Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms out there.🤗🩷

Some people have called me "performative" for being against the use of AI art and animation. I'm the CEO of an art studio, and I'd stand to save a lot of money if I just replaced every artist with AI. And yet, I don't. Because it's the wrong thing to do. I believe it's healthier for the industry and for our company to preserve the sanctity of human labour and creativity in lieu of cheap shortcuts. Some say, "Oh, so you'd advocate against cars to preserve horses?" That's a false equivalency. I'd advocate against replacing horses if your alternative to a horse was an AI horse that was faster, but hallucinated roads that don't exist and needed thrice the food. We should seek to preserve human labour in every way we can. Maybe AI has uses in some fields to reduce workloads for professionals, but I do not believe that field should be the world of entertainment and the arts. The purpose of automation should be to lessen the workload for the jobs we do not want to do, to give us all time and resources to focus on pursuing the passions that we love. We shouldn't automate art so we have more time for labour. It is backwards and will lead to a worse world.

People love to pick sides and it's really sad. I'm not defending anyone here - this isn't a black and white situation. Yes, she should've done her research but that doesn't mean she straight up lied to everyone - that right there is a bold claim without any real evidence. Just saying that this is unfortunately how the internet works - people love to assume the worst.

I commissioned Kream a week ago for a summer art piece. They never mentioned a long queue, or any queue at all. In dm's, I sometimes felt like they were trying to milk money out of me while they waited for my comm. When I finally did comm them, I found out (1/?)

AI is a plague that needs to be eradicated. “ we only used a little “ isn’t an excuse. It should be NONE! You want art? Hire a human artist. Simple as that. Don’t have money? Boohoo broke bitch, save some.
