If you've followed my art you'll know that I'm a hard-working non-earning artist and spend months on each artwork and if you've seen my streams in the past you'll know I never use AI. Whereas AI is virtually meritless and takes seconds to generate, often even relying on other people's work without compensation.
I also provide project files on my Patreon and there are even some past WIP GIF/screenshots I have on Telegram that I have sent to friends during my artistic process, to which I can easily forward. I have always evidence of the artwork I make, and I don't like the takedown-first approach that FA has recently taken.
I am aware that this person is very jealous of artistic skill and rapid growth as an artist judging from previous conversation with their sock-puppet accounts on social media including DeviantArt. I do not appreciate this level of harassment or the approach to deprecate hard-working artists. The person attacking me is pro-AI and uses AI themselves, and is abusing "anti-AI" measures to attach non-AI artists. They have also rallied a small group of people against me on a Discord server.
They also vote-spammed AI detectors into falsely detecting my work as AI. This piece did not flag as "AI" before this person attacked my art and have exploited the voting system of the detector. As you can see from the screenshots, my art is entirely made by me and all my artwork is created in Clip Studio Paint at much higher detail and resolutions than AI is capable of, using transparent, layered techniques that AI is also incapable of. It's a shame that websites like https://www.aiornot.com/ have an abusable vote system, hopefully this can be fixed in time. Which is a shame as I had promoted the site myself, but that's their intention... To make artists suffer too because we use these tools against the AI plagiarists
Art and the effort is a cathartic expression to me, and having control over my art is something that AI cannot provide, I would never steal from people's art. I can't be doing with this right now, my health is very poor and one of my parents is dying. I wish these bullies would find someone else to troll instead of a disabled trans person like me.
Before accusing people, I insist people at least ask for proof of authorship first, even if for some styles (e.g. one-layer painting) it's not always viable unless you record the process extraneously. I hope the furry community as a whole can become more aware of this issues and protect the creative community's contributors as a whole. I've been bullied all my life for being disabled, trans and autistic and furry up until now has been a place of safety for me. People trying to ruin this should be punished for the bullies and thieves they are.
If you were falsely lead to think I used AI, now you have access to the evidence and I will accept any apologies. Thank you for reading.
Yeah, especially when FA taking a "shoot first. trial later" approach over accusations :/ All it does is make me feel unsafe as a slow/detail-oriented artist, I don't know what the best site is for me right now if any.
