Michi is taking a break for a while.

She talked about this on a recent stream, here are the
- going on break for about three weeks
- two weeks are for medical reasons
- she will stay in hospital and have routine check-ups as well as scheduled treatments
- one of the things she will get done is Botox for her bruxism (on recommendation from melody, since she has the same)
- one week will be as a buffer for potential complications and to spend time with family

- jumping off of the botox thing, she said she likes when people have some wrinkles
- if Matara went for women, Michi would have slid in those DMs the day they met

- the time she got grief from some antis Kuro, then Mysta, stood up for her publicly and privately
- initially she was mad at him for making himself a target for her sake and she yelled at him
- when he didn't back down and said something along the lines of "I don't care if I get hate because of this" she slowly started to see that he might just be nice

- the rest of the stream was some fucking Roblox children's brainrot

Worlds collide as a WoW creator I sometimes watch randomly known as MadSeasonShow brings up @Depressed Nousagi 's video as a case study.


A case study on... what? SEApeople? We already have an in-house on that, and he glows when fed mushrooms.

He watches a video about parasocial relationships and comments. The point both make is parasocial relationships can be good but many are bad.

artfags deserve the rope. Specially because if they were the ones footing the bill they would be doing the exact same. A background for commercial work even if it's for like 5 mins of screen time would start at an easy 200 upward. There's also the other side that maybe they did commission bgs but the artist had the tummy hort and couldn't deliver for shit so they had to push through and said fuck it.
I hope they at least don't cuck out and apologize for using le evil AI art that steals from all those poor artist souls.
Considering the fact it's probably gonna be mostly westoids loosing their shit Cover will just do as they usually do and ignore it completely. Some suit in the office will question why the amerifats are mad today but not much else. /vt/ isn't even melting down about it, that tells you how much of a nothingburger this is.

I don't know, for an industry that uses so much art, and for being the second-largest corpo, was it really that hard to commission someone to draw some teaser art? I bet Hololive doesn't use stock art, even for teaser stuff.
You're right @RestlessRain, I guess they don't use stock art, they're too cheap even for that.

This AI discussion is pretty simple. If you're not crediting nor reimbursing the original artists that were fed to create the model, it's shit, much more in the case of a multimillionaire company. If you think JP doesn't give a shit, check with them what they have to say about the new Black Jack manga using AI.
Get a cheap stock background, you have hundreds of thousands of them at a short cost because Japan was an art powerhouse for decades, so many people doing VN backgrounds during the 2005-2015 boom.
This is a Holo L and if you think otherwise you're sperging on the fact that annoying art like architecture is too expensive - that I agree for most part, but they could just hire a cheap SEA/ukranian monkey and make everyone happy, even if the background wasn't a masterpiece, because as you said, it would be there for only 5 seconds.

At this point it's not worth the hassle to kick that hornet's nest. You have a prompter grift "community" hellbent on hating artists for <insert cause> and in the other corner, the perpetually offended dangerhairs who, although not real artists, are ready to take the screeching and slapping fight to them- What I'm saying is just fucking hire an illustrator Cover, you can afford it.
I disagree, it's an entirely manufactured controversy, and the best way to deal with it is to just power on until using generative AI becomes standard practice across the board. People eventually stopped caring about record machines, CGI, autotune etc., and they'll eventually stop caring about AI.

Don't give perpetual drama queens an inch.

The impact a single artist has on a typical generative AI model is so miniscule it's hard to consider it worth it. You look at tools like NovelAI that scrape entire boorus for their machine learning system to comb through and it feels absurd to suggest someone deserves attribution and compensation for contributing one-zillionth of the reference material.

Counterpoint, sites that sell cheap stock image stuff are being flooded with AI generated stuff. Could have been a stock image purchase without looking over it for typical AI gen giveaways.

Yeah guys fuck it. Let's just make take the fucking japanese copyright retardation and dial it up 20 times over. Your art referenced someone's drawing as inspiration? gotta pay up!! Oh that design looked awfully familiar to this other dude, get fucked gotta pay. Your artstyle is awfully similar to these negroes? tough shit, pay up. If artfags want to open that pandora box for what is essentially sampling, something thousands of assholes do in music and photography, go right ahead. You'll be out of a job way faster when the talented people make their own AI models of their own art and sell them to the masses.

You can't fight progress, the mediocre artist is pretty much dead thanks to AI and instead of trying to garner some sympathy you're driving people to wish for your demise faster for being a cunt about it. Artists had a decent thing going but all the entitlement and lack of professionalism is what killing them, not the AI that spits random bs from a prompt, which is also hilarious because if you need to change something you don't have to wait a week for the asshole artist to actually do the work :whatastory:

Enough AI sperging, here have some yui clip

Some fans(?) Pointed out some of the backgrounds for the new holofantasy outfits are made by AI. Which i have to agree it looks very AI generated.

Im no anti AI but i feel like Cover being the biggest Vtuber company shouldnt rely on it and should prioritze work from artists.

Edit: the person calling it out isnt actually a random fan. Its Doki's rigger.

Meh. This can go either way. Could be a random asset they bought from someone selling a "fantasy background" pack and they use Ai. Or they just didn't care.

They need every single idea a talent puts forth faxed in and hanko stamped still. If they missed a melting AI background then their oft talked about "We need to consult the rules" or "We need to consider how X will look" process is all just for show. Either that, or they're turning into a real large corporation who's willing to have some bad optics if it means saving a couple yen.
