I don’t think that is a fair comparison. Electronic musicians don’t outsource song construction to an algorithm that copies all the other songs on the Internet. Even though they can use midi instruments, sequencers, and samples (which do carry a known risk of copyright violation) they’re still composing or performing.
Thank you for describing your process in such detail. I’m sorry if this is going to come off as overtly contrary; that’s such an impersonal convoluted way to make an image. There are good illustrators out there that can sketch roughs and make a beautiful finished painting in a night, all right out of their head. Frank Frazetta would be laughing in his grave at AI art.
Absolutely. I gave up drinking 2 years as well. I’m a better artist, musician, employee, husband, and father. Alcohol just sucks.

It sure does. There’s a lot of research in the study of New Media that points to the superficial nature of how we connect online. We’re sharing banal content to weak-ties constantly. It’s not real human connection. On social media we are often just staring at everyone’s highlight reel. It’s unhealthy. You should read, “Alone Together” by Sherry Turkel.
But it’s not all grim. If you read about Participatory Culture you’ll see there’s an upside to New Media technology, which is the ability to be content producers, not just consumers.
Social media often fails to connect all 7 billion of us in any real, meaningingful, human way. We’re all just really busy being alone together.
Why did the booger break up with her boyfriend?
He was just a fling.
Alan Watts contextualizes our daily lives as the outer, “fine spray” at the edge of the big bang --still exploding. Planets “people-ing” and your daily schedule, relationships, accuisition of goods, etc. is just the complex late stage of the big bang explosion. The explosion is chaos but as time goes by order slips in and creates “complexity”. This is all still an explosion.

I did not check the actual website. So that explains it. Thank you.
Ok, thanks. My instance is reddthat.com (relatively small I believe) and I don’t think I see a way to create a community. I will reach out to the instance admin and see if that is currently by design.
That’s a good argument. I get this. The problem that I see is that you aren’t very present in the art. The AI is 100% leading you with what it knows. AI is essentially helping you create a collage of all the styles and bits of image content on the Internet. How are we going to develope new styles? A human can use their imagination and skill to create something groundbreaking and pioneering (artists had to break ground and fill the world with this art for AI to be even able to do this). AI is just going to continue to remix remixes of remixes. It’s sad to me. That’s not really what art is about. I’m not saying AI art isn’t useful. It’s a remix machine.
