sharing my journey as a 25 y/o creative entrepreneur.
welcome to my youtube channel! my name is casey. i'm a lifelong entrepreneur that has leveraged my design ability to build 7-figure businesses. i currently run an e-commerce clothing brand and design agency from bali, indonesia. i hope you enjoy my videos, and if you do, please consider subscribing 🙏
not sure if anyone here is still trying to use Luma but I think it's overwhelmed, I'm waiting 24+ hours for images to generate. Maybe the backlog is for "free version" users like myself, not sure if the paid version gets better results.
I hope you guys realize that an entire art community has been crashing economically since AI has been more public. People are losing jobs, houses, sources of income and some of us are literally starving now. Please do your research.
Then let ai earn/ receive the money. Human get money for there art, because they do the artwork. Humans get money because they use ai that has stolen humans artwork, so the robbers are not the ai, the humans are. Do the ai users give a credit or money to the original artists? Ai a tool to play, ok, so work of art that generate money is a game everybody kann play. People get killed or dies because of no money to buy food, it’s just a game we play, weapons are just a tool to play. Are the big ai users like instagram and others respect the artists? They make money of artists and don’t paying them back or respect them, Adobe is in the critics. If we Artist use references in a speed painting/ Timelapse we show our references or give them respect to calling the names of the artists we used dad references. What do the robbers do? Showing art that is stolen, training there ai with specific artworks of a certain artist, to let the ai creating a specific style of an artist who is famous or known. It’s not that artists are angry about ai because they’re taking them there jobs, they are angry because they can’t do a thing against the robbing industry / social media platforms / Software Giants / Ai users who make money of there styles though using ai software. Ai abuses are just a mirror how the world fxcking itself. The world with it financially system is connected and cause massive problems, when justice a problem is? Is ai fair? Yes, ai maybe is, humans, the most aren’t and less trying. Ai is a mirror because we make financial systems, A-Bombs, big and small weapons, big and small ai software, big and small environmental change / environmental pollution, small and big drugs, small and big financial damage and small and big suffer, without thinking about ourselves, what we do, what we creating, what we do to ourselves. Ai is not the problem, humans will make a problem out of it, because we doesn’t accept we aren’t capable of the capability of the tree of knowledge. Beware who we work for, truth or the lie?
What you are asking of artists is to just get on with it. What artists are asking for really is "Stop duplicating our work if you are not going to pay us". Yes, of course they will get on with it. But that does not mean they should not demand for laws/regulations. Laws that will ensure that credit and compensation reaches them, when clearly, it's the artists' works that make the foundation of all AI generated images. It is a Content Renaissance, not a Creative one.
I'm mainly annoyed by AI art not because of it 'replacing real artists', but because there's a gross over-saturation of them on the art sites i'm on. most commonly deviantart and rule 34. i can't yoink it knowing it was generated by a computer and not having actual artist input and soul it's like the mcdonald's of art. it's quick, easy, and tastes alright, but at the end of the day it's manufactured slop and it's never gonna have the same quality and feel of home cooked or restaurant food.
Congratulations! “The unconventional path is where all the magic is.” Mid 30s, female with a lot of flexibility right now and drawing inspiration from your video!! The message of relentless action resonates! It’s the energy I need bc I’m SOOO ready mentally after having spent two years intentionally leaving the corporate world to rethink my pivot, dealing with so much family criticism until I said NO MORE LISTENING TO YOU ALL trying to deter me from my more authentic path, and getting on the mission to turn my fullest efforts into entrepreneurship. I’m mentally ready to just GO to my next phase and remove all the conventional methods I used to let hold me back.
Your logic is ill conceived. Do you think that art is supposed to be easy? Do you know that when you use this software your brain is actually atrophying? Your creative potential is actually diminished. Let's see some of your real art LOL. Then we'll see why you're really using AI hahahah.
i guess it’s easy to take a risk when you financially secure or have family/friends who are ready to help you in urgent situation… this way of living is not for everybody. but overall , good luck
That is a fair point! However, I do believe this type of thinking can transcends finances etc. It doesn't have to be moving across the world... it could just be asking yourself what's the first small step you can take toward progress..
I mean if you start learning about finance, it's recommended to have about 3-6 months of an emergency fund anyways. That can go a long way for anything you want to try. All it takes is you making a plan and executing on it, which is the hard part.
A couple of artists I follow on deviantART who make art themselves also AI generate art or use AI in some form to make something. So there are other artists like you who don't bitch and complain about it
People ask me all the time. "Dude post your art" me: "Why so some idiot using an AI with zero skills can copy me. No thanks. You can pay triple for my work now"
Great vid man. I get hammered whenever I do something with ai, but I'm like, wow, I could never have even made this thing without the ai. Sure, it's still in progress, but one day the world will be full of people creating block buster movies just by themselves in their homes, and the good ones will rise to the top. Exciting. Inclusive. Advancement. It's kinda like saying, hey, keyboards suck, because they get the job done faster. Maybe there is an argument for some people harnessing the powers of utilizing ai in a seemless manner, while others who don't hold the capacity to orchestrate it well create bad products. Many viewers will have been hurt by bad ai art/media in the past, and so the mere sight of another piece of ai media (impressive or otherwise), will make them cringe and write bad stuff, which is understandable. The only way people's perceptions on the use of ai in media or art will change is if people start creating good media with it, and that will only happen when people spend hours getting good at it, or when ai software develops to a more satisfactory level.
Loved this and subbed! 🔥 I think everyone should check out JT Barnett's vlogs as an example of what a real day in the life of an entrepreneur is like. They're literally just videos of him sitting on calls with his clients most of the day which makes him come off more authentic than just showing of some glamorous lifestyle. Daniel Dalen is another good one too.
Love both those channels. Planning on doing some similar type videos soon and their raw formats are really inspiring to me. That’s the next wave/ future of entrepreneurial content here for sure. People want to see real. Thanks for watching and for the sub! 🤟🤟
@@AndreFoster Happy to have ya here! Early 😉... you might want to check out my newsletter on creative entrepreneurship: creativeentrepreneur.beehiiv.com/
Hey Rickey , really nice video ! I was wondering if I could help you with more Quality Editing in your videos and also make a highly engaging Thumbnail and also help you with the overall youtube strategy and growth ! Pls let me know what do you think ?
So, how much does your sculpture weigh? I was waiting for the money shot, to see it rotate on a turntable or something, so I could look at it from every angle - Isn't that what a sculpture is? It's a very nice graphic image. Well done, but in what sense can you call it a sculpture?
I’d say it’s really important but mostly once you have a skill or something to offer. Networking just for networking may not get you anywhere, would be better to spend that time getting great at something and then networking as a step 2, IMO. That isn’t to say don’t network at all, it’s just to say in the beginning stages there can be more important things than networking.
@@caseyrickeyart im planning on making a skool to help introverts with new products and service ideas to become better at selling them, since I feel like most of them lack that skill (as a fellow introvert) Now ima switch directions of my RU-vid channel to focus more on that niche
Awesome video, Thanks! Building a drone buisiness right now as an 16 year old kid. Doing it because I love shooting videos with my drone and am passioned about it. Already have my first client next month an just finished my website. Good luck in the future with your business <3
