AI art gives me the same vibes as taking a beautifully built house from the gallery of the Sims 4, redecorating it a bit to suit my use, and then posting it back to the gallery to share the beautiful house I created. Yeah, I did some of the work, yeah it’s not exactly the same thing, but I didn’t do the brunt of the work, I didn’t spend hours creating it and only took maybe twenty minutes to alter it. It still doesn’t make it mine. It’s fine to use for your own personal use maybe, but you absolutely should not share it anywhere else, especially not without crediting the original creator (something that is almost impossible to do with AI art programs)

#seeing people defending this shit on Twitter and it bothers me so much #ai art #ai art discourse #this isn’t even a perfect analogy because at least the builders upload their content with the expectation that people will probably alter it #something that artists who share their work dont #this was specifically promoted by someone literally posting an artist’s work #and asking what to input into this ai generator to make a similar piece #not everyone has artistic talent #and not everyone has the funds to be able to commission or just purchase an art work #but unfortunately that is something you are just going to have to go without #these aren’t some big corporate billionaires you’re hurting by doing this #It’s mostly small creators who spend hours days weeks to perfect their work #only to have you take two seconds to take that hard work and pretend you made something
