Top text: "Hello,
I recently applied to the [REDACTED] event under my business, Mimsy's Stitches. As I have not been approved and charged for the full booth fee as of right now, I'd like to withdraw my application.
The use of AI hurts artists and makers, and it's very concerning to see it be used to nonchalantly by somone whose job is so ingrained in local artistry. My business and others like it suffer because AI steals our work to make silly, fun trend things. As such I can bring my business to this event.
Thank you,
Miriam Sonnen
Mimsy's Stitches"
Bottom text: "Also, a friendly reminder that YOU HAVE POWER. I applied to an event by the org that posted the AI art, and I sent this yesterday to withdraw my app. Now, the past has been taken down. Idk if i was the catalyst but either way DON'T DISCOUNT YOUR OWN POTENTIAL IMPACT"](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:tmjgktquoosc64jz73q7ickc/bafkreiesl6633cdmhionhe3v5dtdtmmpaawmrqs2mpqdlvrtzw2xebwpmm)
