support HUMAN artists, not AIā¼ļø
AI generated images are NOT art. art is CREATED, not GENERATED.
this is not just about taking jobs from artists (which is already a huge deal), itās also about devaluing art itself, turning it into mass-produced, empty and soulless content. itās heartbreaking to see AI stealing from real artists: from Studio Ghibli to smaller creators like us.
personally, we started our art journey by reinterpreting what we love: music, TV series, anime and transforming it into our vision inspired by the 90ās anime that we grew up with. when we create our illustrations, we try to capture the emotion and love we feel for the subject, aiming to tell a story with each drawing. ever since AI was created, we have had many people asking if our art is AI generated. honestly, itās heartbreaking every single time. for us, art is a deeply human experience that weāve been dedicating ourselves to for seven years. creating from nothing takes dedication, skill, and an emotional investment that, in our opinion, AI simply canāt capture.
youāve probably seen your feed flooded with AI generated images in a āStudio Ghibli styleā. trends like these reinforce the idea that art can be easily replicated and devalued. the future of artists is more uncertain than ever. we donāt know if in a few years weāll still be able to make a living from this, since many companies are adopting the mindset of āwhy should i pay someone for their well-earned work when a machine can do it for free in an instant?ā that mindset is the real problem: the way society is starting to perceive art.
art is essential to human life. many people realized this during the pandemic: what would we do without music, movies, books, that bring us comfort? art is more than just the final product. itās about the process, struggles, and personal growth that comes with it. when you create, you grow, learn, and challenge yourself. AI erases that, replacing it with instant and shallow replication. real art brings people together, evoking emotions and reminding us of what it means to be human.
relying on AI to make art isnāt innovation, itās avoiding the challenge of creating something meaningful. AI tools like these are being pushed as "the future," but what does that say about us? replacing human artistry with shallow, mass-produced content takes away humanity from art, do we really want to be part of a world where art is just another disposable product? what value do we place on creativity?
if youāve made it this far, it means you care about these issues. letās raise our voices together and speak up. donāt consume AI generated images. value and respect creativity. SUPPORT REAL HUMAN ARTISTS.
