Support artists not algorithms.

Traditional and digital artists require staunch support to persuade corporations and businesses from prioritizing profit over artistic integrity by embracing A.I./ generative artificial intelligence programs to create their content, and sensitize them on the destabilizing effect that this shift may cause in society.

As consumers, we have the power to uphold corporations and companies committed to employing traditional and digital artists for their creative endeavors. 

Through deliberate choices in our patronage, we can send a resounding message—one that champions human ingenuity and rejects the commodification of creativity through artificial intelligence.

Our actions can ensure the preservation of traditional and digital art forms.

What is a AI-Generated Image?

  • AI-generated art is created by artificial intelligence algorithms programmed to generate or manipulate visual content fished out of the web.

  • These algorithms collect and analyze millions of images available on the web without the owners' consent, learning patterns, replicating styles, and generating new images in a matter of seconds based on the images collected and stored in a database.

  • AI-generated art lacks the human touch and subjective interpretation characteristic of traditional and digital art and the process lacks the conscious intention and emotional depth of art created by artists.

The livelihood of millions of artists is at stake, as it's only a matter of time before companies and corporations opt to employ 'prompts artists' over actual artists. Think illustrators, fine artists, character designers, set designers, graphic designers, art directors, animators, visual effects artists, just to name a few.
