The amount of times I have to remind pro-Ai that I am a tech. I went to school for programming, I worked with datasets, and definitely know how this works.
If myself and nearly all white hats, and ethical programmers are saying Ai/Ml is wrong.
Maybe listen. twitter.com/JonLamArt/stat…

Ai has already gotten artists fired.
Ai is replacing begging lvl jobs in the industry making it so artists cant enter without being pro lvl already.
I see Ai on book covers, music videos, and indie games everywhere.
This is about not paying for art, when you can just steal it. twitter.com/theChrisDo/sta…
53
Should I tell them?
- that artists are one of the lowest paying jobs and Ai managers were millionaire hedge fund managers just exploiting artists like many large companies exploiting workers?
Ai will never make you rich, but it will make millionaires -billionaires

The founder of stable diffusion is angry other are copying the free source code and he can’t monopolize it. Saying “Quality not Quantity”, yet again admitting to only wanting to use current art, not public domain, and ending with him admitting he is willing to go behind firewalls
55
The museums should be held accountable, when contacted they didn’t care it was Ai. Stop funding to art museums if they are going to replace art with Ai/ML
56
Grimes is advocating and making sure her name and team to have 100% copyright of GrimesAI to make money, still she pushes “Artwork should be free and no-copyright”.
We need to stand together with other creatives, not push one down for personal gain.
57
This isn’t something I want to talk about, but I haven’t seen anyone talk on this. The fashion company Moncler used Ai/Ml for their new brand, but by doing so put out POC models out of work.
We all knew this was going to keep getting worse and worse, but this is making ..

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

I wish artists had lawyers and agency like this. We need to look into some kind of union twitter.com/9to5mac/status…

It’s ironic that many want to charge you for their games made with Ai/ML art theft, but believe all the labor and materials for the game should be free.
Because their work is “hard work”, but an artist work is “democratization”, and artist love drawing anyway.
Hypocritical? twitter.com/PK_SRMT/status…

Answer me then, Emad. You’ve put thousands of people out of work. You claim to not want to replace humans however I lost a contract today with a publisher bc they started using a Stable Diffusion Model based on my art. How are you going to address this? My Art isn’t fair use. twitter.com/EMostaque/stat…

The people that say “Learn how to use Al/Ml or you will be replaced”
Like..
“Hot anime wifu, big tats, blonde, hyper detailed, in the style of ArtStation trending”
K done. I’ve learned Ai.
Stop talking about typing into a program like you’re learning coding.

“If you take away Ai/Ml then my dreams of being an artist are also being taken away”
I hate to break it to you but artists work because we can’t all live our dreams of animating or drawing our own stories. This is just life. We all have passion projects.
65
Anyone saying AI/ML is a “tool” is so stupid. No it’s not in anyway. Not only is it a finished piece it’s just stealing from other artists.
A “tool” is using built in perspective grids, a “tool” is using a textured brush.
A tool is to help, not overriding the process
66
I really wish all beginning artists knew not to do art competitions for big IP.
I’ll tell you my learning experience.
1/2) When I was a bit younger I did an art contest for a big IP and drew these for them. I didn’t win, but they still used the artwork. They made around 10k..
67
When I said the market will be over saturated with Ai this is exactly what I meant.
This only drives the want and costs up of actual writers/artists, and when you get blacklisted as someone that’s ruined your reputation by uses Ai it’s hard to come back from twitter.com/clarkesworld/s…
68
Is it weird that we are a culture that is overlooking the fact this AI could not exist without our work?
You're not an AI Artist, you are a theif using a machine to steal art.
I really don't care about personal use, but this is pushing out artists, in replacement for thievery.
69
Grimes wants to eradicate copyright but keep 50% of profits made from her voice in AI? lol NO that’s not how this works.
If you don’t have ownership of your voice no one owes you anything twitter.com/Grimezsz/statu…

I very much find it distasteful and vile when the Ai debate continues to use disability as a shield for the well-being of them.
Stop.
Stop using other people as a shield. They cannot even name ANY disability that inhibits art but allows typing. They try to switch topics.
71
My real advice for just basic protecting yourself is to take down your art and re-upload with all the art being Glazed. That is the first thing I would do.
The new version is out.
Next I would find my local rep and email about the privacy and data laundering in AI.
72
This is pretty incredible from Tapas to send this message right after the copyright office rejected copyright of AI comics.
AI is not allowed on Tapas publishing anymore.
Amazing news!
73
Saying AI/ML is not theft is them trying to normalize it. We should not let this get normalized
74
The argument that photoshop is “just a tool like Ai”, is fundamentally wrong. Photoshop requires a direct skill of learning anatomy, color theory, composition, and knowing how to draw. Tim at Epic games doesn’t even know what the artists there do.
75
If you are a starting artist don’t stop drawing and don’t give up.
Please note my tweets are not intended for starting artist sometimes and sometimes directed at working artists.
I’ve seen way to many people working in art giving advice on imitative AI and …
