I’m using them as I type this, so I highly recommend them. I read the full TOS and privacy policy etc and they’re safe for your art (everything housed locally etc). However it takes up 4 gig of space minimum and the GPU needs to be beefy, I literally sank 1200 USD of my wages into a new gaming laptop just to use it without it turning my computer into a paperweight. Super worth it! But like it’s worth knowing beforehand.

I’m the only person I know who uses these tools and it makes me feel like I’m going crazy bc other artists in my sphere aren’t taking the threat of ai seriously 😭
