Things being turned on by default when installing software is definitely a dark pattern. The fact that one has to read everything like a hawk is just wrong, but here we are. also 1-button-press = game-ready-retopo when? :D I would submit data for that
I am not sure where you try to head to with this question. There is none in Photoshop. Photoshop works with mouse input. This is where it differs. Well, it has hotkeys too. But text input is nothing new really. The first text adventures worked with text. And text adventures are also games.
@Tiles Okay. Noting this is a game art forum, I think it's safe to assume a large majority of the members in the discussion here understand that Photoshop, Maya, Zbrush, etc. are graphics software. I think what's central to the topic is the impact of AI's standout feature of rapidly converting text prompts into images.
One thing I've noticed is these AI cultists cheer that "you have nothing to fear as long as you don't suck" Trouble is, sucking is a big part of the journey of becoming an artist. If you want to be an artist you have to accept that you will suck for many years. After you stop sucking, you start making beautiful images or…
Great post! I am not sure I agree with the quoted part. I think that is more like a result of over-competitive space where the employers have exploited the common youthful desire to fit-in, conform, and prove themselves to maximum extent. It is toxic and I don't think sustainable for a career, which might be part of the…
I Was just playing the recently released translation + voiceover patch, and the opening made me more hype for it than any recent CG "cinematic trailer" (AI or otherwise) could ever do :) I also think that this game in general is a perfect demonstration of how there is really never a need for more and more resources being…
@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,…
look guys, artists aren't nazis except for that one sussy baka Austrian no one cares about. Lets not put blame on anyone for how the industry is today; this is a systemic problem, the natural result of like two decades worth of supply exceeding demand. Shittons of starry-eyed students looking to get in, and simply not…
@pior thats a great thing that you did! as far as arguing with the AI bros, I mean you could just view that as a form of feedback by which you measure you success in persuasion with them. Just because I say the same thing as them doesn't mean I hold all the same views, ya know. Hitler loved dogs and I also love dogs. The…
How much time do we have left to have the real possibility of earning income and being able to continue working in CGI, video games, design, and any other trade where the creative process of 2D/3D/texturing is involved? I have discovered some tools that frighten me and add to the list of things that threaten our work and…
