By choosing to use AI art, AI writing, AI anything in your product, you are sending this signal to me: "I have zero confidence in my ability to try hard and create anything, so I would rather steal the work of others and put my name on it."

Your AI works have no soul, and show no grit.

Gosh I wish! Tho I just closed my comms and I’ve never had a client yet lol

Times are rough, and its especially going to be challenging for minorities.

But its important to remember to stand strong and stand together! We cannot let hate and censorship divide us!

Continue supporting the arts however you can!

And if you are willing and able, don't be afraid to drop a little something in their tip jar (if they have one), buy their work either for yourself or as a gift.

You don't have to be rich to support the arts, you do what you can. As stated above, simply sharing is incredibly appreciated! 🧵

By far the easiest way to support is by simply sharing their work. Repost their stuff (works, announcements, tip jar, links, etc.), mention them to your friends and family.

Encourage people to seek out independent creators! And this applies to all types! Not just art, writing, and animation. 🧵

All because profits come first for them, not making authentic stories, as much as they claim and promise to their audience and creators.

My heart goes out to creatives out there who get their stories gutted like this and are unable to do anything about it. 🧵

OMG 10K, congrats!

My name is Felipe, I'm an artist from Chile dedicated to fantasy and horror, and also some plein air painting here and there.
