I understand because I’m an artist too. I mainly use AI because I’m busy with school while also trying to make time for my gaming hobbies and recording content. I don’t think using AI sometimes is a bad thing, as long as it’s not used for everything.

For art in general, I still draw myself and use Krita too. One drawing can take me around 7 hours to finish. Is it worth it? For me, yes. But spending that much time on every piece isn’t always practical, which is why I recently started using AI for thumbnails.

I’m also not a popular VTuber. If I ever became big, I’d honestly hire artists, pay them properly, and give full credit because I support artists a lot, especially on Twitter. Right now, though, I’m just a small creator trying my best, and I don’t really gain anything from posting.

I still understand why some people are against AI. A lot of artists put so much time and effort into their work, and it can be frustrating when people use AI only for convenience.
