Well, I am here to chew bubblegum and irritate the anti-AI troglodytes. And I am all out of bubblegum.

Recently, I saw someone post how people who use AI to make images are no talent morons. Fair enough. I accept that title. Mainly because...I dgaf what you think of me. However, I am always challenging this hot take.

I recently purchased Meshy to try to learn to make mesh. Yesterday, I tackled it in earnest. I had several AI apps create some images - Night Cafe, MidJourney, CoPilot, Designer. Part of a portal series I have worked on.

I asked CoPilot to alpha some of these for me. I only recently discovered it will do that. I have been doing it myself. Honestly, 90% of the time, CoPilot does a better job. I have just had to learn to talk to it.

I took one of these images and pulled it into Meshy. It is an AI image going into an AI mesh app. Meshy created a model of my portal. I pulled it down as a Blender compatible file and imported into Blender. I exported as collada.

It was a learning process. In the end, I took my original image, brightened and sharpened it, before creating the model. After I put it into blender, I got the texture map and brightened and sharpened that one, then put on that texture after upload. Attached is the portal/elemental gate I ended up with.

I used an AI image and uploaded into an AI app to do most of the editing. I changed the shading, vibrance, and sharpness in Corel. I used Blender to import /export.

I guess I am a no talent moron, not an artist. ;)

My point is: The anti-AI stance is gatekeeping of the highest form. It's absurd. Photography wasn't considered art until it was. Digital art was the same.

I really don't care if you ever consider what I do as art. Feel free not to look. And the gatekeeper is what keeps people from being creators more than anything else.

Many many thanks to Jimmy Olsen and Lavia Lavine for your coaching, patience, and teaching. Many thanks to Contessa LaCombe for her coaching and knowledge regarding texturing mesh. Many thanks to Lone Wolf for making that video that took away much of the fear of trying for me. It takes a community. Many thanks to everyone who encourages me to keep trying, failing, and trying again.

Update on Garden Towers Mall: Lone Wolf has moved my region to a different server, giving us an improved experience. All the hair and women's clothes have been tested by my alt from another grid. The assets should all be okay. I'm also in the process of adding some new items.

Da werd ich hingehen heute Abend. Wer möchte kann mich gerne begleiten, allerdings braucht ihr dann einen SL Avatar.
Jetzt kann ich auch erklären warum mein Lennard auf dem Bild gut und gerne mindestens 10 Jahre jünger ist als mein aktueller, seriöser, diensteifriger Carima Lennard.
