This is hardly a good comparison. The decent thing to do is to credit the asset maker, list what you used and most importantly, pay for the asset. Just like you paid for all the software in your pipeline. The artist also makes a choice of the assets to purchase. Amongst numerous other decisions, scene layout, converting…
Didn't follow the point at all if you think artist are the nazis. if you reread more carefully i think you'll see that everything i am saying is complimentary to what you are saying, even if some of it seems antagonistic.
Since this technology is projected to wipe out jobs that tend to generate significant tax income (e.g. I read that plenty of middle management positions might well be on the cutting block within a few years time) I'm pretty sure the law will catch up with them. Lobbying - in my opinion - only goes so far if the very bottom…
Well, it's not so much a matter of candidates sneaking in anything, and more of a matter of AI bros flooding companies with applications because they're so "10x" compared to artists ...
i agree its just one small facet of the larger race to the bottom we are all stuck in. thats what i was talking about earlier in the thread. but sadly people tend to only care about things once it effects them directly. an artist has their job threatened and suddenly culture is doomed. but when countless others before went…
You said it yourself, "his sincere desire to continue to draw and become an artist because that's how he feels most connected to others and regulates his own well being." — he sounds like a true artist, someone who needs to do art for his own human reasons. This should never be discouraged, even if it becomes unlikely as a…
Well Napster was out for quite a while before the lawsuits came rolling. And the world didn't need the DMCA either - until we did. It takes a while for laws to catch up to new tech. A single artist dedicating their life to imitate Van Gogh is flattering. But AI that can do this in a matter of seconds with every artist on…
I hope you're absolutely right with these words. I'm feeling a lot of anxiety these days. Like many other artists, I've put all my eggs in the basket of 3D art for audiovisual productions of any kind. If this way of making a living is compromised, I don't know if I'll be able to adapt to another field. A universal basic…
If you could currently be replaced by an anonymous outsource artist then yes, the robot will take your job and it'll probably happen in the next couple of years. In practice I strongly doubt that anyone currently employed will be directly replaced by a robot . Instead what will probably happen is that studios will rely…
Its kinda the reason why atleast in AAA studios at the moment I've learned from colleagues that AI's primary use has been moodboards and to an extent generative fill. So far there isn't a push to AI based texturing or modelling though studios are looking to develop inhouse solutions to automate many of these processes and…
