@antlers another example I always use is my friend who is a fantastic writer but was never been able to gain any traction with her work. she tried commissioning traditional artists. but no one was really interested in doing the amount of animation she needed for the amount of money she had. but as soon as she started generating visuals to go along with her writing, she gets millions of people hearing her stories finally. she spends an insane amount of times generating prompt after prompt until the visuals exactly match what she's looking for. I don't consider that slop in the slightest. The junk that I made on the other hand I will agree with. but I don't agree that all generated art is ✌️

@xero@haunted.computer > I don't frequent any meme subs so I don't know what moderator or posts you speak of. I don't usually either, and in fact sunk some time into finding it and couldn't be more specific (super healthy behavior ik >u if I'm not physically painting it or drawing it, it's generated by the computer. how much of that influences me and how much of that influence is the machine is variable depending on a lot of factors. How much of that influence normalizes implicit endorsement of the AI industry, or how much is stolen from uncredited sources never given the opportunity to consent, depends on exactly one factor. I'm actually sympathetic, I get it's more work to sketch it on printer paper, to cut and paste it in Canva, GIMP, or MS-Paint -- I've got a bunch of funny ideas in the "someday" pile myself, just a little too much work to do right now but not *quite* funny enough to put aside the ethical implications of my actions or compromise the quality of my work for :c
