My art journey continues:

-

I used to think AI art was theft, I mean everyone hating on it couldn't be wrong could they?!

But then I did some digging and research into copyrighting and everything and then on top of that a lot of the time the images don't even generate right.

You have to tweak and modify them as an artist yourself.

It's great for resources and references and although some have 'taken images to train without consent' not all do and it breaks my heart when other small artists CHOOSE hate over knowledge, CHOOSE to hate on other artists and small businesses simply because they're following the stigma and stereotypes.

I use wirestock.

If I use it I credit it.

#noshamehere 

I won't be made to feel guilty about doing something through a generator that the input was consensual. Period.

Consent = permission= no theft.

I'm an author, blogger and an artist and I am going to be writing a book on navigating copyrights in this day and age.

It made sense to investigate the AI generator world and look at how copyright is more damaging these days than it should be.

Music you can't listen to it's constantly censored and the art world is censored enough.

You'd think real artists would want to educate themselves on this before opening their mouths but I can't blame them, I USED TO BE them.

Knowledge is the key and stereotypes and stigmas are definitely not factual and just another excuse to sabotage the 'little guy/gal'.

In my eyes that's NOT on and not ok.

I know I've taken a lot of heat with this AI content journey but it's simply a tool and I'm simply investigating and utilising it.

If you haven't looked into it then that's on YOU and you can keep your hate away because it cost me $120 to get access to key features and AI models for generation via wirestock.

As a disabled artist I hurt so much so it makes art easily accessible and why spend hours hurting myself for a piece that I could do exactly the same as a generated one but with a little editing?!

#chronicillnessawareness #disabledartistsmattertoo

So if you don't support AI you're actually against accessibility because that's one of the reasons I love AI as it makes various art available for those who have disabilities.

Hate me all you want but I'm not incorrect on this. 💯🙌🏼

It's a slap in the face for the disabled...

  ...when councils share and promote diversity and disability inclusion and awards when they themselves are abandoning and discriminating against disabled people. These deserve the award and have done amazingly but the way the council shares this news seems like they want to 'appear' like they care and support disabled people when in reality they don't. I responded: So why have they forgotten about the neurospicy and disabled individuals using the do it online form for Durham County Council? There needs to be a check box for the council to call people back if they're on the assistance list.  It's not hard to attach a check box that would automatically add a call back to the most vulnerable customers of bulky waste. I'm currently being discriminated against and can't do anything about it, if I get a fine I'm going to the news about the council taking my money and abandoning me with bulky waste cause I'm mobility impaired and can't move it a few in

Sad times at the RVI.

I got triggered today from this memory: When my bairn had leukemia, we were coming back from the hospital with all the fun things he created with his mam. Social services need reprimanded for their complete chaotic and sadistic behaviour and corruption but my son is healthy and alive and well now. They prevented me from seeing him in hospital then LIED to the court judge with cleverly worded paragraphs that would not explain that it was THEIR fault and instead implied we didn't care. I was LIVID!  I missed out on so much after being newly diagnosed with a disability myself and ending up in a wheelchair, and I had lost my business and everything, but that wasn't enough for the UK system. They had to harm this family and I believe in karma and the universe and my son KNOWS the truth and knows he is loved even if it did cause a divide in the family and my brother is estranged. People really do run with assumptions and SANDRA BARLOW if you're reading this you had no right to li

~New Chapters~ Connor has been a great support to me and we've had a lot of deep soul searching talks where we are working together on making our lives better. We've clashed and made mistakes but we're working together towards a more positive and brighter future for us both. I'm not easy to deal with sometimes, I struggle with my disabilities and have CPTSD etc and Connor has ADHD (which I also likely have) and having talked about the way we get hyper fixated etc we have found better ways of getting one another's attention so neither of us feel so alone or ignored. We both love one another and we've both been working on our own mental health and boundaries. So far I think we've had a lot of lessons learned and we can start again from a place of deeper understanding. That's what's important. I know I don't have to write or say anything but I know a lot of people that care about me may feel the need to be outspoken about this choice, please remembe
