AI hallucinations are the modern equivalent to clip art from the 90's, change my mind.

  • Clip art from the 90's was made with passion
  • It didn't threaten the environment as much
  • There wasn't any attempt to outdo real artists
  • You don't have it as a business model
  • There isn't an uproar about it
  • Nothing was stolen to make the clip art

My business is 90% comic sans and clip art

The last 10% is paint. Graphic arts is my passion

  • ✨behold passion✨

  • everything threatens the environment more nowadays

  • clip art artists constantly threatened the lives of people who called them fake artists.

  • there were clip art business!!

  • everyone hated it then, too

  • the gaping hole in the soul of every artist who got paid to make clip art would disagree with that last one.

I sometimes try using Ai to make a simple Clipart type image. Getting something decent only comes with a stroke of luck. Most of the time it is absolutely infuriating.

Im forced to work on it at work. Every time I do, the scene from Deathclok where they record sound to water plays in my head.
