It's my birthday and also the last post I will make here for a while. This site has truly become a nightmare and unless things change I wouldn't wanna be here anyway. Support me and my art elsewhere:

A d&d party commission I finished a while ago.~ I don't usually draw this many characters in one commission but I have a very soft spot for anthropomorphic characters. ๐ฅฐ #dndart
Glad you asked!
1) LLMs are created by scraping all the art and writing off the internet without creatorโs compensation or consent, allowing companies to make billions of stolen labor
2) This tech allows companies to then fire the very employees whose work they stole. Itโs like taking your blood and using it to power your robot replacement
3) The resulting auto-generated plagiarism slurry can be extremely realistic, allowing companies, governments, scammers etc to create an infinite deluge of propaganda, fake evidence, scams, revenge porn, and addictive meaningless slop flooding our eyes from cradle to grave, a kind of reality-obliterating internet pollution at a scale beyond human comprehension.
4) Thatโs not even counting the massive electricity drain of the server farms that are gobbling up land and the impending economic crash when the so called โabundanceโ promised by Silicon Valley vultures never meets their impossible promises.
LLMs are to societal trust what toxic runoff is to drinking water. And just like the pollution that comes from Exxon Mobile, this disaster is only possible when the government abdicates its regulatory responsibility because itโs been bought off by the CEOs responsible
TLDR:
PROS: You can make Judy Hopps make out with Martin Luther King
CONS: Mass unemployment, the death of reality, a permanent underclass addicted to a digital meth slot machine
I hate the excuse of โefficientโ every time genAI comes up in the topic of art making. Efficient in the making of art is keybinds, lasso tools, textured brushes, etc. Efficient in the making of art is NOT partaking in the exploitation and thievery of your fellow artists
