Sounds like the start of a joke, right? Two scientists, an engineer, a detective, a lawyer, and an artist walk into a bar to help me become God.
We might not have found a beach for @ghostcat-cosplays’ Nona to definitely not eat sand at but we did find a nice little pond, that’s close enough right? Also as soon as we saw the big swing near St Pancras we knew August had to play on it 😂
Sorry to be this person, but I haven’t seen many others talking about it and I’m concerned by the positive reception it’s recieved.
The Muca/Art Nouveau Gideon and Harrow by Mariellavee that have been doing the rounds on the tlt fandom circuit are very much AI Generated.
Here are the pieces. You may zoom in at your own discretion, but I will post a few especially egregious segments.
Some zoomed in segments:
The smudging, the strange stray lines with no clear human intent behind them, the strange fingers of course, and that one buckle that almost looks to have been generated in the shape of letters.
The “artist” of course does not disclose anywhere in her original post or tags that the work is AI generated, and its clear from the comments and tags that many people are not realizing.
It’s clear Mariellavee drew over some parts to modify whatever the original generated piece looked like, but the meat of this piece is heavily ai.
This is not okay. The Locked Tomb is a beautiful piece of art, and the fandom contains so many fantastic and talented fan artists. I don’t want to see the community poisoned with this nonsense. Support real artists and real art.
An update to this: Mariellavee also deleted the comments I had left on her original post of the Gideon piece warning other fans that the work is AI, and she blocked me. She does not intend to address anything or take the work down, AND she is SELLING prints of these two pieces.
Please reblog/spread the word. There are thousands of reblogs and likes on those pieces that should have gone to real artists in the tlt community!
A TLT Creators for Gaza project is in the works. Please dm me if you would be interested in participating as an artist or a fic writer! We would be offering tiered commissions in exchange for donations to careforgaza :D
