I need everyone to see this ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE

[ghostgreen]

I’ve been reading A Song of Ice and Fire for the first time! Here’s some drawings I made while reading the first book. I’ve been craving medieval fantasy type stuff lately and it’s really hitting the spot. So many characters I want to draw, so little time …

*looks inside the official DeviantArt discord I'm part of* ru roh.

If you guys want the long and short of it, here ya go;

1: the automatic "Opt In" feature has nothing to do with "DreamUp". basically, AI generators have been using DeviantArt as a mine for its images without dA's permission. They have put an "opt in" option on all pictures on their site for these external AI sites. The setting is automatically set to "opt in" because that is literally the default as its always been. Automatic Opt-out is coming, they just need to tinker with it a little.

2: DreamUp is deviantArts Ai art generating program that only sources from deviantArt images that have the "opt in" feature turned on. However, the opt in feature is not directly tied to DreamUp in any way. DreamUp is just a new AI program that actually credits artists as its sources. It's a model dA has implemented to try and set a precedent as to how other AI art programs should work.

3: the people running the dA twitter are shit at communication and there are several mods crying in the discord because they TOLD THEM NOT TO WORD IT THIS WAY. and they ignored them and now there's a shit show.

the only reason I am not showing discord screenshots to back me up is because that is rude and the people in the channel did not consent to that sort of thing.

Reblogging to add;

You have ALWAYS been "opt in" to AI art generators... Without you or dA's permission.

dA is now giving you an option to turn it OFF.

But to put it as automatic off will take time to implement.

But that's that on that.

Do me a favour and reblog this post because as Pratchett said:

"a lie can run around the world before the truth can get its boots on"

and people LOVE to be outraged by things and believe everything is worse than it truly is.

do the kids know about googlewhacking. is it still even possible to googlewhack

[dingdongyouarewrong]

a googlewhack is a two-word google search term that reveals exactly one result. it was a sport of kinds in the early to mid 2000s! i first heard about doing it from the ttyl book series, which i used to love as a kid, and i did it for awhile when i was younger. it’s way harder now though! i’ve been trying to come up with one for a bit but this is the closest i could get, with 43
