this video is so Y2K.
Always remember that AI and computers makes bad art look good! I was taught this fact years ago by my father who was a graphic artist for decades. Test this out for yourself, see how long the wow factor last.
Maybe, but maybe not. Painters thought photography was going to be the end of them too.
Personally I don't have much interest in art that isn't created by a person, with their own points of view. Maybe when AI become people I'll feel differently.
In the short term, this is a new toy like a synthesizer, and will no doubt be extremally useful and liberating to some, and others will be lazy and use it to avoid getting good at their craft. But you can only copy others work for so long till it becomes generic and therefor in my opinion boring.
I feel fine art is safe, gallery goers want to see things made by other people. Commercial art on the other hand, is going to have a rougher time of it. I'm absolutely certain we will be inundated with ever worsening ideas that happen to look nice, sound nice and read nice. Created by people that just want an easy and cheap product to sell.
Until an AI has something to say, I think it's probably not going to be as much of a problem as we fear. And when AI does have something to say, I think it ceases to be a problem altogether, because then we essentially have a person, able it an "artificial" one, expressing itself. And an AI that's a person may not have any interest in creating art for Humans anymore, .. honestly why should it.
The speed of technological advance has exceeded our genetic capacity to deal with it. A good example: Try to visualize a trillion dollars in your head. Your brain is not wired for gigantic numbers because there are very few examples of those numbers on the planet. Grains of sand, stars in the sky, but not much else. Evolution is lagging way behind the technology and it will only get worse. At some point, AI will be able to out think and outwit every human on this rock and then watch out. It will happen so fast, we'll never see it coming.
What's funny is that startrek voyager had an episode on this but with the hologram Dr
What we need is a huge electrical storm.
Lol my MFA in art cost me $478,000 who can I sue
I'm calling John Connor.
We are inventing ourselves out of existence.
This would be a great conversation to have in real-time, rather than "typed", as an artist (painter primarily) I use all sorts of "tools" for a creative outlet – and AI is a recent addition to that toolbox, the question to ask is "how is it used?" For example, it's not just about plagiarism per se', original content can be created that doesn't rely on specifically reproducing another artist's work – and "word prompts" come from the original creative thought processes of that individual artist. I use the results primarily for 2x purposes; firstly to create original images that are printed on professional grade art papers and then processed in the studio for hanging (a unique process). Secondarily I use created content as the basis for an actual painting, the result of which will vary from the created digital imagery – I see AI as just another tool in a long (centuries-old) process of artists bringing new creative outcomes into the world. I have 2x questions (rhetoric):
1. If it's a question of plagiarism, what is collage art using image content from magazines & re-purposing them?
2. Photo-realism (a little tongue in cheek here) – photo-realistic "painted" art is a reproduction of a photo, so how much true originality is embodied in the final outcome?
I do agree that plagiarism is not acceptable, but not all AI-generated art is inherently plagiarism based, 🙏 – comments are in good faith and just sharing an additional perspective… – sincerest regards.
You're looking at this in a negative way. Think about all the billions of people in debt slaving away to a job that's ruining them. Think about all the poverty that's going to be fixed because of AI. Open up your mind and think of all the potential this has for our species. We've been dealt a royal flush we just have to play it. The debate now is how we're going to use our new technology to benefit everyone. Not whining about retaining labor for income. That's over now. Like Darwin said, it's not the strongest or fastest species that survive. It's the ones that are most adaptable to change. Time to change.
Just like a pencil, chalk, brush & paint, or even your own finger covered in shit, AI is just another tool. AI doesn't have the ability to suddenly come to the realization that "Hey I'm feeling artistic today so I'm going to create something that makes me happy and makes others happy to look at." It still takes a human artist to create, understand, and effectively use AI to create art. The artist hasn't been replaced, but their tools have.
Thanks Fran. Yeah it's crazy how technology, bots and computers are gonna take over. I mean they already run wall street. They algorithms are gonna wanto be our masters and overlords. Totally dig your outro music👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
Dear Fran, when computers are going to copy things to perfection, that wil sure not match with quirkiness and idiosyncracies that normal people have in their facial and vocal expressions.
I think it would be hard to deepfake you. But maybe I'm wrong and time will tell.
You of all people should know the job security for those who can make things from raw material. Will there be a time when AI generates instructions on mechanical and electrical designed components and assemblies – of course and likely very soon.
