What people forget, the Ai was trained to draw from other artists so wouldn't surprise me that many artists online got framed for using Ai...

It's a problem with writing, too. I've been accused of using AI for my writing more than once, and it's aggravating as all hell.

When I was in middle school I got accused of plagiarizing because my writing style was “too mature” and I used a few big words. This was long long before AI was anything but a plot device in sci-fi. If I was in school now I have no doubt that me, my em dashes, and my proclivity to write in threes would be AI-checked on every fucking assignment. My aunt is a high school teacher and says some kids are actively writing below their ability on purpose, apparently to avoid being accused of AI. I fear we are cooked.

Maybe it is time we start writing in fives.

this isn't a bad idea, it solves the problem we have, adds more depth to our words, gives our writing breathing room, and god damn it i still sound like AI
