How To Generate INSANE AI Art For Beginners (Midjourney V4 )

[@aiadvantage]

IMPORTANT NOTE: Since May 2023 Midjourney is NOT FREE ANYMORE! Rest of the video still holds it's just that they stopped the free trial.

[@JourneyXProductions]

How can you even consider Generation art? It's not even your creation. Y'all just want the end product because It Looks pretty. There's not even no atmospheric perspective and depth in that, my dude.

[@AlexanderSama]

@@JourneyXProductions That's exactly what the pioneer painters of classic artistic trends (van Gogh, Picasso, da Vinci, etc.) would say about paintings made with current tools like tablets and software for editing, and yet that's widely accepted today and many of us appreciate great artists who use these methods, so you saying AI generated illustrations are not art is a blatant fallacy. New tools are here to stay dude, whether you accept it or not.

[@JourneyXProductions]

@@AlexanderSama Say for example I'm in full support of AI. Every single Artist Has went back to studying the masters. In fact this AI tool Just makes the entire art for you. If this dude was smart, this dude would continue working on the dragon composition. In fact all this guy is doing is upselling a product to you.

Good advice. Been there done that

[@INCDZONE]

So what is relex mode?

[@senink]

Note to everyone, if possible, don’t rely on ai art for everything you do There are so many freelance artists that could use commissions Myself included Ai art I don’t think is a BAD thing but it’s scary that freelance artists could go out of business because of this So let’s find a good balance of supporting artists and using ai

[@Anon-y1v]

Honestly I don’t see a benefit for AI unless ur a businessman

[@senink]

@@Anon-y1v there both free lance arts it’s and business artists. Some are both. Example, I’m tryna find a balance so I can make designs for my sticker/pin etc store without spending 3-6 hours to make one design. And then when I do character creation or commissions etc I draw them Either way, drawing things yourself takes a lot of time that not everyone has, so I believe there is a balance but I’m not sure what it should be. Maybe we’ll figure it out someday, I’m sure there’s other benefits for the creatively challenged who struggle with color schemes and design? Like maybe they could use ai for an inspiration wall for a design, then draw it?

[@sinnwalker]

Most creatives and workers in general will be out of a job within the decade. Best accept it, but it doesn't mean "oh bad". Life goes on and we evolve, creatives will just move to a more niche market, like how "hand made" is.

[@c2vranoutofnames]

its funny, everyone seems to have such a strong objection to me describing ai art as just typing in a short prompt- that that isnt how it works- that theres way more to it than that. Every time i see someone using it, thats what it is. So what am i missing here? is there some hidden trick im not seeing that takes hours?

I love how they say “FREE FREE FREE” and then walk you hand and hand through the download process, through the install, the setup process, the “how to” instructions, and finally to a result where you are now addicted. Only then do they tell you that it’s limited and in order to continue to use it you have to pay a monthly fee.

[@EssentialTruth]

Yup its not so easy to find completely free tool.

[@chumcool]

@@EssentialTruth That's not at all my point. It's the fact that it's presented as "FREE" and continued to be advertised as such all the way to and through the process of installing a software onto one's machine where, only then, after the program is on your hard drive, is there any mentioning of it being absolutely NOT FREE. I have no problem with paying for the things that I want, gladly doing so especially with knowing that because I do, I will be contributing to the integrity of said product. I do however get annoyed by liars.

So, I have a question. I am writing a children's book. I have AI generated two cats who are the main characters in the book. I now want to ask the AI to create additional image scenarios using the main images I created. For example, I would like Floof, the boy cat, to be in meadow field with other cats. How do I tell the AI to keep the image of Foof when adding other cats. I also want Floof and Luna, his girl cat friend, to be shown playing in kitty heaven with other kitties. Can I tell the AI to use my two main images of Floof and Luna and add them to a group of other cats? Thanks for any guidance you can provide.

Tokenized AI has recently published a video about consistent character creation with Midjourney, that might be helpful

[@GarryWalker]

This is really difficult - I made a childrens book on my youtube channel and I struggled to get a turtle and a dog in the same picture - the best way is to do some editing in phtoshop of two separate images and cut and paste the bits you want into a final image. it wont look great but you can run it through the software again and get something looking more finalised.

How about making a video about the millions of stolen images platforms like midjourney are accessing to allow people to "create art". This isn't art. It's a system that has scraped the Internet for images and uses them to frankenstein an image together without any thought, compensation or even credit to the artists that have been ripped off.

[@Beyondarmonia]

Not stolen. Learning from copyrighted images has always been fair use. Or are you insinuating that human artists only ever see and get influenced by public domain images?

[@WolverineBatman]

Very ignorant. The AI trains itself the way a human does when looking at reference images.

@Juris Angeles Wrong, it's basically exploiting potholes in copyright laws. Have some human decency, everytime someone generates an AI image, they're basically pushing a real life artist off the edge.
