  • brother/sister/sibling, that’s a neat sketch. You have potential. People from Uni have started with a similar skill level and are now fucking smashing their artwork. I understand that arts are mentally hard at times, when you feel nothing works and you don’t improve fast enough. Give yourself some credit.

    Now you are saying you’ll be using the output for your book. Is it important to you, that it is 100% your work? Is it important to you to not misrepresent your skills? Then declare that and how AI was used. Will you monetize said book? Then there are a few legal things to consider (in Germany for example anything an AI generates for you is per definition not your creation and cannot be copyrighted by you. If you make changes to the image/text/video before publishing you can at least secure some rights on it)

    I am not going to rate it as slop or not. If you need an illustration, and you need it now, who am I to tell you that this is not a legit tool, no matter how I myself feel about it.


  • I suppose if they want to discuss this with you, try to get to the root cause for their nervousness. Maybe they’re on the ace spectrum, it’s a good opportunity to check if they were mistreated by someone. What self image do they have? E.g. Do they think they are ugly and are therefore selfconcious?

    Whatever the outcome, let them know that it’s okay to be nervous, and to not rush these things. And that they can change their mind at any time, and they too, can say no, and it means no.
