if ur loudly anti ai bc u support artists, but then u think artists should do commissions for less than $100 a piece.... which is including hourly wage, the cost of their skill level (years of training), the tools (tablet etc if not trad materials), and even giving you rights to use the art..... then do you actually support artists right to earn a living wage or not?

#nonhorsgaem #just really fucking annoyed at ppl who think artists should work for pennies but then go omg ai is whats ruining jobs for artists #sweetie for that 15 dollars u wanted to pay the artist would need to generate 95% of the pic in ai to make it worthwhile #if they actually need to pay for food and living expenses and healthcare and you know things humans need to live #teenage artists who do it to earn extra money for unnecessary expenses should not normalise low costs and bring down -#the perceived value of artists work for everyone but thats exactly what happened during the history of digital art on the internet #and now even ppl who are actually trying to pay their bills and eat food are pushed to sell for nothing while you say “i hate ai”#but youre not equally loud about fair commission pricing and the actual value of artists work outside of the ai context
