A person working in the science field calling Ml “magic” yet recognizing it’s stealing from artist and still publishing a book with it on a cover.
I wish I could make this up.
127
Every single time a singer or authors is asked if they would be okay with their worked used in Ai generations they ignore the question or block the once’s asking it, all the while the ones using Ai image gens ask artists to
“take it on the chin”
128
Alright let’s play this little game of “democratization”
What’s stopping us from just pirating your books? You what? Worked hard writing it? Ha. I don’t believe in copyright.
That song? That game? Ha, I don’t believe in “hard work”, it’s actually gatekeeping.
129
Generative Ai will now be referred to as Imitation Ai.
130
If you thought any of these were real photographs you need to get off Facebook, and listen to the generation that grew up with technology. Each of these had millions of ppl believing they were real.
If you cant tell with these imagine how much worse it’s going to get
131
This is midjourneys and stables licenses.
This is also why some artists were banned from MJ for creating perfect replicas of Mickey Mouse.
Do either of these sound ethical or even proper business licenses? Or does this sound like a get rich quick scheme?
132
Patreon is taking a survey that will influence how their platform views its artists/writers in the future. I think its important for us to have places safe for artists. Coms have the survey
133
We have been saying for months that AI should not have used our artwork. We have said AI under law even if a "derivative" cannot compete in the same market.
These have been hurting many by exploiting artists to replace them within their own field by using their art. twitter.com/JonLamArt/stat…
134
People running warm up sketches thro Ai and saying it looks better than the OG, have no clue what a warm up is.
It’s to tests values, colors, and get your muscle memory active. It’s not for perfection.
135
Remember authors that you need to fit into a narrowly defined trope based on years of popular books written by the ones allowed to write books.
Perfect, this is exactly what originality needed, ML rating your books! twitter.com/JackHarbon/sta…
136
Ai ppl want to sue artists -the ones they are stealing artwork from
(I can’t even make this up)
I’m at the point where I think art should be behind paywalls
#SupportHumanArtists #noaiart
137
I have 10 covers and novel art to finish by next months end, I cannot possibly work harder, faster for cheaper. I work thro weekends, and long into the night, and volunteer to advocate for ethical Ai.
When Ai is stealing that hard work we do for free and selling it back to you twitter.com/meganroseruiz/…

I'm not the first one to say industry people did use and experiment AI when it came out.
It was marketed to us and artists were paid to use it. I certainly experimented with it, I even signed up for the beta.
But it takes a bigger person to admit they were wrong about something
139
This is the second company I've seen thats marketing itself as an i2i AI gen on copyrighted art and photography. By just running any image thro they will gen it slightly different
This will not save you in court. I hope every company using these gets sued into oblivion

Potus, please look into image generation programs that are destroying peoples lives, taking jobs, and creating an online environment that is dangerous for everyone.
These programs can generate some pretty serious matters including children that should not be taken lightly. twitter.com/POTUS/status/1…
141
Artists are at a catch 22. We should have guilds speaking on our behalf like authors and musicians have, but we don’t. Artists are often independent and have to speak out for ourselves. But speaking out constantly about harms of ML is draining and can have mental exhaustion.
142
“Mindless bigots”
Says the man whom is actively fighting to exploit artists
So tired of being told “artists can benefit from our own exploitation, free labor, and pain”
Please unsubscribe from this man’s YouTube if you haven’t already

Exactly, pro artists using imitative Ai to sell out other artists are not realizing this Ai is not meant to keep them, they are replaceable and their messages are reading clear to the companies seeing their posts.
AI is stealing from you, to replace you. twitter.com/JonLamArt/stat…
144
Why when so many artist's try to tell others that this is theft and to not market it, give supporting evidence, ask nicely, and they say "Not-ah"
How is exploitation of a working class cute? How is this cute to quote your prompt with the names of people you are stealing from?
145
I’m so tired rn. “We can explain away the exploitation and cultural biases because….” Because you like free labor.
No such thing as see we started with this sketch and made it into this: “so it’s not unethical” Ai right now is unethical. Please hire an artist twitter.com/bradfordlitfes…
146
Can we talk about Pinterest and how it made way for Ai/Ml? This is copyrighting work by Krabat and they state “do not use my work”, authors like this see it on Pinterest and use it in ads for their book all the time.
Bc “I found it on Pinterest” carefully cropping the name out
147
I’ve personally gotten many emails from artists thinking of stopping drawing to thoughts of unaliving. This is more serious than the media let’s on.
Many of the users are older and do not understand how it’s hurting artists and think “capitalisticly” this is an easy $ for them. twitter.com/tprstly/status…
148
Can I show you sometime that might scare you?
This is the thought process behind the theft AI movement
They ACTUALLY believe they are doing gods work. They BELIEVE they are creating a "new world" where everything is free
However everyone using AI right now is doing do for profit
149
What will happen is ethical business and artists will be pushed down from those using imitative Ai. They will have the mass production advantage, bc that is what this is about: marketing with (exploitation practices).
Which isn't new, but it will force others (even if they do..

At the very beginning of AI/ML I said the one art job that will NEVER be affected is concept artist. If you havent worked as one, you will never truly know how much work actually goes into one design. twitter.com/JoelCHoltzman/…
