That part was wild for me because I read your comment before I reached that part and I thought the art thief was accusing the artist for having loaded parents but it was the thief with the loaded parents?? Yet they had the audacity to steal? Like ask your parents for money instead of backstabbing your friend like that.
What a DISGUSTING person?!!? The "explanation" was so condescending and dismissive I am FUMING. How can you do this to someone you call a friend??? "I makes me feel shitty". GOOD, AS IT SHOULD.
Disgusting???? Lmao y'all rlly need to get a grip on reality. All the friend did was resell Sirpyes art after feeding it to AI. Was that a crappy thing to do to your friend, ofc. But not 'disgusting.' What would've been disgusting is if that same friend then continued doin it without telling Sirypes or lying to them so they could gain more profit. Which they could've easily did, but didn't. I swear, with each day I lose more and more respect for the art community....
@@Xaire0207 “all the friend did was resell sirpyes art after feeding it to ai” that is not just something to pass off. for one, they are taking advantage of their friend. also, they are trying to trick people by making them think they made this art which was originally made by their own friend with help of an ai. it is wrong to sell ai art too
The betrayal is heavy on this one. The audacity to ask the artist to delete the post because it made them feel wronged, they know it's wrong leeching off of their friend and still did it..
Hey. I'm the artist in the video I just found out you made this! 😭 thank you all for the kind words, in moments of doubt if I did the right thing people like you keep me sane. I'm a little shocked this has never happened before all I can really say is thank you for the support, maybe look at my art sometime! Thank you for the love, support real artists!
Yeah sorry you went through that. I can’t imagine how painful that felt learning the truth about them doing this bs behind your back an just straight up using you. For one fake friend, may you be surrounded by more real ones 🫂
jesus i hate when friends turn out like this. i have a friend who apparently takes my art and whitewashes it behind my back. they didnt even tell me, i learned from someone else. still too scared to confront them. why cant people be NORMAL and actually be good FRIENDS to others. EDIT: I have not cut them off because I have barriers preventing me from stabily doing so, such as a lack of support system that's stable enough to be able to cut such a close friend off. Also, I am mad at the racism and the backstabbing needed to do such a thing to me. I am not one who cares if someone takes an anime character and draws them as mixed race or darker skin. But I am an independent artist who is having my own art defiled and sent to others for no clear reason.
That might be messed up*colorwashing is whatever get over it* but you are truly messed up too to not just talk to them ask what's up and why did they do this. Why be scared? This is a SOCIAL INTERACTION, not all interactions are good. Learn to take what you can and give what you can. Mentally and verbally.
The so-called """friend""" could've used literally ANY free-to-use adopt-ready base and make adoptables if they were that desperate for money. Or they could've asked if Sirpyes could help them make adopts to sell. That would've been WAY better than stealing their art and feeding it into AI while knowing Sirpyes' stance on AI generated pieces. If my friends did this, they'd be cut out of my life faster than you can say "fuck around and find out".
What's insane is. They could have used like official Sega art, colored over it, and then fed it to the AI. It would have produced the same results: Ugly AI trash. Do I think that is better? No. My point is they didn't have to use their friend like this if they really wanted the money. They made a conscious choice to take advantage of Sirpyes
Not to mention the AI totally butchered all the characters that they actually drew. Cosmo and Tikal were HIDEOUSLY UNRECOGNISABLE!! And that's already on top of the AI being smudgy and gross. Who even buys that slop??? I wouldn't even spend a single dollar on that crap.

Their friendship was about to end sooner or later. As an example the scammer writing out an entire apology without understanding why the OP might be mad also, the OP seemed fed up about the person coming from an upper family telling the ex friend that they're rich by proxy and if you hold that much of resentment then were those two truly gonna hold forever.

@@yourdailyrandom5434they never said their friend was rich? Just that their parents are loaded. And so what if they were? They’re right. They could have gone to their parents and done chores to earn money.

I'd react pretty similar to how this artist reacted. What a stab in the back. Friends don't use friends, I don't care how much money you need or why you need it. It's such narcissistic behavior. Only cared about themselves and what they wanted, didn't care a lick for their "friend". Sirpyes was just a tool for them to get attention/money and it's disgusting.
What a terrible friend. There’s no excuse for people to steal your work and use it for their own gain, it’s not their friend’s responsibility to help their financial issues. They have the audacity to do it to a friend, and ask them to take down the post about it… wild.. also it seems this person is Australian too, you can be 18 (legal age to be adult here) and be in the last year of high school, but usually most will be 17
I'm not saying this to imply that sirpyes is lying, I think this would be a really convoluted and stupid thing to lie about, but I can definitely see why some people thought this was fake. The conversation seems really strange and a little staged, but then thats not a real reason to doubt someone without any solid proof. Regardless, I'm glad sirpyes was able to move on from this and I wish them the best moving forward.❤
@@瑠衣っち Well yes you're right. Since all involved parties are minors, I tend to lean more on the side of young people can make really bad decisions and talk really dramatically like this. But yes, the conversation feels very much like it was written purposefully by someone.
@@snazzybull I can understand why you think as such! Both situations are very much possible. In the end, there’s no way to truly know unless one or the other is actually proven.
The way the artist keeps trying to give the benefit of the doubt. It’s so horrible to see people try to be a good friend when the other person is just so… ugh.
Man it sucks when a friend steals your art and claim it as there own. I had that happen to me to a friend from jr high to highschool they where taking my art for years and claiming it as my own. Then when I told people that was my art they wanted prove, and since all the art in question was done on paper. I showed them back of the work with my name and even the date it was done. When this got out a lot of our friends refused to give them free art after that, then like a idiot I forgave them and found out that on devianart they still did not give me credit and over time made another account but with there art they did. I mean if they could have done that, they should have from the start. no need to take things that are not yours. Oddly enough that was not the last time where my art was taken from me. A rando online tried to take one of my art works and say they did it for a commission pricing template. And lucky they got banned due to other artist and me reporting them. This doesn't have a happy ending sadly. I do not post art anymore. yes I draw, but it seems my art will always be good enough to steal, but never good enough to buy. So I still draw, but never post my art online anymore. And with Ai I really do not want to post any art online.
Your friend would be dead to you all bcuz they fed your art to AI and then sold it? I mean, I get it's a crappy thing to do, but DEAD to you? Lmao, some of y'all in the art community needs a reality check, BAD.
@@Xaire0207 lmao yeah, because they plagiarized my hard work and fed it through a machine whose databanks comprise of other people’s work. AND sold it for profit. do you hear yourself speak when you type your sentences out? be so fucking forreal.
The fact that she even after being betrayed is still considering the harrassment they could get if the name got out... what a manipulative a-hole of a friend
ngl the conversation between this "friend" and them sounds really strange, I don't blame others thinking this is fake. I just read about the writer who made up a whole conversation with herself to excuse review bombing other writers and boosting herself, and this has the same weird uncanny feel minus the villain plot twist. fucked thing if this happened for real though.
the convo definitely feels fake, the way they talk is a way that people only talk to others when they’re not being authentic. like you see love-bombers talk that way all the time, i think that’s why it seems so fake. idk how they could even possibly have made enough money from stealing their art to buy pc parts either? like who is buying something that has “ai” branded in the corner. ai fans aren’t gonna pay for someone’s sonic oc ai art and artists aren’t gonna pay for an adoptable with “ai” in the corner
It's so funny that folks who use AI art don't have the mental capacity to consider that they're fucking themselves over in the future as they'll get incomplete garbage with MULTIPLE errors and make it so ACTUAL artists become a rarity with higher standard rates. Good job, you done played yourself.
@@Cylidae that’s why you tell it what to do it takes reference and draws what it thinks which can lead to great results. Also the ai art looked way more polished then the other persons in my opinion.
My answer to the question is would feel pity for them. I’m a pixel artist and the biggest canvas i had was around 100 by 100 pixels, but i usually prefer less than 32 by 32 pixels. That’s why i think whoever does it to me have no self esteem, to the point they have to let AI make a 1bit, 8 by 8 pixels piece for them.
Will like to mention depending on how dysfunctional the household is and you still live with the parents your free will does not matter. Im 20 in no place to move out i lack my own free will. Except theres other jobs you can do over the web that isn’t scamming. Terrible friendship
Im gonna say it Im gonna say it, chat. I cant hold it anymore. I hope the friend that stole sirpies's art never finds friends again and is stuck in her own hell of shame for this situation.
They seem like a rlly sweet person I feel like if the friend who stole just asked for help they would’ve made them free adopts to sell anyway why steal
I have no words for how scummy and fucked up this situation is. Even has the gall to be offended by the post denouncing the blatant theft for the sake of profit.
As soon as anyone chares anything negative that has to do with their personal live there are going to be people claiming that they're doing it to play victim or to get followers and likes through drama. Sure sometimes that's true when it's complete nothingburgers, but in like 90% of cases those people should just be ignored/blocked and are jealous over the poster's success
2:00 when she stop using emojis,it was so relatable bc whenever I got shocked or irritated,I STOP USING EMOJIS 😭 (2:42 first time of hearing Katie cussing 😭😭🔥🔥 btw)
peoples sheer audacity to do anything for money scares me, honestly the way I'd prefer to get a few quick bucks would be either selling a lemonade stand for 1 dollar per cup o' lemonade. but I think just making your own art and selling it is better [or doing commissions for art]
This situation is fucked up. However. Insulting people who cannot leave their parents' home should have been something that died down pre-2020. There are some people who are functionally invalids (may be offenseive term) or abusive parents that have fucked up the psyche of their children enough for them to not understand leaving. Additionally there are cultures where people just live with their parents until marriage. This happens in the west as well as other places. This situation is still fucked up and minors are wildin. But that was kind of low for you to poke at. "Bro just move out" isn't possible for everyone. Please keep this in mind.
Twitter man- the fact the artist got dragged on for "making this"- honestly makes my decision to leave the platform behind a good decision. OP is right, considering Twitter is so bent on making sure to ruin other people's lives.
Can I just say I do not understand how they are making money on this stuff.. like.. who is paying money for it and for what. Who could possibly be that dumb
Ai is a tool to improve yourself NOT to do disgusting shits like this Like seriously? Betraying your frined and not telling them soon as possible but you come and tell them because they posted a post that wasn't even saying them but still has the audacity to ask them to delete it? This is unacceptable and i can see and feel how that person felt rn, being betrayed by soemone you trust. I'm not a very good artist but I'm very disgusted on what I've witnessed. Hope that person doing alright. Is not like I'm supporting ai or anything, people who use ai and calling them art is disgusting. But if artist use ai as tool to imporve it makes much more sense. I personally don't hate ai that much, sure is messed up but is a tool. We use the tool, not to use them as weapons.
I didn't think it was that deep until she explained that she profited from the ai pics. Like bro, stealing customers from your friends *WITH* an AI version of their own work is such bs.
the thing that bothers me personally, is how the AI scammer was able to clearly get customers for their obvious AI stuff, and i haven't been able to get any clients for genuine art or music. (possibly due to bat marketing, and just being in a bit of a burnout recovery, but still)
I feel like the only art styles that should be fed into AI art styles from cartoons and stuff. Since people are already copying them, make it easier for someone to try and get their character to look in a certain way, without hafting to worry about getting it Exactly right, especially if it's one of the more fancy ones.
I am used to being a CV on DA, and we had people stealing from themselves for social media kloud, because shit like this blows up. Artist in the video could be really a victim, but since then I always take allegations with a grain of salt.
I dabble with AI, but not for profit. It's a virtually endless source of reference material for my own actual art, and none of what I have it generate is shared or for profit.

Then when I told people that was my art they wanted prove, and since all the art in question was done on paper. I showed them back of the work with my name and even the date it was done.
When this got out a lot of our friends refused to give them free art after that, then like a idiot I forgave them and found out that on devianart they still did not give me credit and over time made another account but with there art they did. I mean if they could have done that, they should have from the start. no need to take things that are not yours. Oddly enough that was not the last time where my art was taken from me. A rando online tried to take one of my art works and say they did it for a commission pricing template. And lucky they got banned due to other artist and me reporting them.
This doesn't have a happy ending sadly. I do not post art anymore. yes I draw, but it seems my art will always be good enough to steal, but never good enough to buy. So I still draw, but never post my art online anymore. And with Ai I really do not want to post any art online.
With friends like these, who needs enemies lol
That’s so sad to have that done to anyone especially how much time and effect done in art
First question? They're dead to me. I would announce it to everyone.
Your friend would be dead to you all bcuz they fed your art to AI and then sold it? I mean, I get it's a crappy thing to do, but DEAD to you? Lmao, some of y'all in the art community needs a reality check, BAD.
@@Xaire0207 Can you pick up a pencil and colors pls 🥰
@@NaraSherko literally shut up omg i hate the art community
@@Xaire0207 lmao yeah, because they plagiarized my hard work and fed it through a machine whose databanks comprise of other people’s work. AND sold it for profit. do you hear yourself speak when you type your sentences out? be so fucking forreal.
@@Xaire0207 yes i fucking would because they stole my hard work and sold it for profit??? do you read the sentences that you type out. buddy?
The fact that the only reason they came out about the ai art is because their friend called them out and wanted them to take it down 🤦♂️
The fact that she even after being betrayed is still considering the harrassment they could get if the name got out... what a manipulative a-hole of a friend
"can you delete it it makes me feel shitty :(" YOU SHOULD!!!!!
The original has so much charm ngl
ngl the conversation between this "friend" and them sounds really strange, I don't blame others thinking this is fake. I just read about the writer who made up a whole conversation with herself to excuse review bombing other writers and boosting herself, and this has the same weird uncanny feel minus the villain plot twist.
fucked thing if this happened for real though.
the convo definitely feels fake, the way they talk is a way that people only talk to others when they’re not being authentic. like you see love-bombers talk that way all the time, i think that’s why it seems so fake.
idk how they could even possibly have made enough money from stealing their art to buy pc parts either? like who is buying something that has “ai” branded in the corner. ai fans aren’t gonna pay for someone’s sonic oc ai art and artists aren’t gonna pay for an adoptable with “ai” in the corner
This really does feel like a publicity stunt
It's so funny that folks who use AI art don't have the mental capacity to consider that they're fucking themselves over in the future as they'll get incomplete garbage with MULTIPLE errors and make it so ACTUAL artists become a rarity with higher standard rates. Good job, you done played yourself.
It has valid use for inspo/references at least but this case is neither
@@draconicfeline6177they could just make a Pinterest board tho
@@draconicfeline6177I wouldn’t reccomend that. It’s not smart to reference pieces from a machine that doesn’t know what it’s doing.
@@Cylidae that’s why you tell it what to do it takes reference and draws what it thinks which can lead to great results. Also the ai art looked way more polished then the other persons in my opinion.
@@MetricOwl-tv8zx it does look polished, but it's still stolen and using someone's art style
I KNEW THAT ART (the stolen one) WAS AI, also. The Mobians Ai website absolutely SUCKS.
Wait, the art that was stolen is also AI??
@@Mike14264 shoot, accident. I meant that the thing that stole it, the Ai. I type fast😭
me who worked hard to develop a specific art style
ai: steals it
and now everyone will think my art is ai generated
I saw this mess and it was soooooo stressful oh my god, so upsetting
My answer to the question is would feel pity for them. I’m a pixel artist and the biggest canvas i had was around 100 by 100 pixels, but i usually prefer less than 32 by 32 pixels. That’s why i think whoever does it to me have no self esteem, to the point they have to let AI make a 1bit, 8 by 8 pixels piece for them.
"get a real job" Right thing to do but easier said than done.
Will like to mention depending on how dysfunctional the household is and you still live with the parents your free will does not matter. Im 20 in no place to move out i lack my own free will. Except theres other jobs you can do over the web that isn’t scamming. Terrible friendship
"get a job, loser" - everyone
I was there helping the artist and the AI Trash discord server was not of help "need artists or ai won't work" bs told to me
and the server admin was blaming the artist it was crazy
@@Lanadapter2so you saying their AI need constant inputs? Are their work already too monotone?
@@fadillah6014 idk the discord mods was too mean and ai pushy
Im gonna say it
Im gonna say it, chat.
I cant hold it anymore.
I hope the friend that stole sirpies's art never finds friends again and is stuck in her own hell of shame for this situation.
1:54 that "What?" Read like that famous what from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 ;o;
Immediately thought of that 😂
now i know that sounds bad...
Thats not a friend, that is what you call a leech.
I hate it when ppl talk about their problems and some ppl be like oh no you want attention! Girl do you have something that is called brain or nuh?
i would cry for DAYS if this happened to me. i feel so bad for the original artists. the amount of betrayal they must've felt....
Seeing you cover a situation from my community, the sonic community, is so surprising I didn't expect that
Can't believe youtube hid this from me for 3 minutes
They seem like a rlly sweet person I feel like if the friend who stole just asked for help they would’ve made them free adopts to sell anyway why steal
yes fr
i hate Ai
i ate ai
@@da_kine thats crazy
valid opinion, maybe you all could destroy it before the places start becaming ai trash
Same
Vore?
Ngl,if i had some type of this "friends" I would sue then!!!
"it makes me feel shitty"... good.
I have no words for how scummy and fucked up this situation is. Even has the gall to be offended by the post denouncing the blatant theft for the sake of profit.
I GOT AN AI ART AD BEFORE THIS😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
0:38, AI is all grey and corperate, the original is so colorful and full life
As soon as anyone chares anything negative that has to do with their personal live there are going to be people claiming that they're doing it to play victim or to get followers and likes through drama. Sure sometimes that's true when it's complete nothingburgers, but in like 90% of cases those people should just be ignored/blocked and are jealous over the poster's success
2:00 when she stop using emojis,it was so relatable
bc whenever I got shocked or irritated,I STOP USING EMOJIS 😭
(2:42 first time of hearing Katie cussing 😭😭🔥🔥 btw)
THE FACT THAT I GOT AN AD ABOUT SOME "GROUNDBREAKING AI TOOL" CALLED SHAKKER AI IS INSANE 😭
Not that I approve of AI artwork, but hearing “Your parents are loaded” is the most presumptuous shit I’ve ever heard.
I like this artists style so much. I am surprised you can make money with ai art, especially when it is so bad.
Small claims court. They ain't your friend. Stealing is stealing regardless of how you see it.
peoples sheer audacity to do anything for money scares me, honestly the way I'd prefer to get a few quick bucks would be either selling a lemonade stand for 1 dollar per cup o' lemonade. but I think just making your own art and selling it is better [or doing commissions for art]
Getting backstabbed is just the worst. Betraying one trust is a crime.
This situation is fucked up.
However.
Insulting people who cannot leave their parents' home should have been something that died down pre-2020. There are some people who are functionally invalids (may be offenseive term) or abusive parents that have fucked up the psyche of their children enough for them to not understand leaving.
Additionally there are cultures where people just live with their parents until marriage. This happens in the west as well as other places.
This situation is still fucked up and minors are wildin.
But that was kind of low for you to poke at. "Bro just move out" isn't possible for everyone. Please keep this in mind.
threating to doxxing just for ai art while your art style is not that great is crazy i couldnt even notice that there was eyes or hands
This, Ladies and Gentlemen, is the reason im a introvert.
Thats really messed up i can get how upset they are, art is a special thing.
If they do that with thier friend’s art. They will do that with other things too.
It’s sad because the artist (at least the one In the thumbnail) has a INSANELY good, and unique art style
honestly i would actually turn into the joker if this happened to me
That's the worst betrayal in art history
I've always know this artist and I can't belive their own friend could do that
honestly,,, that looks like a staged case just for hype
The worst part of betrayal is that it never comes from enemies
Twitter man- the fact the artist got dragged on for "making this"- honestly makes my decision to leave the platform behind a good decision. OP is right, considering Twitter is so bent on making sure to ruin other people's lives.
I would gd sue them until the end of time for straight up copyright use and theft because wtf.
The title is crazy and i haven’t even finished the video yet 😭🙏
Can I just say I do not understand how they are making money on this stuff.. like.. who is paying money for it and for what. Who could possibly be that dumb
Ai is a tool to improve yourself
NOT to do disgusting shits like this
Like seriously?
Betraying your frined and not telling them soon as possible but you come and tell them because they posted a post that wasn't even saying them but still has the audacity to ask them to delete it?
This is unacceptable and i can see and feel how that person felt rn, being betrayed by soemone you trust.
I'm not a very good artist but I'm very disgusted on what I've witnessed.
Hope that person doing alright.
Is not like I'm supporting ai or anything, people who use ai and calling them art is disgusting. But if artist use ai as tool to imporve it makes much more sense.
I personally don't hate ai that much, sure is messed up but is a tool. We use the tool, not to use them as weapons.
They have such a cute art style I can’t believe someone close to them would do that behind their back 😕
I didn't think it was that deep until she explained that she profited from the ai pics. Like bro, stealing customers from your friends *WITH* an AI version of their own work is such bs.
Stealing someone’s art for a pc is making my blood boil
2:43 i don't agree with the ai dude, but idk how that person selling random ai pictures can fuck over the original person
It’s just rude and being kinda an asshole
the thing that bothers me personally, is how the AI scammer was able to clearly get customers for their obvious AI stuff, and i haven't been able to get any clients for genuine art or music. (possibly due to bat marketing, and just being in a bit of a burnout recovery, but still)
That friend is no longer that true friend.
I feel like the only art styles that should be fed into AI art styles from cartoons and stuff. Since people are already copying them, make it easier for someone to try and get their character to look in a certain way, without hafting to worry about getting it Exactly right, especially if it's one of the more fancy ones.
I am used to being a CV on DA, and we had people stealing from themselves for social media kloud, because shit like this blows up. Artist in the video could be really a victim, but since then I always take allegations with a grain of salt.
I dabble with AI, but not for profit. It's a virtually endless source of reference material for my own actual art, and none of what I have it generate is shared or for profit.
Yep, saw this as it went down on Twitter. So sad 😭
