Frick this stupid person. Stirring Risotto is being human. Failing to make a roux is human. If you hate AI for "doing the human stuff" that we value, then dont fricking pick and choose.
I don't even like AI art but its still like, objectively kinda cool. You can totally see the soulesness it has and I still value art, but you're legit a fricking bad person to pretend AI art is bad but AI risotto is better.

The time cost of finding an artist to hire in the first place is greatest.
Anyone actually good tends to be more expensive, and sometimes reclusive. You have to look at the portfolio, but artists can super cherry pick what they choose to show (after you've spent a long time seeing bad portfolios) so you try to find any minimum good recent work to make sure you're not buying crap.
Then you wait a week or two and hopefully not seven because it turns out they're crazy

200$ is a lot of money for 1 png, plus 5 month wait time, an hour or two to explain your idea, explain corrections etc, pay the fricker, keep checking in if it's finished..
I wanted to try creating my own visual novel one day but i don't have 30.000$ ready or artists friends, so i'm hoping AI gets good at creating consistent sprites of a character without having to train it myself
It'd still be a ton of work, even with AI, but it'd at least be feasible. Would get a lot of hate though but I can live with that
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
If you're paying that much, it's definitely should be a REALLY GOOD png, not one sprite with no background
Think cover art, key visuals, and complicated things
something an amateur could NOT do by tracing a photo in their art style
...and the artist should be skilled and professional enough to have good turnaround times at that price
massive skill issue
They need to study the mangaka grindset. Original animeslop from japan is made by people who draw 4+ characters in an hour.

Yeah furry artists are expensive as shit, all the ones i checked are like.. 1 colored character, simple bg or no bg, 100$. You need like 5 characters with 10 sprites and another 20 characters with 3 sprites if you're doing a big vn
Then there's the problem of what happens if your artist ditches you during VN development: you gotta pay another artist to rework all past art and hope this one ALSO doesn't ditch you.
Seen it happen. Multiple times, absolute shitshow

Even the cost cost is ridiculous. A friend recommended an artist for a small business I was in. We needed someone to make a a logo (that we had a general idea of what we wanted) planned for patches & tshirts that and they requested a 5 figure flat rate AND a percentage of all profit made off all the items. Last I saw, he was working at a Panera bread.

The artists that do commission on social media are nuts in general. Many of them require you to sign a contract saying they maintain copyright over the imagery and you have to ask for permission to use the art for anything strictly outside of personal use.

We are truly reaching the wingcuck singularity on this decade
!accelerationists
Just like ledditors, who have been ridden with TDS since 2015, and who thought that Drumpf was truly finished in 2020, but now that he is back in full-force for more 4 years, they have become so much mentally broken and are full-blown fedposting and demanding assassinations because Dems are not doing anything about it and screeching on reddit is also not revolutionary praxis
The Xwitter artists are also becoming hopeless now that they realize that AI art is becoming even better and more popular, and pooping on peopl who use AI art from their Xwitter and Reddit bubbles is not going to do anything about it
I wonder if within a few years we are going to see Danganronpa and fujo fatties start to commit arsons and bombings at AI companies because they stopped receiving coomerbux and poonerbux

You think the average person can tell what is AI? Unless you go into it trying to see if it's AI it's not going to be super obvious unless you're looking at it on a larger sized medium. It's why AI gen is so prevalent on social media, on small screens it can look pretty convincing. The packaging on consumer goods is about the right size for it to have the same effect.
