Correction EVERYTHING evolves over time.
But most people fear change, hence why there are always factions of humans complaining or fighting all the time.

The irony is the quicker you embrace change, the further ahead of the game you are.
Using AI is a new acquired skill just as anything else.
When you see how accurate some of these AI prompts are, it’s like coding to get a particular picture outcome.

The quicker that natural artists learn this skill too, they will be 10 x grater than what they currently are and 100x greater than the avg. person who uses AI

@Walperion Music i read that quote from a famous artist, forgot who, it just sounded funny

It’s nothing like fan art at all. Fan art is when you take another intellectual properties characters or icons, and redraw it, in whatever style you want. Those characters and icons are protected by copyright. The art style that those characters or icons were drawn in, however, is not. It has already been ruled that art styles have no legal protection: https://creativecommons.org/2023/03/23/the-complex-world-of-style-copyright-and-generative-ai/

@Wholesale Ted What you are describing, sounds like fan art. Yes, you can be inspired, copy the images etc for anime, but it doesn’t mean you have a legal right to sell it. For example, I can be inspired by Mickey Mouse. I can draw a mouse, develop my own style and sell it. But if it ends up being too much like Mickey, Disney has every right to sue you.
