I had no idea, and this hurts. I have a few, but fond, memories about DeviantArt when I had a short phase on highschool where I was drawing for a bit (which was more than 10 years ago). It didn’t last long, but DeviantArt was a large part of it.
Hearing they are commiting to AI art - THE platform for actual artists (at least it was, 10 years ago), who AI hurts the most, is insane. That’s pure betrayal. I hate this.
my first pc was a vista laptop, i downloaded some awesome windows themes and cursors from deviantart. once i tried to replace the start menu orb, but the image file i replaced must’ve been the vista logo that comes up at boot. it didn’t boot anymore.

Yup. They have an AI Art Generator called ‘Dream Up’ and it does exactly what you think it does.
So you can just make an account now, not caring about actually drawing or rendering anything, but you can just generate art. It’s crazy.
It doesn’t generate art, it generates content.
It degenerates art
