And literally four days later from this story Open AI admits what we all know to he true.

That when a model generates bullshit, that’s no flaw, that’s just how it works.

Thanks Leo! I was struggling a bit there, trying not to overdo it but secretly wanting to. Glad to hear it reads well!

A massive creature with multiple reddish, fleshy and bony limbs, flies above a crowd cheering on it. Its face is human-like, and small in comparison. Above its head sits a halo emitting several rays from its centre. Its wings are formed by an indefinite number of thin limbs. Most people in the crowd below are raising their arms in adoration, and some of them are missing parts of their body. The sky is bright orange with greenish, ominous clouds.

A horned and almost entirely covered creature stands in the middle of the picture. Frayed layers flow around its body, kind of disintegrating as they move. A dark face with bright eyes is barely visible. Behind it, we see a stony and almost organic setting in mostly cool colours. In the bottom of the frame, we see a small character looking at the giant creature, standing on an organic-looking pathway.

A white-ish, mannequin-like character stands atop a cliff in a barren, rocky landscape. Right next to it, there’s an altar kind of structure, with fire lit in the centre. All around, we see huge formations reminiscent of hands and fingers, surrounding a dry pathway leading towards the background.

Beautiful vibe, love the limited palette and how this feels both classic and modern at the same time.

Digital illustration in the style of a vintage storybook. A pale humanoid figure wearing a red cape is in the middle of a dark forest. The trees surrounding her have circular patterns carved into their bark. She stands on the edge of a pit that is filled with a tangled mass of worm-like creatures. Below the illustration reads "The worms wriggled endlessly in the pit."

Digital art of two women gently holding onto one another. Both women are missing their faces. A reddish-orange tangled mass of organic material flows out from where their faces should be and connects them together.

Drawing of a man, bleeding and pierced with arrows, cloaked and bent over on a snowy ground, covered mostly by ominous fog. He is peering out through the shadows of his hood, and his eyes are glowing. Silhouettes of wolves stand on the horizon with similarly glowing eyes. Text over top reads: Alt Text Only Dark art share.

The focus of the illustration is massive cocoon-like formation made of gnarled branching shapes with a warm, eye-shaped light in the centre. In the foreground, a thick “branch” where a character is standing goes towards the background. The atmosphere is mostly blue and hazy, with some warm light particles floating around.

A tryptich of bony/organic shapes, resembling parts of modified human-like bodies.

Hi Aimee, congrats on all those followers! I love my fantasy with a dark aura, so that's what I try to do in my spare time (or if I land a project in that vein, I wouldn't complain). Here are a few samples of my work!

Art calms us, connects us, and gives us purpose. It heals our bodies, minds, and communities. More than that, it’s an act of rebellion, a tool for hope, and a legacy that outlasts us all.

Artists are losing work, wages, and hope as bosses and clients embrace AI Visual artists, illustrators and graphic designers share their stories about how AI is being used to lower wages, degrade work and even replace it altogether, in this installment of AI Killed My Job.

Freelance illustration gigs drying up. Ad agencies using Midjourney instead of hiring human artists. Costume design turned over to AI wholesale. Good work vanishing.

These are the stories of working visual artists, who describe losing jobs, wages, and hope as their clients and bosses embrace AI.

This is such a cool fanart, not only it feels like a great hommage to the original, but also builds on it by adding an extra layer creating something new and fresh!

More musings from the Deity series. Always wanted to paint a sphinx of some sort but never have, they’ve always fascinated me. So why not make one for the series (or several actually). The anatomy was a fun design challenge, thanks for looking!
