I made this conceptually weak meme about the effects of AI on creative industries.

It’s conceptually weak because, even if artists are well paid, their creative labour is still appropriated.

My vague point here is that AI makes this exchange more exploitative.

An attempt at some character #art for Seurimas from Aetolia. I took a tip from a YouTube video for this and gathered up a handful of AI-generated images for references. I think this worked out well enough, but Shutterstock's AI generator is less effective than others I've tried. Perhaps, it's a consequence of them using a narrower set for training their model, only pulling from images they have licenses to. Still, #PayTheArtist

Me, right now…
