The concept artist they didn't pay, the human being they replaced with the plagiarism machine is looking for work RIGHT NOW.

Do you care about people or do you care about AI not being good enough to replace them yet?

Because it will be. Eventually.

You have to stick to your fucking principles, otherwise you're just fucking posturing

Did you care about AI or did looking like you care about AI make you feel like you were caring about something that matters?

An associated problem I've had before generative tech appeared as an option:

I've dealt with leaders who, like newbie gamedevs, obsessed with visual polish early and refused to test design stuff until it looked somewhat clean as a whole. This made development of core features EXTREMELY SLOW.

Clair Obscur Expedition 33 is proof to me that AI will punch a hole clean through the entire art spectrum because as soon as it was used in something that made you feel something, 90% of so called critics went out of their way to go "well I think it's acceptable in this case"

Sorry I think using AI for placeholders is also bad
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I know you only care about finished art but placeholder art also needs to be made by a human being who also needs to be paid for that

But placeholder midjourney slop cuts that artist out

As a wizard, Octavia has nothing but disgust towards sorcerers. She'll never say it out loud, but it's mostly because of their incredible signature fashion sense.

I haven't been putting my more personal self out there recently, and it's namely because so many other social media outlets have buried what I have to say with their algorithms. I've been conditioned not to bother sharing. Do any of you feel the same?

My chronic depression REALLY got the better of me these last couple of days... Mental illness is really, really diabolical. You can be doing your best, and suddenly without warning, it can just cripple you. But I'm on the mend!! I showered, did my dishes, and folded my laundry AND put it away!

I'm really hoping Frenden makes those brushes in Krita he talked about once. I love Clip Studio, but like any corporation, they can still decide to do something unforgivable and I'd have to abandon the program.

I finished another commission!! It's Ser Barristan Gilder, a knight of Gelderlandt! He's actually a party member of the Fabula Ultima group I'm in! He's probably the most heroic one of the team, so I absolutely had to capture that in this piece~

Testing the limits of Bluesky to see if I can just throw an entire comic page on here 👀
From a ttrpg I used to play with my friends. My character always seemed to be triggering the traps…

It's that giving time of year again, so this is a reminder that no matter how they try to dress it up, the Salvation Army is not a charity.

I had a lot of down time at work due to a snow storm, so I grabbed a ballpoint pen and doodled this. No ref, either! Just pure mindless fun.

I'm setting up a VGen, but I keep wondering if I'm going to overwhelm myself too much if I run my commissions through VGen, Ko-fi, AND personally. Anyone have experience taking commissions through multiple avenues?

If you use or were considering using SAMMI, switch to a different program.

The new sole developer is extremely pro-AI, has already started using it in the code, and is in support of its use for genAI images as well. Everyone who protested this was told to leave the server and stop using SAMMI.
