There are ways AI could make our lives as artists better, but what is happening right now is not it.
Artists are being exploited on a large scale, junior jobs being dismantled, digital art being devalued even more in the public eye and a few tech bros getting rich off of our hard work while laughing in our face.
It is not easy to find an answer to this, but the first step is to take a stance against it and try to protect at least some spaces. Artstation, we are the ones that made you big. Without us you are nothing. It's time for you to pay back and protect us.
