Honestly, I'm not sure which shocks me more: the sponsorship itself, or the fact that you're announcing it happily and proudly without considering how problematic it might be for your community.
Unfortunately, I'll take this as a sign of a pro-AI cultural shift at the Blender Foundation. What a disappointment.

All right, Francesco here - CEO at Blender. I'm going to spend some time to try and respond. If you have direct questions or comments, reply here!

Thanks everyone for your feedback, I see the pain and concern that this announcement has caused. Several conversations are ongoing, and there will be an official follow up soon.
