Question over a.i. use to make TMNT art
 

I have a serious question, what's up with all the use of a.i. in TMNT art? Like I'm not trying to bash a.i. in this thread/post but like what makes TMNT fans more inclined to use a.i. to make their fanart?

Because they can't draw.

And most of this is just being used for social media engagement in hopes of making a penny.

Zarius is the TMNT A.I. master of the forum. I wonder how his RocksteadyxApril shipping fanfic is going. We still haven't seen Rocksteady and April "in bed" together yet.

I haven't checked Deviant Art for years but I guess all non-adult art rule has changed since I last been there. There are entire galleries of people making AI NSFW of any character you can name either locking them behind a paywall or asking you to subscribe 'to see more'.

I don't even how that works, or is even legal. I mean first of all, it's AI so it's not even drawn. Secondly, they're making money making AI NSFW art of characters they don't own like Wonder Woman, Bulma, and to keep it on topic, April too.

There's not really any such thing as "AI Art."

I mean it's really not much different than commissions, besides the fact people were actually drawing the characters. People would charge $100 to draw NSFW art of a requested videogame/anime/cartoon character and get paid real money for it. So it's the same principle here, only they are now letting AI do all the work.

So if for example people wanted art of Tifa and Aerith kissing, or Princess Peach and Zelda touching each others boobs, you could charge money for it. Its always been allowed for people who wanted that stuff.

I wonder what AIs they are using. Every one I've dabbled with stops me if I try to use anything like Batman or Robocop or really any actor. I even tried to make a funny video with Carl Weathers as Apollo on a few of the generators and it "violated the terms" every time, just using him at all.
