Yesterday was a good day for mail!

Not only did I get my Pokemon Center order of a good boy with the free worlds promo card with the pikachu and mew, BUT I GOT A SURPRISE OF SOMETHING IVE BEEN WAITING FORRRRR!!!

MY LEGENDS ARCEUS BEANIES CAME IN IM SO HAPPY AAAAAA!!!! Thanks to that I named my Mabostiff Toque XD

Big shoutout to @cecilioque for making these hats in the first place, you always manage to make such banger attire and items for folks in the PLA fandom and pokemon! I got my dimaond clan and pearl clan sweaters and now the beanies to go with them!! Know that I'm probably not gonna wear any other hats this winter, they're perfectly snug and comfortable XD

I had also ordered a second diamond clan beanie (currently wearing lol) in the goal of trying to embroider on the flower pattern like on Melli's hood, fun little side project once I get the right thread in hand!

Thanks again cecilioque! I can't wait to see what else you come up with!! :D

This was a quick piece I drew of @cecilioque's Depot Agent OC, Caelum, for her birthday!

They were very fun to draw, especially the hair

AHHHHH PINS GET!!!

So nicely packaged, and they arrived so fast! Wasn't expecting a fellow Washington native to be one of my favorite SubMas artists, so awesome!

Thank you so much @cecilioque !!

I'm so excited to put these two on something cool, still figuring out what, but it's gonna be cool!

VIBRATES!!! Sticker sheet collab hosted by @cecilioque came in so ofc I HAD to start using them >:)) they all came out so nicely, I had such a hard time picking and choosing which ones should go on my computer ^^'' unfortunately had to cut quite a few of my favorites to leave room for future stickers :( but the rest are going on my binders, so it works out!

I halt the train to bring you some STICKERS!

But hark! They are not the only stickers that are available! Check out:

Hosted by @cecilioque !

These bad boys are a limited run and for 20 bucks you too can have 50+ stickers, and at least half of them would be about the funny train men! The other half of this sticker pack is about Unova (and we all love and cherish Unova).

Here’s a bonus archeops, getting bribed to the photoshoot.

FireflySummers’ Guide to Arguing Against the Use of AI Image Generators

(AKA I hate AI image generators so fucking much that I published a whole ass academic article on it)

Read the Paper: Art in the Machine: Value Misalignment and AI "Art"

Citation: Allred, A.M., Aragon, C. (2023). Art in the Machine: Value Misalignment and AI “Art”. In: Luo, Y. (eds) Cooperative Design, Visualization, and Engineering. CDVE 2023. Lecture Notes in Computer Science, vol 14166. Springer, Cham. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-43815-8_4

The purpose of the original paper and now this post is the following:

Provide at least one academic article that you can cite. (Full paper + citation available below)

Make explicit community values that have previously been implicit, in order to better examine your own perceptions of the online artist community, and where you sit within it.

Provide rebuttals to common pro-AI talking points, with the intention of shutting down the conversation and reclaiming the narrative. 

What this paper and post cannot do:

Act as a sole authority about the online artist community and its values. We are not a monolith, and it is up to you to think critically about what, exactly, you want to take away from this discussion.

Provide a way to convince AI Evangelists that what they’re doing is wrong and bad and needs to stop. You will never convince them. Again, focus on shutting them down and reclaiming the narrative.

Final Disclaimer: I'm a very fallible researcher who is still very much learning how to do academia. I cannot speak for the entirety of the online artist community or fanartist community. We all have different lived experiences. I have done my best to include diverse voices; however if you have concerns or critiques, I am open to hearing them.

If you show up to debate in favor of AI image generators, you will be automatically blocked.

If you have read this far, thank you very much. I hope that you have found a constructive lens for approaching the war with AI image generators, as well as a new tool for shutting down debate and reclaiming the narrative.
