Raw LLM Responses

This argument is one of those triggering arguments for someone like me. I use AI to make models for references because references are hard to find and copyright can be very finicky. I do not condone the idea of people using AI to make art for them so they can claim it as their own and announce they are artists. My issue with this problem is that it's a low effort and low power means of making something, without actually putting in the work to do it, while real artists like myself who are struggling to find an audience are left struggling in the dirt to low effort artists. I'm trying to become a fledgling science fiction writer, and to illustrate my novels, but my work is not even considered or liked by the wider community of artists I have presented it to before, it hurts to toil and work my fingers till they cramp and hurt to make pictures of characters, only for someone making AI art or scribbles to get all the praise and attention. That's my beef against AI and low effort art, real artists who work themselves to death get nothing while low effort artists suck up all the praise and attention. I wish people would stop calling artists blue bloods, because blue bloods actually get recognized for what they do, artists are left on the wayside getting NOTHING...
