aw3som3nay3 asked:

Question do you have a Patreon? I personally just got on the “your boyfriend “ wagon and I also really love your art, would love to see more of both of I could!

Hello!
I don’t have a Patreon, as it does not work in my country… Unfortunately.
I do have a Boosty page (https://boosty.to/maddcactus). It’s like an analogue to Patreon.
But I haven’t updated it in a while, because of life. It’s been harsh and I haven’t drawn as much as I’ve used to…

lupinepixel asked:

are you still alive?? where yours arts??


I am alive.)
Well, at the moment I’m barely posting anywhere. If I do - it’s either twitter (there are big gaps between me posting anything there, really. Like… I can be silent for weeks, and then post something old from Boosty), or on Boosty and Telegram. (those are more of a supporters pages, but even there I don’t post regularly).

So, yeah. My art is somewhere out there)
Twitter, Boosty, VK, and TG. (I can be found under same or similar handle that I have here…)

The yesterday’s message was not in fact from the person who’s been annoying me and making me fucking paranoid… -__-
And I’m sorry that I was being rude.

I’ve got another message from the anonym, answered it and I hope they’re not upset with me as much.

As ya’ll can see - I’m in no condition to communicate with people properly. So, I’ll just leave it at that and maybe come back when I’m doing better.

madd rambles uuuuuggghhh

How one annoying and stubborn person, can ruin everything by constantly bugging you, through different accounts and platforms, just so they can force you to forgive them and be friends.
Need I say that that’s not how forgiveness works?.. And being friends too.
I don’t owe my friendship to anyone.

I barely talk to people now, and if I now seem rude and stand off-ish, it’s because of this one person, who keeps talking to me, not telling me who they are, just so they can… I have no idea what, bother me for no reason?? Ask me stupid questions and act condescending, implying that any and all of my decisions are weird or stupid, cuz they woud’ve done it differently, etc. Just over all unpleasant vibes and advices I haven’t asked for, since we’re not friends.

They use specific sentences and phrasing, which now fucking trigger me. %)
Since they’ve supported me financially through Boosty for some time, now they think that I’m like.. A bought puppet they can have fun with and that I must be grateful thy graciousness for blessing me, I puny peasant, with thou money. What a bunch of parasocial baloney.

So, anyways… I needed to ramble about it. Just to clear things out - why I may accidentally be rude (especially if you’re sending me messages anonimously), why I don’t talk to anyone I don’t know, don’t chit-chat about nothing except work, with people I don’t know for a long time.

And I know you’re reading this, probably, feeling butthurt or whatever. I won’t be your friend. I don’t need your support in any way. I don’t want to do anything with you. I wouldn’t have sat to shit in one field with you, even if we were on the opposite sides of it %)))) I wouldn’t have touched you with a goddamn 20 feet long pole.

madd rambles gtfo I'm not in the mood

Good morning (or whatever) your highness, please, may the people access to your beloved twitch account? (If you can still stream) We all desire to listen to your sweet voice while you say thing we can't understand (got terrible russian skills). I wish you a glorious and wonderful day, best regards, your fans.

No %)
You (all of you, I guess you have multiple personalities, right?) probably have been banned and for a good reason, seeing how passive-agressive you are being. So suck it up and listen to the crickets.

My fans still can access it if they’d like, even though I don’t stream.

As AI art gets harder to clock, I feel like we are going to need to have a discussion about attribution and it's probably going to bum some people out.

Because the surest way to avoid platforming, reblogging, or encouraging AI art posting is to know where every image you share originated and that's 1) boring, tedious research and 2) extremely limiting in what you feel you can reblog. But if unattributed images never gets traction, people will start attributing their images.

I've been guilty of this in the past, but for a while now it's been my policy that if I can't verify the origin, I don't share the image. That goes for stuff like screen grabs of headlines too -- more than once I've avoided spreading misinformation by saving a post to research before I reblog, then seeing the post refuted before I've been able to verify it.

And I usually try to attribute photos I take -- case in point, the "woman with shrimp" post gets a lot of attention but not one comment about it being AI, despite it being pretty similar to something you'd get from an AI. That's because I clearly state it's in a museum and link to its catalogue page.

I'm not saying this to scold anyone -- I think yelling at the Internet to cite its sources is very much a losing game -- but because I don't see this discussed much. We're such fertile ground to be fooled by AI art because we've grown accustomed to not questioning the origins of any given image. And of course I also want to encourage both OPs to attribute their images and rebloggers to verify unattributed ones.

So basically look out for untagged and uncredited AI?

copperbadge

Kind of the opposite to be honest -- I suggest that we stop looking for AI and start looking for where our content comes from.

Being able to identify AI purely by sight -- "count the fingers, look at shadows, find irregularity in patterns" -- is only going to get more difficult. Currently, just "seeing" that something is AI sometimes results in artists being harassed when they post work which is mistaken for AI-generated.

So the idea is that if you want to avoid platforming AI imagery, don't look for uncredited AI; look for a source and if you don't see one, try and find one. If you can't find a source, simply consider not reblogging it. That both encourages people to source their posts and reduces the likelihood of spreading AI generated content.

For example, this image crossed my dash the other day. I can't find a source for it -- reverse image search just turns up Pinterest and other uncredited posts on other social media. No "this is my kitchen", no "this is a floor I installed."

It looks pretty realistic, but look at the asymmetric star shapes and the occasional non-square black stone on the sides. The lines on the smaller bat's wings are weird and so are some of the cabinet handles. The smaller bat is slightly asymmetrical, which could just be the installation; the weird arrow shape below the smaller bat is also asymmetrical. It's ambiguous -- but if it IS real and I can't link to the person who did the tilework or at least owns the home, I really shouldn't share it regardless. Which means I don't have to know if it's AI because either way I'm not reblogging it.

The idea isn't to identify AI imagery but to develop habits that mean you don't have to. This has the knock-on effect of encouraging people to provide source attribution, not to mention discouraging people from reposting legitimate artistic content without linking to the artist. It at least helps to lessen multiple issues that are very tough to provide permanent solutions for.

may I also add?

One of the biggest issues with generative ai is that it uses artists’ work without their permission.

So even if you see SOURCED artwork, even if the person CLAIMS they have the artist’s permissions (which, someone could easily just say that) you should still consider not reblogging it. This is VERY common in the animation, illustration, and game communities. There are tons of accounts dedicated to reposting art from popular industry instagram/twitter/bluesky artists, and they ARE often attributed…. but are you certain the artist consented to having their art shared on another platform?

Personally, I don’t want my art shared on accounts I don’t own and manage myself, ESPECIALLY in this era where art can get scraped at any moment. I can’t speak for other artists, but it’s always better to play it safe.

Some artists may have conditions (like requiring a link to their shop) that aren’t getting met by reposters. For example, artists that are unemployed bc of the recession could genuinely lose out on sales they needed to make rent because someone’s repost got more shares than the one that linked to their etsy store or patreon.

If you’re going to be anti-genAI, you MUST also be stubborn about artist consent in general. Try to only share art if the OP is the artist.

Credit the real artists, don’t repost to other platforms without permission, or without links to their social pages\portfolios\etc.
Please, do the reverse image search, it works in 95%, so better do it and credit the source.
Actual artists deserve to be credited and acknowledged.

if you don't do the reverse image search I'm sorry but that's cuz you're lazy that's it if you're lazy and don't want to bother to credit anyone - do not repost it's as simple as that you wanna share it with your buddies? dm it then I guess there's no such thing as an AI artist those are just prompters fucking fight me I will die on this hill and I'll take all of AI-simps with me

Hey I made art of my oc and I may have used your design for the diner uniform as a reference. Am I allowed to post it and give you credit or should I change the design? I didn't think about it until now. My bad!

It’s fine) You can post it, no problem.
I’d like to see how it turned out! }: )

i literally dont care what your excuse for using AI is. if you didnt put your own effort into making it im not putting my own effort into interacting with it.

"buhbub uhbubuh its just a tool!!" yeah youd know about being a tool wouldnt you

I just like the second addition to this post. It made me laugh therefore it's valid as the criticism for using the goddamn AI crap I don't care if it's “good now” or “tis just helpful and to fasten the process” it's ffffffucking LAZY and cheap bite me idgaf
