Going on a bit of a rant here, but man am I super tired of seeing this crap all over DeviantArt. A website designed to share art created by people who spend hours, if not days, pouring their efforts into their passions. Now, instead DeviantArt is getting over-saturated by posts of AI generated pictures(not artwork) everywhere, and people are actually defending it and claiming it should be called art and respected as such. Anyone here know why AI generated pictures isn't art? It's because AI pictures take no skill to create. No effort. No sitting at a desk for hours on end trying to get shading just right, or hours spent trying to get that perfect angle. You type a prompt, and the AI generates a picture in literal minutes, sometimes even seconds. Wanna know how? The AI searches the web for anything related to the topic it's been given, and takes work from other artists and Frankensteins them together into something else. That's why certain pictures made by AI look uncannily similar to already established artists implementing that style of art. It's plagiarism in an entirely computerized form, and people are actually defending it. I'm sick of seeing some of my favorite artists on this site suddenly lose views on their work because someone with no actual artistic skill typed a prompt into an AI generator and posted the result on this website calling it art and demanding it be respected. AI "art" is not art, and it never will be. Y'all want something made, why not support actual artists by doing commissions. Or, does the thought of paying money for someone's time and effort really scare you that much?

I regret to inform those that are reading my books of the Life of Fatalis Vilex that I won't be able to post anything new for the foreseeable future. Too many things keep coming up that require my attention. I will get back to writing as soon as I can. I'm sorry.

New chapter for book two posted! I'm going to try and have one out every month from here on out
