#this apparently popular good omens artist recently came across my dash who 100% uses midjourney as a reference and it's so fucking obvious

pro-ai artists are the dumbest people i swear to god. and i'm talking about actual artists here, not the "ai artists" who suddenly cropped up last year, but people with skills who decided that using an exploitative tool built on the labour of their peers is okay if it means they get ahead- because they're able to put out paintings or commissions faster or whatever. like, you might be able to scam a few people for a short while, but this tech is gonna kill your income too eventually if you don't stand in solidarity now 🙃
