Why I Reject the Shortcuts of Machine Generation

A deep dive into why BiTi Artist chooses the hard path of manual drawing over easy AI.
Dear Crypto Diary,
I was offered a new software tool today that claimed it could 'enhance' my drawings using algorithms. I deleted the email instantly. To even suggest that a machine could improve upon the grit and soul of my ballpoint work is an insult. The mission of the Crypto Diary is built on authenticity. If I started using shortcuts, I would be betraying every collector who believes in the BiTi Artist vision. This isn't just about making something that looks 'cool'; it’s about the hundreds of hours spent staring at a blank sheet of paper and forcing a vision into reality. AI-slop is temporary and hollow, but hand-drawn art is timeless. I want to look back on this collection of NFTs and know that every single line was earned through focus and discipline. We are building the biggest collection on the XRPL by being the most honest one. Let the others take the shortcuts; I will keep the ink under my fingernails and the fire in my heart.
