A comic I started making a few months ago when I first started drafting out The Rehabilitation of Death fic universe/AU.

This is when I was still trying to figure out how I wanted to draw the characters (and I still dont know lmao) so it looks like how I used to draw them closer to the in-game style/animal crossing-ish. I'm not sure if I'll keep this dialogue since this comic is so old, but since the scene is coming up I thought I might as well post it

Anyway....something something emotions controlling powers

Also, bonus doots

Happy Halloween!

No pumpkins, just Shamura🤫✨

Wow, look what a young moth has started to be interested in me! Well, okay, okay, there will be an answer for you. The whole prairie! She is my soul and an outlet in this little world

True, there's nothing in the secret forest either * hmmmmm* snort but only because of this place and a couple more, where my little kids are swarming

G: But why prairie? It's simple, baby, there is something that is not in other places: eternal sun, dryness and climate for breeding beautiful winged creatures

There’s a protest going on against AI art over on artstation, so I feel like now is the time for me to make a statement on this issue! 

I wholeheartedly support the ongoing protest against AI art. Why? Because my artwork is included in the datasets used to train these image generators without my consent. I get zero compensation for the use of my art, even though these image generators cost money to use, and are a commercial product. 

Musicians are not being treated the same way. Stability has a music generator that only uses royalty free music in their dataset. Their words: “Because diffusion models are prone to memorization and overfitting, releasing a model trained on copyrighted data could potentially result in legal issues.” Why is the work of visual artists being treated differently?

Many have compared image generators to human artists seeking out inspiration. Those two are not the same. My art is literally being fed into these generators through the datasets, and spat back out of a program that has no inherent sense of what is respectful to artists. As long as my art is literally integrated into the system used to create the images, it is commercial use of my art without my consent.

Until there is an ethically sourced database that compensates artists for the use of their images, I am against AI art. I also think platforms should do everything they can to prevent scraping of their content for these databases. 

Artists, speak out against this predatory practice! Our art should not be exploited without our consent, and we deserve to be compensated when our art is exploited for commercial use. 

I LOVE YOUR HEKET KANRNBABANWRNSBDBSVVSS!!!!
