-feel comfortable handling them. So me AND my dad ended up in full clown garb and face paint and were filmed instead. We weren't even named in the credits lmaoooo

When I was 19/20 I (somewhat accidentally) ended up on national TV dressed as a clown.

tell me your stupidest life subplot

[beth🌱 @inkshroom_]

I worked as an animal educator with my father, and we were hired to work on the set of a competition style kids TV show. The animals (a tarantula, milipede and giant snail in this case) were to be shown by the clown host to contestants, BUT the person playing the clown didn't-

If you can't create your own data...you generate absolute slop.

AI is photobashing without any skill involved. Every bit of an output like the one below has been taken from something stolen from someone else. 'Prompts' are essentially long-winded browser searches using whatever AI program as a catalyst. Shame.

[Max ✦ @MaxVOAO]

Everyone says “AI art is so easy, anyone can do it.”

They’ve clearly never spent hours crafting perfect prompts, iterating endlessly, and curating masterpieces just to create jaw-dropping visuals, instead of the lazy slop flooding your feed.

Respect the real creators. 🔥🎨

Adding: a program cannot 'create' a new image. Again, all elements of this have been stolen from someone with skill. A program running on 0 data stolen results in an output of random coloured pixels.

@Senrei_ Thank you! ❤️ glad to be back!

[beth🌱 @inkshroom_]

I know it's been a while since I was active, but I'm back on my bullshit and will hopefully be posting more art in 2026. I hope you've all had a good year!

@catslank I actually really like procreate, but I find that moving images and resizing them absolutely destroys the quality, even if they were made at a high DPI. Just rotating something can make it go blurry, so often I have to do post-processing on my PC. SAI didn't do this!

@katriaraden Oh my god.....nightmare fuel. Some people just want to wring you dry!!!! employing someone does not mean they're your servant is a lesson many could do with learning I think.
