ArtStation is also filling up with AI crap, though not to the same extent as dA quite yet. It's most obvious in the marketplace which is now full of paid "reference packs" that consist entirely of AI generated images, which rather defeats the point of using a reference.
There's still people on there selling good reference material but now they're buried between a few dozen variants of 6000+ WIZARD CHARACTERS IN 4K!! that someone churned out with Stable Diffusion in an afternoon.
- kunagi7 2y agoI use several sites like ArtStation, Pixiv and aggregators to download new wallpapers for my devices. This used to be an entertaining experience to see all the kinds of beautiful art people used to create... But as you said it is getting filled by AI crap. I noticed the same thing with Pixiv, even if I opt-out from AI art, new results from several popular tags are filled with badly tagged AI images. Now the experience feels tiresome, in some categories I waste too much time filtering between real and AI art. I started to search things produced before 2022-2023 to avoid AI. This "art" should be uploaded to its own subdomain and never get mixed up with real art.
