Why you (as a 2D artist) should never work with YandereDev aka Alex Mahan—a quick post
trying to justify the nonconsensual usage of GenAI (on your art) to a third party and deliberately exaggerates your reaction in a way that WILL be misinterpreted. Lying, in short.
Whatever the fuck this is ig.
Anyways, this is only a few of the things he said about me and how I “overreacted” knowing my art just got fed to AI!! The guts when you are shamelessly asking an artist to lose hundreds of dollar to draw for you 30 illustrations while expecting professional treatment!!
So, even when you’re not planning on working for this guy, drawing for this fandom alone is already big enough of a risk!
Don’t bother to ask why I even talked to a pedo in a first place.
Update: here’s what he sent my friend. I’m just gonna paste the whole message here:
“<:DevShroog:1063460819582595112| Quitting immediately instead of having a conversation is unprofessional and out-of-line.
If she had been professional and simply said, "I'm anti-AI, never do that with my art," I would have apologized.
But, she quit without even being willing to discuss it, which is immature and unprofessional. So, if I describe her behavior, then I won't describe it positively.
If that offends her, then she should have behaved in a more professional manner.
Yes, AI is a quick and easy way to communicate an idea, such as "turn the character's head this way." That's kind of indisputable.
If she doesn't want me to use AI, I won't use AI. but she can't be immature and unprofessional and over-react and quit immediately instead of having a calm discussion about it.
I do not percieve myself as the "bad guy" of this situation.”
So, before you guys come at me for acting childish and unprofessional knowing my art just got fed to AI by someone I worked for (without getting paid, mind you), I think I’ll let Alex’s own words speak for itself.
