Roughly twenty years ago or more (like 2005 and earlier), practically another lifetime for me, I did 3D-modeling and then renders of my models in a now fully ancient software application called 'Bryce.' It was lots of fun, though I certainly wasn't going to quit my day job. This picture is called 'Azalang Palace.' It's supposed to be an extra-dimensional palace in the mythical city of Azalamb.

by Bryce

I'll be posting more of these, so you can see how far digital art has come.

If you think the very existence of visual AI doesn’t actively make development for Indie developers even more difficult, here are some of the things we have to consider now:

Art thieves AND folks who rely on AI RNG are now for hire

Have a discerning eye for the advancement of the technology

Being "overly” cautious over new portfolios made after 2020

Failure to hire an actual artist means assets are not legally protected

If you miss the AI in the art, the audience surely won’t.

We have to maneuver around AI users lying about using AI

Steam will not accept games made using AI. (Good)

That billionaires won’t just make a base model that won’t rely on scraping

It’s the petulance of the last one that gets me. So from a small business perspective, visual AI only made commissioning artists outside of my circle harder. Because there’s no way I’m paying someone to use AI when it can’t even understand the prompt “dark skin” a lot of the time.

#AI Art #Stable Diffusion #midjourney #dalle #Artist #And how hard is it to make a non-blurry eye or hands without he fused fingers???#It's like the creators of the software sort of forgot how to make things work in a more artistic manner #Checks out I guess

Cartes postales de Saint-Non-lieu, 11

Non-lieu ("non-place" or "nonplace" in English) is a concept, introduced by French anthropologist Marc Augé. It describes transient spaces where people maintain anonymity and which lack the cultural or historical significance to be considered true "places" in anthropological terms. Augé contrasts this concept with "anthropological places," which are spaces that reinforce identity and facilitate meaningful social interactions among individuals with shared cultural references. Non-places, however, do not serve as meeting points or foster a sense of community. In essence, a non-place is an area we pass through rather than inhabit, where individuals remain detached, unnamed, and lonely.

One anime that my spouse and I enjoyed was Non Non Biyori, a slice of life anime and manga about some girls growing up in rural Japan. One of the youngest, cutest, and arguably the most interesting characters is Renge Miyauchi.

This morning I was wondering what she would look like as a teenager in the current anime style.

Apologies for my recent radio silence. I've had a lot on my mind lately.

This post isn't Earthspark-related at all, but please read it.

I need to take a second on this blog to acknowledge some things going on in the world. I should not have stayed silent on this blog before, but I'm trying to fix that now.

Genocide in Palestine + how you can help Palestinians

You can buy e-sims for people in Gaza here. Anything helps.

Click here daily to help generate funds for Palestine. It's free and takes less than a minute.

Here's a list of where you can donate to help Palestine.

(If there's anything I should add to this section, please let me know.)

-----

The KOSA bill, what it's going to do if passed, and how you can help prevent it from taking effect

KOSA will essentially erase anonymity from the internet by requiring people to upload their government ID or other form of identification to any social media site, as well as restricting resources and information on LGBT rights, history, racism, and more. This bill will censor the entire internet and destroy privacy while violating First Amendment rights and potentially putting minors in danger.

This also could very well mean the end of Tumblr, and I'm not exaggerating here.

Tomorrow KOSA could be passed in Senate, and from there it will need to pass in the House of Representatives before being signed into law by the president. It's not doomsday yet, but it is a dangerous situation-- and here's what you can do.

StopKOSA.org provides you with a template email to send to your representatives. You can leave it how it is or edit it to say what you want, and then send it from their website.

The website also allows you to call your representatives and gives you a template of what to say.

BadInternetBills.org, run by the same people, takes action against KOSA as well as other bills like EARN IT. At the time of posting this, over 356,000 people have signed this petition.

Additionally there are several petitions on change.org to help stop KOSA. Here are a few of them.

STOP KOSA

STOP THE KOSA

Stop Kosa

Save Humanity, Oppose KOSA

STOP THE KOSA ACT

(Again, please let me know if there's anything I should add.)

-----

One last thing-- The evolution of AI images and video.

I don't really have anything good to say. AI is evolving fast and changing the world as we know it. We are adapting, but nobody knows how this really is going to end up.

A few quick points:

AI images are not art. That's all. AI "artists" who genuinely claim to have made something of their own just by typing a prompt into a generator will be blocked. (Which has been in my rules for a while, but I still think it needs to be said.)

I recommend Glaze for artists who don't want their art being scraped and used for data training. Especially with the recent rumors of an upcoming deal between Tumblr and Midjourney. There's also a similar program called Nightshade (haha, earthspark reference? anyone?🦉) that I haven't tested myself but have heard good things about.

-----

That's all, I suppose. Reblogs are good, if you don't mind.

Spread the word about KOSA. Contact your representatives. Sign the petitions.

Support Palestine if possible. Donate if you can. If you are unable to donate, make sure to do your daily clicks.

Stay safe and take care of yourselves. ❤️

✭ Series Masterlist ✭

Languishing in a dull and lonely existence on the forest moon of Endor after travelling there to help salvage Death Star wreckage, a nearly fatal encounter with a mysterious bounty hunter out in the forest heralds an opportunity to utilise long-forgotten skills and develop something more profound than you ever thought possible.

Second person POV, present tense. Set post-season 2, diverges from Canon events before TBoBF and season 3. This is a novel-length, exceptionally slow burn with an original plot, worldbuilding, and fully-developed characterisation. SWU concepts and lore are accurately researched.

WORDS: 406,560

PAIRING: Din Djarin x Female Reader/You

RATING: Explicit (18+)

CHARACTERS: Din Djarin, Reader/You/Female OC, Original Non-Human Character(s), Original Human Characters, Greef Karga, Cara Dune, Leia Organa, Luke Skywalker, Grogu, Peli Motto

TAGS: Slow Burn, Slow Build, Romance, Love, Sexual Tension, Eventual Smut, Smut, Sex, Sexual Content, Explicit Sexual Content, Fluff, Fluff and Smut, Fluff and Angst, Light Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Relationships, Healthy Relationships, Canon-Typical Violence, Blood and Injury, Dark Past, Additional Warnings In Author's Notes, Bounty Hunter Din Djarin, Soft Din Djarin, Touch-Starved Din Djarin, Din Djarin Needs a Hug, Smart Din Djarin, Soft Dominant Din Djarin, Ewok Species, Mandalorian Culture, Mando'a Language, New Razor Crest, Thoroughly Researched, Worldbuilding, No use of y/n.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: This took me almost a year to write and four months to edit/proof. Each chapter is prefaced with specific tags and (where necessary) warnings, plus word counts. End notes contain translations and comments… this baby is thoroughly researched, so I’m sharing context where appropriate. I’ve also added definitions of in-universe terms so people less familiar with the franchise won’t be left wondering what the hell certain words or references mean. This is a slow burn (adult themes), and although the explicit content only occurs in the latter half, when it does, it warrants the ‘E’ rating. Basically, the first half is a love story, and the second half gets spicy. I hope you enjoy it!

@burntheedges has written a spectacular little drabble detailing what Din was up to during the paragraph break near the end of chapter 1 (*SPOILERS* you don’t find this out until chapter 27).

@roughdaysandart has sketched a fantastic study of chapter 33 and it’s absolutely perfect (*SPOILERS* cliffhanger ending for the chapter).

@djarin-desires has created some awesome AI images of a few scenes using Midjourney.

I spent a stupid amount of money on the Hot Toys official Din Djarin action figure, simply so I could photograph him in poses from my fic 🤷🏼‍♀️ This is just a taster of what’s to come, but here he is offering to help Reader climb onto the speeder in chapter 8.

🧡💚 Thank you for reading! 💚🧡

Midjourney and OpenAI Suck My Ass (GN!Reader x Midjourney x OpenAI, 18+)

Summary: Tumblr's selling our art, our posts, our content, our data to Midjourney Inc. and OpenAI. Just like how mom sold our virginity to One Direction.

Long-awaited spinoff to Elon Musk Lick My Nuts. Fuck these companies training AI with our works without our consent.

Rating: Explicit (Minors do NOT interact). Word Count: ~3200. Tags/Warnings: No use of Reader pronouns. Non-consensual sale of user data to third-party companies. Rim-jobs. Read it on Ao3 Here!

Midjourney and OpenAI suck my ass.

Heart of Azalamb

This is my favorite 'old' render that I did. I did all of the modeling in the scene in 3DS Max. It was rendered in Bryce.

It's meant to depict the extra-planar and extra-dimensional Titan City of Azalamb. It's where some of the Titans fled when great destruction fell upon the World of Asdar in its antediluvian past. Yeah, my love of domed cities reaches way back!

Geniune question: how is it commercial if the AIs are free to use?

I'll be honest here: I have a very, very hard time believing that this is a good faith question. Because nobody is THAT uninformed.

Let's start with the basic thing here: They aren't. They might have a limited free option, but a software with what essentially amounts to an extended free trial version is not suddenly non-commercial. It has a free option. You still have to pay for the main deal.

And that isn't considering those out there that are add supported.

And then let me throw some numbers and facts at you:

Midjourney Inc. has already made 300 million dollar in revenue this year.

OpenAI hit the 2 billion last year.

OpenAI is backed by Microsoft.

Adobe has Firefly, which is an image generator. Adobe is very much a for profit company with an annual revenue of nearly 20 billion dollars.

Image generators are commercial products which could not exist without the non-consensual, unpaid work of millions of artists. On multiple occasions have the makers of these unethical programs admitted to it and that they could not exist if they actually had to pay for the data.

If your businessmodel cannot work without exploitation, you have no business model.

I want to chime in to the ''AI debate'' to cut the debate on the whole ''but these machines are inspired by art just like humans are!'' from root.

THAT'S NOT THE DISCUSSION HERE. This is not a philosophy debate. There's an active, material WORKERS RIGHTS issue here.

These are companies straight up using artists's work without licensing or compensation to cleanly do what's basically a collage of all their works and then profiting off it.

They are actively and consciously trying to cut the labor from artists, illustrators and visual developers from all industries that need our work to exist by stealing their already existing copyright.

And yes, the artists who are currently suing and on the frontlines against this DO know how these AI systems work. It's not a mystery. Go check out Karla Ortiz (& co) exposition on it in front of the US Senate.

The outrage isn't based on some unfounded fear. It's based on knowledge from experienced artists on how our process works and how it's very different from this "AI". It's not artificial inteligence yet. It's prompts that the machine uses to create from a database of already existing, non-consenting artists.

The outrage is based on the fact that some of these prompts are literally artists names, deceased or alive, none of them compensated. This was a conscious decision made fully aware that it was a legal iffy zone. Since "AI" hasn't been legislated yet and there's no regulations, they took advantage of the legal grey zone.

So. This isn't a "human insecure they're replaced by a machine" issue. This is a "workers's copyright is infringed by companies and individuals who seize a legal grey-zone to profit off using their non-consensual, unpaid work" issue.

The whole "bohoo it works just like inspiration!" argument is a misdirection the people who are actively profiting off this labor theft throw to distract and create a debate of something that isn't debatable.

And also? It's incorrect. That's... not how "inspiration" works. The closest example to what Midjourney, etc do would be if I as a working artist did photobashing and tracing from other known artists, without any processing of an idea, without any comprehension of form and meaning. That is... 1) Impossible. Any human artist de facto needs to put some level of thought, decision and idea - even if they're just making a collage. These servers do not have intelligence , no matter the name, to make decisions. They work by inputs. 2) If the photobashing or tracing is based from non-licensed pictures, that would get the human artist into legal trouble or, at the very least, put them in murky waters. See the Kevin Bao scandal.

TLDR; The current fight from working artists against Midjourney, StableDiffusion and "AI" generators is about these companies building their databases from unlicensed, unpaid work by artists who have not consented to this use in any shape of form and then actively wanting to profit off this work. It's not a philosophy debate. It's not insecurity.

Stop debating the meaning of inspiration. It's a distraction from the real material issue here: copyright theft to replace labor from those copyright holders.

More sources:

Written testimony submitted to Senate's hearing.

BBC breakdown

Conversations from the MJ public server that show they were aware of the legal murky waters they were in. Not only about copyright but also about the generators creating porn from real people pictures.

Full video from the hearing in the Senate.

Hi! I’m a big fan of your art and found your work via tumblr. However I’m not an artist myself (not as much as I used to be, anyway) and I know you’re on Cara now. Is it worth it for non-artists to join? I love seeing your work and that’s pretty much the only reason why I’d join Cara, but at the same time I don’t want to make an account I’m going to forget about. 😅 What are your thoughts on it for non-artists?

Hey nonny, thank you so much for the kind words, I am happy you enjoy my art so much! 🧡 I am very sorry for not posting on Tumblr anymore and abandoning everyone on here, but I just cannot with good faith feed all my stuff into Midjourney AI by posting it on here, even with Glaze and Nightshade added on, it just feels bad knowing it will DEFINITELY end up in the dataset. I have deleted my instagram for the same reason. :(( About Cara! I would say art appreciators are welcome, too! You have a social feed to which you can share memes, posts, and art you enjoy. You also have a dedicated bookmark system with folders, so you can collect the posts you like. But especially the social feeds make it worth it for non-artists as well, I'd say. It is a combo of both portfolio and a social like twitter/tumblr- SPEAKING OF, if that is still too art-centric for you, I have also hopped on twitter successor Bluesky. Which can lovingly be described as a cross between twit and tumblr (the good parts), and I am very active on there. So that is also an option, especially if you miss the memes, shitposts, and Tasky stanning, as it is heavy on them! PS, both sites can also be accessed without making an account at all, so you could technically just bookmark them and check in on it every once in a while. :) Or if all that is too much, my discord has a public channel to which art updates get posted! I hope any of these options can help you 🧡

>> CARA >> BLUESKY

as a tech lover what do u think of ai. love ur art <3

Oh man. This is a hell of a question!!

I think right off the bat I want to say that “AI” as a term is so so deeply misused it may be beyond repair at this point. The broadness of AI cannot be understated. Even the most basic search and sorting algorithms are AI. Chessbots are AI. Speech recognition is AI. Machine translation, camera autofocus, playlist shuffle, spam filtering, antivirus, inverse kinematics, it all uses AI and has used it for years. Every single piece of software you interact with has AI technology in it somewhere.

All of this is mostly unrelated to what most people think of as AI nowadays (generative AI, like chatGPT or midjourney), both of which are entirely unrelated to the science fiction concept of an artificial intelligence.

That said, I'm assuming you're talking about generative AI since that's the hot-button issue. I think it's a very neat technology and one I wish I could be enthusiastic about seeing improve. I also think it is a deeply dangerous technology and we are entirely unprepared for the consequences of unfettered access to and complete trust in AI generation. It's what should be a beneficial technology built on foundations of harm – programmed bias from inextricable structural prejudice in the computer science world, manipulation of sources without creator/user/random person who happened to be caught on a camera once/etc consent – being used for harm – deliberate disinformation, nonsense generated content being taken as fact, violation of personal privacy and consent (as seen with deepfake porn), the list goes on. There's even more I could say about non-generative neural networks (that very reductive reference to "bread scanning AIs they taught to recognize cancer cells" so highly lauded by tumblr) but it just boils down to the same thing; the potential risk of using these technologies irresponsibly far and away outweighs any benefit they might have since there's no actual way to guarantee they can be used in a "good" or "safe" way.

All of it leaves a rotten taste in my mouth and I can't engage with the thought of any generative AI technology because of it. There's just too much at stake and I don't know if it even can be corralled to be used beneficially at this point. The genie's out of the bottle.
