Three reasons not to share AI images

I can think of many reasons why the sharing of AI "Art" in online knitting and crochet groups is not a good idea. 

But after the amazing comments and feedback on my recent Instagram post it was clear that I had touched a bit of a nerve. My post seemed to have summed up what many were thinking but didn't know how to say it.

Part of the feedback involved people who asked for something short and snappy - a few words or an image that they could use to help them when commenting on such fake images.

Please note, the intention is not to 'cause trouble' here or to 'spoil people's fun'. Instead the aim is to draw attention to the existence of such AI images, for people who may not even be aware what it is, how it's created or why it's a huge potential problem for our industry.

And if people know that these images are fake, then hopefully they will be less inclined to share them. After all, I'm sure they wouldn't share fake news.

Please feel free to screenshot and use this image as you wish - or just feel free to drop people a link to this blog post.

Anything that raises awareness of these AI images has to be a good thing at this point.
