CultOfStrawberry

I dabble in various things but am mainly an author, my AO3 can be found here... https://archiveofourown.org/users/StrawberryCatBeans I write various things - original, fanfics, drabbles, novels, genfic, erotica, etc... (zero AI in my writing, unlike this silly little gallery)

I do have my original gallery/account here at @Spleef where I put my art/drawings/etc. I decided I didn't want AI slop mixed in with my art so decided to use my Cultofstrawberry account to dump my AI slop. Sometimes I update my Spleef account with one of my drawings, but I mainly use Tumblr nowadays to showcase my art.

This profile/gallery are just for faffing around with the AI on DA, some of the pictures that come up are pretty cool though I would never claim that I "created" them, nor would I ever call these images *art*. It's kind of like a dollmaker, although in this case you don't quite know what you might end up with when you put in a prompt. Please don't take this gallery seriously, I am just having fun and have all the images here marked as AI.

I do like playing with the various options and seeing what kind of pics come out, some of them do look cool and inspire me as far as character designs or scene ideas go, but that's as far as AI images should be used for and IDGAF about mistakes in the pictures because after all, it's just AI. I don't claim any of the images in this gallery is art and nor should anyone else using AI either.

If you're looking for a cover design for your book or illustration for your project, et. al, please support real artists and commission them. There's no shame if you're unable to draw/design yourself, but if you're going to be creating and selling a product (such as your book) please respect your readers/viewers by supporting real artists.

In that vein, using chatgpt or other AI software for writing is also a lazy and shitty thing to do. I've seen AI-created novels on Amazon and Goodreads among other places, and it's embarrassing.

AI (in any form) is NOT art - no matter what anyone says. Some of it can be fun to look at or spur inspiration, but it is not art, and should never be called (much less marketed) as such.
