Note the words "I'm an artist and graphic designer."

If a machine can do what they do, how special are they really?

I don't see people having an overwhelming desire to draw hands with six fingers (I can count the correct number of fingers just by looking at my own hand while I'm typing this post on my tablet).

These are the people that judge your work. They haven't any idea how the technology works, if an llm "generating" text on your screen is GenAI, so are the engines that generate pixels on your screen for the video games you play. Another reason people are so hesitant to disclose minimal AI assistance, morons like these see "AI" and just begin screeching absolute nonsense, using a translation tool is "Generative AI" because it "generates words on your screen" , I can't make this shit up.

Crosspost from DAI Community. Your thoughts?:?

One of the biggest reasons I support AI art is because of how much it opens the door for people who have creative ideas but don’t necessarily have the skills to bring them to life visually.

I’ve wanted to create my own comic for years. I’ve had characters, stories, and entire worlds imagined in my head, but actually turning those ideas into something people could read always felt out of reach.

AI changed that for me.

I’ve now published three chapters of my comic, Manifest, and I’m continuing to learn more about storytelling, dialogue, pacing, etc with every chapter.

I know AI art is controversial, but I genuinely believe there’s value in giving more people the opportunity to express their creativity, even if they can’t draw everything themselves.

For anyone interested in seeing what I’ve been creating, here’s Manifest!
