She/Her | 28 | Black | Artist | Suggestive Art 🔞 PFP by @tofu93.bsky.social My commissions are: CLOSED My portfolio: https://joyshards2.carrd.co/ I made a feed: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:mgtnhejeyw4i7hrly7fgrwyg/feed/aaagcyx5ixhvs

i think, now, more than ever its really important to interact with people who like your art and vice versa, and cultivate more community and trust among artists and commissioners and followers in general. its not a perfect system by any means but i think building trust between everyone will help

This is what people mean by AI is theft. Someone I know later found out an artist (16k followers) they got a commision from uses AI and now they don't have funds to commish me or another artist they like. Not only does the slop machine steal art, these scammers directly steal work from real artists

my simple way of looking at it is that when your hungry anything will taste good, but when you're constantly being assailed with amazing food then excellence is just to be expected, and what was once wonderous becomes the norm, and thats exactly what happened with entertainment.

It’s hard to explain but tv was better when you couldn’t watch the show you wanted whenever you wanted to watch it and most of the shows were worse and the TVs were worse and the entire experience was worse, that’s when it was better

Making calls sucks, but as someone with really bad phone anxiety even I can say it's actually really easy and quick! I promise you that you'll feel so much better if you do it and if you get a lil treat afterwards it'll be even better~

They certainly PRETEND to be useful. They pretend to make things soooo much easier, soooo much faster. Soooo much less friction. The moment you buy into the pretense, you also buy into that philosophy of effortless ease. And that's when your process and your work starts becoming sloppy.

There are a lot of critiques of LLMs that I agree with but "they suck and aren't useful" doesn't really hold water. I understand people not using them because of social, economic, and environmental concerns. And I also understand people using them because they can be very useful. Thoughts?

ai feels like a special poison for ppl who know they have a certain level of intelligence bc they think they resist the siren call and use it moderately. it reminds me of that one reddit thread where someone said they will just do heroin (once) and then spiralled into a years long addiction.
