why, WHY, would you show off AI "art" on a MU* full of furries? people keep doing it, and frankly it's equivalent to going to a decent Chinese place, plopping down right next to where the staff are trying to eat, and eating ham and velveeta on Wonder Bread sandwiches you made at home.
@Tuftears Art always looks easier than it actually is, but then how does that also explain the "it's completely out of reach unless we use AI" sentiment? Maybe it's that we live in such a world of visuals that it's easy at some level to expect they're always going to be there somehow.
@Leucrotta I mean, it isn't that they think art is easy, but they feel like the *work* that goes into making art is unjustifiably expensive, the same vein that leads to "information just wants to be free" piracy. As you say, we are surrounded by visuals so there is a feeling everyone needs to be able to express their inner thoughts visually.
@Leucrotta I really do wonder, it feels like those without creative ability just view it in a whole different way from those with sometimes. They don't get how much work goes into making art, or how AIs are just remixing existing art, stealing artists' work.
