Omg this shit is ludicrous. Are you baby brained?

I don’t use pencils to draft my work (penciling). I do this intentionally b/c I am a trained printmaker & back in the day (think sixteenth century) when making intaglio prints (that means on copper plates), there was no way to erase so they etched balls-to -the-wall style, mistakes & all.

I spent a long time learning to create line art w/o using pencil b/c I wanted to create that same weird, not-quite-right look that intaglio prints have.

I’m not sure why I’m bothering explaining myself b/c I am not in the habit of doing so but, goddamn, get a fucking hobby then maybe you won’t feel so threatened by AI.



HA! Are you accusing my work of being AI? That’s fucking hilarious


Well, you are making up head cannon. Check my profile, there’s a Pixelfed link. I’m an artist not an engineer.



I happen to agree w the developer that peoples’ problem w AI is actually a problem w Capitalism



Yeah I do. This is a small, volunteer, open source developer creating something for our benefit & has found a way to ease their workload but the purity brigade demands they type everything out by hand from scratch b/c they have big feels & are reflexively reactionary about AI. Seems shitty to me.


Okay. I guess you want the volunteer open source dev to write everything by hand from scratch so it will pass your high standards. That’s on you, honestly.



They are making the point that you won’t be able to tell the difference. & It’s a salient one.


I am waiting for the full release but goddamn I hope it doesn’t take too long!

Mewgenics is keeping me happy atm, but StS is the literal GOAT
