I've been making my own art for 10 years now. it's been great. I went in with the whole goal of doing it for me—no matter what someone thinks or says, it is my own, and it should serve and satisfy me first. that's still the case, even here with ai art.
is it soulless slop with no meaning or depth? yes. does it arouse and get me heated? yes. that's why I make art in the first place, ai or not. are you disappointed? good. do you love it? good! there's no need for damage control. bad press is good press. I'm still going to be making normal, human-made art anyway, so if you don't want ai, just ignore it. it's on a different website anyway.
