@sand_castle_university: I'm so good they call it AI. There has been an influx of comments calling my art AI... I have dedicated my life to making sand, not look like sand, only for it to be called fake. Which would not matter if the internet wasn't a HUGE part of my business, but it is. #AI #rant #artist #SmallBusiness
I am an aspiring professional sand sculptor based in NC, and you inspire me!

I have sculpted side by side with you and am amazed at what you’ve built. At the same time, I run an AI creative company, so this clash between what’s real and artificial, new tools and human skill, is very much in my face every day. Adapting our lives, our brains, and how we see the world is going to be a turbulent ride for all of us. There’s no turning back, only the hope that we find new ways to embrace what makes us human, know the difference, and somehow become better through it.

Just so you know, AI has NOTHING on what you can do. AI is honestly trash and has way too many inconsistencies. your art is SPECTACULAR. 💙

Yeah I get it. Thinking just a photo is ai and all- but ai process videos? And using your actual videos and tweaking them? Man…that is frustrating. Well I think your business is unique and it’s pretty amazing you make a living doing it- and no ai poser can take that away.
