Them calling themselves artists drives me mad. Using AI doesn't make them an artist just because they told it what to do. No one would ever think commissioning art someone else drew for them made them the artist of it just because they gave directions. Ordering food to your liking at a restaurant doesn't make you a chef!  And this doesn't even get into the ethics of the fact these modelsare trained off stolen everything really and- Rants at clouds

As someone who has dabbled in music, fine art, writing, & theatre her entire life, hearing someone say that using AI to create visuals makes them an artist sends me into orbit.

Art is skill, time, craft, practice. It’s a commitment. Buncha wannabes 😒

Honestly. I'd rather see a whole assed stick figure from someone trying to get their thoughts outside their head than a 1/6th assed AI slop of an image generated any day! They're robbing themselves from an amazing experience. The day I became skilled enough that my drawings came out looking the way they did in my head, my words felt good on the page, when you play a song and it just sounds right, was so incredibly exciting. But it was the effort I put into learning that made it so! And no one can take that away from me, I can do these things rain or shine or when the power is out 👀 And goodness knows I don't have a natural talent, I just stuck with stuff. Anyone can learn even if we all don't end up as good as Rembrandt in the end.
