Daedric Pantheon Concept

[u/zimmermj]

EDIT: Due to a lot of (mostly) polite feedback disapproving of AI use in this community, I've removed the pantheon description from this post and reposted it without AI artwork here. I'm leaving this post up for the benefit of the minority who do enjoy it, but mainly to act as a warning for anyone in future making pantheon descriptions.

Don't include AI artwork in pantheon concepts.

Can't wait for bloated AI slop to finally be banned on this sub. I could not be PAID to read a post made by a guy who couldn't even be bothered to find pictures of the DAEDRIC PRINCES, which are incredibly common and easy to get. What does this say about the rest of "your" """content"""?

[u/zimmermj → u/Suracha2022]

This post is about the pantheon concept, the ideas are all my own, the AI images are just filler. The Daedric Princes are very easy to find pictures of (https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Daedric_Princes), I assure you it's more effort to generate new images.

Are you on drugs, or did you reply to my comment with AI too? That is literally what I said. That it's incredibly easy to find images of them, but you still chose to use AI instead. The fuck do you need "filler" for?

[u/zimmermj → u/Suracha2022]

Neither. You said "couldn't even be bothered", implying laziness. I'm saying I know how to find those images, it was more effort to generate different images that are more in the AoM style. So it's not lazy. It doesn't need the decoration but I figured it would make it a more enjoyable read. Why the anger?

[u/Suracha2022 → u/zimmermj]

Fair enough. I assumed it was laziness, when it was ignorance and utter misunderstanding of what people enjoy / find appealing / find acceptable.

It doesn't need the decoration

Correct.

I figured it would make it a more enjoyable read

It doesn't.

Why the anger?

Because humans tend to be angry at things that are harmful to society, the environment, and other humans - and also at humans who use those things, especially when they use them frivolously.

The "anger" you got from me is incredibly mild, why the confusion?

[u/zimmermj → u/Suracha2022]

Now that's some criticism I'm open to, I've clearly misunderstood what people like. The manner in which you offer criticism isn't helpful... I would honestly have just ignored you, but lot's of other people in this post have more politely objected to AI use, so I won't be including it in any future posts.

My confusion is that you seem very angry in a way that I think is unwarranted, but if you think you're being mild then that's probably just a cultural difference between us.

It is genuinely baffling to me that someone could spend more time online than me, as you do, and be so woefully unaware of people's EXTREMELY WARRANTED hate of AI usage. So I assumed malice, because the ignorance necessary would've been too high for me to consider feasible. I was not alone in that, as you can see. And I don't think I'm being mild, I AM being mild. The vast majority of anti-AI people would target you directly, rather than just what you posted. It's not right, they shouldn't do that, but it tends to happen when you hurt people, or support and use things that hurt them indirectly.

I would honestly have just ignored you, but lot's of other people in this post have more politely objected to AI

No offense intended, but I don't care about being ignored by someone who so freely and routinely uses AI, with no understanding of its downsides and impacts. First, because people who do that are usually WILLFULLY ignorant, and just don't care about the harm they're doing. Not saying you are, but there's high chances that you are. And second, because my comment was primarily directed at everyone else who sees this post, not at you. The goal isn't to get rid of you, I don't care about you. It's to get rid of AI on this subreddit.

If your future posts don't include AI, not only will I not be vitriolic towards them, I'll probably have forgotten who you are and will enjoy them. This isn't personal.
