>Popular 'pixel artist' who has insane form shading gets outed putting AI slop and other artist's work through PixaTool or some other method to pixelate it

>Another popular art account from Japan who used to actually work on their art has now endorsed AI and no longer posts OC but at least he admits it's AI I guess

I think the worst part is both of these examples used to legitimately do art but gave in to the 10 second generations that would take them 20 hours to make. This guy even made mockup WIPs to try and cover his tracks for fuck's sake.

Is it truly over? Sure this guy got outed, but how many are still hidden? Plus many people are posting 'idc still looks cool'.

OP what's you goal?
What do you want to achieve with those threads?
I don't care about AI art and AI prompters and I'm sure most anons here think the same.
So what's it? Art is cool and AI sucks so fuck off.

No one gives a shit. You draw because you enjoy drawing. If all you care is likes and social credit then use AI because you'll get better and faster output everytime and no one but bitter artists gives a shit

AI is cool, though. Especially now that Pony has enabled me to generate my fetish in 20 seconds instead of paying an artist $300 for it. It's only getting better.

You want the blackest of pills?
No one cares, they never did.

Humanity is going down the idiocracy timeline so no amount of effort, honesty, wit, skill, integrity or anything will ever be relevant again.
It's all about delivering content to the masses;
You are a content creator, and if you aren't, you're worthless.

People won't care if it's AI if they can jerk off to it and retards believe they're going to make money off of churning out AI slop.
Creativity will most absolutely die and no one will care because they're busy consuming or trying to make a buck.

In 2050 we will all be watching ai generated videos of ass cheeks jiggling, on a holoprojector while listening to podcasts of ecelebrities tweeting insults at each other and other content creators reacting live by either laughing or saying "Famzan!" "trased!" "brunge!" "steaming!" "they b uncanonical for cappin!", while being attached to a masturbation machine and having porn running directly into our brains through the neura link chip.
Well, at least the robussy in bio bots gave me a like on the picture i generated on my AIfon69

These gooners are literally cooked bro, their opinion literally does not matter and you cannot save them.
At least bugmen work to sustain their consumer “hobbies,” these dweebs are jacking off to AI generated hentai while they sit on an eviction notice.
Shame them not to save them, but to save those who are watching.

I always thought it was weird people fap to their own drawings, but doing it from generating prompts is even weirder to me. More power to you but I don't get how people actually feel anything when you know it's just been prompted.

It's kind of sad to say, but pretty much every AI shill out there is just trying their best to milk it since everything nowadays is about making content to capture your share of the profits as everything in life gets worse.

That's a shame, they actually seem to have some talent in pixel art. I'm guessing they're using AI to try and post more work?
Maybe they're the type that leans too heavily on references?

[Anonymous No.7140673]

The girl's face on the OP is one trillion percent AI, and if you spend 10 seconds on any /b/, /g/, /aco/, or /d/ or any other board that has an AI general, you would know this
The fucking thumbnail avatar is even a variation of the prompt, not having the same face/hair on the exact same angle/clothes
It's not about "normies caring", is about the blatant deception, it's the 15 years old 4chan/reddit meme

AI= bad sure, but I don't get why no one bats an eye when there's people selling stuff like picrel. A bunch of filtered, pixelated jpeg's vidiya screenshots with photoshop layer FX and calling it "muh" artwork.
"digital art" was a mistake.

I don't care if it's prompted, but I agree with you that I need someone else to prompt it. If I do it myself it loses some of the magic.

based brother. very happy to hear. 10 years ago I begin as a (predominatly) digital artist, but last year. I was done.
It really led to slop. I also started noticing all my favorite artists were trad.
Ai is just a symptom.

Wanna know what's the real blackest pill?

Nobody fucking cares about pictures. You can mass produce AI shit or paint a Last Supper 2 but the average watcher will not care and put your cool ideas on par with an ad he saw on YouTube.

It's all fucking meaningless. Its always been meaningless. Sharing art with non artists is a behavior born from a centuries old misunderstanding

As long as the career exists people will pursue it.
No one actually likes working day jobs, it's just cope. Many "hobbyists" would commit murder if it was guaranteed to get them an art job

[Anonymous No.7140953]

>>7140950
yea ... no. working 10-12 hour days with tight deadlines or a workflow that leans heavily on 3d tracing (concept creation) sounds like shit to most people.

Many hobbyists would probably like to be fine artists but that is like winning the lottery.

1. No one cares about art but artists
2. The artists that turn to AI never enjoyed the creative part of drawing in the first place.
2.1. That, and/or they value numbers in a website more than being truly authentic and creating something by themselves
3. A.I. art will always be perceived by non-artists as more impressive than art done by a lot of artists because A.I produces professional looking finished pieces, even if it has flaws like characters with weird fingers.
3.1. Only artists are anal about said flaws. Non-artists just see "pretty thing" for 3 or 4 seconds, tap the like icon, and move on
4. Given the ease and speed with which A.I generates art, it is obvious that corporations will use A.I to generate images for their content instead of paying an artist and waiting for the art to be done. AI will be used whenever it's viable to do so.
No one will even consider the hassle of dealing with an artist when they can easily get something very close to what they want fast, for free, and "on their own".

TL;DR: If you don't ENJOY drawing, quit.

Nice delusion peejeet, even normies are starting to point out slop with ease now and are already associating it with low effort ads & scams. If anything the "high quality trending on artstation" style will go out of fashion much like the pulp art of the 60s. Oversaturation of one thing makes people crave something different. Art always has and always will evolve with trends of the era.
