Saying you’re an AI “artist” is like: Cooking a frozen meal and calling yourself a chef. Hanging a photo on the wall, and calling yourself an architect. Pouring a glass of lemonade from a bottle from the store, and claiming you juiced the lemons yourself.

How to use AI ethically: 1) DO NOT USE AI. THERE IS NOTHING ETHICAL ABOUT IT.

"You don't like data centers? Well, golf courses are bad for the environment too, so I guess we'll get rid of those too??"

I'm looking forward to playing Mina the Hollower~! (This is an animation I made two years ago)

Please keep creating, even if you think you suck at it, please keep going. What you're doing matters so much more than you realize in a world that is actively trying to suck out creativity and heart from the world for the sake profit and greed Be the heart the world needs

You can’t use stolen flour, stolen butter, stolen eggs, stolen blueberries, and make legal muffins with them.

This is what that AI money is buying. The good name of respected artists. They're counting on this legitimizing AI usage in creative fields. Unfortunately for them all its doing is causing people to immediately lose respect for whoever touts the tech.

I beg people I know the economy/world is fucked up, but don't EVER sell out on your dreams for profit/greed Especially with something that is actively harming the environment

Remember that time Tara Strong made an announcement that she was producing a cartoon that had heavy involvement with NFTs and she was convinced all the people complaining about it were just "haters" and that "NFTs were the future." Remember how that turned out? That's right, it didn't.

Animation nerds upon hearing todays news:

AI has not had and will never have a place in the animation industry. Create with your hands and your heart with passion, not with a soulless machine that steals and spits out.

These AI companies are trying SO HARD to get you to accept it. "Look! We got these popular artists to use it and endorse it! You like these artists, don't you? Don't you want to support your favorite artists?" THEY ARE LOSING MONEY AND NEED YOU TO BUY IN. DON'T FALL FOR IT.

Is it just me or is slop getting easier to spot?

Part of why the "become obsessed with a blorbo to improve at art" thing is true is because they'll make you do shit you normally might not even try Blorbo is a knight in a fantasy series? Welp I guess I gotta learn how to draw armor now Blorbo has a mech? Welp I guess I'm drawing a fucking mech

This weird pattern of has-been Gen X celebrities getting suckered into shilling for GenAI needs to be studied. Bunch of ex-creatives. X-creatives, if you will. By definition you aren’t an animator if you’re having an AI make moving images for you.

Infinity on the Scoville Scale.

the worst people on the planet have hello kitty avatars and @s like yummycrumbly but DETESTABLEPERVERT666 would probably pull me out of a burning building

GenAI creators are not creators.

Anyway, support indie animation because we actually make cartoons

When you read disappointing news in your field:

btw did I mention i have never used AI and will never use AI. in case that wasn't clear

I think it's a little odd LTD made farting a quirk for Miis. Cause in the 3DS game, Miis would just rip ass at the most random times and it always caught me off guard, cause sometimes it sounded like they shit themselves. Plus when another Mii was in the room, they'd look at the offender like: O_O

My April Fluffles have been reduced in price by $10 each! Lilac is now only $20, and Great Orange Tip Butterfly is $40! Available on my Ko-Fi shop! ☕ ko-fi.com/hopetheprinc... I also have MerFluffles available right now 🧜‍♀️✨ bsky.app/profile/hope... #adoptables #openadopts #adoptable #Fluffles

You cannot negotiate with the "cutting artists out of art" machine, by which I mean the GenAI industry itself. The reason corporations are salivating over this stuff is that the idea of eliminating all those jobs really gets their fuckin rocks off. They're horny for eliminating artists.

yikes :(

Redraw of a piece I did back in 2010, was in middle school, my drawing tool was a MacBook track pad, and had no clue how to draw people. ;_; 🚫Please don't reupload!🚫 #RieBreadsArt #OCS

Just tried deckblue and I love it. A fan of the space saving with the invisible hashtags, and I really like that it reminds you to write alt text on your images if you're posing from PC. Regular bluesky doesn't do that from PC, and sometimes I forget to do it, and feel real bad afterwards.

For naughty Miis. 😛

social media can truly leave a dent in ur head at times i'm here 2 remind that likes don't EQUAL who you are!!! KEEP creating 🖌️ KEEP enjoying ☀️ KEEP doing what you love 💖 similar if u get a bad grade, it doesn't DEFINE you!!!!! you & i will be just fine 🌈✨⭐

Being a creator nowadays is so tiring. On one hand, I can see there is a problem with objectifying women and feminine presenting people, typically from cishet chud men. On the other hand, a feminine character is instantly classified as “gooner bait” because they’re shapely or have… boobs.
