... nah, actually this sucks.
I'm definitely not the first one to do this and I won't be the last but... I think this time I might actually be done with this site, because of all the AI nonsense. It's not like deviantArt is the only place using my stuff for AI. It's just the only such place with an unusable interface. Sorry. :XD: Hope I can keep up with my site and a few other places that I'll link to there. AI image generation (often called "AI art") is unregulated garbage. Years ago I made a post that I was happy deviantArt took a stance against it, but nowadays I'm just disappointed in them, though not surprised. I don't hate technology; hell, I almost got into an AI field because the algorithms are/were really fascinating. But if content scrapers have no respect for intellectual property, no rational person has any respect for AI tools who use that content. Like I've seen and respected AI tools that gather content with integrity and consent. I still think algorithms are neat. And there's a nonzero chance
... that could've sucked!
I log on every few months contemplating whether or not to do an art backlog update. When the AI announcement went up about everyone consenting to usage in the algorithm by default or whatever, I drummed up a "well this is my last journal post ever!" entry in my head. But I thought, no this is absurd. There are people paying for this site; they HAVE to do some sort of backpedal else this site is going to implode on itself anyway. And uh, looks like they did? So that's nice. Still stupid they even thought a significant chunk wanted to donate all their intellectual property once held dear by this site. I think that's what this whole debacle boils down to. It's always so interesting to watch divides between artists and programmers, as someone who dabbles in both. I've seen AI recognition algorithms in their earlier (maybe not earliest) stages, and most of the uses are all the same: you feed it zillions of examples and eventually it figures out what's what. Art AI has to be similar, but
... making my own milestones
I have a personal site for my art! No social media accounts required to enjoy! https://www.papersak.com I will still post to my other accounts since... I mean there's a 0% chance anyone will find the site otherwise. If I keep posting, maybe I can boost it to 5%. The site will have my "good" art; maybe deviantArt will remain my archive for uh... ancient relics. I say that, but it looks like I came across one or two other "art goals" I had. They're silly goals not really based on skill or work, really more based on social media. 1) I got hate mail on tumblr the other week and 2) someone put my art on Zerochan, haha. Frankly, I was hoping both would happen and don't mind either; thanks, anonymous slices of cheese bread for the ego boost. Less thanks to the hate mail dude (though I don't know, maybe they were actually asking if I was immortal and phrased it weird! can't clarify, person was anonymous, oh well.) As for other indications I "made it big" on social media, still waiting on
... it's been 1000 years
Have I done that title already? Ah. Well, all I know is, there hasn't been another site where I... just put up art. Other social media has been fun for a while but always becomes a clogged mess, even in my own blogs. You can't search everything or scroll through art easily because it's a bunch of memes and things. I think even though I barely log in here anymore, I like just having my stuff up portfolio style. WI'm at the point in life where it doesn't feel like a lot changes except my age and health. Yippee. I mean there's that whole pandemic thing but that's affecting eeeeverybody, I don't have more to add (which is fortunate in a sense; haven't personally got covid). If you got any low-cholesterol recipes, I'll take them. Especially vegetables. Internet recipes that are just like cottage cheese every day just get depressing. ^^; What was it, Reddit of all random places marginally improved my poor commenting skills, or rather reassured me that there are other people just as

I feel that. I haven't really done anything serious drawing wise in so long.
