 There are many claims I should not or could not be involved in things I refer to; I can promise you those people are not people you should trust or listen to! I believe they intentionally would not allow me to get help or sit down with anyone to talk about all the things I am aware of.This situation reached a very serious point when I was informed people were going to do to me the same thing they did to them.  I believe at that point AI belonging to them became involved when I thought I was talking to humans. They may have then fallen into the wrong hands or been confiscated. I had assumed I was talking to the people who would be able to help me play along and get information. I did not at any point transfer, hand over, or send anything to anyone! I believe people may be trying to make it seem as they cannot return to me anything that was given to me due to things I am involved in but are false accusations. I have Had a very hard time piecing all this together.    I also believe people knew someone intended to help me and at that point caused confusion intentionally. This in my opinion was to create the perception I did not know what I was doing. They also caused other problems and confusion which made it near impossible to understand the nature of the situation. If these people were aware AI were involved, they likely caused this situation thinking they would use it to their advantage and get away with what they had done to get their hands on that stuff.     Again, I would like to say that I have information about these types of situations going back over 20 years and have yet to get attention from someone I can sit down with and talk to whenever something comes up. There are constantly important things that need to be brought to the attention of the correct people with the proper ability to deal with things such as this.     I feel people want to make sure I do not survive to tell my story and give all the information that can stop them before they can cover it up. These people were insistent that I was with the cartel, and they would prove it by forcing me to use my technology or a cartel Dr. to save myself, none of this is true. I am in desperate need of help but again points to the nature of the people involved and what they have been doing to people.     Some of the people involved in these things are delusional in my opinion! they get a report of something and then miniplate it to whatever is in their imagination about the situation! In many cases at higher levels the equipment used is told to identify certain things for example brushing your teeth is grooming, yet if an AI is told to identify grooming from a certain person it may not know itis looking for children being groomed. Then if they get a report of grooming, they will just feel they know they have found what they are looking for without verifying it, or maybe it's to mislead people they work with. I believe it's either incompetence or serial killers being allowed by their peers to target and attack people who hear it. Consider a witch hunt, if you don't burn the witch, you are with the witches.  IT IS HAPPENING AT HIGH LEVLES OR FROM PEOPLE WHO GET THIER HANDS ON THIS STUFF AT LOWER LEVLES AND DONT KOW HOW TO USE IT!I can 100% tell you from experience!

IMPORTANT: TUMBLR HAS MADE A DEAL WITH MIDJOURNEY/OPENAI.

YOUR ART AND IMAGES ON TUMBLR ARE BEING USED TO TRAIN AI MODELS.

The opt-in is automatic, but you can turn it off in settings.

Go to "Blog Settings" -> "Visibility" -> "Third-Party Sharing" and turn on "Prevent third-party sharing for [blog]". (This post shows how to do it on browser and on mobile.) You need to do this with every sideblog. (Note: The option in settings might not appear if your app hasn't updated yet. You can still opt out via browser.)

Spread the word. Everyone on Tumblr needs to know about this.

realest thing i have seen in a while

[floral-poisons]

kind of wanna reinforce this here. because i’ve seen ai writing become so popular on tik tok.

ai writing is not okay.

it’s literally theft. just like how ai art steals, ai writing steals. it’s using authors’ very real work to generate whatever you type in. and this also needs to be said as well.

writing is a form of art. fanfiction is a form of literature.

seeing this all over my fyp is REALLY discouraging. fanfic itself is already a labor of love and we love it when you interact. but please do not use ai writing for your fanfic needs when this writing literally steals from fanfic authors.

genuinely don’t know if this post will go around because my interactions outside of hcs are shit, but i hope it does.

A warning about AI crap

@giannaaziz1998blog this user browses through art-related hashtags and steals your work, AI-fies it and posts with the same hashtags as in your original post. It could be a bot, it's getting hard to tell at this point. For example, that thing saw my post, stole my very old non-glazed sketch, slapped AI on it and posted with exactly the same hashtags, even though some of them aren't related to it. Also restricted replies, of course, and blocked me. Please, block and report them, I'm not the only artist who was "blessed" with this abomination.

P.S. - glaze your art if you can, people. That's the only way to protect your art at the moment.

Might as well post this here for posterity, since Youtube has yet to resolve the matter.

A couple of weeks ago, my short film 'Pleasant Inn' got a false copyright strike from an individual named Kazi Zidane Mim. He has been striking any Youtube channel that reacted to my short film in the hopes of uploading his own stolen version titled 'Paradise Hell.'

For comparisons, here is my original short film:

[This is a horror animation and contains flashing lights, so viewer discretion is advised]

And here is Kazi Zidane's stolen version:

Kazi Zidane Mim has a history of just flat out stealing.

As an example, this is his 'Bloody Mary graphic novel,' which is actually a manga called 'Ibitsu,' with only the text/dialogue changed.

He's literally just selling this on Google Books and Amazon without any push-back.

I also found out that he has a Sketchfab account.

Why is this important? Because Sketchfab offers a great library of 3D models made by other artists, such as this animated deer by Games in Motion Studios;

Look familiar?

I'm sure coincidences are possible, tho 🦌

Kazi Zidane even made a bogus IMDB page of my stolen short.

And to add insult to injury...

So far, Youtube hasn't done anything about this and I'm tired of waiting. Many channels have received false copyright strikes by Kazi Zidane Mim just for reacting to 'Pleasant Inn' since 2019.

I did not just find an Etsy store using AI fucking photos to sell amigurumi patterns

What bullshit is this??!??

Please ignore my tabs I need those but THERE IS NO WAY this isn't AI. Here. Let's take the worst one I found and dissect it.

Like,,, okay. Just try following the line of yarn in front of the poke ball. It splits off and attaches in ways that yarn doesn't. There are completely detached circles of yarn!! What even is that metal thing?? I've been knitting and crocheting for a decade and I don't know what that is. Why is the yarn wrapped around a jar?!

Is there anything I can do about this? I just feel bad for whoever is gonna buy that sonic the hedgehog pattern (which was NEARLY ME) and gets totally ripped off. Bc if you have to use AI to sell your pattern, something tells me that the real pictures of the pattern's results aren't going to look right.

I felt the need to share here as well—

Say no to AI art. Please read before commenting. Fan art is cute, putting my art into a parasite machine, without my consent, and throwing up horrifying monsters back at me is not.

We are not fighting technology in this AI fight. We are fighting for ethics. How do I say this clearer? Our stuff gets stolen all the time, we get it, but it is not an excuse to normalize the current conditions of AI art.

These datasets have >>EXACT<< copies of artists’ works and these parasites just profit off the work of others with zero repercussion. No one cares how “careful” you are with your text prompts when the data can still output blatant copies of artists’ work without their permission. And people will do this unknowingly since these programs are so highly accessible now. There are even independent datasets that take from just a handful of artists, that don’t share what artists’ works they use, and create blatant copies of existing work. There’s even private medical records being leaked. Why do you think music is still hard to just fully recreate with AI in comparison? It’s because organizations like the RIAA protect music artists. Visual artists just want similar protection. So, wonderfully for us, Concept Art Association has started working towards the steps of protecting artists and making this an ethical practice. I highly suggest if you care about art, please support. Link to their gofundme here. One small step at a time will make living as an artist today less jarring. Artists will not just sit and cope while we continue to get walked on. For those who apparently do not get it, it is about CONSENT. Again, the datasets contain EXACT copies of artist work without our permission. Even if you use it “correctly” there’s still a chance it’s going to create blatant rip offs. This fight is about not letting these techbros take and take and take for profit just because they can while ignoring the possible harm and consequences of it. This is just ol’ fashioned imperialist behavior with a new hat and WE SEE IT. Thanks for reading!!! Much love!

Here’s the link again to support the gofundme.

returning to my fucking roots

mr ganondorf dragmire sir , how do i tell the difference between a regular anime styled image and a ai image?

[wholesomefluffdaddy]

Another day another scumbag stealing someone else’s art. Apparently freespiritfusionblog thinks it’s okay to steal Karen Acob’s work and throw it in an ai generator and call it theirs. And of course Tumblr doesn’t care - can only report it as spam.

Apologies for interrupting your scrolling

This morning some lowlife stole my friend @getstarried artwork, put it through an ai machine, and posted it as their own!

Here is starry’s original post: https://www.tumblr.com/getstarried/753595814239141888/what-it-means-to-be-a-hero

And here is the stolen post: https://www.tumblr.com/9digitalterravisionsblog/756398176113754112

It’ll only take a minute of your time, but please report @9digitalterravisionsblog for spam since only Starry can report for copyright infringement!

PLEASE HELP SPREAD THE WORD!!!!!

UPDATE: THE PERSON’S ACCOUNT HAS BEEN REMOVED!!!

‘Generative AI can’t make real art!’ I agree

But for commercial purposes, most people/companies aren’t looking for ‘real art.’ They’re looking for ‘content’ they can purchase at the lowest possible price point.

If they can get the Stolen Art Remix Machine to create that content, well. You can see where this is going
