I hope AI crashes and burns like NFTs and the metaverse and in a year's time we'll all be laughing about how dumb it was

FireflySummers’ Guide to Arguing Against the Use of AI Image Generators
(AKA I hate AI image generators so fucking much that I published a whole ass academic article on it)
Read the Paper: Art in the Machine: Value Misalignment and AI "Art"
Citation: Allred, A.M., Aragon, C. (2023). Art in the Machine: Value Misalignment and AI “Art”. In: Luo, Y. (eds) Cooperative Design, Visualization, and Engineering. CDVE 2023. Lecture Notes in Computer Science, vol 14166. Springer, Cham. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-43815-8_4
The purpose of the original paper and now this post is the following:
Provide at least one academic article that you can cite. (Full paper + citation available below)
Make explicit community values that have previously been implicit, in order to better examine your own perceptions of the online artist community, and where you sit within it.
Provide rebuttals to common pro-AI talking points, with the intention of shutting down the conversation and reclaiming the narrative. 
What this paper and post cannot do:
Act as a sole authority about the online artist community and its values. We are not a monolith, and it is up to you to think critically about what, exactly, you want to take away from this discussion.
Provide a way to convince AI Evangelists that what they’re doing is wrong and bad and needs to stop. You will never convince them. Again, focus on shutting them down and reclaiming the narrative.
Final Disclaimer: I'm a very fallible researcher who is still very much learning how to do academia. I cannot speak for the entirety of the online artist community or fanartist community. We all have different lived experiences. I have done my best to include diverse voices; however if you have concerns or critiques, I am open to hearing them.
If you show up to debate in favor of AI image generators, you will be automatically blocked.

If you have read this far, thank you very much. I hope that you have found a constructive lens for approaching the war with AI image generators, as well as a new tool for shutting down debate and reclaiming the narrative.

Remember: if you're afraid of AI art there are specific tools for poisoning your portfolio. Don't let AI bros destroy our community, they win when they chase artists off a platform as much as they win when they steal art. And more so, it hurts ai more to poison art then to remove it, it's like giving it negative art.
Please poison your art. It's the only way if that tumblr deal is real.

Some shameless POS literally used AI to steal my friend's animated film
I usually don't post stuff like this but this shit's insane and downright insulting. I graduated from Ringling College of Art and Design in 2022, a pretty well known animation school in the US, and every animation student on their final year of college has to make an animated film for our final thesis. If you have any idea of the animation making process, you would know that making an entire film by yourself in one year is batshit insane and extremely exhausting, to the point where I'm still feeling the effects of the process on my physical and mental wellbeing 2 years after I graduated. Once more, my friends and I did it during the covid period, which was another level of hell. I was literally watching my grandfather's funeral while working in the labs at 2am because I couldn't fly home to attend it because we had to make this film. This film was our lifeblood, the culmination of 4 years of hell at school which was suppose to be our gateway into the industry. Tldr, it's fucking difficult to do, especially on your own.
So imagine 2 years later and I wake up to a bunch of messages on our alumni chat where a dear friend of mine posted a link to a tiktok video of someone literally stealing her entire film and superimpose it shot by shot and claim it as their own ad for their AI game. As animators, we aren't unaware of people stealing our films and reposting them elsewhere. Heck my own film "The End" was stolen from our school vimeo and posted on tiktok BEFORE IT WAS EVEN OFFICIALLY RELEASED, and that tiktok got hundreds of thousands of views while a year after my own real release my film is still struggling in the thousands.
But this
This is a fucking new low.
Can you imagine? A fresh graduate going through literal blood sweat and tears to make a film on their own that is so important to their future in the industry, to get them a job, with a film that represents a part of themselves to the world, just used as fodder for some stupid tech assholes? It's infuriating. It's insulting. It's literally a big fuck you to the hundreds of students who spent their lives toiling to make these films from the heart who are just desperate to get into the industry.
The animation industry right now is in complete shambles. People are graduating from animation schools with thousands of dollars in dept only to be met with a wasteland of minimum wage and lack of funding and competing for jobs with people who have already been in the industry for years affected by the massive layoffs not only in the movie but also the gaming industries. These films we make for our thesis aren't just films made for fun, they represent our lifeblood, our only opportunity to get a job as a graduate in this sea of hell. If you didn't make a good film, chances are you're never even stepping foot in the industry ever. It's our golden ticket that we would put thousands of hours through, sleepless nights and pushing through no matter the circumstances of sickness and pain it caused us.
And now some dumb fucking AI using dickbags see that and decide it's worth nothing.
Here's a link to my friend's real film. Please go watch it and support her work. I'm not even gonna link the other piece of shit tiktok because I don't want that video to even get a single extra view but here's a recording my friend made so you can see this malarkey side by side.
It's heartbreaking to see my friend's film barely getting any views while the stolen garbage is already in the thousands. I hope the person who stole my friend's work and made that shit dies in a fiery car crash and go straight to hell.
I cannot emphasise how we must not let this shit continue to happen. We're living in a fucking dystopia and unless we do something about it and support those affected by it it's only going to get worse. They're already expanded from stealing people's still art to stealing people's entire films, if we don't stop this nothing we create would ever be safe.

Just had a look at all the artists names who were used for Midjoureny AI. It's over 4000 names, 4000 people who have had their art stolen as "data".

Buenos dias, amigos. Is a wonderful day to cause the downfall of AI! We all hate it, so let's work together
I got this idea to draw the most fucked up warped shit ever and post it, purposely letting AI scape it. I can't use Nightshade so I'll do what I can. If anyone else would like to contribute please do!
Fellow artists, let's poison our wells.
Edit: fair warning this might not work at all, but I'm having fun with it and if enough people join in it means AI will have less actual art to scrape from (on Tumblr at least)
Edit 2: I'll add a list of names on this pinned post. Any name mentioned has argued in support of AI or made the false claim it doesn't invade copyright or steal from us. We can defend the good parts of AI when its not being used to steal from us and replace us. Until then, we only protest in this house. DO NOT HARRASS OR ENGAGE WITH LISTED USERS this list is here for all us normal people to block, not attack!
@/Vergess ("debunking another stupid anti ai post from people who can't be bothered to actually learn about it")
@/demise-of-soul (literally said stealing art was good?)

AI "artists" will look an actual artist, who has put years of practice, energy and time into their craft, dead in the eye, and go," We're the same!"
No, you're not. A person who has spent actual time improving their craft and a person who paid 5 dollars to an AI art generator are not on the same level.
If your only medium is AI, then YOU ARE NOT AN ARTIST.

I just love how we collectively reject and hate ai art because we know there's nothing human about it and henceforth it shouldn't be accepted. :D

Why would you want this? Why do you want people to endanger you or your life or your children? AI has made much worse than this. It can make CP and zoo content. It can make false rape accusations impossible to prove false. It's not just about stealing from small artists anymore. It needs to be stopped.

This is purely for protest purposes. These images are not real and are meant to show how the tiniest bit of editing skills can ruin someone's life or cause a lot of issues. Please do not edit these photos to look real or imply they are real

Just saw a post from a disabled person arguing that AI art is a good tool to help disabled artists. and it made me so furious I simply HAVE to say something.
It does not matter if it helps someone if its actively hurting others in the process. Someone using AI art as a disability aid actively hurts other disabled artists like me and many of my friends and mutuals who's art is routinely and unethically being scraped to feed AI's "learning" and is trying to steal from us one of the few avenues we actually have for work.
Art and disabled ppl have existed since basically the beginning of human history and disabled ppl by extension have been finding ways to make art for just as long. AI is definitely an easier solution, but its not the only one. So if you think its necessary it says more about your willingness to make something less hard for yourself, even if it hurts others. Being disabled is hard, I know it is. It can and often does get in the way of me being an artist. But I would rather never create again than use AI to "help" me when the pain is too bad and the energy is too low to make anything myself.
AI art isn't art. you aren't creating anything. You're using keywords to mash stolen images together until something slightly intelligible comes out. It requires none of the time, skill, or care that art takes. You cannot pour your heart and soul into AI art. And any perceived love or attention to detail or love for the craft that's seen in AI art is care stolen from others. It's not yours.
If you like AI art, think disabled ppl need AI art, or think its okay that disabled artists are being exploited and stolen from for other disabled artists to "create" go fuck yourself. I'm tired of having this argument and the fact that some of our own are helping fuel shitty tech bro rhetoric is infuriating.

I am convinced that people who use ai are either ignorant of the way it exploits people or just plain assholes. A well-known voice actor got bullied off Twitter for asking that an ai cover using her voice without her consent be taken down. And I’ll be fair, it seems the person who posted it originally did take it down, but people were PISSED that they weren’t able to enjoy this woman’s voice being stolen and manipulated without her knowledge, so they harassed her and reuploaded the video multiple times.
Do people not see what a massive privacy violation is it to have a machine copy someone’s voice and make it sound like they said or sang things they never did? This technology allows deepfakes to ruin lives. It poses the risk of shitty people attempting to steal a voice actor’s voice and use it in official content because it’s “good enough” and they don’t have to pay anyone.
It is exploitive and wrong and bad. There is a massive moral failing here. I wish all ai bros a very get fucked, and all ai companies that built models that can only function by exploiting people a very go bankrupt.
