since we were talking about spherify earlier, it brings up another issue with ai slop, and that it fucking RUINS dA. like, i know dA is a mixed bag already, but its damn near required to turn on the ai supressor because i swear to god these ai slopdealers cant help but to upload like 50 seperate pics onto their gallery and just clog shit up. go onto any of those guys accounts and see how many pics they just dump, unsorted, all at once, and notice how they barely if ever break over 10 favs. not to mention, look at how many are paywalling harder than half the artists people bitch about on here, they honestly think their shit is worth charging for. and its not just normal paywalling, no they'll make a collection folder in their gallery of a specific theme and charge like 20 bucks or something retarded for access, again, like its worth it. or do some shit like lock something behind premium downloads or putting goddamn ai adoptables up for sale.
and if we look at spherify, their patreon, at the lowest, was 10 bucks a month. other artists in this kink space arent even that money hungry, people who've been doin kink art for decades have patreons thatre one dollar for full access, maybe 5 and again, thats entry level. Not to mention, spherify was charging for their gen tokens, and if you weren't a patreon sub, you could only make faces, which were almost impossible to not make look generically worried. again, charging way too much money for ai slop. Oh and btw, their announcement on their da is horseshit, people werent 'harassing them' on their report my post, i was in it, it was two artists who were just debating them and mad that their shit was used to train their shit.
the only reason these idiots do this shit is because i assume that most of em are trying to pay for either the gpus to gen their shit, or at worst, the tokens they use for other ai-generators, which is honestly worse imo.
look, i know a lot of people here think that anti-ai people are spergs, and sure, they kinda are at times, but lets be real, a lot of these ai fags deserve it.
