AI Confusion.

I have had MULTIPLE people now either ask how to make AI images or AI this or AI that. I use Blender and 3D programs to sculpt/craft/texture/rig and everything in between. 99.99% of the work is good old fashioned 3D work.

I have used AI in the past mainly for some colour theory of what lighting would look good in this scene. But all the models I use are in fact 3D models!

Having to clear this seems to be more the norm now, I have had to say multiple times of different forums and here in messages.

I am sorry that certain individuals think that your art is AI. It is the sign of the times. Where talent, imagination and composition. Come together to produce a wonderful image. Must have been done by AI.

That's why you're as popular as you are, you're an artist! AI isn't art, it's a delivery method for a few sentences of text. Keep being you, doing what you do best! 馃憣

AI is very useful and isn't going anywhere fast, its a debate of how much work = Art. Remember the modern art fiasco with the banana taped to the wall worth millions. So if modern art CAN exist as art then sadly AI will jump down that hole too.

I also collect anime cards mainly one piece ccg, and some card printing companies use Ai to generate their card images and it's so obvious. Because the characters face doesn't look anything close to the actual anime characters face. I refuse to buy those, because they're flooding the market with it. Just to make a buck and under-selling the high-end/quality cards

thing is business wise it makes sense, and I totally get it why a business would. but it removes the point of art to be enjoyed by the creator in making it as well as the people who view it. I could very easily turn this channel into a bloated AI channel and do 30 mins work a week, but I refuse.

I use both 3d and Ai as a hobbyist/personal. And it easily to tell the difference for me at least. There's a tell if you look close enough to Ai generated images

I guess, accusing everyone of using AI is the new accusing every musician to use autotune in music videos. The reality is, the vast majority of people is rather dumb and uneducated and on the internet you can't recognize that before you see what they write. So just get over it. Everybody, who knows a little bit about AI images, sees cleary your art is no AI at all. And even AI generators aren't that cheap as 100 images/3 bucks. Maybe once they will be, but not in near future.

The world is AI driven now, its the latest new thing and not peoples fault in thinking its a 3 second task. but when your work can take 10 hours to make is thrown out as 2 minute AI work it hurts.

its insane to think people think that your work is AI. I usually see witch hunts from people falsely accusing everyone under the sun of using AI even tho a vast majority of AI is easily identifiable (at least to me, although i do use AI for my personal hobby/use)..... I guess its not that bad since they are just asking and not using it as a shaming thing

for the moment its easy to spot, in the words of Philip Defranco, AI is the worst its every going to be right now. it will rapidly improve.

I on the other hand, generate 3D AI Elsa/Anna/whoever stuff all the time! Hit me up for commissions 馃槑 Haha. Forreal, it's strange people don't realize your work isn't AI. It kind of shows how little people understand AI generated imagery. You've been making this level of stuff since before AI was able to generate this kind of thing.

Did you just put the not ai generated on your page because of that. Plus I know the diff between ai and 3d. Since I watch a shit load of it

People are expecting 100 images for $3 commission fee. That is not what I provide and more people are asking this question along with other AI nonsense. Well done for knowing the difference.
