I will be linking to several videos across several blogs about the situation of the AI Art and AI fakes situation over at the company called Deviantart. I am not a current or former employee. I have read about the website and have found several videos made by users of the Deviantart website saying how bad AI is really being deployed by the website to essentially replace "Small-time" creators on Deviantart. This should be an example as to how not to run a company and how not to run a website according to me and the content creators I have seen. You can find these videos on both YouTube and Invidious using the same link but with switched URL website names. Here are the links on Invidious to some of the video sources talking about how bad the community and company Deviantart is doing regarding AI at the current time: WHY ARTISTS HATE AI ART (AND WHY IT IS NEVER ETHICAL) https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=Jid6Pj17OBw DEVIANTART JUST BETRAYED ITS WHOLE COMMUNITY. (DREAM UP AI CONTROVERSY) https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=IGj_3OhMrAU DEVIANTART CANCELLED AGAIN OVER ITS NEW ADOPTABLES FEATURE https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=gfYdebTqyEU These videos should be a telling sign about the state of the website, Deviantart.
