Raw LLM Responses

I will say as someone that has no artistic skill, and at that I am the only one in my family that doesn't, AI art has allowed me to express myself in ways that I always wanted to. I always let people know that I am using AI for what art I am doing. I always try to make sure it's not something someone else would have made or something so generic anyone would/could have. I don't think it is the greatest in the world and I understand that those that have the talent to make art feel that this is cheating/stealing/unnatural or any other thing that you may want to call it, but for someone like me it is an ability to do something that I have never been able to do and I like that I can now. I will go through hundreds of ones that are not what I want before I find the one that is what I am looking for so it's not like I just type "make me an anime girl" and go with the first one, I will write paragraphs to try to get exactly what I am looking for and then go into an art program and make whatever corrections or changes it may need which teaches me more about making art myself. I know I will never be as good as anyone else that makes art no matter how much I practice so I use the tools that are available for me. I use mostly music AI but I use the visual for the videos I make for it but I always keep it simple and again try to make sure it's not something that is based on an original that someone else has made. I feel that if you need to "poison" your work to keep it safe that is fine I hope they don't do anything to work around it, it's yours and should stay that way. However I don't think making something that is original with AI is stealing, it is definitely cheating but I am still making something as original as I can every time I make something that I put out, and so far I have not made any kind of profit from it so really the only person it is "hurting" is me by not developing those skills that in 50 years of trying I have not been able to do anyway.
