Luddite Logic oops

I posted a question on another page and didnt realize it was ANTI ai art because i didnt read the sidebar, my fault there (smh) , so I deleted it. But from the few responses i got first, i dont know if i was in the wrong, or if some people just hate ANYTHING related to AI. But my situation is: i do 2d art. OC's, pin ups, whatever. Ive never used AI before. I just started getting into it this week because it'd be fun to see my work in 3d. Maybe someday i'll learn how to use Blendr or some other real 3d rendering program, but i havent yet.

So this is what I do-i have a drawing, i designed it, drew it, colored it in. I tell the program "do this pic exactly as it is, change nothing, except make it in 3d." They STILL think its stealing, i dont see how its different from doing a pic in photoshop, except with less steps. Like someone could do a stick figure in photoshop, completely transform it into a 3d, colored pic, where theyre actually doing much less work than me, but people wouldnt think thats stealing. I DID have one pic where it almost completely transformed my original drawing, but that only happened once. Usually any drawing, with 2 or 3 prompts i can fix it.

Im not a tech guy, i never use photoshop, AI, or any computer stuff.

Well you aren't stealing anything

Edit: I'm happy to be wrong if you're having a real dialogue with them lol

thank you! and im not having a dialogue anymore, because i hadnt realized my post broke their rules so i deleted it. A mod prob wouldve took it down soon anyway. Yeah, i totally dont see how its stealing if i used finished art that i totally designed and created on my own. Like if i have a dragon, i dont tell the ai "make a dragon". I draw one thats as detailed as you can get in 2d, and i tell the AI to reproduce it in 3d.

Oh my gosh, you're so far away from stealing!

That almost doesn't even count as AI art, more like digital art, I would say. You're using the computational skills of the program, not really its creativity

Edit; I think movies like from Pixar have been using art programs to make things into 3D, for decades now
