Description


Bianca has a message, and she’s placed it where it’s sure to be noticed! No AI here, just some good ol’ Poser and Photoshop. And a little time and effort. Enjoyable time and effort. There have been several times over the last 2 – 3 weeks where I’ve considered calling it a loss, and just leaving Renderosity. With all the look-alike AI stuff from certain folks that post the daily limit of it – and I’m sooooooo glad Renderosity set a daily limit, or we’d be seeing 30 – 50 of them a day. Anyway, chucking it in, and leaving seems too much like admitting defeat – and I’m not terribly good at that. So y’all are still stuck with me! And YES… The TNA Gals will be back in action soon. Guaranteed. I know there are a few folks here that use AI because of health or vision issues. And the above is not aimed at them. I’ll end my rant here. Background photo by me. I don’t know if there are any old-timers here that remember Bmac52 (Bill) and AuntieTK (Tara), two friends that I first met right here on Renderosity all those years ago. They live in the Kansas City metro area, on the Kansas side of the line. It’s been too long since we’ve been together, so we’re doing so on Thursday. Looking forward to that! In closing, I hope everyone is doing well, staying safe, healthy, and creative. Hang in there! Rod's Lair Official Girls From T.N.A. Website Rod's Blog Facebook Twitter Girls From T.N.A.

I agree, AI art is the antithesis of art as it steals the work from hard working artist with no regard to copyright. Not to mention it can not benefit the 3d artist that sale their work here and anywhere else. I too was thinking of just leaving this site, still debating it.

For my view of your fine works Rodcis AI " Always Impressive " Yeah AI is overwhelming this site. Yes, poser, daz, photoshop, and other software that renders mountains, trees, landscapes etc.

I only commented on a few of artists i know.

Love her shirt and positive message.

Hi Rod, sorry to say it, but i don't have anything against 'enhancements' artificial or otherwise. Tried that 'AI' stuff but it's not for me. It's been a wile that i posted something, had a heart attack as a new years gift i'm still a bit down and without any inspiration for doing something in Daz. But i'm trying. I a positive note, i'm losing weight and getting in to shape (slowly).

Wow, sorry to read that! I hope you continue to improve, just remember to take it slowly, my friend! Sending healing thoughts and prayers your way.

Yeah, I played with MidJourney a while back, until it wanted money. I'd rather do my own creating - it's a lot more fun and satisfying.

That's one sure way to draw attention to the message. I really like how she blends with the photo and her shadow corresponds to the shadows in the photo.

Well, she didn't draw enough attention running around like that. Otherwise the place would have been a lot more crowded. LOL! Good work! And I agree that AI should be posted in another forum, not here in a 3D forum or gallery.

The background photo hooked me, as I have become accustomed to not seeing through pedestrians, nor having some animal desires :)

A I is another art form, as is photography ... the house continues, with a different "story" for each and all tenants, decided by supporting efforts. In this age of "media madness", true art rather than mass quantity should be a goal for all in any effort.

Our photography could differ considerably from a primary focus of Renderosity, and I personally appreciate an opportunity to share my versions of "art", regret having no time to learn your procedures for creating interesting stories amidst the chaos (but learning too much about it lately)

Be well and prosper

For me, the biggest caveat for AI art is its use in deepfakes - and news outlets treating them as real. Case in point:

That is pretty damn scary... And it's only the beginning.. "Don't believe anything you hear, and only about half of what you see..."

She's got a great message and I'm certainly glad you have decided to stay with us as an artist. AI tents to make a mess of things, as you are most likely aware, because AI has no soul or reflection of a real, human artist's expertise. Real art by real humans wins.

Absolutely fantastic work.

And I wholeheartedly agree. To me AI art is not art. I put myself in everything I create, weather it be through my photography, Poser (DAZ now), Photoshop, or my sketches back in the day. To me, AI seems soulless and has no imagination to it.

Support Genuine Artist!

Humans doing miserable jobs for minimum wage while robots do poetry and painting is NOT the future we want.

Background and figure harmonizing wonderful together. Excellent work, my friend.

No comment, neither positive nor negative, you know why I do AI, when I've used up my finished ones, there are 3d's again and my $20 are gone, but your image looks fantastic! 👍

I do know why, and I mentioned it wasn't meant for those using due to health / vision problems. So you're in the clear, Sis! 😁

This image certainly gave me a chuckle. XD

It looks like you brought your Poser Girl into a photograph and I appreciate how much attention to detail you put into getting the position of the sun right so her shadow fell nicely on the shadow plane in a realistic way.

As for your text rant, I've nothing against AI, Rod, but it's not for me. Frankly, it's not for many of the people who use it, either. They spit out images that are surprisingly similar and while often pretty the don't feel like the artist was working from inspiration. I suspect that since it's so easy to do many people just don't think much about what they're doing. Some, like Ute, 1971s, Cybertenko and Ken1171_Designs obviously think a lot about their prompts and produce images that stand above a lot of the AI imagery I've seen. Here's the thing: no matter what the medium, Sturgeon's law applies so it's not surprising that a lot of the AI is crap. We'll see how things progress but it's pretty pointless to rage at change so I'm trying to figure out where AI fits for teh Mollz. =)

I do like what I see, but don't agree with the message. Not everyone uses A.I. the same way or for the same reasons. A.I. is not just software making an image. While that is part of it, it does require a certain amount or creativity on the artist/writer to create a prompt to replicate one's vision. Sometimes happy accidents occur and complete surprises. One can use AI on its own or use it to augment any PS, vue, Poser, DAZ image and more. It's excellent for a background needed for video or a DAZ or Poser figure. My final word is there is no stopping it and this is a case where learning about the different forms of AI is a journey where you might find something that works for you. People over use DAZ and Poser for redundant images too. That said, we all have opinions and we can all move to a different beat. I'll always support one's first amendment rights. At this point it may be better energy spent by watching to see what kind of regulations and laws may have to be formed to protect people from false presentations like Trump as a hero of Obama as villain. Hate speech and defamation is not protected the same way under the first amendment, so bill/law makers are going to have to start to consider these things. All new technology is a double edged sword. This is not a rant to say you're wrong, you're not, just an ask to look at something from another perspective.

Great image, Rod. I agree with you about the AI generated stuff. There probably should be a seperate gallery on Renderosity for all the AI art. It has really flooded out the main gallery.
