"3D software is only for lazy people who need a computer to paint for them, it's not real art because the 'artist' doesn't do anything but push buttons" Somebody old enough to remember this war? :) I've never been able to get AI to actually show me what I want. Welcome to the art of text prompt ...
I think this whole thing is overblown when it comes to the legal aspects. From what I'm understanding, AI learns by studying existing art to look for meaningful patterns, then creates art using those patterns. People learn art in a similar fashion, i.e. breaking down a painting made by another artist to study, then apply…
Lol, why art of course, though I am wondering how much representation I should have in my portfolio when it comes to the race and age of the characters. I try to think of this aspect more as showcasing that I can create a good range of different characters. DEI is supposed to impact my application positively since I'm…
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…
"Now enter the AI which can do digital art. Its doing the same thing as the average digital artist, which is to just produce mindless art which it can do much faster and often better. That drops digital arts value to a rock IMO." This last point is so very true IMHO - and that's probably the saddest part about the whole AI…
@ModBlue what do you mean by value in this case though? do you mean like, what will artist do in order to enjoy their craft and find personal value? Or market value? If market value I think i'd disagree because there is never going to be a market for anybody to do things in a slower way. I mean, there would be some niches,…
I would argue illustrators may have it the worst out of all those who want to be independent artists and specifically those who do digital illustration. Thats an area the AI can easily replicate and to be fair....there already wasn't much of any monetary value in it anyhow even before the AI came along. Those who did…
Remember the "Make Art" button? Ironic, huh..? :D I´m mostly writing here to express my support for the people protesting against AI. Unlike many others I don´t share the optimistic point of view on Artstation though. I don´t think that a platform that behaves like this is reformable and I do believe that there should be…
Thats like showing your son a photograph and saying that Monet ought not to have painted. There is more to art than the final product. If AI is popular now its more among people that want to cash in on it, even if just an ego boost they are getting from likes on instagram and facebook. Not sure how this would be monetized…
Sure it can. But for what reason? And what exactly do you want to put under punishment? Looking at public available images? Painting in the style of a living artist? That's all things that human artists does too. Imho the real reason why AI is hated is because it is a competitor for traditional artists. And because of hurt…
