The New AI "Artists" PSA Thread

Posted 10 months, 5 days ago (Edited 9 months, 20 hours ago) by antisocial_ai

tw: someone in the masterlist posted regarding threatening to self harm/kill themselves in the comments and mentioned their ed. If this triggers you, stay safe and click off if you must! <3

As a reminder, keep all comments complying to the service forum rules. Thank you. If you see yourself on this masterlist and would like to refute it, please comment or pm me. If you have someone(s) to add to the psa but want to remain anonymous, pm me. If anyone starts drama on this thread: report, block, and move on. Please save the thread replies for important matters, not stirring the drama pot.

Hello! Considering what happened to the old ai user masterlist, I thought I'd make a new one!

This masterlist is for any ai "artists" you have come across, whether they be on DeviantArt, Toyhouse, or any other site! Since these people are actively scamming people out of their hard-earned money, there needs to be a list so people can't get scammed. Even if they are using their ai "art" for personal use, they are still hurting actual artists because the ai uses people's uncredited art (for full explanation see here, not my explanation but it explains really well)!

I am aware that the user who made the old psa thread was blackmailed with doxxing, but I have taken measures to prevent that. I will keep this thread open as long as I possibly can. Thanks for the help, everyone!

I will keep this masterlist updated myself with links below. Feel free to ctrl+f to see if a scammer you've found is listed already or not. Thanks!<3

 DEVIANTART:
-DA has a 500 max blocklist, so keep this in mind while blocking
-Use the Tag Blocker on DA (Account Settings -> Browsing -> Muted Tags) You should select "Mute AI" but ALSO you should type in AI tags such as "aiadopt" "aiadoptable" "aiadoptables" "ai_adopt" "ai_art" "ai" "midjourney" "artbreeder" "(insert ai name)"

- Keep watch for tags on like AI/midjourney/Artbreeder/(insert AI name) character tag through character browsing system on TH

Extension:
This can help weed out ai and triggering content, too!
https://rthaut.github.io/deviantART-Filter/

This can sometimes detect ai images (not 100% accurate):

https://hivemoderation.com/ai-generated-content-detection

Before Buying on DA:
- Check account age (AI only gained popularity in 2020ish so, older than that is less likely, HOWEVER, some older artists have turned to AI)
- Check Deviation Count (Submitting many many adopts every day)
- Consider the Deviation's name (If it's a number "Adopt 3838" or generic "Elf Lady Adopt" "Anime Girl Adopt" it should be suspect)
- Check if the comments are turned off. (AI artists receive a lot of hate so they turn these off)
- Check the tags on their adopt (Both when for sale and after sale, some artists will only add "aiadopt" AFTER the sale is made.
- Check profile for any signs of "Ai Artist" (Do they have "AI" in their name? their profile?
- Check disclaimers/journals/tos (Some AI artists will tell you "you understand it's AI")
- Look for "Pity Party" context ( "Woe is me, I'm just a little guy trying to make beautiful adopts, please don't harass me, please just block me!")

- Check the price. Some will overprice, but most will charge $5 for a detailed ref sheet. If it was made by a real person they wouldn't be charging so little.

- If it is an older account, see if their older artworks match what their current style is and if it would be reasonable for their style to have changed so much.

- Do they have more social media rather than dA? Most artists have multiple accounts, but AI artists usually don't.

- "I used ai for inspiration and drew it myself" is a red flag, they almost never drew it themselves (and you can tell)

- "You don´t need to credit me" is another.

- Deleting adopts after they sold is strange, most artists will mark them as sold instead of deleting them.

antisocial_ai I really was not victimizing myself. I understand that what I was doing wasn’t right now and I’ve corrected it on all fronts. That’s all that I came here to say. None of what I said was to excuse my actions, only explain some of the underlying circumstance. To say that I haven’t taken accountability, despite knowing that I’ve removed all Ai influenced artworks and have refunded several people, is a little unnecessary. There’s a lot of animosity in your reply but I have no animosity towards you and certainly was not trying to start drama by responding to this. I mentioned my autism only because it affected my ability to understand that what I was doing wasn’t correct at first, but I’ve spoken with people on the topic and have changed my thinking and my approach accordingly. I don’t have an issue with staying on this list because I know that I made those mistakes, but I didn’t want people to see this and not understand the full circumstance, which is that I am NOT using Ai anymore and haven’t in months. Of course I replied publicly to a bulletin that is publicly posted with my name on it, I think that was the most honest approach I could have taken. You added “pity party apology” next to my name? I don’t know what I’ve done to wrong you so terribly but I’m sorry nonetheless. I’m not going to comment or reply any further on this for my own mental health but know that I appreciate the sentiment of what you’re trying to do here and I wish you the very best.

DreamyLittleVixen

I quite literally said “That isn’t an excuse of course but I’ve talked with a lot of people who have helped me understand everything a lot better.” I really mean no harm to you or anybody else involved with the creation of this list. No drama. I just wanted to make sure people who saw it understood that I’m not using Ai anymore. All of my artworks in my Deviantart gallery are 100% my own art and you can see speedpaints of them in the descriptions. 

DreamyLittleVixen

antisocial_ai Again I was not trying to use it as an excuse. There’s an apology in my journal that was linked as well. I had multiple influences telling me that it was alright before I started and I thought that my use of Ai was ethical, but I understand now that it was not. The naivety I mentioned was in regard to those influences, I really let them affect my perspective of things and I’m grateful to the people who have talked with me and explained it so that I can come to a better conclusion and see what I was doing for what it is. I’ve made changes to correct things and will continue to do so. I fully support this list and why it exists. I do hope that you have a lovely day. 

antisocial_ai

SenchaFox

You too! ^^

Cycontii

antisocial_ai

I haven't seen the previous thread, and I'm not sure who either of you are, but I thought their response was perfectly acceptable. To me, you are coming off harsh & actually pretty mean, dude. We learn and change. I would interpret it as, 'I didn't see how it was wrong, but someone helped me see how it was wrong.' That's similar to research.

antisocial_ai

Ocaernx

Sorry, my bad. Different interpretations are valid. I can see why I came off that way.

SenchaFox

Sorry if I came off as rude, wasn't intending to be.


DreamyLittleVixen

antisocial_ai It’s alright 💖 I know that you’re just passionate about art and want to help protect what makes it special. I can appreciate that.

ayuyu

giggled at this, glad y’all think im a horrible person

your thread says “because they’re  scamming people out of their hard earned money” how exactly is me having personal characters that i generated the appearance of because i don’t have a reference drawn for them yet with an ai scamming people? check my art tab, all of that art is mine and the art that i sell with my commissions. (if you think that THIS is ai art literally go outside) i have never used ai in any form for a commission and never will
btw, available in the proof 2 img attached, every single piece of ai art are properly tagged as ai art. if i missed one lmk but this is clown shoes behavior (also shows months… literally haven’t ai’d in months…)

also apparently a red flag is that my prices are low for commissions, i did this because i have only ever been commissioned twice, so i wanted to incentivize more people to buy… your thread is just illogical lol. you can make an ai art masterlist if you’d like, just this bs is annoying

if you still think im a shit horrible person for using ai sucks to suck brother. have any other questions reply or dm idc

Lampreii

ayuyu you don't need to victimize yourself, just ask for a note to be added that you consume AI but don't sell it 

antisocial_ai

ayuyu

Even if you were using it for personal use, it is still a bad thing to use. The fact that you came in here guns blazing in victimizing yourself makes me want to keep your name in the list. The prices thing wasn't even about you in particular but you made it that way. I have added to the post explaining why using ai for personal use is bad, too. No one said you're a horrible shit person but you. Maybe get off the internet and talk to someone about your self esteem because it really seems you need to. I'm not trying to insult you with that if it reads that way, I'm being completely serious. If you add all this self-hating shit to your post it's like... really concerning, and that's coming from someone who has dealt with that shit themselves. All the best to you.

edit: sorry if I didn't respond to everything in your post, just took my sleepy meds and they should be kicking in about now

cultofstatic

ayuyu | using ai to create a character literally using stolen assets from other artist is the problem here. Regardless for personal use it doesn't matter it still uses resources from other people without their consent.

Thanks, adding an archive. For some reason it won't archive what's under the spoiler though -_-
