Description
If you want to call yourself an artist, pick up a pencil and start practising. You can't call yourself an artist because you've typed a description into a computer program and it's then made the image for you. That requires no more skill or artistry than using Google Images. This is supposed to be an art site and it's becoming absolutely infested with ai-generated crap, mainly because it's so quick and easy to produce, (even for idiots) that the volumes of it can ramp up exponentially. I wish DeviantArt would ban it from their platform or at least make it easier to filter it out of searches and make it so that people who want to see actual art don't have their homepages ruined by computer-generated rubbish.

It's called artificial for a reason.
