Normally I wouldn't bother making a post like this but it came to my attention yesterday via a twitter thread that tumblr user fridaypls is using AI elements in their fanart. Now, if they were doing this because they didn't feel entirely confident in their artistic ability, and they were just doing this for fanart they posted online, then I'd shrug my shoulders and go "eh, whatever"

However, I then found out that fridaypls is selling this fanart and even making posts like "buy my Gale print and get Tim Downie to sign it" and I just can't sit idly by whilst someone makes profit off AI 'art' and there are so many other artists (myself included) trying to make a living off our own art.

The tweet thread about the use of AI by fridaypls can be viewed here and here but I'll also copy and paste some of the examples under a cut line in this post.

So far on twitter, fridaypls got wind of the thread going around about them and they deactivated their account rather than take accountability. I'm probably going to be blocked by them for making this post, but I encourage you to reblog this and spread the word and please, PLEASE don't buy artwork from someone using AI generated images. There are so many other hardworking artists out there making amazing fanart and merch that you can give your money to instead.

Examples from twitter:

#kind of belated in reblogging this because they seem to have deleted their art and renders since op posted this #but it's still pretty useful to know some tells for ai use in art outlined here and in the notes #kind of sad how hard it can be to tell when you're just idly scrolling and not scrutinizing the details of a given piece now #ref #i saw some of their posts got notes in the thousands but i didn't realize they were selling prints... #:(

Love playing a wild magic sorcerer and romancing Gale. They're both annoying.

oh to live in a world where astarion had made it all the way through development as a tiefling

#the way his hair curls around these horns just a little bit is unreasonably endearing tbh #astarion ancunin #astarion #btw i hope it’s ok that i tagged you astarionposting if you see this! your presets are great and i want to link back to you #without tumblr putting a hit out on me for a regular hyperlink #bg3 astarion #astarion bg3 #bg3 #baldur’s gate 3 #etc etc so on and so forth #my screenies #i do still think it's much funnier that he's so obviously vampiric as an elf and you're just not allowed to confront him about it though #like it's a decorum thing. you don't just ask strangers what's up with the fangs and the bite marks and the fixation on raw meat.
