Drawing reference that professional animators recommend 

🙄🙄🙄🙄

He did it intentionally

"If your still reading: As a female talking in Utube chat rooms, male psychiatrist mislabeled 'Penis envy' with a concept called ' pick your winners and your loosers',...that's when a male or group of males discredited a female comment so that male or group of men can lie about where the comment occurred and use it to treat a competitive male like crap. The news and few music AMVS , males have chosen this bizarre behavior with me recently. In the arts, that's seen to me as politically motivated and I'd refuse to put up with it."

"The more i talked with my fellow aniamtor/art friends the more i wondering how so social progressive groups can be so conservative in production methods" Totally agree - as an "artistic person" i could never be in a cubicle all day with a boss telling me my drawing is "off-model" lol

I think to play a devil's advocate, a lot of people would love to sit back and relax but also want job security. But also as a satan's advocate, i've also had some pretty poor personal experiences, though i do not represent the animator. I think the concept of anti ai in the workforce and at least anti corporate ai 1000% for sure makes most workers capitalistic sense. As for my own personal pov, i think i've met some friends or the artless who were working 2-3 jobs to try and feed their kids im my story. Their friends rped or had chars, so they wanted to play too and had no money. So their choice was to color a base after coming home from 6 am to 7 pm shifts and eating 7-8 and then being called lazy 8-10 pm and then having it called ugly, or just asking for a piece while trying to feed their kids. A fair amount of people just to be frankly honest did turn out to just be well.. Not those kinda people tbh, just kinda like people watching the tv. I think there's this scapegoatism going on where people in anti ai are rabid, look at ergojosh. I think there's like a targeted harassment sub like r/artisthate where a bunch of 13-30 year old people try to harass people who aren't fully demonizing it for 1-3 days until the next target. Like look at Ergojosh, guy spent 10+ years on art, touched it once, and they demonized the guy. So you're in this potential spot where if you aren't a raving lunatic, a bunch of people from twitter/reddit try to ruin your life, but they don't go after the corps who cause mass layoffs (hello Pixar/Activision blizzard declaring billions in profits and then laying off staff) Ironically, Overwatch 2 has started technically been getting (at least imho, better looking/more creative but less thematic skins like Anubis Reaper, skull roadhogs, mecha anas, vs pink mercy, green mercy, yellow mercy, and second pink mercy from the human era.) Meanwhile hearthstone may or may not have tried a ai dragon skin for Celeste, and it just was a complete fiasco. The whiskers detached from the face. Most hearthstone characters are too unique for ai to work well on them. There's this massive potential drama that's imho best avoided on a public account. People literally just keyword search "Ai" in the youtube title and respond to every comment 24s old on the groups. I guess the concern isn't labor saving, it's that if a corporation could try to replace you (even though even as a non rabid/annoyedly neutral for A REASON) person, there are quirks with ai. It sucks at ocs (literally every requested character), it needs controlnets/loras to do multi character scenes, text is garbled. But it does make 1000$ quality renders for 0$.. if you're alright with generic stand ins. But it genuinely does give me motion sickness. ai animation just isn't there. But i do feel like there's a lot of virtue signalling. I also think artisthate might be running potential -27 / + 27 downvote/upvote bots. You go to a sub that gets 5 comments and +- 7 votes normally. Artisthate will brigade it and every anti ai comment will get seeded +27 and critical -27 votes. Then people trickling in will help make them 27 to 57. Look at what Ergojosh went through. Guy just touched it and all this drama came, nonstop sludge and wishes of harm for 3 days, then they moved on. The whole thing is just a toxic sludgepit and opinions are my own, not video makers at all. But imho, as a former commissioner, i used to just like the casual group hangout feeling. Art wasn't about the picture but a positive social experience. People made things, you had fun. Words are worthless but i used to be one of those "omg, your art looks so good!" "i love how you do the fur detail" people, then after "GO TO !@#!@# HELL YOU !@##!@#!@ INGRATE!" I kinda became one of those.. "....." "Go take yourself to HELL" people. I think being mobbed can fundamentally affect how you perceive art. I no longer enjoy it or have a appetite for it, it's the same way you might lose your taste for donuts if after a lifetime of eating tasty ones, you were force fed rancid and rotten ones with mold spots all over and then expected to climb over nails for them. I'm not here to bring the heat, nor do i represent the animator. But just my personal experience is, im not sure if corps are gonna represent our interests, but i've had 20x worse experiences with the ai debate than the abortion debate and im at a honest point where if everyone got into a trolley problem that drove them to mars. I'd sink the line back and enjoy the rest of my day.

Most Ai stuff I have seen is also just conserving and re-mushing the same images and stereotypes over and over again. it is super conservative if you want so. like... if you ask for the image of a doctor, in the majority of the results the doctor will probably white and male, while if you prompt a nurse it will probably showing you a bunch of women. If you asked for example for a interracial asian- black couple older woman, younger man. it struggles. not only with making the woman older than the man, but also with making different iterations that fit the ethnicities. And that would be just one image. not an image sequence. AI also has problems with more ambiguous storytelling or nuanced emotional expressions, depictions of gravity, objects touching and flow. if you look at the AI images on pinterest, there's just a bunch of ladies with a blank expression. If you have to clean up all that anyway or make it fit your purpose you can also just find/make a reference that fits your purpose better from the beginning or one that gives you less of a concrete image so it's easier to fill in the the blanks on your own. I also think there is a difference between making things look "correct" physics-wise and depicting mood and tone or also a human body that hasn't perfect proportions and how they move. I really enjoy figure drawing at the moment to see how different models are in their physical ability and how their body shape differs...you can ask AI that but, it would struggle with it. especially when it comes to stuff like fat deposition and muscle imbalances. seeing how other artists solved problems and stylise things can also be very useful to finding your own solutions when it comes to your art but it can also help you just get better when it comes to imagining stuff that looks pleasing. especially if you only have a vague idea what you want yet. AI often lacks the overall intention when it comes to narration and specificity in my opinion. it doesn't *want* to tell a story or convey something, because it can't want things in general... it's just a tool. if you take artists/filmmakers/photographers as references you can also take in different underlying narratives and learn from that, you can learn from their decisions they made, because they actually decisions.

no the computer does that. You just post it 😊
