Ai CROCHET SCAMS

Ai, or a people problem?

With Ai accessible to everyone, and pretty popular, Ai isn't going anywhere anytime soon, and you have to admit that it has its usefulness. Though, there are haters of AI that fear where it may lead us.

Personally I'm a glass half full kind of person, and am on the fence about Ai.

Even though none of us know for sure where Ai is taking us, it is definitely cause for concern when you see people up to their same old tricks.

You recognize Ai pictures by now, right? You know the ones you see and think that it just can't be real. 

There is abundant use of Ai crochet claiming to give you a free link to the pattern. This is more than likely TOM FOOLERY and people trying to scam you in some way, be leery of some sort of cyber attack when following links like this.

These links all tend to have the same sort of address. (I'm not authority.)

It would be okay to say something like, "Hey, check out this crochet art I made with Ai!" And post a pic. I did. 😅 Here you go.

But you can not sell the pattern to this, (or give it away), if that pattern does not really exist. 

The stitches seen in the above picture are not real stitches, and it was made using Ai.

Try to ask Ai to write you a pattern, and more than likely, you will get a shell of what resembles a pattern, not an actual crochet pattern.

In my experiences, Ai has not quite figured out how to write complete crochet patterns.

 So if someone tells you that an unrealistic looking crochet item has a pattern link, please be leery to follow it, as it might just be an attempt to exploit you.

This one was the latest to catch my eye. I had to look very closely, and still wasn't for certain. I mean I could figure it out how to make it given enough time. And it is so pretty!

The picture above contained a link saying that it was to the pattern. I followed it, it was NOT.

I can not find a pattern for these shells anywhere, and do not believe that it really exists.

While you will find me liking posts like this, you will not find me following their links, usually. And I WARN bEwAre. This is potentially a scam!

Ai didn't do that. People did.

Like it or not, Ai is useful, and can do so very much.

We must use it wisely.
