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 ...
That's actually the deadliest aspect, far worse than loss of jobs. From an artistic standpoint sure I get more crap to add to a mood board, but socially/politically there really needs to be regulation or the whole world is going to lose it. Even categorisaiton would suffice, like on arstation if I do a seach and add the…
Someone on linkedin shared this paper, when I said that the data was unethically sourced https://news.mit.edu/2022/synthetic-data-ai-improvements-1103 It doesn't seem that Open AI's source is synthetic, honestly the whole situation would have been less controversial if they had simply approached artists for training data…
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…
What I think is, current business owners will simply use AI to make the decisions, however they'll still want their cut of millions of dollars. This will continue to drive poor decision making, and the basic pleb will see no benefit whatsoever. It's to be expected that new tech, regardless of positive potential, is…
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…
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…
In effect, we see a permanent weakness of the AI: it can't produce meaningful designs. That requires a combination of design thinking, some real-world grounding, wanting said design to follow a theme, knowing how to balance detail, connect with the audience, art principles such as unity and variety, etc. Keep in mind…
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…
