BUG POEM: Still Image Ed. Cuz The Other One Was Bad On Some People’s Eyes (very Fair Lmao)

BUG POEM: still image ed. cuz the other one was bad on some people’s eyes (very fair lmao)

here is a poem i wrote at work (instead of working) over a year ago and finished illustrating the other day! (using Shake Art DELUXE on itch.io, the shaking version is here)

Transcript below:

bug i am, yes i am bug

(also known to some as grub)

but either bug or or grub you see i'll always be snug as can be

where am i snug? i'm glad you asked! (the answer's truly clear as glass)

for as a bug who's snug, you see there's only one place i could be!

snug as a bug in a rug i'm sure, is something that you've heard before

a common phrase... a simple rhyme... (matters little to most, just a throwaway line...)

but to me it's something more, for in that rug its ME who snores!

so next time you wish goodnight, i wish you may, i wish you might,

remember bug, snug as can be for in your rug that bug is me <3

your expressions are lovely

i am looking at them

Dude… thank you so much, i am fr screenshotting this, this is one of the nicest things anyones ever said about my art…

Tags

asks seriously thank you it means a lot to me i find it interesting that expressions are something people do tend to point out in my art because while i do really enjoy drawing them and always pay close attention to making them ‘look right’ i dont really ever think of it as an art skill i have or that one can have like when i think about it now I realize i spend a lot of time getting them just so but i didnt think of it as something i actively aimed to achieve in my pieces if that makes any sense i wonder if other artists find this too that the things that come more naturally/dont have to work really hard at are the things people like the most in your art

There’s a protest going on against AI art over on artstation, so I feel like now is the time for me to make a statement on this issue!

I wholeheartedly support the ongoing protest against AI art. Why? Because my artwork is included in the datasets used to train these image generators without my consent. I get zero compensation for the use of my art, even though these image generators cost money to use, and are a commercial product.

Musicians are not being treated the same way. Stability has a music generator that only uses royalty free music in their dataset. Their words: “Because diffusion models are prone to memorization and overfitting, releasing a model trained on copyrighted data could potentially result in legal issues.” Why is the work of visual artists being treated differently?

Many have compared image generators to human artists seeking out inspiration. Those two are not the same. My art is literally being fed into these generators through the datasets, and spat back out of a program that has no inherent sense of what is respectful to artists. As long as my art is literally integrated into the system used to create the images, it is commercial use of my art without my consent.

Until there is an ethically sourced database that compensates artists for the use of their images, I am against AI art. I also think platforms should do everything they can to prevent scraping of their content for these databases.

Artists, speak out against this predatory practice! Our art should not be exploited without our consent, and we deserve to be compensated when our art is exploited for commercial use.
