There’s a protest going on against AI art over on artstation, so I feel like now is the time for me to make a statement on this issue!
I wholeheartedly support the ongoing protest against AI art. Why? Because my artwork is included in the datasets used to train these image generators without my consent. I get zero compensation for the use of my art, even though these image generators cost money to use, and are a commercial product.
Musicians are not being treated the same way. Stability has a music generator that only uses royalty free music in their dataset. Their words: “Because diffusion models are prone to memorization and overfitting, releasing a model trained on copyrighted data could potentially result in legal issues.” Why is the work of visual artists being treated differently?
Many have compared image generators to human artists seeking out inspiration. Those two are not the same. My art is literally being fed into these generators through the datasets, and spat back out of a program that has no inherent sense of what is respectful to artists. As long as my art is literally integrated into the system used to create the images, it is commercial use of my art without my consent.
Until there is an ethically sourced database that compensates artists for the use of their images, I am against AI art. I also think platforms should do everything they can to prevent scraping of their content for these databases.
Artists, speak out against this predatory practice! Our art should not be exploited without our consent, and we deserve to be compensated when our art is exploited for commercial use.
Fun discovers are work today.
We are considered a high risk store and the new SM just came from a store that closed because of that very reason.
So guess who should probably start looking into other places.
Me. It's me.
Also people already employeed at my work are being fucked over with their hours being cut and some being demoted without being told (it's more complicated and I'm eating so I'm not typing it all out.)
shits getting messy.
I'm making 2 more snowglobe tumblers. One is officially the tweels cause I ordered specific twst decals for them, and I'm making a LoZ one for my sister.
So I got 6 or 7 double walled tumblers struned across our craft desk. There is glitter everywhere, there is food dye, uv resin, qtips and papertowels, it's a fucking mess. I want to make another even though I don't need them.
ESPECIALLY since I've only really finished one.
vvv This guy vvv
Decided to play the original Baldur's Gate and while playing I noticed the in game year is 1368, so I got scared and looked up when Astarion was born, 1229... He was 139...
Astarion was under Cazador's control during the original BG game!
ASTARION NOOOOO
He's a shoe man, so why wouldn't he share his love for shoes with people he likes? Especially when said person can wear all different kinds of shoes.
The next year Mailo is at NRC he bonds with Floyd. They become buddies and Floyd spoils him, much to Jade and Azuls chagrin.
(I got a whole story for Mailo now. Him, Leona, and Floyd, all buds in the future, just so much story)
Mailos' new fancy panties. Scar themed for Leona to enjoy (or to cringe/laugh at, but ultimately enjoy).
It is simple, nothing over the top nsfw, but it is still censored.
:If nsfw makes you uncomfortable please don't click more.:
I like to imagine when Mailo is older he grows his hair out and dresses more fancy.
omg ...
I think I'm done with Super.
Why is tumblr advertising Grandmas who will beat my ass???
Oh my fucking god not again.
!!!DEAR MINORS IN THE DBZ FANDOM!!!
Do NOT interact with me. You guys are creepy and need to fuck off.
I'm not your friend, and never will. Go away.
I had to do baby Leona too.
A sleepy cuddly cub.
I need to draw him and Mailo again.
