dear artists, stop complaining about AI (sincerely...a fellow artist) 

I posted 1 AI image on Reddit for fun in a sub where it isn’t banned (which is rare) and I still got ripped a new a-hole. I didn’t even make it. It wasn’t stealing anyone’s job or art (mostly used real photos as input). People need to chill out

On thing no one is talking about is over saturation. There will most likely be a huge amount of ai art added to am already saturated art market. I would imagine this will devalue art even further

I feel the main complaints about AI are the way many services take artwork without compensation and charge to have them mixed into new images. If they added royalties and consent it would be fine.

First sane opinion ive heard about this topic

I really believe artists should be used to input new ideas into data banks and PAID for each image. I would be up for that 100%

I think it would be interesting to feed these programs my own work and see what variations it spits out, I know the anger about this technology is stemming from the fact it's being trained unethically. To some degree I think if we didn't pave the way for it, by amusing such an impressive body of work online. The technology would be both blind and deaf. As of late I found myself asking a great deal of questions, such as what is art ? Is what this machine does also art? What does art mean to me? What is my relationship with art? And much more, but the question of quality is not among them, for that was the easiest to answer AI wins almost every time. I don't mean to dishearten any who take the time to read this, please forgive. In conclusion we are at a crossroads both as individuals and a community. Regardless of the answers you arrive at or your preferred medium of expression, I sincerely hope you continue to create. For a world without your unique contribution is all the lessa.

K. Seeing many braindead people confusing art for talent instead of being a skill, you can learn a skill, art is a learned skill not a talent. This AI tech is impressive and powerful, it’s here to stay I’ll admit, we’ve crossed the point of no return, but it’s never going to be a skill. AI is a tool, right now it’s harmful because the unskilled people believe themselves right at every point and better than an artist who’s studied and worked their skill over decades of their lives, and capitalism ain’t helping. And people who don’t know what they’re talking (“AI artists”) about aren’t helping. Have respect for the skill and those who take it seriously. “AI Art” will never be recognised as art because it’s not human expression being told, it’s a tool that doesn’t understand art.

As an artist I don’t have a problem with AI art it’s the people behind it and the dishonesty. They can do it in a way that is ethical and beneficial they did it with a music platform that they made. Probably because music has better legal protections. But the visual arts don’t have the same protections. This AI can do wonderful things. But it should be done in a way that compensates artists not take advantage of them and there work, for big companies.

I really hate when people say ai art is stealing from existing art. I guess they think it just has a big database of images it photoshops together? Ai art models cannot recall any specific images. They only keep their impressions of the art they have seen. You observe the art of others and then you don't memorize it, but you keep your impressions of the form and details and use that for your own art

The initial shock is understandable, but the genie is out of the bottle. We’re better off figuring out how to adapt. For example, why not use it as a way to start the base of your piece, or a way to quickly thumbnail to spark your imagination. Instead of referencing stolen art, maybe reference pictures you’ve taken while exploring your surroundings ( that cool city square you know, or the cool tree in the forest/park you frequent etc )

Chess players didn't stop playing chess when the IA's became unbeatables, they incorporated them in their training. Artists will do the same.

I’d question “most artists” being anti-AI. It’s clearly not insignificant, but social media has a tendency to amplify negative viewpoints. Technically it could be a majority, but I think the evidence for that is not conclusive.

I really love the vibe of your video. Really well done! Thx! Regarding the topic: It seems photographers aren't complaining that much or even not at all. Or am I just not hearing about it?

Dude, the problem is not the own concept of AI, is the fact that tjis machine use art without the permision of the original creators and plagiarize the artstyle of real life creators, fomenting the fraud with no protection for human artist ehile others use your to create money and sometimes, even your own name if you are a bit famous... Artist dont say no to tecnology, we just want protection against this if someone just dont wanna see how his work is used without permission

See, I as an artist and slightly connected to the programming understand that the AI is here to stay and can be the fruit of great achievements and evolution of humanity, but it depends on us and only us because like any technology, can be used for the "good" and for the "evil" of others. And for more aesthetic and accessible that new technologies have presented themselves, they have gross flaws concerning their ethics and moral functioning, from social ethics to environmental ethics can still be considered destructive or at least hasty. Remember that only 31% of the world has access to basic education, remember that around 17 million people survive today only with artistic earnings and many of them, mainly in underdeveloped countries, depend on these earnings to eat and have access to basic health, remember that psychologically the human being is not prepared to see this technology as an auxiliary factor but as a factor of substitution of what already exists. Artists protesting, often they are not protesting simply because they don't like the technology or because of any legislative convention/agenda, but because they fear that tomorrow they won't be able to put any more food on the table. Talking now about the book The War of Art, don't you think that art being a way of liberating the soul in its process, due to the requirements of patience and other virtues, the conduct of this process being passed on to an AI would not be a tool of resistance? If imagination is something that is born from the ability to see something more and resistance holds you where you are, when you have not enjoyed your creative capacity would it actually be the resistance of wanting to imagine? Just things to think about...

The Reasons Artists Detest AI Artists. I am an artist as well as an AI artist. And I used it to help me generate ideas because it had tools. Additionally, make others smile. I understand. Method Why no two artists are alike. Like us, some artists use AI into their daily workflow. If you have ever used assistance. You stay away from discussing it. You succeed. Do artists use the creations of other artists and receive payment for it? Yes. However, Al isn't stealing the ideas of other AI artists. This is a fantastic example of creative art in action. The identical songs that I write are being taken from musicians that write their own songs. Alright. Give it a shot.. Give it a chance before you Judge it. Like I did

im afraid it's deeper than that. i wish AI is just a tool that artists can use to improve their work. however people are complaining about how it could be used by the wrong people and how it should be regulated. because currently theres 0 regulation regarding AI art and that can lead to numerous problems. theres also the debacle about whatever AI art shits out it is not original by any means NOT because AI sample imgaes the way people has believed all this time, but because AI does not have its own life experiences, preferences, and creativity when "re creating" these training images themselves. and that is why some people are still concerned about how AI is actually stealing people's art altough the topic has because so deeply philosophical. but these will definitely erase lower rank artists who only wants to make a decent living through their hobby of art. possibly even discourage a lot of people from learning art.

Wow! I just found your channel 10 minutes ago and I already love it. You have a great voice, and the way you present information is honest and straightforward. I can't wait until your channel blows up, I am here for the journey.

Main question is, what are you going to do with all those people who can't/won't adapt for some reason?

I agree with some of this but I think a lot of the anger comes from the lack of respect AI "artists" have for their predecessors. It feels backhanded to take others work and make money this quickly without even acknowledging the original creators. Artists have this innate respect for each other. WE DO TAKE FROM OTHER ARTISTS. Just like AI. But we know and respect the people we are imitating. And the original ideas of the previous artists live on in this way. When someone tells an AI to make something, they have NO CLUE who it is referencing nor would they care. That's why it more like "stealing" than anything else.

I think, generally, the art aesthetic will enable artists to create more, as is stated in the video, but it seems, upon inspection, that those that are doing the most complaining are the Twitter cringe artists. In many respects, its the feigned outrage, victimization culture/fandoms, that are going to habitually feign outrage because its within that "culture" to do so. It doesn't matter that its AI art or some other "cause" that is appropriated to feed that urge.

I have REALLY mixed feelings about both sides of art community's opinion

While I appreciate the video, AI is not a problem just in the art world, it is transforming into multiple categories of services and none of them are related to helping anyone. Why aren't these AI "engineers" creating one which can make things better on the medicine field or something that actually need these mega fast "machine learning" processes? I always get this feeling, it's just a feeling of course, that it's more convenient to do this in fields that are profitable, have many people which can help train these systems for free, and also don't have big corporations and a lot of law involved, you know, the art world seems to be a good start, lots of people would take the "pill of success" to be able to create stuff fast and put more money and effort into their own lack of responsibility and laziness, than to support and fund something like AI for anything, specially if that supposed AI is said to make their work easier. but don't quote me on that.

Please make more videos

Well, I am more worried about some numbskull doing false accusations that of using AI art tools when I didn't (Some guys are advising me to have a speedpaint, some sort of bts pics about the art process and to block people) and an actual art thief using the AI tools to really steal.

the only good thing about this is that human creativity never really ends remember that the ai is just interpreting our ideas with it data base so we might have something in mind and not get exactly what we wanted so maybe it is still worthy to become an artist those days another thing that ai are quite unable to do apart from hands is nsfw 🤣🤣🤣 but seriously artist are not totally doomed as some persons thinks

DUDE! I know that book, I read it once and have ever since been looking for it but I forgot the title! NOW I NEED TO ORDER ME A COPY! THAT BOOK IS A MUST HAVE FOR ALL CREATIVES!! I love this video and came from the same inspiration that motivated me, that little book you showed off at the beginning. It left something in me that told me when the AI art machines came around, "Maybe an artist is now replacable, but what about the artist who knows how to use AI? Isnt that double the gain that a machine or a man alone? Lets learn the AI and become its master."

2:45 It is right - literally. The EU allows for opt-outs. There is no requirements for opt-ins. The law is from 2019, so not something ancient and it explicitly mentions the commercial use of publicly available data. EU Directive 790/2019 (since it is a directive and not a "law", memberstates have to make it into law themselves - in Germany that would be §44b and §44c UrhG and in other countries other laws saying the same). And this has been held up when challenged. The EU considers it ethical to force its memberstate to ratify it into law. So all the arguments about it being not ethical or stealing are ignorant about the current law. A law that was made 2019, no ancient law with loopholes.

I use these tools to create art work, and graphic designs. They are softwares that help out a lot.

OK I,I'll sum up this video as don't question comply. A very short sighted view.

AI training is no different to any previous kind of statistical analysis. It also happens to be no different to how our brains perform such analysis. And yet these people who oppose generative AI, did not have a problem with other humans learning from the data they put out, nor did they complain about prior revenue generating statistical analysis tasks, when we used the same data to produce marketing information and such. It only became a "copyright" issue the moment the data started being used to produce new data which they feel is in competition with their own. They feel like this new technique has a competitive advantage, because they didn't mind humans that are just as slow as they are, learning from the art they see. Funnily enough I have not seen actual good artists that feel threatened by AI. Most of the people losing their shit on twitter and reddit, if you take a look at their portfolios, they do anime and furry NSFW content, I swear to god. I like to browse artstation and download digital art that I vibe with, and even there I've noticed an inverse correlation between the quality of the art someone posts and the likelihood they've posted that No-AI image. A truly good artist feels secure in the value he brings to the world. It's these people producing "art" of the same quality as something a 9 year old could produce, that feel deeply threatened and violated by AI adjusting a couple synaptic weights by some ~0.00001 because of their 100kb image out of a 90tb dataset to ultimately produce a 9gb parameter checkpoint. Are we going to see world famous art pieces suddenly drop in values? Will the Mona Lisa become worthless because people can generate similar images 5 times per minute? No. That's absurd. Human art was never about what image or sound you can produce. It was about the meaning, the experience, getting to step into someone else's shoes, being able to feel what another human once felt even a thousand years apart. But then, that doesn't apply when you make my little pony tributes. Neurons seeing and learning concepts is suddenly problematic when those neurons can output directly to a screen. We wouldn't need these image generating AIs if we could just imagine things and render them to a screen. Instead we need to imagine concepts and type the prompt, and hope the AI is able to imagine the thing we imagined on our behalf because its neurons can output digital information. Otherwise, the process is no different. So what they truly have a problem with is not having to pickup a pencil and draw the art. Let's hope the neuralink users never start being able to output their mental images to a display or we'll have a genocide of the paralyzed. These people are unhinged. Live and let live.

Nope, sorry I will fight skynet to death

"I don't know what I'm talking about or how any of it works or where it will go from here, but I'm embracing it and it makes me cooler than you" is the entire video Comparing slightly more complex tiktok anime filter to Refik Anadol is a fucking disgrace. And even then, Refik's work is only good because of it's novelty. Stop eating up everything "progress" and the market shits out. Not everything is good or groundbreaking just because it seems cool on first value AI can't make art by definition of art.

“There really is no such thing as Art. There are only artists.”- E.H Gombrich Art is a form of freedom of expression and the ability to draw anything. However, artificial intelligence is limited because it determines the output based on the data it has been trained on. In the end, I do not think that artificial intelligence is inherently bad, but it can be problematic when it is used inappropriately. Simply generating a few words does not make an artist, because true creativity comes from within the artist. Also, artificial intelligence does not need you, it can generate a better prompt than you so The real creators are the artists themselves Currently, I will avoid using it, not because I am against technology, because I am human and love drawing and expressing myself freely Artificial intelligence will now become a camera for the unreal world, And artists again will go to another dimension that artificial intelligence cannot reach It's like when the camera created the artists, they stopped painting the real world and turned to the realm of fantasy and science fiction.

Just learned that the science fiction magazine "Clarkesworld" has been inundated with AI written submissions. They are all terrible, but the sheer volume of them has caused the magazine to stop taking new submissions altogether. There are actually people out there who think that you can simply string words together and make money selling them to magazines.

Oh, hello there 👋. A motion designer and an AI enthusiast? Good that there’s people who like to embrace the change of landscapes

I like the ai art concept, its given me ideas I don't think I could otherwise come up with, being that we as humans see the world for what it is, where an ai tries to see that world the same way, but comes up with its own interpretation based on the information its given. Since I write stories set in strange universes, its nice to see what the ai comes up with. I described a person standing in a video game arcade and the game cabinets it came up with in the background really do look like something in a different universe. I also use the ai as a tool to plan out a scene or an angle I can't get just right normally. Technology changes with art, we have gone form the camera obscura and camera lucida to Photoshop and AI, different tech to get the same results.

💛🧡partage incroyable 🖤💛

I want to thank you for making this video, I originally had a more negative, but not exactly hateful viewpoint on ai art, but now I feel the need to be more open-minded. Your points make sense to me, the fact that you’re an artist that is able to make artwork with ai (and your background relating to ai as well) makes me think of you as credible. The way that some people address ai makes it hard for me to process and understand, but this video, being clear and concise, helps me organize my thoughts and viewpoints. Again, thanks for this! :)

These are great points, and they strike at the heart of the issue. That being, that professional Illustrators don't care about exploration and experimentation art... mainly because their jobs usually do not allow it. A game studio requires many artists to have a consistent style, and not rock the boat. These artists then create paid courses, showing how to find your way into this very limited job field... though the real secrets are never revealed... because... well you know this is about money. Great video, really in 10 minutes you summed it all up.

I've watched the Art world evolve over time, I watched the explosion of digital cameras from film. In both creative fields, people have fallen into the trap of searching for the next hit of dopamine rather than focusing on the root and intention of what art is: communication. AI is only a tool to help other communicate artistically, for others who have traditional skills of an artist it can be a tool to advance and evolve your own creations.

So quick explanation here, I am an computer science engineer, in university I have been studying deep learning and testing some hypothesis, i killed my old laptop by doing so, ai technology is very complicated when it comes to hypothesis with almost about anything you do with it. I did some testing with vqgan and diffusion models when they did come out to answer a personal simple question. Can ai be considered creative. The short answer is no, it is not creative, but please note that it is my testing i might be wrong with approach or execution. So i think you already familiar with diffusion models and how they trained so i won't explain that and straight explain what i did. I trained my model from scratch it didn't know anything, i fed him pictures of very stickmen alike black dogs in a white background with resolution 64x64 and amount of thousands images, i know resolution seems low but it is actually enough to test, and also fed him images of dog's head. And when i requested to cut images of head from dog images it did fairly good job not perfect but it was going in a right direction. And then i fed him images of blue swords and also images of dogs holding a blue swords with a mouth and images of red pistols without dogs. Now what we have model that can recognize dog, dog's head, blue sword, dog holding a blue sword, red pistol. Now moment of truth if i will request him do generate image of dog holding a red pistol with a mouth will it make it or not. And as you might know answer it just give up and were generating mess trying to blend together dog and pistol. So why am i writing all of this, i often hear arguments against and for ai art generation. Some people say that ai is training on data same as people do so it is not stealing, this argument is hard to disprove because nature of ai makes hard to prove or disprove almost anything but we can say for sure that humans are creative and as i tested ai is not, so we already process information in different ways, ai's pattern recognition works in different way than humans so calling out ai for stealing might be true but then again it is not coping it directly, it is using it is knowledge of pattern that just differs from humans. Okey i will finish my observations here and further will just speak my mind about this situation. Ai is perfect representation of our society. Have any of you noticed that every time something original happens like very successful game, movie or some song. Industries and companies will do everything it takes to take piece of this successful cake and they will deny any other ideas whether they are original or not. Most big companies in entertainment industry always make same thing over and over again and the only original works were made are always made by small group of people and when they reach their success Industry giants will start to manufacture idea of this small group in a greater scales to greater profit because it proven to work to profit. This ai situation is exactly the same, if you lost your ability to distinguish ai made art from human made it is not because ai is making original content it is because people are stagnating and making same stuff over and over. Ever wondered why ai so good at generating anime waifus, it is because they are very similar in appearance to each other because we stopped pushing it forward. By making stable diffusion open source we effectively made every human being a corporation, now every one can mass manufacture popular art or art style but nobody will make original art, and even if somebody will make original works it can easily be taken and also mass produced without consent or mention. Ai is here to stay not because it is better in art than humans but because it is better in worst thing about our society today at creating same idea with low effort.

I've been using it to create thumbnails for my next peace while finishing the one I'm working on right now. Theres no stopping this so just incorporate it into your workflow.

Fantastic video! Subscribed!

The only problem I see in that is you can't think like an artist, ultimately AI art it's not created as a tool for artists. The ones who designed it did not intend it to be a tool for artist they have their own tunnel vision in creating an actual artificial intelligence, the point of concern comes into the one factor that always takes control of something the corporate Factor as much as people like to deny the fact we live in a fully corporate world we grind on people are blind to that fact that we are just enslaving ourselves to the shareholders, and I believe AI art is going to be there one big move to finally get the one thing that is always flustered corporations and they will take advantage to every aspect remove the artists and the storytellers eventually because they no longer see innovation they found more profits in stagnation. And the only reason that we seen such a sharp increase in the advancement of AI those same Corporations saw the possibilities of increasing profit while cutting out the things that always get in the way.

what has really separated is the bad artists who think can get clout with AI from the good ones. I guess you are in the first category

AI generated art is a tool, not a replacement. Imo i believe artist should try to adapt to this trend instead of trying to stop what is unstoppable. " We know how to manipulate color, we understand the structure,skeleton,etc" : why can't you use this a tool to save time if you do understand this nuances that regular AI users don't ? Real artists have a ridiculous amount of advantage in this new field and instead of setting the bar for good AI art they are choosing to go against it.

Great video. Like you I started my channel to demonstrate the way AI image generation can be used in collaboration with humans. We are entering a new era that is both exciting and scary but I believe that while the tools of artists may change the valuable role they have will not.

this is about the gigantic theft of already existing artist's work. work that not many artists consented to just giving away. not just complaining about technology.

I'm sure I'll get hate for this, but I feel that the artists doing the complaining are really insecure. I'm over on the music side of things, and I'm seeing the same thing for musicians. If you're really good at what you do - AI is not going to be a threat whatsoever. Instead embrace it and see where it can really take you... these tools in the hands of artists themselves are going to blow minds. And when has copyright protected you anyhow? I don't remember winning any copyright lawsuits.

Some people enjoy complaining. Some people are better at complaining then they are at being creative. Some people are really effected and that’s sad. Some people don’t care either way and just like talking. You kinda gotta figure out who’s who before you invest too much time into a pointless or a unproductive discussion on this topic.

Really like the format and flow of your videos! and I totally agree. I find it weird how artists seem to become unimaginative when it comes to AI.

Now what in the hell is this doing on my for you page ai art is stolen from other artists of the internet without giving them any credit which is just plain unfair

Let put it this way : the more years and sacrifices you had put into your craft, the more you will react to this Ai stuff negatively and its perfectly legit, fair and logic to react that way ! Period. Its all about blood and tears. I guess most people embrassing it early are those who possess 0 skills, talent or never had the will and effort to become good out of laziness , commitment, or simply a lack of natural talent.

THOUGHT EXPERIMENT: If my (non-artist) mom’s pet hamster fell onto her computer’s keyboard and accidentally prompted MidJourney, and this led Midjourney to create an artistic image would that A) Make the hamster an artist? B) Or my mom the artist? C) Or neither? Midjourney can in-fact generate images based on one word or “non-word” prompts. or “by accident.” I don’t think it’s fair for someone to use raw Midjourney output, post it on a gallery somewhere (as they often do) and consider it their own art. It’s simply not their own art. Not unless they creative iterative art using a model trained on either 1. open sourced content 2. commons content 3. their own artwork. 4. licensed art AND If they adequately transform the original work within the bounds of fair use, per use case. Artists should be compensated for the use of their art in the training of these generative art models. Including the ones whose art was used to train Midjourney. or Midjourney etc could be rebooted without pilfered artwork. but then it would look quite different. maybe some transparency would be nice. without the work of recent and of living artists, character designers, UX designers, product designers, fashion illustrators, amazing comic artists, etc. and all of the real artists on art station, MidJourney would NOT have that “mid-journey look”…and would look more like DALL.E or a retro image generator. compensate or work with the artists whose IP is being used in midjourney! OR RE-do Midjourney without artist’s IP. AI further commodifies the spirit (❤️vs.💰🤑) of art.

The problem is never technology per se, it's who is pushing that tech and why...

at first i wanted to like ai images, i wanted to accept it as a tool but those filthy sweaty ai bros that probably also support nft's are stealing people's art (best example being the samdoesart situation) and claiming that they're better than human artist, its like comparing photography to painting, its ridiculous, ai can make art but it shouldn't be classified in the same category with human artists, it should be seperate

theft is theft, no matter what you call it

I find the tone of this video pretty dismissive and condescending ngl. Maybe AI ethics won't be an issue in the future, but they are currently, and people pushing back against the current trajectory of AI isn't just human fear of the unknown, it's a perfectly logical assessment of an unethical, greedy form of creating images using other people's work. The implication that anti AI folks are just sitting on their hands and complaining as if they've stopped making art altogether to complain while you adapt regardless of the current state of AI ethics rubs me the wrong way.

Anyone can claim to be anyone, Now show your porto so we can see are you an artist or not

Artists when they steal all possible characteristics of popular media for their shitty OC: "Sir, if you have a complaint I suggest you submit it through our email system. I would be happy to refer you to our website" Artist when a literal computer uses someones art for reference: "You are done. Fired."

"Just shot up and go with the flow"

Well said. You speak wisely. If only other artists would listen.

Artists will always make art but wont be able to make a living with art

Clearly you don't understand why artist are complaining

Remember back in the day.We were taught in art schools to actually copy All the styles from all the amazing artists... This is what I feel the ai is kind of doing too...

The gaslighting argument "ai art is here to stay and you have to adapt or die" is like: "nuclear weapons are here to stay and you have to adapt to the idea of living in a bunker in a near future or die." I'm still thinking that the better choice is to ban nuclear weapons.

What i think would be good is to evolve the tec away from internet scraping and find newer more ethical methods such as commissioning artists to provide visual elements to feed the ai system and put blockers in to prevent art forgery. That could get excited about .

Interesting thanks! I made a video on "why AI art won't really replace the human artists". Please let me know what you think 🤔 I'm a fellow data scientist..

finding this vid a year later, yes i will complain, until my hands are turn to dust

But it’s a form of art and in some cases identity theft no? ie when ai mimics work of an artist and passes themselves off as such with no compensation to the artist

As an Artist AND Comp. Sci. major myself: I'm tired of artists shouting down all other voices/prespectives in an effort to own the moral-ground & victimhood of the debate. Not a single fellow artist I've directly asked has acutally understood how Stable Diffusion technology works, nor do they care to educate themselves, or try it. Funny enough, not a single artist I've spoken to has lost their job or a client because of AI art. When Photoshop was publically avalible back in Feb. 1990, traditional artists back then complained that "the computer just does all the work: it's lazy." Today, the same people who complain about AI tech are the same "lazy artsits" who gew up using Photoshop and still use it daily to make a living. Congradualtions you digital artists, you grew up to be the same bitter old-guy from the 1990s, critizing the younger generation and complaning about new techology. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

It's always the mediocre and unskilled artists that usually are pro AI. Because now they can generate art with a click of a button without investing or sacrificing their lives away. Neat deal.

I am an artist, and I started learning to use it out of curiousity and frustration of seeing "AI arts" people made and feel that I can do better. And well, the more I learnt, the more I see that prompters have no chance against artists using it, it is very powerful tools, only limited by our imaginations, the way it followed my reference drawings and came up with what I had in mind very quickly is incredible. I hope it would get better at training from fewer reference pics, so I could really use it to do precise auto coloring when making animation, AI still isn't any good at that. I feel that it won't ever steal our jobs, everyone could soon be using it, and it would be fair game, cause prompters do not stand a chance. lol

Gatekeeping and rent seeking are not creative. That's all about elitism and money. What the code itself does is testable not subjective.

Stop being scared of this BS😂 people had this same fear when the camera was introduced! Think about some of the greatest photographers, those who took the most amazing photos in history! World wars, sporting events, sea life,jungles, ect! People still want that soulful touch with oils, acrylics, charcoal pen pencils , spray paint, that only can come from us Human beings! There's already so much tech that can already produce gorgeous imagery,but we still want and need the traditional artist!

AI is nothing more than an advanced Tool. The same people shrieking into the ether about the "unfairness" of others using a tool, is just as small minded and self defeating as the dimwits who said I wasn't a "real artist" because I used a Tablet 20 years ago. "Artists" and their own immature, knee-jerk "opinions" will be thing thing that makes these same Artists seem undesirable these days, just based on this sort of behavior of shutting down AI creatives and spitting in the face of what really comes down to fellow creatives using better tools. Pathetic, but not at all surprising.

I love ai

Tbh I don’t care about Ai and what it can make. My friends and colleagues fear what it’ll do but they’re wasting time worrying while I’m keep on keeping on with my art.

You're not an illustrator or animator, or concept artist artist or whatever. You are a banana tape artist, what you are really do is social engineering, you convincing people that you are an artist and your work is art, so you can have attention and money. Whatever you have, banana, broken urinal, AI - not changes anything. Stop broadbrushing and telling working artist what to do.

I completely agree with you. Adapt, be open, and dare and you will survive! 💪👍

"Just four years ago, this is what AI art looked like." Kind of like Francis Bacon!

This AI art is quite complex, There is a lot to learn and install. Far from an instant 1 click solution.

This is a good video.

Clicked because I agree with the premise, but the reason so many artists feel trepidation with AI art isn't "humans are scared of new things." I feel that's dismissive. I'm sure artists would be excited about the prospects of AI and incorporating the tools into their work if: 1. AI companies hadn't already proved willing to sidestep artists' rights (which they haven't done with music because that industry is A LOT better at suing the crap out of people). 2. So many people in the AI space weren't publicly excited to see "artist elites" fail for political reasons, incorrectly conflating their hatred for "modern art" with working artists. 3. So many of these same people now into AI hadn't also been part of the NFT nonsense that sought to commoditize artists' work without their consent. 4. Media companies who are already exploiting artists (video games, movies, animation) weren't likely to leverage AI as reasons for increased abuse or abject replacement. And keep in mind that all of this might still be OK if people didn't need ever-increasing amounts of money to even exist as living humans-I know artists who are so Bohemian and out-there that they need the bare minimum to subsist, but most artists want to practice art AND not live in the streets. So I mean, I agree with your attitude as an artist myself, and it's how I also think about it, but be conscious that even if some of the complaints can be alarmist or hipster-y or incorrect, that there are a lot of legitimate reasons to be upset at AI.

Guess who’s gonna be drawn pregnant!!

Great video man

You are very wise, I agree, use the new technology. I also think that traditional artist who only use their mind and their hands to create, will become a rarity and their art will become very valuable.

What is surprising me is that, there are no legal suits against the companies or some kind of legal or policy limitations of using these tools.

The art community's reaction makes me ponder a thought. If the philosophy of art is the exploration of new ideas, then what is the community doing when it viscerally rejects a new idea? Ah, that's right, politics like a politician.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has been making significant advancements in various industries, including the arts. AI has gained popularity in the art world for its ability to create unique, imaginative, and thought-provoking pieces. AI art is undoubtedly the art of the future, and here are ten reasons why. 1. Limitless Creativity One of the most significant advantages of AI art is its limitless creativity. Unlike human artists, AI is not limited by personal experiences, emotions, or biases. It can generate new ideas and explore creativity without any restrictions. This allows AI art to be constantly evolving and pushing boundaries, making it the art of the future. 2. Unique and Original Artworks AI art is entirely machine-generated, making it highly unique and original. The algorithms used in creating AI art are programmed to generate one-of-a-kind pieces. This makes AI art stand out in a sea of traditional art forms, making it the future of the art industry. 3. Exploration of New Techniques and Styles AI is a constantly evolving technology, and AI art is no different. As technology advances, AI art can explore new techniques and styles that were not possible before. This opens up a whole new world of possibilities for artists and art enthusiasts, making AI art the art form of the future. 4. Speed and Efficiency Creating art can be a time-consuming process for human artists. However, AI art is incredibly efficient and can produce artworks at a much faster rate. This makes it an ideal choice for large-scale projects and exhibitions, making AI art the future of public art. 5. Preservation of Art With time, traditional artworks can deteriorate, fade or even get destroyed. However, AI art is created and stored digitally, ensuring its longevity and preservation for generations to come. This makes AI art a significant part of the future of art conservation. 6. Accessibility AI art is highly accessible, as it can be created and appreciated by anyone with a computer or smartphone. This makes it a democratic form of art, a crucial aspect of future art-making. 7. Collaborations and Community Building AI art allows collaborations between human artists and machines. This has led to the creation of a vibrant community of artists, programmers, and enthusiasts coming together to explore the possibilities of AI art. This collaboration and community building are essential for the growth and development of AI art in the future. 8. Personalization and Adaptability AI art is created by algorithms and can easily adapt to the preferences of individual viewers. This allows for a highly personalized experience for art lovers, making it the ideal art form for the future, where personalization is key. 9. Breaking Boundaries and Challenging Norms AI art has been pushing boundaries and challenging societal norms, bringing attention to crucial issues such as bias and diversity. It opens up a dialogue about the role of technology in creating art and questions the boundaries of what is considered art. This makes it a significant form of art that is shaping the future of the art world. 10. Constant Evolution and Advancement The world of AI is constantly evolving, and so is AI art. As technology advances, AI art will continue to push boundaries, break norms, and spark creativity. This makes it an art form that will always be relevant, making it the art of the future. In conclusion, AI art has the potential to revolutionize the art world. With its limitless creativity, unique and original artworks, and constant evolution and advancement, AI art is the art form of the future. It challenges traditional ideas of art, making it a necessary and exciting addition to the art world. As technology continues to advance, we can expect to see even more groundbreaking and thought-provoking AI artworks, solidifying its position as the art of the future.

I saw someone getting banned from Reddit because their Art look like Generated by AI 🗿

You can waste your time on the barricades but you won't stop the progress of technology. Adapt and embrace rather than fighting against the tides. Or just do your own thing.

Let this happen in the field of music or movie industry 🤔

Dude, the problem with today ai art is copyright: they grab stuff that they don't own and can't use, and even if they use public domain images you can't convince a judge that a computer is actually created something new and not just "moved some patterns of pixels" to make an image. Honestly, i think only when ai gonna become like human with all the cons of living, will it ever get an "author" status.

Absolute W take. Grats.

Pretty much the red scare but with AI

Ai will allow the "artist" with the most resources ( the Elite) to be the one to lead us to art being produced rather than created. Mid Century abstract novelty led us here.

“But if you use AI art you endorse violence against artists!!!! And you are literally Hitler and a colonizer!” -some pretentious “art teacher”

I just wanna point out that making AI art is a pain and takes forever to get right, you're at the mercy of a computer. In the grand scheme of things, AI is not really a threat to artists simply because art drawn by humans will always have its own advantages, the market is not going away.
