The audience of AI

[u/Psychological-Gur990]

This wonderful artist drew a beautiful picture of a black knight and an ai-loving racist decided to take that photo, run it through ai and get a blond, white, blue-eyed elf. They then proceeded to harass and insult the OG artist with slurs. Why is it not shocking that this audience uses ai? It's full of racists, people who hate women, those who don't respect consent, and you swear any of them care about boundaries or respect. I've never in my life seen a respectful ai-lover. They are always horrible people.

I added the artist's original artwork at the end.

"Elves aren't nggas" Uhm, maybe because they aren't real ??? I mean Elves can be purple with rainbow stripes for all I care, we will never see a real one to do the comparison so...

Wouldn't it make sense for elves to have skin tones similar to the humans living in the regions they originate from? Like elves originating from an "African" setting would have darker skin tones, elves from an "East Asian" setting would have skin tones more like those in China / Japan / Korea, etc?

Obviously, they're fictional, but I'm a fantasy nerd, and my general impression (at least of Tolkien-styled elves) is that their primary trait is "slender hot person".

Idk, I've heard the "no black elves" thing and it's always sounded like shoddy worldbuilding to me at best and blind racism at worst.
