    Thanks, Lunaryth, for posting some of the most peak content there is. Hopefully I find you somewhere else once the site shuts down.

    Imagine being such a miserable POS that you have to put down others for pursuing art, just because they don't do it the same way you do.

    Ai art isnt stealing. Educate yourself before following crowd sentiment.

    Some AI art is stealing. but there is no way of knowing which, and that is the problem. Must people will just assume that every genai model has scraped art without consent. Unfortunately everyone seems to have black and white opinions in a grayscale world.

    Damn rip. Maybe you can return to /sdg/ until you make your own booru or something? Your stuff is top shelf.

    So, people who don't even come here and like the stuff here are punishing for this site to be closed? Isn't that the internet in a nutshell? If every site had to close just because people didn't like it, there would be zero internet. BD should stand their ground and not do what the idiot masses want.

    That this is happening in the furry community is staggeringly hypocritical.
    What argument has been made for the rights of furries to exist; to be allowed to express themselves, enjoy each other's company, and to be left alone by those who do not share their interests and values;
    What such argument does not apply equally here.

    Big AI needs to be regulated and held accountable, before it polutes our water, screams into the quiet nights of our communities, and possibly brings about the extinction of the human race, but
    nit-picking how furries get off is not the way that battle will be won.
    Shutting down a well-managed furry sight will is not progress toward eliminating AI slop.

    If you choose to share your art publically, and you are good at it, there will be people who imitate you.
    This has always been true. It is true for every medium.
    We have seen it with AI scraping, but
    We have seen it with tracing before that.
    We do see it every day in 3D physical media.
    How many knock-off transformers are out there, obvious copies of existing characters?
    Hasbro (that evil cesspool of... I digress.) just has to grin and bear it.

    If you want to fight plagerism;
    Support sites (like e6ai) with responsive and proactive moderation.
    Call out specific individuals for their specific theft, just as you would when you catch someone tracing other artist's work.
    Support artists by paying for commissions.

    Stop blaming the tool for the workman's crimes.

    Just an FYI but posting thinly veiled artist hate and conspiracies justifying it in a roundabout way are part of the reason no one likes AI and it's proponents and are only proving them right on every front. The fact that e6ai existed in the first place, by the same people that made a regular art booru, was always a double edged sword and the fact it survived for as long as it did is honestly a miracle. A lotta people could use being a bit more mindful of the tools they are using, and especially of the artists they are literally prompting.

    One basic question: Why are they taking down E6AI? Its certainly well supported with an abundancy of posts. Were they brow-beat by the hand-doodlers to end it? What happened?

    Vocal minority of anti ai individuals whom proclaimed themselves as artists do not like ai art, as they can no longer charge obscene amount of money just to satisfy somebodys sexual fetish. If you learn basics of inpainting and have at least semi decent hardware you can generate better images than those ¨artists¨ ever painted, that pisses them off.

    Guess what drawing animal genitalia does not make you real artist, and making furry porn is not a real job.

    Huh. Any good programs that would download my favorites for me, adding at least some selected tags in the filenames or something? I'm honestly too lazy to do that by hand.

    I made this script for those of you wishing to download a bunch of images.

    https://hastebin.com/share/uhebicavag.php

    Just paste it into a powershell window in the directory you want the images saved and give your tags (fav:<yourusername> will get all your favorites, works with normal e6ai search query syntax as well.)

    If you have a lot of favorites, it will take quite some time to download. The script intentionally does not download images in parallel to be nice to the e6ai servers.

    Obligatory DON'T RUN RANDOM POWERSHELL SCRIPTS ON YOUR COMPUTER IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY DO. If you aren't scripting savvy, throw it into an LLM or even google AI search and ask if it is safe.

    Im going to say it sorry not sorry. The artwork here is WAY better than e621 regular.. Ai or not.. yes real artists are a good thing but if I want to look up certain characters I come here first. I installed this site on my phone.. not the other. Ai isn't going away as much as people bitch.. they did the same when the internet came out.. hell anything new.. people are karens.. plain and simple im editing this because genners here ARE real artists.. I know how much time you put into your work

    civitai.red is also another good alternative for AI images for those who want to find somewhere to go find content

    civitai.red is an absolute mess. I can't even begin to understand how it works. There are some interesting furry works, but no artist gallery linked to them. It looks more like DA (which I never understood either) that to e6ai or any regular image board.

    From an insider I spoke to: E6AI is being shut down due to pushback from the broader community and a series of targeted campaigns, not because the BD or E621 staff gave up on the site.

    AI gens are still, and will likely remain for a long time, deeply unpopular in a community created and dominated by physical creatives, as well as much of society at large. Whether that should be the case is academic.

    BD and E6 received a massive amount of hate for even starting a dedicated AI gallery in the first place, but it was believed that denying the medium entirely wasn't the right move, and that this new tool should be given its own space to explore and curated the same way that E6 itself is (including having upload standards, which was its own, separate drama). I'm sure it was hoped that, over time, it would be left alone to do its own thing. But, again, folks within the larger community caused a scene that forced decisions to be made.

    I’m incredibly happy that you’ve started posting again! Please keep this style.
    Edit: I’ve only just found out that the site is closing down. I’d really like to keep following your work. Do you have a telegram channel, twitter, reddit, or bluesky, civit?

    That means a lot, thank you! Since yesterday I've been establishing some socials for those that want to stay in touch and are still interested in the gens. I'm not sure which I'll be using or if I'll be using all of them. I'm also open to suggestions from those more in the know than I!

    Can't edit the post anymore so I will post it here.

    Since they just announced that we are no longer able to upload, this will be my last post here and your last chance to join. There are also some other great directors posting over on Discord as well.
    Even though the site had very strict upload rules and some of my posts ended up getting deleted, I still had a lot of fun on the platform and got to meet some amazing people along the way. I want to thank everyone who enjoyed my gens!
    To any director who is losing their main posting platform with this shutdown, my Discord is always open for you if you can't find anywhere else to post. For anyone else, I really hope you find a new home for your work, and I wish you all a bright and happy future.
    Goodbye to everyone!

    rule34.xxx will still exist and it has no problems with furry AI posts. Maybe FINALLY we can get an AI page on a certain furry art site this place seems to take exception to being mentioned.

    rule34.xxx, inkbunny.net, danbooru.domain.us accept AI gens, but the overall quality is abysmal compared to e6ai. I still can't understand why they don't want this site to go on. I don't think it's a money matter. And what will become of all the well tagged art uploaded? Will they just delete the DB? Will it be added to e621?
