AI! REALLY?? I have never seen AI on scratch before...and it's true. Just read this..(It's a paragraph from @CatTheLoaf 's AI warning project) But worse than just implemented possible future AI features and encouraging its use, scratch has clearly stated (from what I’ve read) that they are very willing to USE OUR ART for AI training. This is something inevitable on the internet, but a platform actually STATING that they want to do it!? Absolutely disgusting, especially when it’s the work of unconcenting CHILDREN who likely don’t understand the implementation of AI taking their art. They are exploiting minors. I can’t state this enough. People don’t often read TOS, I wish they would but I admit me myself didn’t. Scratch must have assumed we wouldn’t and they could quietly sweep this under the rug. But it’s our art, and artists are NOT ok with it being exploited. Yes, this is all true. Scratch is allowing this for some reason. Scratch needs money but AI is not the way to do it. And not only is AI using our art but there are risks of serious information being leaked. Ai is taking over the WORLD even on the safest of websites. It might freak u out but it's true. But to know Its REAL!!!!! 'AI ART STYLE' and 'AI TRAINED ON UR ART' I wanted a career of a digital artist but now seeing this all ai stuff it's slipping away from me (and maybe other scratchers) like a dream I can never fulfil ....I’m sooooooo disappointed. Ever since I was 6yrs old and I used to go scratch a lot I never thought ai would enter the scratch world... But now my worst nightmare is going to be the future ... (welp)
Get rid of everything ON YOUR PROFILE even your gender (B-day as well). Change where you live to Antarctica even if u have to but be safe. (credits to @Star_209 for this comment 'cause I strongly agree with it) AND WHY WHEN I WAS GOING TO START MAKING A COMIC WHYYYYYYYYY?!?! (look inside) I have put this project in all of my followed studios... PLS PASS THIS ON!!!!!!!!! I am defiantly taking a hiatus... This is to all scratchers out there. Update: The Scratch Team just gave a message that AI won't steal art.(phew)
