if you think the only reason people make AI art is because they want praise you've never seen a discord full of MUD players excitedly sharing stuff they've made of their OCs because people like doing that!! for fun!!
people didn't pay artists for these before either, they just didn't get anything.
just because you and your pals make art for the prestige and recognition and praise doesn't mean everyone does tbh.
honestly this is a pretty bleak way to frame engagement with art. as though being recognized as talented is the point.
like I still hand draw all my shit because that's my pleasure but I'm still happy to see others sharing stuff from midjourney or nano. I didn't lose anything from them doing that. it's bringing them joy and helping them connect to a character, not rotting their souls or something.
you may call this an indictment of the state of mental health as a profession. you would be right! nevertheless.
disclaimer: I'm a 15+ year worker in this field and am able to recognize if I'm being told something odd. but this stuff actually does require a partner to be the most effective even if that partner doesn't need to do much. this could be done under clinical supervision and be completely ok imo
now I'm thinking about drawing. and I don't have a sketchbook with me. fuck.
literally every time (plural!!) I've attempted to bring up either CBT or DBT with human therapists they handed me a stack of printouts with exercises written down and told me to go at my own pace. a robot was way better sorry
One of my personal favorite Sparling stories.
i can only imagine the schadenfreude Zane felt getting to write this expose on how our posh suburb hometown was the epicenter of a 20 million dollar catalytic converter crime ring blamed on homeless people.
