Oh hello. You must be wondering where my promised uploads are after I said I was going to do so. Have I gotten lazy? No I actually have a few images queued up for uploading but that was more or less put on hold due to a massive issue on this site that probably doesn’t need any introduction here.
The AI generated art and the flood of it. I’m in protest of letting this problem run rampant. How AI art is generated in the first place is through stealing artwork. You have to take art and inject it into the generator for it to work. It’s blatant art theft. No questions about it.
I was even hoping that the moderation on the website would do something about this but after discussing with one of the moderators it’s clear to me that the reason for the lack of action is because it forces them to work. Forces them actually weed out the problems and get their hands dirty. That may sound harsh but that was the attitude and in summary the response I got. “Because the art is going to get harder to find in the future.” What about the now? The problem in front of us?
Now I’ve no prior issues with the moderation team. In fact quite the opposite as they’ve been rather helpful and informative. But this one problem and their solution to “lessen the amount of flooding” instead of an active stance against AI art is such a baffling move on their end that I cannot in any right mind get behind it.
I’ve had a zip folder of my art prepared in advance to upload more art onto the site but I actively refuse to upload unless something is done about this. That’s my stance on everything. I’m not going to let this issue slide and I’m not at all ok with the lack of action.
