My thoughts on AI
a year ago
General
I've been seeing people as of late say 'i wont take commissions if you send me an ai generated refence'
I get AI is being used to take peoples job, and a lot of bad people are using to make money. I condemn those people.
This is how I see AI:
I have a really nice kitchen knife. I use it to cut my meat when I make pork chops.
Some one else has the same kind of kitchen knife and they use it to stab someone.
If you use it as a tool to convay an Idea you want done by a real artist. You making pork chops. You selling AI 'art' or editing AI images into what you want, your stabbing someone.
To be clear, it's okay to have your opinions on AI. But to me, AI is only as bad as the person using it. And it beong used in refrance with other forms of reference is a-okay with me.
Whether you agree or not, I am open to it being used as a reference to create something or have something created~
Edit to clarify (and fix spelling stuffs):
Using AI generators contributes to it. Almost all people who make AI profit off of its knowing it's misuse, and I highly recommend not using AI generators, given the people who make them. But I can't stop people from using it, nor can I tell everyone why it's bad to use. Ultimately I encourage using different references but I am okay with taking them and encouraging better usage of resource finding.

To me its just another refrence image, and arguable you can create people who disrespect artist and stick to AI of you demonnize every aspect of it. Using for theory crafting it great imo. Especially if you cant properly communicate what you want!
Alas, its a charged that i hope appropriate measures will be made to keep ot as a tool, and not a way to make money. Until this I understand peoples hesitation of letting it in in any regaurd. I
