A few questions? Is A.I. trained and can work without Image Libary because it has some fundamental understanding when i mean "chainmail" or lookd it every time for reference pictures? Some AI. works looks fantastic. Looks like a dozen Screenshots of a movie BUT never was the Character or Monster etc... the same everytime…
i am not trying to get rid of this competitor, as i know i can not. I do what i always do. make nice art and hope it will all be good, that there will be people who we work with who value art done by hand and that there will be people who will not. there are already clients who we do not work with for various reasons,…
I do feel that posting here on polycount and also making a mention on LinkedIn likely works better than artstation if you are looking for employment. I understand that recruiters do browse artststion but every recruiter I've spoken to found my artstation profile from LinkedIn.
"I just try to think of every possible angle and then see what could actually be done to effect any change." Well, for instance, that would be things like : taking hours out of one's day to contact the curating and marketing teams of said museum in order to let them know about the nature of the images that were sold to…
"I'm not seeing how the AI is any different than a person here" It doesn't matter. A human observing a picture to get inspired by is something that is accepted in the social contract, and it doesn't break any law. On the contrary, an entity using a picture that they don't own the rights of and making it a part of a piece…
I think this whole thing is overblown when it comes to the legal aspects. From what I'm understanding, AI learns by studying existing art to look for meaningful patterns, then creates art using those patterns. People learn art in a similar fashion, i.e. breaking down a painting made by another artist to study, then apply…
I totally agree that the data created from training should be considered exactly the same as directly copying images and applying a filter to them in photoshop. You are still deriving a product from the original work, doesn't matter how convoluted the process is. The fair use doctrine needs to be updated to account for…
@Tiles I get that you like AI, but every single one of your posts in this thread are just you saying "false claim" without giving a good reason why it's a false claim, and ignoring all the thoughtful stuff between the "false claims". This WHOLE thread basically amounts to: AI uses art made by artists to build its database;…
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…
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…
