Raw LLM Responses

I usually don't write or post comments on YouTube but I wanted to add my personal thoughts to this particular topic... I occasionally AI art but only for personal use and as a reference, in part because I write and like to create stories around characters. That said, I am against AI art being paid for, I'm against how the tool is abused and how steals assets from real artists. And I despise the corporate asshats who use it as an excuse to not pay actual artists for their work. Presently, I'm also trying again to learn how to draw the way I want to. I used to draw all the time as a kid, I loved it. I even made silly comics with an animal superhero character. I was discouraged after two incidents when I was thirteen, I had severe chronic pain and my grandmother told me it was a waste of time to learn to draw. Because I wasn't born talented enough, and since I wasn't born with talent... I would never get good at drawing. This coupled with the paralyzing sense of hopelessness I suffered from my depression, made me give up. And I still have chronic pain, I still have struggles with my mental health, but I've been working hard to learn to draw again. Because it IS a passion of mine, but it took until I was an adult and realized I was lied to that I got back at it.
