily and you've never been canceled if you think otherwise.
The 1980's called they want their thoughts on suicide back.
He spent his entire life wanting to make comics and then lost it all. He could have made a come back but he probably felt that he would have to start all over again.
Its tragic and should never have happened
Ed's story is kind of sad.
God this b***h is ugly.
Ed needs better taste from wherever he ended up.
What a fricking loser. Just turn off social media. Change your number and/or move if you really need to. And all bc he was trying to get his dick wet? Frick those people for messing with him, but frick him for being such a puss.
>I-it was just social media shit
He lost a publishing contract and an art show. You homosexuals who act like it was just online nonsense are complete and utter wastes of oxygen.
None of that matters. In a few years, AI will totally, totally, totally dominate entertainment. Humans will be transitioning to post-scarcity (or will be utterly exterminated anyway). There is literally no point in offing himself. We're all in literal Heaven or dead as doornails in a few years.
Wasn't Van Sciver one of the people going after Piskor
This man worked so hard to break into the industry it's unreal. Came from the literal ghetto. Spent years and years grinding at comics. He would wake up at 5, walk on the treadmill for an hour, draw all day until night, walk for another hour, sleep, and do it all over. He gave up everything. He doesn't even have a wife or kids. And he throws all that away because of some texts?
>Entire thread was just so some AI cultist could proselytize
Pay attention to the world you were born into. Pay attention.
Yes yes I'm sure super autocorrect will lead to the destruction of mankind suuuuuuuuuuuure
Yep. It's actually nuts. It shouldn't be true. It makes zero sense. But this "autocorrect" technology (large language models) really, actually are following the scaling laws to a T. Every year, they've been getting as good as the scaling laws have been predicting they would get. And those laws predict they will get...waaaaaaaaay beyond human level within a few years.
Lol lmao this shit broke your mind, the Ai bubble is about to burst and make you gays look moronic
Sweet summer child. The most successful forecasters in the world disagree.
What is "human-machine intelligence parity" even? Computers can multiply faster than humans since three beginning. We keep finding new applications for them, like generating plausibly looking text recently. But to this date there's still no actual intelligence there. Zero. LLMs can't even learn to play wordle or basic cellular automata, even though a 6 year old could learn the rules So I doubt we'll suddenly get there in 15 years, but sure, keep drinking the hype.
I looked up 'LLM Wordle' and found a solver on Page 1. My sweet, doomed tard. How I genuinely wish your life well.
oh NO
>17
The b***h looks like she's in her 30s
Good riddance to the frickin pussy
She's a better artist than he ever was and she's an actual outlaw comics creator unlike him.
