generative AI literally makes me feel like a boomer. people start talking about how it can be good to help you brainstorm ideas and i’m like oh you’re letting a computer do the hard work and thinking for you???
In light of politics coming out of the UK, USA, and many other countries lately, I thought maybe I should just post a reminder that transphobes are NOT welcome on any of my blogs. I don't care if you like the subjects I post about. If I catch you, you will be blocked. I fucking hate you and hope you either change or suffer consequences of your bigotry.
And to any fellow trans people reading this, especially trans women: You are loved.
why was this low-key romantic
I'm constantly surrounded by AI generated art images. I see it in public, social media, from my family, worst of all I have non-artist friends who use and have Patreons making good profit off creating AI generated images. As someone who is an artist, I have been feeling devastated for months as AI continues to become more normalized. I have worked very hard, dedicating my life to learning this craft. I feel my skills are essentially useless now. I have lost my chance at obtaining a career within the industry. Art is so easily accessible, anyone can generate anything now. The vast majority of people don't care about artists, they care about the end product. I can't compete with something that generates faster, higher quality images by the dozen in a matter of seconds. People argue that AI makes mistakes, and isn't good quality. This issue tends to be a unexperienced user who generated something using poor settings. AI can generate images without errors, and can be trained to work well and look good. I don't think artist realize how much it has improved, because they tend to look away, or are not exposed to it as much as I am within my circle. I know it lack's humanity, but people and corporations don't care. My family and friends don't care. People are becoming popular and getting tons of recognition, and money simply by generating AI art images. No one cares. I am losing my sanity, I don't know what to do. I miss the times of admiring art, knowing it was human made and someone worked hard. I struggle to find the motivation to finish my own works, knowing it could just be generated in seconds with AI, and a good majority of people wouldn't care, or be able to tell the difference. I don't understand why robots are creating art instead of doing our labor work. I thought art was one of the last parts of humanity we had left. I don't know how my future will be as time goes on, but I am so tired of trying. I have not used any AI in my work, and I want to remain true to art and its amazing supportive community. I know I've set myself up for failure by refusing to accept this new tool. So I will be left behind.
