The AI apologist brother has some deep seated issues with his artist brother. I'm thinking only one was breast fed, the other got an iv drip. Jensen is a delusion sales guy. People on linkedin were comparing his presentation with Steve Jobs, but the robots in the background were a digital billboard. I thought they would…
You'd be surprised how often game artists have been scared of technology making their skillset worthless, but it never ends up being the case. Having to learn how to use normal maps, the rise of sculpting apps, photogrammetry, the popularity of asset stores, procedural generation, etc.
Whatever their attempts or solutions they seem to care about money so go after their profits and that is how this situation gets corrected quickly, if some "gov" is attempting to "hear" "the people", then voice that, if they are using materials from living artists, those living artists should be compensated automatically…
lol. An over-generalization to be sure, but it does have a decent ring of truth to it. I am particularly amazed at former colleagues of mine who constantly use and trumpet generative ai on social media (like LinkedIn) even though I know they are skilled 3d artists in their own right. I get that they want to stay on top of…
I've been seeing this sort of thing a lot; person shares objectively cool image, gets a compliment, doesn't mention it was AI. A lot of "I made" "I did" "my" language. In a 3d software you can load some premade assets and click a button to render the image. Did you now create and render the image? Or was it the software?…
Yes I read the linked article where James Cameron goes into the design of the Navi and says, "the more alien we make them in the design phase, we just kept asking ourselves — basically, the crude version is: "Well, would you wanna do it?" And our all-male crew of artists would basically say, "Nope, take the gills out." It…
@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…
AI isn't threatening anyone's jobs. I've already put it to the test as a solo developer. It doesn't even threaten 2d artist's jobs; we need the PSD files to be able to do cool stuff with it, like UI design elements. Images with prebaked colour, linework and lighting are useless. 1-off 'hero' artworks used for things like…
one step at a time, moodboards used to be painted, sometimes photosourced. now the painting part might be gone.it's not like, just because you are no concept artist, it doesnt effect you or might not sooner or later.there are companies and products known for cheap labour, their current artists get tasked with cleaning up…
