AI Slop

I put out a request for artist so I could get art for my dragon: Herbertologiiktantar - Monsters - Homebrew - D&D Beyond but instead I'm getting bombarded with the same AI slop over and over again. They always ask me for what I am looking for and to give them an example and then they share their examples from prior commissions, but they always are the same images and they all look like those dumb Facebook cartoons that people made of themselves back when I left Facebook. None of them are inspired or creative or even halfway decent and they all want like $300 for abysmal work. At this point it is just harassing. Is this what we've come too?

Yeesh! I mean I lost my PR label (I used to produce commercial music) to a bot like 15 years ago and now the graphical artist are being absconded of their craft by the same BS software. Like, I had a trade and a profession but had to pivot into Biomedical IT and Hospital Systems when I lost the label which I absolutely hate. I still do play and compose on occasion but it ain't a living anymore. Did we really need to strip someone else of their career and then bombard people with something that literally offends my eyes it is so terrible.

I just needed to vent. I'm getting about 10 pitches per day and all of them are the same terrible AI produced junk. Is literally no one creative or passionate about their craft anymore?
