Dragon con remains undefeated.
ok that's just awesome
Could you include close ups of the signs or alt text?
Can anyone read the notes? :O
this will be my Halloween costume this year
Someone drawing Yusuke saying "we need to kill ai artist" is peak
play stupid games (in artist alley), win stupid prizes (like getting kicked out of artist alley)
I'd start putting pencils there in hopes the "artist" finally picks one up
The communal additions built up onto a single innocuous thing is such a Dragoncon move π
Another shrine!!
O think we saw another Cult being born.
BTW I very much love your borbs! Your booth made me smile every time I walked by.
Thank you!!
Absolutely thrilled to see a sticker from @karenhallionkenney.bsky.social on the sign, too π
"I like this dragon, but can you do it in purple?" Sure, "hands back a picture of a brown T-Rex"
i'd rather see them publicly executed for even using gen AI
This is good.
hook this to my veins
Close-up on the story note on the right?
The story: real artists complained. Art proved to be AI and he was asked to leave. He said βnoβ so the police were called to watch him while he packed his AI crap up. F him & F AI slop!
I'll take "How to be banned from DragonCon forever" for $500, Alex.
How did they prove it?
Just an educated guess but based on their other artworks online, theyβve never exhibited that level of detail before. All of a sudden they show up with hyperrealistic art that doesnβt resemble their skill level, but also the new work bears hallmarks of AI slop? Also maybe they just admitted it.
Was the woman who is claimed to be the "artist" on the website even there?
Only during set up on Thursday. The rest of the time it was her bf and mom, I guess.
Wow
Ha! It's like a roadside memorial. Someone buy dead flowers or something hideous.
DragonCon will create shrines for anything. We have created entire religions around a cardboard cutout of a fedex guy. Thereβs a memorial to a trash can that got moved over a decade ago. We cosplay as a retired carpet pattern.
I think we saw another Cult being born today. #UnderHisGooglyEye
The Cult of Fuck Around and Find Out
The power of actual artists, which everyone has potential to be! <3
The βcope, seetheβ got me good LOL
Hell yea
Could I share that photo?
//Nature is healing
was this at the Michigan state fair
No, dragon con.
good. get fucked AI grifters
LMAO THE YUSUKE!
Beautiful!
Ejection grafitti!
lol the replacement of 'art' with 'images' because it's inherently anti art
Fuck Ai
This is probably a good place to note that if you subscribe to @aimod.socialβ¬, it will automatically label all AI images, and even accounts that post AI imagery too frequently. Super helpful for me as I need to get new glasses.
hey, thanks! I had no idea this existed but I'll check it out.
Absolutely! I only discovered it a couple of weeks ago myself.
Just wanting to mention we don't do anything automatically :) Images are labeled manually after the team inspects user reports and make a decision.
Oh, WOW! Thank you for your hard work, and I'm happy to stand corrected. π
The empty table turned into an artwork. How ironic.
