As many of you know, I have a writing habit (hobby). I've even published on Amazon!
But what you might not know, is that you can read my (slightly less edited) book on Wattpad for free: wattpad.com/story/40012509…
Have a look! LMK what you think!

I hate inpainting. But now I'm done, I think? Now I can go back to my other tasks that need doing. The theme was cats and dogs can get along. Enjoy!

Consequence of that event are ...... like we expected ...... that Doctor Tania .... after her exposition to the gas become ........ "sexually frenzy" ❤️🔥🥵❤️🔥 After only a few seconds ...... she started to teasing Doctor @FurryBuns who we think was in a very bad situation ...... specially with Doctor Tania 😳 ........ but as we thinking it was just a survival instinct from him ...... unexpectedly become more like ..... he was out of control himself too 🫣
Direct proof about the fact that we were wrong about the compound "S.E.X" .... we at first thinking it was an "Women's Aphrodisiac" ..... but in fact .... it happen that being an aphrodisiac wasn't his first propriety ..... he is .... in fact ..... acting more like a ...... "chastity belt remover" 😈🍆
Let me explain quickly ..... the compound remove the "Morality Acting" (the fact to stay polite and acting like an adult person despite some already existing attraction between 2 elements) and replace it more by a ....... "Intense sexual attraction" instead ....... we already try this theory later on 2 subject none compatible and the result was without any appeal ..... poor @AgentBlueMax was punch in the face by that white goth German mare 🫣 ..... his fine but his ego have taking a huge strike 😙👌

@MidnightJfox It was never about the making of art. Most will still say "pick up a pencil" knowing full well most people will never be able to reach certain levels of quality. They don't care if they are ableist.

Some thoughts on AI "art", vs digital and traditional art, kind of a continuation on the last post.
I'll repeat what a couple of brilliant people have recently said: Slop isn't exclusive to AI works, AI just makes it easier to create and at much higher volumes.
Secondly, it's rather arrogant, and misguided, to assume that a person making something using a free account on some image gen site was ever going to be a customer at the prices hypothetical "you" most likely charge.
Good AI art, just like digital or traditional takes way more time than just typing a prompt and clicking "generate".
Potentially hours of experimentation to get the pose' composition, and scene elements right, potentially hours inpainting missing details or elements, and potentially hours doing cleanup (post, as photo/videographers and 3D artists would call it) in an image editing program.
For those that read that and said, "So why not just do it for real then"?
What about people who can't, but still yearn to create? What about people who've spent years, maybe decades trying to master the basics only to still produce worse drawings than a 3 year old using mushy cheerios?
That's pretty darned ableist of you, innit?
Now, for the purposes of debate, I think a fair wage for artists is in the neighborhood of $25 USD /hr and should include research, prep, and time spent communicating with the customer as well as the actual "drawing" time.
If someone is an extremely in demand artist and their quality of work and customer service warrants it, then they absolutely deserve to charge more. But they're also an outlier for the purposes of this discussion.
Do I for one minute believe someone spent 50-100 hours on a flat shaded grayscale digital art piece? No.
If they did, there's something wrong and they shouldn't be making the customer pay for it*.
*Exception: asshole customers that drastically change things partway through, pester you to death, have unrealistic expectations, etc, and are basically the reason a 10 hour job took 150. In those cases charge the ever loving snot out of 'em cuz you deserve every penny for dealing with that.
Do I believe its possible to get a commission for digital art that genuinely takes 100 hours or more to complete? ABSOLUTELY. I also believe that's the exception, not the rule.
Traditional media is a whoooole other story, and involves supplies costs as well. It's usually a completely different kind of client, too, so for the purposes of this post I'm not really talking about "true" traditional artists.
I can't really speak to people that accept commissions for AI art either, because I haven't seen prices, but I would hope that depending on the complexity of work, their prices accurately reflect time spent on a piece rather than some arbitrary amount.
*There's also the fact that many open source models prohibit their use for commercial purposes to consider.
The elephant in the room: Style can't be copyrighted. It can be trademarked.
That doesn't change the ethics of misusing AI to copy an artist's style, and it is still copyright infringement to use it to copy someone else's character(s) without prior authorization.
But, in those instances, the "how" doesn't matter. Misusing a tool is still misusing a tool regardless of what that tool is.
