Honestly.

This is just a grumble about how unauthorized use and generative AI are things you can only understand if you have a hobby or job that involves creating something. Feeding official images of Chappy into AI and saying, "I made an original character in the style of Mr./Ms. OO! This is from the world of OO where that character exists!" I'm also on the official side, so feeding the original manga into AI makes me really uncomfortable. Using official images, or copyright issues in general – I'm okay with those now. But I draw art, and it really bothers me that the staff who don't take action when fan art is used without permission, and the immediate regulations that are put in place as soon as the above is mentioned, are so frustrating. I'm doing it on the sly, so I just want to avoid getting shut down, so I'll really keep quiet, but... Honestly, I think quite a few people are probably feeling this frustration too. Well, it's just a grumble, so I'll delete it later. It's pretty embarrassing to admit I'm doing this.
