Now, sporting an orange hoodie and leggings, she's ready to spring into action and stomp on all those pesky bugs!

Bummer. Blender is still my favorite software, but I'm worried about how this will affect artists. Blender is 100% controllable in every way via its very good Python API. It's not surprising that there's interest to control it from AI agents.

I won't take myself out of the loop of producing my own artwork, and I don't think any software will replace Blender as my favorite graphics software, but I am bummed out by this.

I hope Blender doesn't start incorporating genAI contributions into its codebase also.
