It doesn't make sense to publish in a portfolio that we are good at AI. The "real value" of AI is that you don't need to know anything to use them, they are designed for anyone to be able to request things. The idea that you need to study to use them is a result of marketing, AIBros, and internet AI courses/scams.…
The core part of the problem is most AI advocates don't know how the human brain works, particularly in regards to creative matters. Thus their whole argument is being made from a faulty assumption that they understand when they don't. They're partially right in that the AI can learn what its being fed, but it can't…
"select all of the images of a crosswalk" Ironically, these photo-based Captchas (or rather, ReCaptchas) were designed to train the Google AI model for self driving cars, and barely anyone was aware of it when using the service. Sounds familiar ... Same goes for the earlier version showing lowres house street numbers (also…
Off-topic, but I really wish games would be less efficient in the parts that matter. Is open world design not the cancer that killed games? Going bigger means optimizing pipelines for throughput so multiple designers can work on the same map at once without conflict. There's no space for authorial intent anymore. It's…
Does anybody use anything AI in actual game content production currently? I just wonder because I am trying for quite a while. Ai textures >> total crap. Except very limited number of subjects in Sampler maybe and I still prefer Substance Designer nevertheless . Ai models are a polygon mess . AI lods , no much of a…
@NikhilR did your read those articles or just the headlines? first article looks and reads like clickbait, so i went to the link it cited as being the source for a concept artist claiming that director was a weirdo about the characters. ctrl+f search doesnt bring up the directors name or the term director in the article. I…
I'd say FromSoftware is way more efficient than say, Ubisoft or Blizzard. They are making games cheaper and now starting to make sales like the bigger guys who were stuck in arms race. from an artist perspective I think their games have more value because it is largely the passion project of a single mind, rather than…
I think the one advantage human artists will retain is the ability to leverage shape language, which is the seed of novelty in design. Not that AI can't comprehend it, but it's intangible enough that training for it will be difficult and integrating it into a prompt is nearly impossible. I don't see us getting any iconic…
Meh ... - AI in its current form is still unethical vomit/litteral art and identity theft. So even if it can look appealing nothing justifies it. - Writer-directors can do anything they want and don't have to explain themselves if they want a character of any ethnicity and any sex-appeal. - There's a reason why "DEI" in…
I honestly don't think most employers will care. They'll just accept whatever the AI gives and try to modify it a little, then stick with that. They'll attempt to use human hands as little as possible and for the instances they do, because less skill and work in general is needed from a person, it opens the position up for…
