Having my work compared to AI feels like a slap in the face rather than a compliment. To me when someone accuses me of using AI to either aid in the creation of my work or outright use AI to create something, it feels like they're saying, "I firmly believe you don't have the skills needed to execute your vision and you lack creativity." And when someone does accuse me of doing using AI it now feels like I'm on trial trying to PROVE I didn't use it. The more it happens the more disheartening it is to share things I make. I'm compelled to create but when accusations are thrown at me when I share it, it makes me less likely to share stuff in the future.

Hi DOZA, I'm not sure how to answer that question. Absolutely NO AI was involved in the creation of my work. I AM AGAINST AI IN EVERY WAY - especially in relation to creating visual art.
