I think even moreso they see themselves as the only sane people in a world filling with crazies.
“Oh you need purple hair and pronouns and to change your gender? No you don’t. I’m over here drinking my black coffee, working my 9-5 and dressing normally and everything’s fine. Don’t be dramatic.”

They fundamentally do not respect our nature because they don’t believe anything so outlandish could be legitimate and cannot empathise.
“Don’t be a cringe weirdo, please be normal”
“I’m sorry, this is who I am. I don’t have a choice”
“You do have a choice! I hate you for refusing to be normal!”

They’re also seen as misled. Like goths and jocks, they’re indoctrinated by their friends to fit in.
Bigots despise the idea that they should ever be made to play into these “misled fantasies.”
Pronouns and genderless toilets hurt no one but to them they’re a sign of legitimising the ridiculous.

Judging by their roadmap they don't have a brush engine yet, so it would be a no-go for me and definitely not a PS replacement. Looks neat though, if a bit slim on features.

Not having to use it isn’t the point, we appreciated that Serif (now Canva) avoided AI by and large for Affinity. Pursuing it as part of their business model gives the impression they’re okay with the abuse of artist’s work that genAI is responsible for and are just as bad as Adobe.

I don’t like the risks and complications inherent to piracy these days. Folks can say skill issue or whatever, good for them if it works for them.
You’re still tying yourself to how Photoshop works though. It’s really difficult to break away from when you’re years deep into habit with it.

I read the information. Disappointment comes from them pursuing implementation of a technology that is considered to be unethical to creators, regardless of paywall. It says a lot about the company’s lack of awareness of the creative landscape currently.
Be less patronising next time please Alex.

Their GenAI model is probably based on an existing service (as most are). They have an option to turn off AI training based on user actions (NOT art) in their settings so they’re most likely training an assistant on that.
It’s a little beside the point though, Adobe’s doing just as bad or worse.

Yeah I used to get reachouts from folks seeing my folio on AS pretty often and it's been dead quiet since I've hosted it other places.
We gotta fight AI but taking yourself out of the game for reactive performative bullshit ain't it.

I left Artstation for their AI policies and have since had a 100% reduction in work offers. I left Gumroad and have had a 100% decrease in passive income.
It's not worth kneecapping yourself because a service adopted AI. The digital art world sucks right now but we still gotta live in it.
