If you still use DeviantArt...or haven't in a while...
UPDATE: DevArt changed their minds:
Update: We heard the community feedback, and now ALL deviations are automatically labeled as NOT authorized for use in AI datasets. https://t.co/QnTPc3TA8a pic.twitter.com/pnQVgIsFkA

Original post:
Know that you have to manually opt-out each piece if you do not want it opted-in for an AI art training program. This sucks. They could have allowed people to opt-in instead.
If the artist has died or abandoned their account, their art is fair game for the AI art trainer. The software part doesn't bother me, but the sourcing of images sure does!
thanks to @DeviantArt I'll have to spend hours opting every single one of @QinniArt's artworks out of AI datasets.
They could have at least made it possible to opt-out of AI datasets on an account-by-account basis, but no. We have to do this the hard way.
