@sylvia_ritter what the fuuuuuuck. How is it possible to be so lacking in self-awareness. @_@
@jacel Well, it is shocking how AI split us in two groups. Really sad to witness this. Sure we already know there is the threat they will take jobs but they will also break long lasting friendships.
@sylvia_ritter Translation : "could you help me to erase your kind from the earth ?"
I don't think even severely drunk artists would answer positively to this...
@Gynux I really hope so. I wish there would be more artists unions and basic income.
@sylvia_ritter yep, directly to the trash. Something I receive often.
@davidrevoy Terrible to hear. 😒, I hope no artist is forced to go this route. We need basic income.
@sylvia_ritter @davidrevoy Timelapses are often used as proof of actual human work, so it's no wonder the GenAI dweebs want the machines to simulate that process 💩
How about „I can help destroying your AI with my arm and a hammer if you need any help.”
@sylvia_ritter I can highly recommend gently sending them to http://hahahaha.no in your response <3
@flaki Aww, thank you for wonderful suggestion 💚.
@sylvia_ritter I got a similar email, asking me to do electronics.
I am evaluating if I can sue them. Because they
* scraped my personal information from the Web (GDPR violation)
* Mixed data from multiple sources (again GDPR violation)
* Scraped some of my Hardware repos that contain a no-AI license. And thus violates that license.
@cccpresser 😡 so sorry, you they are treating you this way. This is awful. We need stricter laws.
@sylvia_ritter say yes for 100e per hours, then do everything wrong to polute the model 😎
@krafting I wish I had the energy. Pollution needs lots of planning. I can always forward recommendations, though, if someone has a good plan.
@sylvia_ritter please do. but fuck up every step
@darkrat 🙂 I think others have to fuck them up. Artist are currently drained.
@sylvia_ritter Insulting! Go to hell, AI losers. 😡
I've had something similar for writing. 'How would you like us to pay you peanuts to replace your job and steal from you more effectively?' 🤢
@vicorva Yes, so true. It is so sad it has come to this. Got to stay strong!
@sylvia_ritter hm... might be a chance to poison the models...
@littlerao My energy level is pretty low since this genAI storm. Can I recommend you ;)? Although, they probably have a paragraph in their contract to avoid such scenarios.
@sylvia_ritter I mean... if I do it to the best to my ability, it's gonna be garbage, cause I totally suck at this kinda art. (Or I take months to half finish anything)
@littlerao Nah, I believe in you, you don't suck at art :). Hopefully, there will be a good way to poison it in the future.
@sylvia_ritter you've seen my art? abstract stuff with little detail I can do, when I want more detail or more realistic, I get lost in details and usually never finish
@littlerao I haven't, but abstract art is so wonderful and occasionally make some myself. That is how I started, too. An artwork is never finished. Details, yes, please. I am also obsessed with them. Then that is who we are and it is okay. The world needs people who love details. 💚
@sylvia_ritter this is the art I got on my fedi rn:

not much time went into details.
@littlerao How many artworks have you painted so far? I can see similarities in my early works. 😊 Sometime it helps to think in quantity than quality to break the ice, practice and just to have fun/turn your emotions into art. Lots of muscle memory can help. Playing around with gradients is fun, too, like in the first artwork you've linked here. Oh, and I wrote poems, too 😊 You have a creative soul!
@sylvia_ritter ig less than 2 hand full in total? altho painting/drawing isn't really my passion. I wanna produce music tho... struggle a lot. And quantity over quality is meh if I get stuck and give up at the same part over and over again (sound design)
@littlerao I see, well I tried a lot and finally stuck with digital art. I admire musicians 😊 I tried to create a track a few years ago, of course it was a mess :D. Struggle is part of the process, you are learning a lot and of course you can't see it in the moment. Many years have to pass until you realize that you got somewhat better. It is good to get feedback from other musicians, I've heard.

"Will you sell your soul to us AI company?"
Hell, No!
