Look y’all, I just want to set the record straight by making these following points:

1. It is true that using ai art solely for your cover or comic etc and calling it yours is not ethical.

2. However, using ai art it as a reference or for concept development (again not calling it your own art and posting it everywhere just using it as the tool it was meant to be) can be and is beneficial to an artist as they conjure their own artwork.

3. With all of this said, it is also not ok to go on a sort of “witch hunt” on people’s art. Constantly accusing people of using an ai to generate their art can be seen as bullying and can paint you in a bad light, which, honestly, nobody wants at ALL.

All in all, from what I’ve observed so far, ai can be used as a tool to aid in the development of your art concepts and as occasional references. In other words it is a tool, like a hammer. A hammer can be used to drive nails into wood during the construction of a house. It can also be used to hurt someone. An ai can be used to help an artist better their art by being a reference or a help when developing an idea, or it can be used to fabricate fake art. It all depends upon the user.

This is my opinion and of course it may not be perfect because I’m only human and still learning much as we all are so save all the hate ok? Let’s all just go with the flow and have a good time creating. I do wish everyone well and do hope that this issue can be resolved quickly and peacefully. You all are amazing artists and I wish you all much peace and prosperity. Thank you.
