Update: Loud and clear. AI asset submissions will be rejected. I am sorry and do feel a bit bad for not using your animations that took a while to render, but eh, it doesn’t feel right.
Hi, here is another poll since it is pretty divisive. I wish for you to vote on it here: https://strawpoll.com/poy9kNOeDgJ. I wish to gauge the room and take the temperature of the audience.
I have experimented a bit with training an AI model on my own artworks for Pony and Illustrious. I have received a few animations for Allie and Emmie’s groping based on this model. In the past, I have been open to asset submissions.
Here are some rough mockups on a test map of how it would look like along with my old animations:
These would have a random chance to play when fully nude.
The issue now is that it clashes quite significantly with the older animations I’ve created around 2016-2017 and is more refined in its rendering than would really be humanly possible.
My personal opinion on the matter of AI slop ( even trained on my own artworks ) is that it lacks a human touch that I think will be pretty off-putting and it is very inconsistent. It is able to do things quickly, however.
As a tool, I see the utility in fundamentally being able to create an assistant which can handle tasks. On the other hand, I am giving up some of my creative vision of the project as I am not completely in control of it. I have valued keeping my specific vision of the project, but I’ve also allowed other people to submit assets in the past and have compromised on this consistency before. It also feels a little ungrateful to snub my nose at what probably took a long while to render.
Would you like me to use such assets? Would you want me to maintain a strict policy to exclude them? Make sure to vote and feel free to leave a comment with your feelings on the matter.
