       @blueluma Hi.The image is made by @davidrevoy, an illustrator with which we worked for years on several projects. All of his work is under Free Licence and can be found on his website: https://www.peppercarrot.com/en/artworks/framasoft.html

       @peertube Great work! πŸ‘ I really appreciate this alternative to YouTube, Vimeo, etc. that you've provided the community. I've only used it to watch videos, but I'm curious about how the different "quality" video sizes are handled. If it's the responsibility of the uploader to provide multiple quality streams, I notice several videos only provide 1080p. My phone plan only allows 480p bandwidth. It's a general Fediverse streaming issue for me... stopping and loading 1080p streams every few secs.

       @jay Hi!The available quality depends on the choice of platform administrator.You could ask them to enable 480p transcoding so that you can enjoy videos from their platform!

       @blueluma It's amazing how the big industry has brainwashed the audience. I now collect this type of accusation no longer monthly, but weekly. And as a digital painter with more than 25 years' experience, I understand why. In fact, my work (and other, billion) has been used to train those AI models, so AI paint like us. But please stop accusing work that you are not 100% sure about. When real humans are behind it and have spent full days creating that imagery, it hurts a lot.@peertube

       @davidrevoy @blueluma @peertube It looks fantastic. Also I'm not familiar with any PeerTube branding or character, so right now I'm wondering if there's any sort of lore or universe where ironing is important. :D

       @meduz You can find more illustrations I've done with Sepia, the little mascot of Peertube here: https://www.peppercarrot.com/en/artworks/framasoft.html I designed the mascot back in the start of my Mastodon account, here on the Fediverse, with poll and feedback from my followers. ☺️ @peertube

       @meduz So, about the 'Ironing' bit, we wanted to show an indie filmmaker filming a scene like in the Superman movies. We had a good laugh at how Sepia designed a filming studio set with household items to simulate flying on a green screen. That's because this illustration was aimed at people who make indi-budget videos, for the internet. @peertube

       @becomethewaifu You've got a good point there, Emelia. It looks like the illustration in the original post was edited, with lots of reduction or enlargement filters or JPG 'smoothing' compression. A lot of the texture has been smoothed out, and the AI really goes to town on smoothing things (these 'AI gen' image techniques are Denoiser on steroids, after all).  The full resolution ( https://www.peppercarrot.com/0_sources/0ther/framasoft/hi-res/2022-11-25_Peertube-v5_by-David-Revoy.jpg ) reveals really the details and brush strokes.

       @davidrevoy cool process, I'm seeing it as, outline, color, direct lighting, indirect lighting. Makes me realize I am mixing those together, and need to work on drawing the outline as the correct shape. Instead I am always tempted to capture the different regions of shading in the outline

       @davidrevoy @blueluma @peertube For me, what stands out most is the actual content: models seem to have a tendency to cram in as much superfluous detail as space allows whereas artists tend to carefully choose which details help to tell a story.Also: sheer joy. Generated images tend to lack joy.

       @hazlin True, I think at the time I made this illustration I had this process : https://peertube.touhoppai.moe/w/6GetvC3grjMRdFooDDMe62Nowadays for the MiniFantasyTheater comic strip, I think I spent more time on the drawing, then less time on the 'under' coloring that feeds the canvas, and I try to smooth less after I merge all the stack of layer (because of the "smoothing = AI" syndrome)

       @davidrevoy @blueluma @peertube I notice that the blog post does not explicitly credit you.Which is weird because Framasoft does it when it's an illustration in the middle of an article, that's actually how I discovered you and all the beautiful art you make.

       @davidrevoy Imagine. Some day, when AI will have been the norm in art for years but AI suddenly disappears (because the bubble explodes or raw materials become too rare), then prompt-artists are forced to work without it, but the trends have been formed by AI so they try to imitate AI, drawing uniform soulless nonsensical scenes in square canvases.

       @peertube @ZhiZhu I normally consume this kind of media on a table (iPad) rather than a phone. Is there any chance of making it run natively as an iPad app, as I don’t really like the effect different aspect ratio on the table screen. Keep up the good work, though, this is just a personal foible!

       @davidrevoy @blueluma @peertube I have been following your work and enjoying it very much, starting from before this AI bubble inflated. Anyone who could make such an accusation is simply ignorant. I have to admit, some of your work actually looks too good to be a human construct: but I know better.

       @tuxmain I thought about this theme, the future of AI. Also had a little vertigo thinking that a future generation will feels nostalgia in 20 years about the really bad AI slop 'style' of our era, and will try with their modern AI to emulate the glitch of the "AI from the 20s".

       @davidrevoy Try to see it as a complement instead. People think it might be AI because it looks better than what most are capable of."That result is so good you must have cheated."You know those old paintings that almost look like a photograph? That is amazing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Hans_Holbein_the_Younger_-_Charles_de_Solier,_Sieur_de_Morette_-_Google_Art_Project.jpg

       Hello @peertube , I'd like to ask a question.Is there a popular server plan for Peertube?Something on the level of Mastodon Social.I think it would be good for a large number of general users to join.

       @davidrevoy @peertube Also, I think another (more flattering) reason is your expressive use of shadows and highlights, the majority of artists seem to work with either a more muted or more cartoony colour palette. And image generating AIs, for various reasons, tend to have very bright highlights and dark shadows.I (and many, many other people) love your style though! Also your commitment to open-ness :blobcatheart:

       @prokyonid True, to be fair, I couldn't help the Framasoft team this autumn/winter because I'm focusing on my weekly comics, so they gently asked me if I could do modification of already made artworks to get materials for release, and changing a 5 into a 8 was the least I could do. 😊
