These have been difficult times since the appearance of the famous “AI” in our lives. Thousands of jobs are on the brink of collapse and unfortunately there is no defense for the working class. The sector that has hurt me the most has been the famous “art” created by this abominable tool. I may be old-fashioned, but I will never accept that type of content. Trying to replace something as valuable and unique as art seems to me, as I have said before, a complete abomination. We can automate stuff; we can use it to do repetitive work and work that is dangerous for humans, but using it to try to supplant the human soul—I think there is no forgiveness for that.
From “writing” books or stories, to trying to “compose” music, to “drawing” art and even “create” animations, it has been something that has really plunged me into a very deep sadness since last year. Fortunately I still work and I love my job, but my desire to create new content with the amount of horrible things that have happened in recent years has been waning. Just these days, following the news about this sector, I discovered Nightshade and Glaze. I’m going to apply this tool to my art while I can, since it is not fair that a machine feeds on artists’ souls for just a few businessmen hungry for money, destroying what little remains of humanity today.
Also, I really appreciate my clients who still believe in real art and I’m grateful I still have work and I really enjoy doing it. But I’m so sad for new artists who maybe will not be capable of having an opportunity because people prefer using a machine instead of real human art.
Anyway, that’s why I think this idea came to my mind. I will start applying Nightshade and Glaze to my work. I think as artists we need to defend our art and our way of living. It’s incredible that every day everything becomes more complicated and more damaging for the good of a few pockets.
And I know that I am just another number in this society, one more human, but hey, if I can do nothing more than contribute a small grain of sand to poisoning this tool of evil, I am going to do it.
Time-lapse
Also, I exported the time-lapse on ClipStudioPaint. I haven’t done any modifications; I want to keep all the details so you can see how my creative process works. Starting to create and modifying in the process, deciding each line, colors, and additions—that’s the magic of human art.
