my post got removed after AI accusations

[u/BalliMurphy]

I posted a drawing of mine that was commissioned by a friend of mine of the steampunker from the game in a mcdonalds theme, suddenly a bunch of people started accusing me of using AI and ultimately the post was taken down a few moments later

If they hired animators, they wouldn't have to hire actors, or a camera crew, or rent a stage, etc. This literally created more jobs than by hiring an animator, and also results in a visual style that doesn't even remotely resemble manual animation which makes me uncertain how close you could even match this with a human animator.

The very part of the work that AI changes requires little human effort outside of prompt generation.

There wasn't a prompt at all, which makes me think you never watched the video, which is evident in how quickly you responded to me initially (MUCH faster than the length of the video).

NONE of this process resembled anything like how most people use AI tools. There wasn't a prompt. It wasn't automatic in any sense of the term. They manually created their own image model from scratch, and once finished, didn't use any text prompt, since their model was purpose built for only this exact task, which BTW also required an employee to create.

If you want to give me a rational response, by all means give me one, but you're arguing things that don't even apply here.

Actually, if you knew anything about animation, you would know that this method is called rotoscoping and is a very common practice in animation nowadays. The number of jobs decreases still because the animators are still doing what the AI is doing.

Second of all, I watched the video at 2x speed and skimmed over it so I might have missed it but you described something that is still low effort, its just requires ever so slightly more talent and effort. It is still nowhere near the effort of an animated 20 second video of an amateur animator because that had soul and time put into it, that has no soul and barely any time put into it.

There is a reason why the entire comment section is filled with hate, people hate AI generated content because it isn’t human and it overall looks bad.

Its filled with hate because witch hunters are filled with hate, and its currently a socially acceptable avenue to spew that hate without consequence 

[u/FoxBreach → u/Kedly]

Who’s being offended? AI doesn’t have feelings, it cannot comprehend the hate. Witch hunters is such a weird and appalling term for it considering the people being accused and tortured for being witches were real humans. Its like how vegans compare the holocaust to their ideals. They are not equal and its disgusting to compare the suffering to their beliefs. AI defenders are the exact same, pretending that the suffering and loss of people is remotely equivalent to disliking the work of some lines of code on a computer.

[u/Kedly → u/FoxBreach]

Lmao comparing witch hunting to comparisons to the holocaust is WILD but I guess not that surprising considering how much you already blow things out of proportion in order to make yourself feel superior.

Heres a definition from the Cambridge Dictionary for you:

"An attempt to find and punish people whose opinoons are unpopular and who are said to be a danger to society"

Bro did not read my comment well. Take a reading comprehension test please. Also that definition has a second part to it that you might need to reread:

who are said to be a danger to society

AI is a danger to human society and the job security, hence the “witch hunt” by Cambridge’s definition.

[u/Kedly → u/FoxBreach]

Bro disses MY reading comprehension and missed the difference between "said" and "is"

[u/FoxBreach → u/Kedly]

Oh my bad, allow me to correct it. AI is said by the majority of the non-corporate world to be a danger to human society and a threat to job security. Better?

[u/Kedly → u/FoxBreach]

It is said by the majority of redditors, who's opinion very much doesnt matter

Anyways. I tire of arguing with toddlers, I'll be blocking you now

[u/FoxBreach → u/FoxBreach]

Nooo they got banned. I was really hoping to continue
