          @chriskirknielsen I like this! Though it doesn't work that well in small size: it is very hard to tell it is "AI" that has been crossed over.

            @MerriNet Thanks! Yeah I know it gets tough to read β€” its base 16x16 is probably the absolute limit before it becomes a muddy patch of pixels, and that's with good eyesight and decent contrast. I did try a few variations but this was by far the best one to retain familiar shapes for `A` and `I`.

            I guess it means it just has to be used very in-your-face at 512x512. 😏

              @chriskirknielsen I wonder if the "star sparkles" would work better. That at least has some chance unlike the generic "rear hole" AI logos, as you'd cover the hole πŸ˜…

                @MerriNet While I dislike how sparkles have been appropriated by AI companies, you're not wrong… but I don't think they'd be a lot more readable at small sizes. This is a quick mockup, there may be better sparkle to use, but it's definitely more ambiguous in my mind.

                The international emoji consortium should just create an emoji like πŸ”ž perhaps!

                  @chriskirknielsen @MerriNet I’ve adapted the CC styling for mine and just now switched from letters to the robot emoji, but it’s also a bit cluttered and not super readable, but perhaps less ambiguous?

                    @eobet @MerriNet I'm a sucker for consistency, granted, but I like it! Not sure there's a perfect solution to this, besides writing in plain text "No AI for me thanks" in a big ol' font!

                      @chriskirknielsen Thank you!! I just added it to my resume website footer πŸ‘ŒπŸ»

                      I'm not sure about my text after it -- my current copy says "Handmade to respect your time" πŸ€”

                      Thanks for making the icon and sharing it!
