hate when i don't oualify to vote
frankly I get the sense that Kaepernick pivoted to schools after initially marketing Lumi as something like “ChatGPT for comic creators”
I’d love to hear from comic writers and illustrators familiar with the early days of Lumi. [email protected] or just DM me!

but don't take my word for it! here are examples of student comics created with Kaepernick's genAI tool, distributed to journalists as examples of Lumi's ostensibly positive impact on literacy.
You let me know if this meets your expectations of a rising 10th grader's work.

one of the more depressing turns. he's been pitching this thing for the last *two years*
