Not me just now learning about this hello???? wtf?
I just learned about this too. I doubt it's as common knowledge as this person thinks it is, even among the bigger creators in the space. I'm glad the knowledge is picking up steam now though, hopefully this'll be common to talk about soon.
When you think it couldn't get worse, it does. New evidence on Rai using AI, this time on AN OFFICIAL PROMOTIONAL IMAGE THEY POSTED IN THEIR SOCIAL MEDIA.

Hello back again with another update since I have encountered people either denying the legitimacy of the leaks or stating that "those are just explorations, not necessarily the final designs."
Anyway both are wrong. Lemme explain:
Regarding the legitimacy, I have a friend in the animation industry who confirmed not only that the leaks were legit, but also that it happened to other studios and projects.
Basically a lot of animation studios use an online storage service that went through a leak issue and a lot of projects and studio work got in the hands of people who sold them on telegram groups for a price.
The Winx Leaks, for what someone else told me, not only got that basic treatment of being auctioned like the rest, but also people with ill intent decided to pick "the worst" concepts of the show and spread them in an attempt to create bad advertisement of the show ( the same person told me the leakers were MLB fans because apparently there's beef between the Winx and MLB fandom since Thomas Asstruck twitted some shitty comments about Winx) .
Anyway, my friend in the industry confirmed that they saw the Winx leaks alongside other companies' works and that they were legitimate. Being directly affected, people in the industry were the first ones to find out about the leaks.
What about the designs shown being explorations?
Well, the Rainbow teaser lowkey debunked that by showcasing some models that resemble a lot the leaked concepts.
Exhibit A:
AI usage has been especially obvious with secondary and background characters. They are v small and the camera movement and blur effect makes it kinda hard to see, but there are 2 of the background witches leaked. The color schemes and silhouettes seems to be the same.
Exhibit B:
Again it's hard to see because of the fast movement, but you can see the specialists' outfits seem to match the ones in the AI generated concepts. Riven even has the ugly sideways hairstyle.
Exhibit C:
With Faragonda's design, the giveaway for me in the concept were her shoes, but they didn't show in the trailer. She has like 2 scenes of half a second. I managed to take this ss where you can see her hairstyle and clothes are the same as in the concept. I have no issue with the clothing since I'm sure that's someone's overpaint, tho. The rest I'm not so sure...
Reblogging this again because I just saw @cartoon-worlds posted this picture of the leaked witch and here it's more clear!
UPDATE: Not only the visual department was affected, but the audio department too.
I got sent 2 storyboards and I got 2 different people who work with audio confirm to me that Aisha's voice in one clip is AI generated and in a different clip of Musa singing, the song is also AI generated.
I understand they are placeholders, but the VA of Stella has said before that they did record placeholder audio, I don't understand why they would replace an actress with AI?
I have also been told Elisa Rosselli works as composer and singer, Idk why they used an AI Generated song instead of paying her...
Oh wait. That's the point. Saving as much money as possible by not paying people to do their job.
I have both clips saved, but I don't want to be the one to post them because it's not my area of expertise and I would rather that someone who knows about audio posted them and explained why they believe to be AI.
Again, the issue is not that "everything on the show is AI slop", but the foundation of it is, and audio placeholders and concept art are labor that must be paid. That's the point. Pay people to do the job instead of using AI!

Would there be anywhere you’d be willing to post your winx art again? It’s gorgeous and I love seeing your creative designs for ocs. I understand your hesitancy due to all this AI business, but I’d really like to be able to engage with your art again ❤️
Nah m8
The reason I'm against Generative AI is mainly because it steals the work from hard-working individuals. So the last thing I want is posting the little progress I did of my Winx project (which I can use for whatever other thing) and someone else looking at it and thinking they can use it just because I've paused it or gave up on it.
I got like 5 other asks from anons and other people telling me to post it so they can "get inspired" by my stuff, or continue it for me... but I've grown extremely protective of it. There's a v fine line between inspiration and plagiarism. And I know this is lowkey selfish and paranoid but I honestly don't want anyone to get "inspired" by my winx designs anymore.
#ask#art#anti ai#winx#winx club#you can still engage with my art tho#like I may not post winx anymore but i'm still drawing#and designing#a lot of monster hgh recently#also I'm working on a “winx-inspired” original story that I want to publish so yeah....#winx inspired as in... it's a sci-fi fantasy lmao
Maiky! Yo te he seguido desde que eras angel-balance jajaja de todos tus personajes, cuales dirías que son los más "principales" ? O que dibujas más?
El que tengo desde pequeñita es Balery (que en aquellos tiempos era Angel Balance JAJA) antes era una diosa de varias caras que mantenia el equilibrio del universo y no se que más cosas. Actualmente es una loquita del bosque.
A ella la dibujo muy a menudo, pero no es mi personaje principal. Diría que actualmente y tal y como está organizada mi historia los protagonistas son Angeline y Kaven.
Anonymous asked:
Why don't you like MHA (My Hero Academia)? I just wanted to know your opinion.
As much as I like the character design of some characters and Horikoshi's style is cool, I just don't like the story.
I stopped watching the anime after the plot with the blood dude because I got bored.
And then I have a lot of fb friends who watch the anime/read the manga, so I would eat all the spoilers and it kinda killed my investment and experience.
Then I had bad experiences with someone who was obsessed with the show and it made me dislike it even more. I gave it a chance for this person but it didn't click with me and then I inevitably associated the anime with this person who deeply hurt me so it's an amalgamation of all those things.
Also I didn't like the ending (I saw it through spoilers and clips of course) Certain character should had stayed dead in my humble opinion, but I'm a One Piece enjoyer, so I can't critique other mangakas for bringing back to life characters that should be 100% dead. Lmao
Adding onto another asker, I've also been there since the SVTFOE days, and I really love your art and seeing it evolve overtime! If you don't mind me asking, what caused the split in the fandom? I know for me personally it was cause I got bored of it, but I heard the series' ending turned a lot of people off from it as well.
The ending was so awful we pretended it never happened. And after that atrocious ending and having no new content or anything, the fandom kinda died. Some artists tried to keep it alive for a few more months or the next year but most of them migrated to other active fandoms like The Owl House, Amphibia, etc
I was a multishipper back then, I knew Starco was the final ship, and yet I hated it so hard. How they developed (or regressed) the characters, their relationships and everything... I know Disney cut the show and cancelled an extra season, but the management was awful and not even die-hard Starco fans liked the ending.
People talking about your old svtfoe art reminds me of how obsessed I was with this drawing you made of melted Queen Star after baby Tensy's debut, I've tried finding a reblog of it for so long with no luck 😭 one of my favorite old pieces of your's for sure
Drawing body horror back then really was a delight, I might draw it again and see how it turns out! (I can't find that drawing either but I know which one you are talking about!!)

Hiii!! Maybe i'm super duper late to the party, but what happened with your deviantart? :( i remember following you there back in 2019 and then coming here for you
so glad you are back!
When deviantart announced they made their own AI and that it would be trained in all the images submited, I deleted it.
They also made this annoying "opt out" button that you had to toggle in every single image you had made. So I just deleted it. Because I had +1k images and going one by one checking the opt-out toggle wasn't it.

Again a few artists who are obviously afraid of Al art. As I said. I personally don't understand it. Art should be for everyone and make people happy. I like to share my art and am happy when it is spread further. In my opinion, the poster is also not about the quality of the art, but rather that fewer people buy his/her artwork. Ai art has a weakness. It can only copy and paste, but cannot create anything new. Ai art always looks pretty much the same. Therefore, an artist's individual style will prevail. Anyone who naturally builds their career on copying existing characters, ideally the drawing style, will certainly not be able to compete with AI.
The issue with this argument is that artists are actively loosing jobs to Gen-AI. Instead of hiring 10 artists to do the concept art, they used AI and had 1 or 2 touch-up artists instead.
Yes, personal style and human touch is ALWAYS better for any creative field, but that's not what companies see. They see art as a mere commodity they can profit off-of. Which is honestly disrespectful.
Besides that, Winx has at least 2 entire seasons ( Season 5 and season 7) all about environmental consciousness and S5 specifically is about HOW IMPORTANT WATER IS. Yet Gen-AI is one of the most (if not currently the most) water-wasting technology and that produces more C02. It's hypocritical and lowkey virtue signaling from their part.
Art is for everyone and everyone can pick up a pencil. And learn. Artists have democratized art since forever with free tutorials and what not that you can find online. People who use GenAI don't care about art. They don't care about learning. They just want profit and validation from d*ck-sucking tech bros who think and do the same as they do, either ignoring or making fun of the struggle real artists and creatives are going through because of the tech they preach.
~*~ I love drawing. And I also love sharing my pictures with others so that they can enjoy them just as much. I share my inner life, my fantasy world with others. When I was used the Internet for the first time and saw all the fanart, I was really excited. I was as happy as a child at Christmas and collected the pictures in a folder. I want to give this feeling to others. That's my view of art. Especially because I think that as an artist you should sell to private parties rather than to companies. Clearly view these images as products. The reason why the AI uses so much water and has a high CO2 footprint is, because it is a mainframe computer. If you argue this way, large institutions such as banks, insurance companies, government authorities, tax offices, hospitals, health authorities, universities, etc. should no longer use mainframe computers. Apart from that... and this is my personal opinion, I find all Winx seasons from the third onwards to be pretty rubbish. The people who use AI-art don't want to learn to draw. These people simply enjoy the images and share them with others. It would be different, if these people said they painted the picture and then it turns out it was an AI picture. That would be pretty stupid.
You act as if AIbros don't do that??? When literally everyday there are AI bros pretending to be actual artists and are making fake portfolios not disclosing it's AI Generated???? Not to talk about people who trace or do fake timelapses because THERE ARE APPS FOR DOING FAKE TIMELAPSES.
Why are they so obsessed to pretend to be artists if they don't give an f????
If you love doing art, you love the process of making it. You don't fake it or take shortcuts that remove the entire of the process of it. Gen AI takes away agency, artistic decisions that all artist make. It's like a slot machine.
You love art but then you agree with me I guess? Or you should. Art is more than the pretty images you get at the end. Art is the process behind each new image and all you've learned along the way of making that piece. What do AI users learn? How to write a proper shopping list????
The difference between Generative AI and banks, social media, hospitals etc, is that AI is entirely unnecessary and doesn't need to exist. Humans were better off without it and it's polluting everything around us, not only in a literal way but a psychological way. Its depressing going to buy a freaking advent calendar and seeing it's AI generated. That something that should bring me joy has become a sign of the decadence of the artistic field.
Soon kids who were born after GenAI or shortly before won't be able to tell appart between fictional AI slop and reality, because when you google something at least half of the results are AI generated. Kids are more in danger than ever of being s*xually exploited because of this tech. It's easier than ever to generate non-consensual pornography and other disgusting content because of AI.
All artists who are in the database that make the plagiarism machine were not compensated and of course didn't give consent. Nor photographers and other creatives. Meanwhile OpenAI is a multimillion company that has admited time and time again they are committing copyright infringement and can't possibly compensate all artists. So maybe if your project is literally illegal they shouldn't make it in the first place????
Who does this tech help besides scammers, grifters, .pdf files, people who spread misinformation and the ultra-rich? Nobody.
Because people who use it, use it as a quick way to get money and validation, it's a grift, there's no passion behind any of it. And that's the peinciple of art: Being passionate about what you do and do it because you love THE PROCESS to create and continue to learn every step of the way. You can draw a piece and explain to someone how you achieved XYZ effect, but can an AI bro say the same?
