Description
EDIT: Any pro-AI supporters coming in here to leave their messages of insults or ridicule people will have your comments just be deleted. Ain't got time for that. Stop being childish and grow up. If you don't have any valid points to leave here then don't bother.
Yes, I'm sure if you have been involved in the art community these days that you have seen this image about a thousand times already on every social media platform.
Obviously I haven't been posting much illustration based artwork anywhere lately, due to the fact that I have been consumed (so much) with getting out art for my Etsy store (s).
But even so, this major topic needs to be discussed that is going on actively in the art community now, this is a serious matter for all the art trained and authentic artists like myself to spread awareness on about the harmful use of AI generated images or apps that are already becoming a big thing around the web these days. I can't stress enough of how horrible it is of a person (or people) to go around using other artists artwork and their hard-earned skill to gain fame and money from for their own selfish reasons. Unfortunately, that's mainly what I have been running into seeing with ones using AI these days. It's pretty disgusting and very sad that there are people out there like that in this world. There are people that only care about themselves and not the harm that they could do to another person. A dark truth and dark reality of this rather very rotten world we are unfortunately living in together.
At first, I had really no qualms toward AI when I first heard about it, that people were using it because it seemed at the time people were just using it in a harmless way, like for art referencing, for art help, or to become a better artist in general. That use of the AI I saw as fine because ones are using it as a helpful tool and not as a tool for gain if you get what I mean. The problem that overall lies with AI being around is people using it in a wrongful manner, and this in particular affects artists like myself who had years of art training and practice to develop the skill level we are at in art now. The skill didn't come from a computer after all, where we just type in prompts and 'voila' we have a whole quality well done art made and considered professionally skilled artists from it. No. That is NOT how things work. That's not the reality. And if anyone believes that is the case to becoming an actual artist, then ones are very mistaken. You ones are very wrong. Becoming a professionally skilled artist to where you can qualify to be a teacher for it, make a living off it, get into the industry for it, takes years (YEARS) of practicing and studying of art to get there. Otherwise ones will have no idea of what they are doing. They will have no idea of where to start when it comes to anything related to art. I started off traditionally doing my artwork before I decided to switch over to doing digital artwork. I don't exactly need a computer to draw even at the level I am at with my artwork to this day. It all came from me practicing often and through art school training to have drawing become a naturally embedded skill in me.
In general, digital artwork is just another art medium to use as the same drawing mechanics apply just like traditional artwork is done. Digital artists are just using a tablet and a pen that makes the drawings become created through the computer. I feel the need to even go into this topic because there are people out there that actually believe that digital artists are not artists either and that's just totally false. So much misinformation being told around in the art community these days that it can be a bit sickening and irritating to me. Digital artists have the same drawing mechanics that apply to them as traditional artists do. It's just a different medium is being used to where you have more tools that are available to you to use through the 'computer'. Switching to digital also saves you a bit on money, like buying art supplies since you don't run out as much on lead or paper when it comes to doing digital artwork. When I was drawing traditionally, I remember I had to keep going to art stores and stocking back up on HB pencils, markers, and paper every time it seemed. ><;;
Going back onto the actual topic, digital artwork also can not be put in comparison to AI artwork because the same creating mechanics obviously don't apply there like it does with traditional artwork. With AI, ones are not actually drawing anything is the obvious fact to point out when it comes to it. They are just typing and telling the computer what to produce for them among their words they have typed. Which the computer goes and grabs whatever it has gathered to find around (likely stolen artwork) to produce their set of words as a whole art image to give to them. A digital art creator does not work this way AT ALL. If that was the case for all digital artists, we would be producing out quality finished artwork waaay more quickly than we do, like in a day, even in a few hours. Digital art does not involve using words like some type of code you are putting in. It is a naturally done process of actually 'drawing' on a blank canvas that is only shown on the computer of you drawing whatever you are drawing. You're not actually telling the computer to create anything for you like an AI is.
It's crazy, but I have been seeing people around saying they made this or that from AI and now considered professionally skilled artists from something a computer generated for them. It does not work that way. I can't repeat myself enough that is not the case at all. If you can't actually draw whatever that computer produces for you, and I mean starting from a full blank canvas being in front of you then you simply did not create the artwork. You simply are not an artist of the artwork. That's the reality. It's like for example that I buy a TV dinner out of a store and it's already prepared for me and everything, and all I got to do is put it in a microwave or stove to cook it, it does so and there I have my meal made. I'm not considered a star chef from me doing this. I'm not even really considered a good cook because I did not actually 'make it', it was already made for me. I obviously don't 'own' the recipe of the meal either and never will.
An analogy that is rather similar to the use of AI Generated Art being used by an everyday user. Ones will maybe argue and say I can't compare cooking to art making, but yes I can because it's actually very similar in terms of ones saying they are now skilled artists and created this or that and own this or that from an AI producing something for them. Please know the difference because otherwise parading around speaking like that just makes one seem very ignorant and clearly not knowing what they are talking about when it comes to making art in the first place.
As a big art enthusiast and big creative enthusiast I have been all my life (since I was a little girl to be specific), I will always be informative as much as I can when it comes to art as a subject matter. I literally have done it all my life, really.
And I can tell you that it's pretty sad and bad how things have become in the art community because of this whole AI thing. I have seen people suffer mentally, literally crying as they will make vids of themselves to upload on Youtube expressing their struggles, which is really no surprise because there are ones I've came around who I knew used art as a form of escape from depression, or a way of venting, or whatever it may be they are suffering from or dealing with. After all, art can be a form of therapy, it sometimes is even for me. Unfortunately, also through the comments on those very type videos were a lot of awful type people leaving these awful type messages of like 'you need to get over it', 'get a real job', 'art isn't important, never been'. Just ridiculing behavior from the average person who does not create art for a living and care nothing about it. You are having people now regret they took on art as a career in the first place because they feel it amounts to nothing anymore with AI being present.
I will NEVER regret my art journey, or ever regret taking on art as a major to pursue. I will continue to go after it to achieve what I'm trying to achieve with it to this day. I am very proud of where I have become with my art because it has definitely improved from when I first posted on this very site in 2004 when I was just 18 years old, fresh out of high school. I wanted to become a successful independent artist, to share my creativity of art to the world. AI will not stop me from doing that and it shouldn't stop anyone else who loves to create artwork or create anything in general. Don't allow it. A computer can never replicate a soul in the end. Can never actually replace you as an individual. After all, AI does not have a soul and it can be even noticeable in the art that it produces that it doesn't.
The bottom line lies with this whole AI situation is that regulations need to be put forth on how to use it in a right way if it's going to be here. There should be absolutely no profit making from it to start off with because it should not be a money making tool, but a tool to just help one become better in their own artwork if one is going to use it.
As I had mentioned on Artstation, (because BTW I have a Artstation account just look up DaphInteresting on there if you like to follow me), I will always be a strong advocate to REAL ARTISTS and REAL CREATORS. They are the real MVPS. This obviously is not a game but just to lighten up my mood a bit in the message here lol. I'm usually not a very strict and serious person on the regular but with this I'm very much serious and it can come to upset me even over matters like this because this is a very serious and upsetting matter when it comes to artists like myself. It shouldn't be taken lightly or where ones are going around telling us to 'get over it, stop whining, and cope' situation. Real artists voices need to be heard and they deserve to be heard, not silenced and forgotten.
Online protests, petitions, and campaigns from artists all over the globe are currently going on to deal with the effects and issues caused by AI. Just to say, you do not have to be an actual artist to show your support, you can just be a supporter of one that prefers art to be done by the 'soul of a human' and not a 'soulless computer'. I will always still strongly encourage people to give support to their favorite artist out there, by commissioning them, buying their merch, whatever it may be in relation to them as being an artist.
Please don't ever drop them for AI.
When it comes to me, I appreciate very much all those who have commissioned me and even if you haven't ever commissioned me you just showing support to my artwork by getting it out there for more people to see, whether that's faving, reblogging, commenting, etc, I appreciate that all so much. Even the ones that will go out there way to find me and credit me when someone re-posts my artwork online without my permission and not bother to do it themselves.
I appreciate the support and all of that very much, it has encouraged me a lot along the way to keep going and getting better at my craft. It all done naturally and without an AI to produce it for me, mind you.
I know this is a very, very, long message already, but I'm clearly passionate about this topic as I had mentioned before.
Again, you can show your support by joining into the cause by re-posting this very image on your account. These big art platforms like DeviantArt will come to see it and hopefully come to do something about addressing the proper use of AI on their sites. That is if they are going to continue to have this be a thing.
Overall, AI wouldn't be so much of a problem if there weren't 'those people' out there using it wrongfully and maliciously. Otherwise, it ruins it for everyone and you're gonna have this on-going rise of protests, petitions, campaigns, and even lawsuits being given out by real artists, real creators, and even big owned production companies to try to have something to be done about it. AI can NOT continue on the way it is now after all. That I can assure you because we artists and creators will not stand for it. AI is very one-sided and unethical in how it is being used now. I've heard it will not just stop with art either, it will go onto more other things to come and try to knock people out of their jobs with. This all I talk about is very serious stuff and not a joke. Trust that it isn't. Everybody can come to be affected by AI in some sort of way.
Please don't just sit back and do nothing because you feel this whole ordeal doesn't affect you, or you believe it's inevitable so it doesn't matter to do anything anyway. It ALWAYS matters to do something. In the end, AI can come to affect us all as humankind and that will be a very dark world to live in when it does. I know I might be seeming dramatic but it's all a reality, a dark future ahead to actually think about.
If you have actually read all of this all the way to the end, I thank you for it, I thank you for listening to me and my views on this whole matter. I don't know if I'm anybody's favorite artist out there, but if I am please continue to support me as I do appreciate your support very much.
My viewpoints I have typed out here will remain here and being only on my page here about AI, not going anywhere.
Thank you again.
