"Now enter the AI which can do digital art. Its doing the same thing as the average digital artist, which is to just produce mindless art which it can do much faster and often better. That drops digital arts value to a rock IMO." This last point is so very true IMHO - and that's probably the saddest part about the whole AI…
Largely financial value and from an individual standpoint. Traditional art tends to have strong financial value because each piece is one of a kind and the artist is often selective in terms of what they put out there. Usually the selectiveness tends to involve pieces that are reflective of the artists vision for what they…
The AI apologist brother has some deep seated issues with his artist brother. I'm thinking only one was breast fed, the other got an iv drip. Jensen is a delusion sales guy. People on linkedin were comparing his presentation with Steve Jobs, but the robots in the background were a digital billboard. I thought they would…
Digital art I think has long lost its value due to not only inherent issues such as the ability to easily duplicate files, but also issues that cropped up over time such as sheer oversaturation due to the social media mindset of 'gotta make a new piece every single day to outdo the other guy'. Ultimately all thats…
I've been seeing this sort of thing a lot; person shares objectively cool image, gets a compliment, doesn't mention it was AI. A lot of "I made" "I did" "my" language. I understand liking AI art, but at least be up front about it. He just calls it "digital art".
@OccultMonk I agree largely with what your saying on the blog although there are few things I don't. Lets not kid ourselves here and pretend like we had a paradise before AI came out. Go to social media websites, Artstation, Youtube, DeviantArt especially, etc. Can you honestly say those places weren't already flooded with…
I highlighted the important part. This is the next big Industrial Revolution; I don't think we can stop it and a huge chunks of beginner/intermediate craftsman and artisans are goign to have hard time mastering their craft without it's use. It's essentially coming for everything and is the big leap we somewhat were all…
Meanwhile, on the Artstation store : https://www.artstation.com/marketplace/p/OglYo/300-male-head-sculpt-references-for-artist?utm_source=artstation&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=homepage&utm_term=marketplace These are obviously AI-generated renders, probably prompted as "digital sculpt, realistic, trending on…
I think this goes back to short vs long-term thinking. Even if we expect a linear curve of progress, which is pretty pessimistic, I don't think any position could be considered "safe from replacement" in 10 years' time. we have already seen the early stages of generated 3d models, tileable textures, and now even code. It…
This sounds about right to me. I mean even before AI art this is how I largely design my own 3d characters. just find a few things that I like and mix together. put a little bit of my own twist on it. I mean, everything that anybody could possibly imagine has already been designed a billion different ways, why should I…
