74. You should label your AI-generated images to avoid misleading people. And see this

thread for what real artists, professional artists of all types including artists whose work was stolen to train AI, think of generative AI:

I applaud you for wanting to be creative.

I applaud you for having ideas you'd like to express through visual art.

But using generative AI does not make you creative, or an artist. In fact, it wastes time you could use learning to paint or draw, whether manually or digitally. And the AI tools you use were developed by companies exploiting real artists' work for profit.

People on DU are aware of why artists are fighting uses of generative AI that exploit and threaten them.

Which is why you will not get the sort of unanimous applause here that you'd get, say, on a forum for other AI enthusiasts who don't care about real artists' concerns.

But the dislike of AI you see here is not "nasty" as you're complaining. It's motivated by revulsion at the inhuman (and in my opinion anti-human) AI tools you've chosen to use.

And, I think, by your not being honest in your OPs about "your" art work having been mostly done by AI.
