Correction - Foothill Fiber Works. This group advertises on FB as being a community for the local fiber arts and offers crafting classes to the public, but is using AI for advertising. That doesn’t seem to really fit in with a fiber group full of creatives and artists, and I wonder what its members think. Not only using AI on FB, but they are deleting all comments on their use of AI - and the ones I’ve seen have been polite. Such a shame.

Maybe someone already posted this, but a Slate article on the 60 minutes interview cites quotes from this thread…

I am a little perplexed with all the pushback on crafters/creators using generative AI that no one is really pushing back on Nora of aka Nora Knits…the amount of kitschy AI she uses in every podcast makes it astonishing that the community just seems to eat it up - she has a very health subscriber base. For my YT podcast, I had AI design a super cute logo for me, but after thinking about it more I actually paid a human illustrator to do it because 1. It’s the right thing to do, and 2. TBH I was concerned about being cancelled. What should the community be doing to push back on these creators who are literally (okay figuratively) eating the planet up???
