not a poll but everyone needs to know about this because tumblr has introduced another toggle that should have been opted out by default
go to your blog settings and scroll all the way down to the visibility toggles. turn this ON.
it may be turned on already if you have search turned off but its best to check anyway. this is not an account setting. you will have to do this for ALL of your individual sideblogs.
aight folks you have probably heard the news already about the AI thing. if it's indeed true then I'm outta here
fuck generative AI and suck my ass Matt. also hammer car explosion
you can find me on bsky, sheezy.art, itaku, artfol and mastodon.art
I urge every artist who sees this post to stop using tumblr. websites of AI shills are not worth using. consider using websites that don't actively sell data to generative AI companies
also any AI shill on this post will be blocked. you've been warned
hey tumblr, wazzat?
Hi, Tumblr. It’s Tumblr. We’re working on some things that we want to share with you.
AI companies are acquiring content across the internet for a variety of purposes in all sorts of ways. There are currently very few regulations giving individuals control over how their content is used by AI platforms. Proposed regulations around the world, like the European Union’s AI Act, would give individuals more control over whether and how their content is utilized by this emerging technology. We support this right regardless of geographic location, so we’re releasing a toggle to opt out of sharing content from your public blogs with third parties, including AI platforms that use this content for model training. We’re also working with partners to ensure you have as much control as possible regarding what content is used.
Here are the important details:
If you have concerns, please read through the Help Center doc linked above and contact us via Support if you still have questions.

Sharktober day 5 - candy shark
Who wants a fruit gummy shark?
with Nightshade out, I want people to watch out for anyone claiming that Glaze and Nightshade are nothing but snake oil, and ask yourselves why the pro genAI crowd would suddenly care about artists when these tools are now out in the open. look at their rhetoric and analyze it. look at their word use and how they try to fearmonger. these should be immediate red flags
also be wary of anyone claiming that they defeated the disruptions by using any simple method such as screenshotting, blurring/unsharpening, resizing etc. these claims have been thrown against Glaze on social media for months without any proof to back them up. meanwhile, Glaze team has provided actual papers to back up research behind these disruption models. would you rather trust a source with research papers to back it up, or some rando with no background in data research claiming these disruptions have been defeated with nothing to back it up?
any claim that these disruptions have been defeated using simple methods and are nothing but snake oil to prey on fearing artists should be highly scrutinized and anyone spreading these claims should be highly questioned
with all of that said, I have to stress that you should keep in mind that AI models are constantly evolving and these disruptions can be defeated in the end. however, it costs time, money and resources for the companies that own these genAI models. this is why Glaze and Nightshade are game changers and why using them isn’t pointless, even when they do get defeated in the end. while genAI models are constantly evolving, so are Glaze and Nightshade
Nightshade and Glaze your art. you put time and labor into all of that, and you absolutely have the right to protect yourself
a little update
I’m not dead, I’m still checking the internet every day but I’ve taken a break from posting art online. I haven’t stopped creating art at all, I’ve simply lost interest in publishing it online for now
however, I’ll def be back for art fight though!

EDIT: As some users have already pointed out in the tags, opening the images in new tabs to zoom in will reveal whether theyβre real or AI generated in the URL. Proceed with caution. If you accidentally spoiled yourself just say youβve seen the image before and move on to a new one.
EDIT 2: Reblogs have been disabled as the survey has ended.
the process of creating art is what makes it art. meaning is engendered into every decision made while bringing a concept to life. even the most minor and arbitrary choices - the color of a pixel, the placement of a line, a choice of punctuation, a note in a song - are made by a person whose lived experiences drove them to make that choice. that meaning doesn't have to be complex or revelatory; often it's as simple as a person subconsciously choosing what they like best in the moment. art does not have to be deep, or even "good" to be meaningful. it just has to have humanity in it
Thinking of taking my mom on a cruise.
She’s been through a lot in the last 24 hours.
Anyone wanna commission me? :)
Email iubworks.contact@gmail.com if you want to help me treat my mom! ❤️
Winter is coming, so if you want good art at reasonable (actually, low) prices ($300-400 for similar quality) you can have it now. Later, I will either not be able to draw in Photoshop and will be forced to switch to drawing on the iPad, or I will work from a coworking space.
Last winter, as a result of attacks on the energy infrastructure of Ukraine by the Russians, blackouts lasted up to 2-3 days, and the electricity per day was barely enough to charge power banks. The same is expected this winter. Some co-working spaces have generators, but this will affect the prices of art. So if you want such an illustration with one or more characters, you can write to me now :)
I can also paint stickers for you (20 each, 100 for 6) and there are many other options for a lower price
Oh, and even though I need the money, I'm willing to give a discount for interesting projects, so feel free to contact me with questions
