Message: [QUOTE="destinyduelist, post: 145655, member: 134552"] Sigh... Here I go again... The artist yaps about generative AI art... It's a plague, it's not only putting people out of work in an already shitty field where people didn't get paid as it was, it's also making all these randoms on the Internet think they're artists. Writing a prompt for 10 minute or hey, maybe even an hour or two if you're THAT slow, is nothing in comparison to the years artists take to master their craft. No, your AI doesn't make art "better" than other real artists, wanna know why? Because no hand drawn human made art is "bad". Art is subjective and art is a mountain that people climb, "But destinyduelist, if art is subjective how come AI art isn't?" because AI art isn't art. Something that isn't art to begin with can't be "bad". Generative AI art is theft, you're stealing artwork because how do you think those AI models were trained? AI art isn't art simply because there was no effort or emotion put into the piece. And no, you the person that wrote the prompt doesn't count. Your emotion written onto some generative AI isn't real, it belongs to the 1's and 0's of the machine you just fed. Your thoughts and feelings are no longer your own, you've given full custody of them to the machine, and the machine can't feel them when creating "your" art, because it's exactly that. A machine. A feelingless, soulless slop machine generating thousands upon thousands of images that look identical to yours. You're not special, you didn't create anything unique, you just feed the slop machine to generate another image of an anime character that looks almost near identical to the one thousands of other people did. You're not only tracing, but you're doing an advanced version of it. Generative AI isn't just plauging art, so much of it is being used for music too now, for lyrics, even for voice acting if you've been keeping up with what Ubislop is doing. Now, look, I know some people here are going to get really really offended, so let me just say this all applies to people who use it for COMMERICAL PURPOSES. I don't give a damn if you're sitting at home generating Bart Simpson doing backflips on your computer and laughing at how shit it all looks. Unfortunately we can't stop the process and development of generative AI so I can't blame people who just want to try and see what it's all about. But when people start claiming themselves as "AI artists" or even worse trying to advertise themselves using it or selling it in any way shape or form, that's when it becomes a problem. That's when you've become part of the machine. As for generative AI being used as a tool, I mean yeah, that was it's intended purpose. I don't use it at all, but I can see it being applied as a tool to speed up mundane tasks. I don't really know personally what you'd use it for specifically since if I can't draw a hand or something I'll take a picture of my own, but I'm sure there's more niche places where people could apply it.
