Say it with me kids.

If its not worth writing its not worth reading.

If its not worth drawing its not worth seeing.

If its not worth someone saying it its not worth hearing.

Just because some techbro made a calculator spit out images, or tv scripts, novellas or mimic the voices of your favorite characters doesn’t mean it’s not just a really complicated calculator that runs off mass theft.

The (Personal) Is (Political)

~7 hours, Dall-E 3 via Bing Image Creator, generated under the Code of Ethics of Are We Art Yet?

Or, Dear Microsoft and OpenAI: Your Filters Can't Stop Me From Saying Things: An interactive exercise in why all art is political and game of Spot The Symbols

A rare piece I consider Fully Finished simply as a jpeg, though I may do something physical with it regardless. "Director commentary" below, but I strongly encourage you to go over this and analyze it yourself before clicking through, then see how much your reading aligns with my intent.

Elements I told the model to add and a brief (...or at least inexhaustive) overview of why:

Anime style and character figures - Frequently associated with commercial "low" art and consumer culture, in East Asia and the English-speaking world alike, albeit in different ways - justly or otherwise. There is frequently an element of racism to the denigration of anime styles in the west; nearly any American artist who has taken formal illustration classes can tell you a story of being told that anime style will only hinder them, that no one will hire them if they see anime, or even being graded more harshly and scrutinized for potential anime-esque elements if they like anime or imply that they may like anime - including just by being Asian and young. On the other hand, it is true that there is a commercial strategy of "slap an anime girl on it and it will sell". The passion fans feel for these characters is genuine - and it is very, very exploitable. In fact, this commercialization puts anime styles in particular in a very contentious position when it comes to AI discussions!

Dark-skinned boy with platinum and pink [and blue] hair - Racism and colorism! They're a thing, no matter how much the worst people in the world want you to think they're long over and "critical race theory" is the work of evil anti-American terrorists! I chose his appearance because I knew that unless I was incredibly lucky, I would have to fight with this model for multiple hours to get satisfactory results on this point in particular - and indeed I did. It was an interesting experience - what didn't surprise me was how much work it took me to get a skin color darker than medium-dark tan; what did surprise me was that the hair color was very difficult to get right. In anime art, for dark skin to be matched with light hair and eyes is common enough to be...pretty problematic. Bing Image Creator/Dall-E, on the other hand, swings completely in the opposite direction and struggles with the concept of giving dark-skinned characters any hair color OTHER than black, demanding pretty specific phrasing to get it right even 70% of the time. (I might cynically call this yet another illustration against the pervasive copy-paste myth...) There is also much to say about the hair texture and facial features - while I was pleased to see that more results than I expected gave me textured hair and/or box braids without me asking for it, those were still very much in the minority, and I never saw any deviation from the typical anime facial structures meant to illustrate Asian and white characters. Not even once!

Pink and blue color palette - Our subject is transgender. Bias self-check time: did you make that association as quickly as you would with a light-skinned character, or even Sylveon?

Long hair, cute clothes, lots of accessories - Styling while transmasc is a damned-if-you-do, damned-if-you-don't situation, doubly so if you're not white. In many locations, the medical establishment and mainstream attitude demands total conformity to the dominant culture's standard conventional masculinity, or else "revoking your man card" isn't just a joke meant to uphold the idea that men are "better" than women, but a very real threat. In many queer communities, especially online, transmascs are expected to always be cute femboys who love pink (while transfems are frequently degraded and seen as threats for being butch), and being Just Some Guy is viewed as inherently a sign of assimilationism at best and abusiveness at worst. It is an eternal tug-of-war where "cuteness" and ornamentation are both demanded and banned at the same time. Black and brown people are often hypermasculinized and denied the opportunity to even be "cute" in the first place, regardless of gender. Long hair and how gender is read into it is extremely culture-dependent; no matter what it means to you, if anything, the dominant culture wherever you are will read it as it likes.

Trophies and medals - For one, the trans sports Disk Horse has set feminism back by nearly 50 years; I'm barely a Real History-Remembering Adult and yet I clearly remember a time when the feminist claim about gender in sports was predominantly "hey, it's pretty fucked up that sports are segregated by sex rather than weight class or similar measures, especially when women's sports are usually paid much less and given weirdly oversexualized uniforms," but then a few loud living embodiments of turds in the punch bowl realized that might mean treating trans people fairly and now it's super common for self-proclaimed feminists - mostly white ones - to claim that the strongest woman will still never measure up to the weakest man and this is totally a feminist statement because they totally want to PROTECT women (with invasive medical screenings on girls as young as 12 to prove they're Really Women if they perform too well, of course). For two, Black and brown people are stereotyped as being innately more sporty, physically strong, and, again, Masculine(TM) than others, which frequently intersects with item 1...and if you think it only affects trans women, I am sorry my friend but it is so much worse and more extensive than you think.

Hearts - They mean many things. Love. Happiness. Cuteness. Social media engagement?

TikTok - A platform widely known and hated around these parts for its arcane and deeply regressive algorithm; I felt it deserved to be name/layout/logodropped for reasons that, if they're not clear already, should become so in the final paragraph.

Computers, cameras and cell phones - My initial specification was that one of the phones should be on Instagram and another on TikTok, which the model instead chose to interpret as putting a TikTok sticker on the laptop, but sure, okay. They're ubiquitous in the modern day, for better and for worse. For all the debate over whether phones and social media are Good For Us or Bad For Us, the fact of the matter is, they seem to be a net positive-to-neutral, whose impacts depend on the person - but they do still have major drawbacks. The internet is a platform for conspiracy theories and pseudoscience and dangerous hoaxes to spread farther than ever before. Social media culture leaves many people feeling like we're always being watched and every waking moment of our lives must be Perfect - and in some senses, we are always being watched these days. Digital privacy is eroding by the day, already being used to enforce all the most unjust laws on the books, which leads to-

Pigs - I wrote the prompt with the intention that it would just be a sticker on the laptop, but instead it chose to put them everywhere, and given that I wanted to make a somewhat stealthy statement about surveillance, especially of the marginalized...thanks for that, Dall-E! ;)

Alligators - A counter to the pigs; a short-lived antifascist symbol after...this.

Details I did not intend but love anyway:

The blue in the hair - I only prompted for platinum and pink in the hair, but the overall color palette description "bled" over here anyway, completing the trans flag, making it even more blatant, and thus even more effective as a bias self-check.

The Macbook - I only specified a laptop. Hilariously ironic, to me, that a service provided through Bing interpreted "laptop" as "Macbook" nearly every time. In my recent history, 22 out of 24 attempts show, specifically, a Macbook. Microsoft v. OpenAI divorce arc when? ;) But also, let us not forget Apple's role in the ever-worsening sanitization of the internet. A Macbook with a TikTok sticker (or, well, a Tiikok sticker - recognizable enough) - I can think of little more emblematic of one of the main things I was complaining about, and it was a happy accident. Or perhaps an unhappy one, considering what it may imply about Apple's grip on culture and communications.

Which brings me to my process:

Generated over ~7 hours with Dall-E 3 through Bing Image Creator - The most powerful free tool out there for txt2img these days, as well as a nightmare of filters and what may be the most disgustingly, cloyingly impersonal toxic positivity I've ever witnessed from a tool. It wants to be Art(TM), yet it wants to ban Politics(TM); two things which are very much incompatible - and so, I wanted to make A Controversial Statement using only the most unflaggable, innocuous elements imaginable, no matter how long it took.

All art is political. All life is political. All our "defaults" are cultural, and therefore political. Anything whatsoever can be a symbol.

If you want all art to be a substance-free "look at the pretty picture :)" - it doesn't matter how much you filter, buddy, you've got a big storm coming.

What makes an artist? (Clue: not this)

So I saw this yesterday, and now bouncing around my mind is how revealing those fake 'notes' are as to the psychology of fake ai scammers.

For context a guy entered an ai piece into a book cover contest, and then supplied his psd file as 'proof' it was original art and not ai generated, but was outed immediately by artists who dug through the psd and noticed things like layer names being in the format of discord username_midjourney_prompt,

subsequently, searching for his discord username, (midjourney generations happen on public and private discord servers, public generations are merely a keyword search away) only to find hundreds of generated assets matching the elements seen in the ai art piece.

Above: hundreds of generated assets, and the character seen in his final piece, in his discord midjourney generations.

But let's look at these 'notes.'

This is a fake 'sketch' layer where he painted over the ai generated piece to try and reverse engineer a sketch, a common effort by ai scammers which always looks super obvious to artists since generally a sketch is not just a more messily painted version of the final with no dimensional or structural changes whatsoever (why the concept of a progressively changing sketch is alien to these guys will be addressed momentarily)

To the side of the fake sketch, he scribbled 'download brush for hair?' Well first off if you can paint a human figure in any amount of detail you do not need to download a brush to synthesise hair, but I think this was simply word association hair + brush. Then we have a note below it, 'download smoke elements' with smoke crossed out like a 7 year old writing an essay, and replaced with 'grunge.' Needless to say, artists don't usually think in these terms of specifically of downloading elements needed, maybe searching for refs, that idea of downloading alone is very ai art thief behaviour, but to dig into the behaviour behind the faux note with 'smoke' crossed out a little more. So any person writing a digital note in an image file can simply use the eraser tool to erase an incorrectly written note, and rewrite it. He either is unaware of the eraser tool (like top 3 basic tools even microsoft paint has) or, (possibly both) it shows something in his thought patterns. When making a 'mistake,' even a fake one, he crosses out the mistake instead of trying to fix it. This is part of the root of why these people will never make art, because their base psychology is simply 'no mistakes, get it right the first time' which is precisely why the mcdonalds instant generated art is so appealing and addictive to them. And I'm sure they tried to draw once, did not instantly produce a masterpiece, and threw their pencils away in disgust at the 'blessed' 'talented' artists who they presume, have the same lack of dedication and passion as them and would not create unless it was for the same instantaneous gratification and approval they desire. They say as much themselves whenever they defend ai.

The reality: Art is not the art of making, it's the art of fixing. It's the art of adjusting something hundreds or thousands of times until it is what you want it to be. Unless you are fascinated by the process of adjusting and fixing, you will never make art of any kind. And a final note, that shitty 'palette' on the side makes no sense since, yet again, top 3 art tools in microsoft paint includes the colour dropper, so if you want to reuse a particular colour you simply use the colour dropper. This man is not even familiar with the most basic art program settings yet wants to larp as a digital artist, to the point of trying to gain acclaim by winning art contests. He has obviously vanished offline as soon as all this was revealed, I hope many more ai 'artists' are shamed off the internet in a similar way.

Stained glass

Upon Pariah Dark’s second defeat, his keep fell away.

The Turbulent, that realm so stained in his shadow, grew bright with something more than light, as the lair crumbled and bent into something beautiful.

The realm had deposed him, and as his influence faded, Darkness turned into ice, stones turned into snow. And all these material wove themselves a castle around ethereal glass panes.

The infinite realms painted image after image, the same picture in a thousand different lights. The same ghost that it had chosen to take Pariah’s throne.

Alas, there were few that understood the eye of the world, few that could understand who she wanted.

All they had were pictures, stained in glass.
