*sigh* If your Kickstarter video/image is AI, I won't back it. If your book has an AI cover, I won't read it. If you're a public supporter of AI use for creative work, I will unfollow you. I cannot stress enough how offensive I find AI use in the arts. It is outright theft, it is lazy, it is gross.

also, while I feel like these conversations often devolve into “and it sucks anyway” I think that’s besides the point and risks falling into the “only good people can make good art” trap it doesn’t actually matter whether it’s good or not - you still shouldn’t give her your money
