@davidrevoy @smoi
Je m'en suis rendu compte à la 3ème case, et comme Smoi, je suis tout de suite retourné au début. Ça marche bien !

@davidrevoy

but yet, photographers and 'collage' artists did have to pay their dues to the paintings they were using...

Which is something that LLMs are not doing.

And we're just considering painting, here, not MUSIC, and writing, and coding.

Which is degrading the quality of everything - like using cardboard and calling it meat.

@davidrevoy Who are you, warrior that fooled AI?

[ska@social.treehouse.systems]

@davidrevoy The meta level of this comic sparks joy in me.

[lidsel@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@davidrevoy Is it sad that one of my motivators to finally get a new PC was that I'm tired of Glaze taking 50 minutes to run on my shitty old GPU? I know it doesn't do much, but I want the images I post to be just that slightly bit shittier as training data. Fortunately have never been mistaken for AI (only told that I'm equally uninspired).

@davidrevoy I love how you poisoned your art though, the human way

AI wishes it can be this good

[sylvhem@eldritch.cafe]

@june @davidrevoy Je suis bien d’accord !

@davidrevoy

Real art. Real satire. Real human.

@lidsel Here I think Glaze/Nightshade is meh, I'm talking about it on https://framapiaf.org/@davidrevoy/117124006373289208 ; but I get the "slightly bit shittier"; and I'm sure it's effective for at least that.
I find also the list of glitch and all the filters of GMIC (already bundled in Krita) really cool; especially in "degrade" category, I used them a lot for this comic, and I'll explore for more.
Edit: good luck for the quest of a new PC in this economy! I had to change a 2TB harddrive this week, and ... the prices.

[lidsel@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@davidrevoy Yeah, I never cared that much about protecting against style replication (who's targeting me anyway), it's just out of spite.

I got the computer, finished assembling it last week. Got the RAM, SSD and GPU at the end of last year, so I avoided the worst of the price hike. But yeah, the HDD situation is worrying - WD sold 100% of their capacity through 2030. I'm considering stocking up while it's still possible to get them. It's going to be a tough few years.

[squiggles@mspsocial.net]

@davidrevoy no matter the medium I always love expressions where the advice is slowly incorporated into the style of the advice. I've done it with writing and it's so fun to see it with digital painting

[theyofhishirts@glammr.us]

@davidrevoy True skill at work, to render a result heinous to a machine trying to scrape it and train on it to replicate it, and yet is entirely beautiful to the human eye that beholds it. The green on Cepper in the final panel produces a color and design that I find entirely fashionable, if not her preferred black. The roughness, angularity, and coloration of the later panels still works entirely well for being visually appealing and telling the story. Well done, technically and artistically.

[me@social.jlamothe.net]

@davidrevoy I love that even your deliberately "bad" art still looks better than my current best work.

[gemini0@labyrinth.zone]

@davidrevoy it's really genuinely so sad that people think your art is cocaine-generated, these are wonderful and i'm sorry people are like that

[golemwire@social.golemwire.com]

I was wondering about your rationale. I hope for you it works.

[golemwire@social.golemwire.com]

I see the spoonerism!
I thought Cepper was Pepper until I checked the alt text. Looks like a more grown-up version, now that I compare.
