I think the one advantage human artists will retain is the ability to leverage shape language, which is the seed of novelty in design. Not that AI can't comprehend it, but it's intangible enough that training for it will be difficult and integrating it into a prompt is nearly impossible. I don't see us getting any iconic…
Really, I've been thinking about the subject for a few days now, and I'm not sure whether to see this technology as an ally or as the nemesis of the artistic industry. What I do know is that currently, as it's presented, I only perceive it as a money-making machine for the companies behind it. I see it more as an…
@Fabi_G Yeah, after a while of thinking, i thought something similar, though the goal of the topic was to make it look as if they never took every piece of imagery from the net and the "alien" made it all it's self & get away with it... If i have too or if a mod wants too they could remove the wordings and put doesn't…
I mean I agree. If you give a man a fish he just ask for another fish tomorrow. So a prompt engineer might "make" art for an entire career as a prompt artist without ever having even known what shape language means. But any time labor saving technology is introduced its not like the people who were laboring are now asked…
I honestly don't think most employers will care. They'll just accept whatever the AI gives and try to modify it a little, then stick with that. They'll attempt to use human hands as little as possible and for the instances they do, because less skill and work in general is needed from a person, it opens the position up for…
I think the truth is...most artists who are working for companies are going to be screwed. 3D Artists are likely to get completely replaced by automation because their entire field is completely made of the technical aspects (i.e. modeling, lighting, retopology) that can easily be automated once the AI gets advanced…
This thread has been a pretty good read all around. Sad, funny, ironic, depressing, and uplifting all in one. How fun. Some random thoughts to toss into the fire. Some of this will be rehashed shit in slightly different words, I just feel like writing again: I think the whole "AI doesn't store data - nothing is stored, so…
I think the one thing that is missing from the people thinking only in "tech terms" is the fact that just because something is now possible to do, doesn't mean that it is "too late to stop it" and that it is the new normal. For instance in France there is a law from 2017 that stipulates that a photograph of a person used…
There's nothing to really gain by embracing AI in the way the tech bros are marketing right now. Ultimately whatever you accomplish easily gets drowned out by the glut of prompt typers. And at every step along the way a well trained artist will still coax out better work from it and be able to process the output in a…
While I personally disagreed with using premade assets in 3D for a beginner I totally understand why it's useful for more experienced 3D artists simply because it saves time filling a scene. I would be lying if I said it wasn't useful to use premade assets and assemble them in a scene, it's working effectively. Whether…
