The best way to beat up impostor syndrome there days is to really truly internalize that genAI can't do what you do. It works. Every. Time. Just keep doing what you do man

Greg Baldwin, the voice of Uncle Iroh in ‘Avatar: The Last Airbender,’ criticizes Paramount and Nickelodeon over the state of the franchise: “Paramount doesn’t care about ATLA. The new regime at Paramount is straight up evil.”

"Learning a lot. I am absolutely understanding the concern of using AI." Bud, this was you barely two years ago. You cannot play the fucking ignorance card to cover your ass, and the fact that you tried is proof enough that this apology is as hollow as your artistic integrity. Get fucked

Two twitter posts from Jorge R. Gutierrez in 2024 calling out GenAI for what it is.

Top post: "AI" with a screenshot of a man looking back at the camera and saying "the secret ingredient is crime!"

Bottom post: "The original animation creators of the future are learning skills by working up the ladder with experience and teamwork. With all the AI short term thinking, a whole generation of creators will not be able to grow to make original hit movies and series. The ecosystem is in peril."

Jorge R. Gutierrez has announced he is dropping out of Amazon’s AI program and will no longer be making the animated series Punky Duck. “I promise to do better moving forward. Thank you for your patience with me.”

STOP posting AI images. I don't give a shit what your reasoning is for making them. I don't give a shit if you are only using it "for personal reasons." I don't give a shit if you "don't intend to use it in the book itself." If you're posting it here on Blue Sky, you are subjecting my eyes to it

Shocked to see some artists saying that using ai slop as reference is ok. It's really fucking not. Not only are you still using the mashed-up uncredited work of the rest of us artists, but it degrades your whole visual library because it hallucinates. If you do this I do not respect you

Oh this is a really important win. So you know people who use AI generated images and then copy that as a physical painting? This means that as it has no copyright protection (because AI does not), if it's too similar to the existing art AI ripped off, it is easier to fight back legally.

I won. I won my appeal.

The Luxembourg court has ruled that Jeff Dieschburg infringed upon my copyright when he used my work without consent.

Using a different medium was irrelevant. My work being 'available online' was irrelevant. Consent was necessary. 1/
