And the fact that you can even imitate other artists stile is infuriating. I see prompts as "Wlop art style" and I'm like hfuejjsidjr WLOP?! Have you any idea on how much Wlop is an influence in the artist community? Wlop makes masterpieces with animations and 3d modelling! The effort of that artist get thrown away to create your fucking hentai/porn shit.

Because, let's be clear, that is what mostly AI image generator is used for, i won't even call it "ai art".

Pixiv is invaded by such content, and so are social media, which makes it even worse.

"oH buT IM nOt sTeAliNG aRt!1! DO YoU knOW HoW diFficuLT iS to dEscRibe a chAr and HAve it lOOk the sAme?1? I wROte, it Is MiNe! CrEDiT MY ART!!”

Shut. The. Fuck. Up.

You know what is hard? 8 years passed studying anatomy and color theory, hours spent bent on a piece of paper or in front of a screen to see a crumb of improvements. months spent in canvas! Back that hurts, eyes that water and hands so cold they are almost blue! That needs credit. That is art!

*sigh* Reminding all of you once again...

AI art is stolen art.

If you're pro-AI art, you're harming human artists. Full stop.

At this point, I don't care if it's "real art" or not because that's not even what the real issue is, it's that it's already hard enough to succeed as an artist without having our work stolen, thrown into a digital blender, and spat back out in our faces, so we can be replaced because the value of our creativity and skill has been reduced to "content" and dollar signs. Do we mean nothing to you? Is your convenience worth telling us we don't matter?

These programs and everyone who uses them no matter how many times we've told you this can get fucked. I'm done being nice about it.

Sincerely, your salty neighborhood artist.

How funny would it be if in a fate story a mage tracked down a relic for a specific hero summon just to find out once they do the ritual and get the wrong person that the relic had been misidentified by archaeologists.

I can just picture Kiritsugu giving Iri a ten minute lecture about how he got the scabbard of Excalibur and how they can use it to summon king Arthur who will easily win the grail war for them and also legend says that it has healing abilities that can help her with her whole turning into a cup problem, and “don’t worry I have this whole thing planned out”, and then he does the ritual and some big buff male knight shows up so he is like “hello king Arthur” and the knight looks at him with a funny face and laughs

“King Arthur? My name is Gawain. Oh cool! You guys found my scabbard!”

Iri is like “so does this mean I’m not getting any help about the whole turning into a cup thing?

And Kiritsugu is plotting out 500 ways to murder the mage family relic dealer who tracked down “king Arthur’s” scabbard that he built his entire grail war plan around.
