AI art and AA

“I dont care”

Proceeds to angrily rant and insult everyone who disagrees on alts.

I dunno, I’ve not associated with anything “bad” in a long time, even changing usernames etc, so how it would link to me these days is beyond me. Unless you know my old username, which is fine. But it’d take quite the dig to find anything and that’s so odd people would (and do) do that.

I got over all that BS stalking years ago and I do wish people would grow up and do the same.

Just one: venture capitalist with equal points specced in nepotism and oligarchy.

In case ya didn’t already know,

…overlap because of ideological praise of AI art replacing “degenerate art” forced on society by Them, thus saving Western Man and All that He Built.

While Vaxir was probably a bit of a lolcow in the past, these forum/game has-beens are like the same type of people who go on Kiwi Farms and still try and bash an irrelevant person because idk gamer rage or something

Kinda sad

true, most excited i’ve ever seen them be about anything visual arts-related is when they found a way to generate a barefoot anime tradwife which gives credence to my theory that their endgame is constructing a robot woman that won’t pepper spray them on approach

I literally only had to search your character name “Vaxir” for things to start showing up. Within a minute I had found two images of an OC of yours dressed up in a very reminiscent Hugo Boss outfit, armband clearly visible and all. If you don’t want to reach out to the artist who made the things to take them down you could always report the content anonymously I suppose?

It’s good that you’re trying to move on but when a literal nobody like myself can find stuff within seconds there’s something away with the fae there.
I know fine well that the artist in question is more responsible for a lot of the stuff that happened in your old guild as well, you simply took the brunt of it being the guild leader and public face.

Glad we’re on the same page.

First time I heard about stuff, it was already old news apparantly.

And I first heard about things in Cata.

Like looking in a mirror, hello me.

If it’s not already painfully obvious, AI art is being pushed heavily by corporations and capitalists because it cuts out a human component and thus makes it easy to make more profit. Why bother paying artists when you can just steal their work and hide behind your corporate lawyers?

This is the bad use of AI, and this is why AI is being pushed hard across sectors. AI for personal use, such as on a hobbyist roleplay website like the Argent Archives where no profiteering is involved and simply a means to better visualise your character when you don’t have the material means to support an artist outright?
Yeah that’s fine.

because it’s not working very well

because capitalism is fun until you realise that the biggest companies nowadays happen to be media-focused and have made copyright hell for those that want to steal media for a profit, and all it’s going to take for them to get a boot pushing down on their throat is for disney or nintendo to catch a single whiff of it

the lawsuit is one billion$ worth already and it’s only got deviantart involved

Well, lets hope big money and big business keep losing.

do you have an actual economic ideology you subscribe to or do you just like being a contrarian online

I have consistently made Left-leaning points all the time.
People just like to find a bogeyman to latch onto and clutch pearls at.
I had to take a breather to recover when I was being labelled a “rightoid”, I am the furthest possible from that.

The absolute verbal diarrhea in this post makes me question why some people can post on these forums.

You’re not my type, don’t worry.

Because it’s a video game forum for a roleplaying server and i don’t think Blizzard ever envisioned these forums will be host to half the drama it has in the past nevermind people heatedly discussing the emergence and proliferation of AI in media, with pointless snipes.
