So how do we feel about the fresh NovelAI V5?
>>109615263>>109615271wow its literally just an advertisement huh/g/ in 2026 I guessfuck off.
>>109615314>new tech thing comes out>retarded for talking about it on tech board You are mentally subnormal
>>109615263>pay for unlimited gens>well no not really lol
>>109615263Impressive composition, horrible fucking look, usage limits on the "unlimited" tier are unaccptable.4.5 creates simpler, but much better looking images.
You all should be ashamed of yourselves. Artists are the backbone of our community and you are just blatantly STEALING THEIR HARD EARNED WORKS FROM THEM all for what? $25? $25 to take their livelihoods and to generate ILLEGAL CP? Kill yourselves, all of you
>>109615263Some genned writing is starting to barely climb the close side of the uncanny valley, but it's still soulless slop. Anyone using AI tools for tone or prose is hurting themselves, their readers, and the world.
>>109616756Sorry, no more charging $80 for mediocre cartoon porn
>>109616756I couldn't care less>>109616776make your own then
>>109615271>>109615263it still ultimately look like shit compared to local gen AI. I don't see the purpose of this dog shit unless they can actually make it nice looking when it not.
>>109616756I am an artist too though.
>>109617107diference between spending $6000 on a 5090 or $3000 on a 3090 vs like $10 a month on a website matters a lot
>>109617194i guess but its still ultra shit looking.
>NovelAI
>>109615263AI "art" cannot be art
>>109617447You lost snailcat
>>109615435>new techit's not new tech, same now old shit diffusion, only new implementation iteration, not even local model and on top of that paid service with "free" hook, so yep, this shit has fuck all to do with tech, buy an ad.>anime generator>>>/a/
>>109615263>>109615271>v5 has weekly image limit Dead on the arrival
>>109616719 >>109616737It's still unlimited on the pre-v5 things. As usual, people exploiting the shit out of things is why we can't have nice things.
>>109617107>>109617194After you spend dozens of hours setting up your graphs, too. And then even more hours when you need to update stuff (which is constantly if you want to get good gens). Nevermind the money it's a huge amount of work to get results on par with NovelAI.NovelAI gets 95% of the way there for 10 bux. In fact by the local models I've seen compared to my degenerate vore gens on NovelAI I'd say it's only the top 5% or so of local users who get equal or better results than NovelAI.
>>109615435>new tech comes outIt's not new tech, anon. It's a new website. We don't need to talk about every new website that comes out.
I have a question for the people here. What programs do AI artists with at least 300+ paid subscribers on Patreon or other sponsorship platforms use?I’ve been serializing a dialogue-driven, medium-length story series as a hobby on a small Discord server. The reception was pretty good, so I recently opened a Patreon. I only used an early local model back in 2023 and have been using NovelAI (NAI) ever since. However, moving beyond a hobby to regularly delivering monthly content to subscribers made me realize how expensive it actually is.Because I’m a perfectionist, I always try to push for total perfection—for a 30 to 40-page comic with dialogue, I end up generating around 500 to 1,000 sample images. Generating 500 images burns through all my Opus subscription credits. I’ve spent $140 on extra credits this month alone, which feels like a total waste.Are there any exclusive communities, Discord servers, or Telegram chat rooms specifically for AI NSFW creators? Does everyone use local models? My PC specs aren't great. I’m really curious about what top-tier creators with thousands of subscribers—like Potion or helltoyou—are using
