I was playing around with Craiyon earlier, and I am now firmly of the belief that AI generated art is the Devils work.

A Tech Worker Is Selling A Children's Book He Made Using AI. Professional Illustrators Are Pissed.

Also, although I think a lot of these AI things ARE shit, mainly because they're gigantic copyright theft machines, the idea that in the entire world of utterly unethical publishing ventures this guy's shite is actually worth getting irate about seems pretty stupid.

(i haven't read the article)

[dng]

before i deleted my twitter/instagram/everything else, i was actually thinking of giving all my book scripts away for free to anyone who wanted to illustrate them, but they'd all just end up like this wouldn't they, so what's the point?

[dng]

i'm still thinking about it

[dng]

basically i've resigned myself to never actually having a career as a children's writer

[dng]

or any sort of writer really

[dng]

maybe i should learn to draw

[dng]

or discover how to resurrect minkee and cloudfilter and have them do my bidding forever

[Pual]

If this is the horrific things thread, my friend just texted me to tell me he was in A&E because his cat had scratched his eyeball

[dng]

Aargh

[dng]

I hope he's okay

[blombluss]

Seconded! Ouch!

[blombluss]

or any sort of writer really

Me too!

I was thinking of approaching publishers with my idea of reworking old comic strips now in the public domain, and having the characters talk about British telly shows in a, hopefully, amusing/daft way, but I haven't got the motivation or 'go' in me, anymore.

Ooh, interesting!

Did you just type 'spiders are wonderful childrens book'into DALL-E, and it coughed up that image, then?

[dng]

I think so. something like that anyway.

[dng]

These were the other ones it spat out in my ten minutes of playing around with it before getting bored several months ago. i'm not sure why it decided spiders were horses at some point

[vom]

HORSE

[blombluss]

Hose has got quite a golden... er... hose on him, hasn't he?

[richschnauzer]

Trust you to notice

[CandyDarling]

For as long as AI drawings look like insane nightmares, then illustrators are safe.
