AI Generated art is SCARY

I did one random one, "Ron Weasley in Fisher Price car," wanting something like him in the red one with the yellow top that people get for their kids to run around the yard in. The AI made it look like there was a little Ron Weasley Little People figure, in a bunch of the Little People cars. If you squint at it, it really does look like it exists and someone just took pictures of it, it was insane.

[@hagelslag9312]

I'm in Midjourney and you'll probably be fine. I'm an illustrator too but the prompts are still limited in an odd way. Especially composition is a problem, most of it is perfectly centered and rarely in an actual interesting composition. Also once it gets difficult you don't know what you're going to get. It won't work well if you need to be specific and have requirements. For example a cyberpunk neon cat with red eyes and gold earrings probably won't get red eyes and gold earrings.

[@SmugOcelot]

I think that you, as an artist, will still be quite valuable in the world, because an AI lacks emotion and any form of emotional connection with art. Sure, they look good, but at the same time, it’s generic. Sometimes a little boring. There is no human attached to the artwork, it’s a program. Keep creating art! Don’t let some AI take what you enjoy away from you. I think the AI will be used as a tool, but not a replacement of valuable artists such as yourself

I also have dawned upon this cause there's been talk about ai generating music and I am like what if it generates the perfect metal album each time leaving us musicians nothing to do cause it has already created the best but I think ai can't generate emotions and tone so maybe if ai takes over it'll be like amazing to find a real musician like wow this person actually makes music without help at all instant recognition

I honestly agree with you. While self-taught, I have spent years learning how to improve myself as an artist and still have people tell me my commissions or merch is "too expensive." Watching them go to another fellow artist who was willing to give them what they wanted for $10 vs. my $50 has been hard enough. Knowing they can eventually go to an AI generator and get it for free is even more upsetting - and genuinely depressing - for a creative person.

I wouldn't worry too much. These AI only take from what already exists. If you were to give midjourney an incredibly detailed and niche prompt, it will give you a nice looking image that's missing a lot of the details you described. It mainly excels in imitating general concepts in a pleasing art style. It works well with single word prompts especially, but that's not too impressive considering they're vague prompts to begin with and thus can't really have "wrong" interpretations. Humans are still absolutely necessary. At least for now lol..

[@elmadicine]

I think that there are certain levels of illustrations that people want made that CAN be fulfilled by an AI, where _the use_ for the end product is likely worth $10 or less. people don't want to pay $50 to have an image of themselves holding their pet in a cute art style for their profile pic

I've already gotten the "AI will replace artists" comment once or twice around the time of the previous AI photo generation hype, and im worried people are genuinely going to think you can replace artists with AI.

[@therussianprincess7036]

What I feel is sad about the “good” ones is that if these engines become widespread, it will become increasingly harder to value and analyze art. If you look at a digital painting made by a human, then despite the medium you can speculate on what was a the artist thinking about, what choices they made or what symbolism they wanted to portray. If you look at an AI generated painting all you can speculate on is “what was the prompt?” even if the piece looks beautiful and meaningful.

[@toyguy119]

While the artistic intent and the artists vision for a piece is always an interesting discussion to have, in my opinion the more important part of art and its value is how other individuals respond, what they can gleam from it, and that is still something we’d have with ai generated artwork. However it’s a moot point, as artwork made by humans isn’t ever going anywhere, even if ai generated art becomes more common alongside it.

[@rexana_rexana]

@@toyguy119 The problem also becomes companies using AI art to cut corners and actual artists lose their jobs. Concept Designers, Illustrators, Storyboarders, Character Designers, etc, all of their jobs could be tossed because companies would rather someone sit on a computer and input prompts. That effects real people. Yeah, Ai art is cool and all, and if it ends up a seperate medium then it's completely fine and the worry will have been over nothing, but knowing the trend of companies, they'll cut any meat they can to save a pretty penny, even if they end up with an artificial replacement and the actual humans they dumped are left with nothing left to do to feed themselves. That's my worry, and the worry of many other artists in this comment section.

Honestly at this point I think we as a species need to think about this a lot more, and that makes me want this to happen faster. Almost every job will be automated eventually. I forget the exact estimated percentages being thrown around, but pretty soon a good amount of entry-level jobs will be taken up by what will then be considered simple machines. It’s my hope that the concept of “working for our keep” will be challenged, because eventually, there won’t be job opportunities for everyone to reasonably do that.

Many professional artists are worried that it'll steal their job.

AI art will never truly replace human art. Sure, it may be easier to access for people who haven't spent years drawing and practising, but people don't draw because there's a demand for art. People draw because they love it. And since art will never fade out as a hobby, as a passion, people will never be replaced by a computer, because the computer makes what it's told, not what it wants.

As a working artist, the concept of AI generated art is somewhat terrifying. It's hard enough to operate as an independent artist already, but tech that allows for the image compilation of all artists' work on the internet to create a product that didn't take the time, work, or creative initiative as the original images it draws from is blindsiding to artists, removes the human element of art, and makes it even harder for artists to set themselves apart creatively and make a name for themselves

The tech is mind-blowing, but personally, I GREATLY dislike how it's being applied to art, mainly because I have a very real worry that, once it starts generating properly competent and cohesive imagery, beyond even what Midjourney is capable of, there will be a paradigm shift towards devaluing pretty much all levels of manual artistic skill, especially for those at the bottom. I cannot deny the improvement in productivity and utility it provides to many a profession, but I believe that the realm of creativity should be left to people. Maybe it's me being a hopeless idealist or someone who feels like an inadequate artist, and it's what society wants to move towards, but I maintain that, should we ever reach a point where the underlying societal systems, maintenance and dull, thankless jobs can be offloaded onto perpetually self-sustaining AI management systems, creativity will be the expression of the human experience we push towards.
