I feel I have an analogy that could work? Imagine the tech companies and you are invited to a wonderful & relaxing nature hike in the mountains. But they get in a car and drive to the end of the trail, celebrating and telling you to buy their cars. The point of art is lost on them. A.I. is paraded not as a tool with custom niche features to help artists, but as a money-making machine. And then they call you delusional for trying to continue being an artist or stand as a competitor (which, if we don't stand a chance against A.I., why bother tell us to quit, right?). A.I. itself is cool, but the attitude of these tech-bros and the model of it all is obviously built hostile and falsely accuses artists of ''gatekeeping'' art???

I see AI the same way I see NFTs, a neat idea with potential which if used well can be great for people, the difference being that AI gives immediate satisfaction with stolen art while NFTs require you to think in ways in which it can be actually useful (and since the idiots using them didn't think of anything they just died). Great ideas being poorly used kills a bright future, that's why this kind of stuff needs to be regulated, needs laws to make them work in ethical ways, just look at what Spiderverse did by feeding AI with its own work + afterwork in order to improve it. These are new tools to reach our end goals, not the end goal itself.

I've been trying to figure out how to put my feelings on AI art into words, but I think you've hit the nail on the head here. It's a neat, novel idea, but it's being used for the wrong purposes, and it really should be used to elevate artistry, rather than cut artists out. On the upside, you can't get AI art to spit out an image that's a 1:1 match for a made-up character that isn't ultra well-known, so as someone who makes my money by drawing peoples' fursonas, I've got less to worry about, myself. 😌👌

[@Vyloka]

Give it time. Voice ais gotten scary in just 2 years. Art ai wont take much longer. Its like when photography was commercially available. As soon as it was, landscape artists were out of a revenue source. Since most people would rather use the instantly accessible, cheaper, photograph for details on a location they couldnt visit instead of an artist's interpretation. Creativity and hard work was overlooked for the mundane and present of reality

@@Vyloka not entirely.

I'd like to thank you over your statements of how any art can be good. I've often been comparing myself to other artists who have entirely different art styles, and I know it's not right for me to beat myself up over art that's clearly going for a different direction than others. I'm happy to have my own art style, and how I have the flexibility with my skills to try different art styles if I want. Thank you so much, this is a great bit of inspiration for me.

[@SirPembertonS.Crevalius]

It's something that will never go away, it'll only improve as well since I've seen it start from scratch damn near on a few other channels only a few years ago and has exponentially grown in efficiency. That said, there will always be a place and desire for art passionately and/or expertly made by human hands. I don't see it being used as a tool like that of a paintbrush or fill command or something, it's its own behemoth of a software and technology. AI and technology is only going to get better and more advanced and will eventually be limited only by the imagination of the person inputting prompts, but it still doesn't make it special compared to someone who makes pieces because they enjoy it and are good at it, AI art lacks substance and heart. Always be sure to support your fellow artists!

[@notto5937]

I'm not against making AI art Illegal or restricted.

[@grayanddevpdx]

⁠@@notto5937 My opinion on AI art is it needs to be restricted, but it shouldn’t be illegal. It should only use images that are in the public domain, not copyrighted images. However, I believe corporations using AI art should be illegal because it’s a disservice to animators that are already being put through horrible conditions.

[@herisruns]

it's true that the current push for AI art is caused in major part by executives wanting to push out content faster and at a lower price. but i think that's only a part of a much larger and pre-existing problem. because the world is so oversaturated with legacy media today and there's a lot of competition from other artists, it's increasingly difficult to make works that seem genuinely new and unique, and that can capture a wide audience. not knowing of any sure-fire solution to this problem, big studios have focused on making their art more and more visually detailed with every year. it's turned into a sort of arms race to create the most visually stunning art. this is most clearly visible in anime. take at any major anime from the past 10 years, and compare it to a similar anime from before. the lighting and backgrounds and fine details are usually much more complex than they ever had to be, in the newer anime. this sounds fine in theory. the viewers get a higher quality product in the end. but constant one-upmanship is definitely unsustainable in the long term. japanese animators are extremely overworked, and even then they're often not able to meet expected quotas. the production of "attack on titan" has been stretched over more than 10 years with constant hiatus, because of the insane amount of work that its detailed art style requires. this killed a lot of the hype that the show had early on, and it probably would have been canceled without a proper ending if the manga didn't have such a huge following. any anime that doesn't bring in a net profit in the first season is usually canceled. studios used to be able to take a risk on a less popular property, and fall back on the profits from their most successful content when necessary. that's increasingly difficult to do, because every anime production is now a huge undertaking with their hyper detailed art. and there isn't any extra money in the industry to cover all of the extra labor that detailed art requires. there may even be less, now that consumption has shifted from TV and blu-ray discs to streaming. AI art seems like a convenient way to cut straight to the hyper detailed art that consumers now expect, with far less labor. even if the technology isn't 100% there just yet. if nothing else, the novelty of AI as a technology may be able to capture the attention of a certain demographic. but maybe this isn't even a real problem that animation studios are so eager to solve. maybe viewers can be content to view anime that's just slightly less visually detailed. we were fine watching flat characters with minimal lighting in the early 2000s, before all of the fancy digital effects that made more detailed art possible. if animation studios would just focus less on the finer details, they'd be able to produce anime of reasonably high quality with far less "crunch" in their process, and they wouldn't have to use any shortcuts, including AI. "working for a god in a godless world" is a rare example of a recent anime that intentionally uses less labor-intensive animation styles, and it's gained a sizable following for its unique look

I always value the input from artists on AI 'Art', so departure from typical content sphere or not, I'm here for it. My opinion is that AI has a place as a tool to _assist_ artists, but I don't see the substance or value in taking every piece of art on the internet, putting it in a blender, and then siphoning out enough to cobble together an image that you like.

[@walmaker8372]

Everywhere I go, I see your face.

[@Buglin_Burger7878]

That is what art is, you see things you like and you learn how to put them together in a way you like.

[@hotboxhearse]

i am in no way on the ai art train, but this is the weakest possible argument, especially when you acknowledge that it can be "an image that you like." besides that most ai art being spread from ai-bros is ugly, do you not value the prospect of liking an image? when discussion on art is centered around "value," it almost always crumbles into noncognitivity, because it is overarchingly subjective by nature, and attempts to measure it objectively do not translate to human perception. building your perspectives foundation on the idea of value while also denying that liking something may give it personal value is especially egregious. value debate resolves nothing, and both sides of this continue to prove to be annoying twitter dwellers

[@Serial_Designation_V7638]

Honestly, growing up in a age where AI Art wasn’t even a thing at the time due to the limited technological possibilities during the early 2000’s is something I cherish, I prefer the challenge of hand drawing things when it comes to my creativity. But now in this day of age where slightly complicated things or even the simplest thing can be easily created with a click of a button, and honestly, I’m just going to stick with hand drawn art over this new AI stuff. It feels more accomplishing by going through trial and error when drawing stuff, now this doesn’t mean I hate AI art, I just mildly dislike it. However sadly, AI art is a thing that’s going to stay. Now I said whatever I had to say about this matter. Great job on the video, keep up the great work.

[@phorchybug3286]

I sometimes use AI as a little toy for goofing off. I still stick with my own tools and techniques for actual art.

[@tonkofwisdom3788]

I love this channel so much lol. I see AI as a tool more so than a replacement of art and voice acting. The issue is to the extent at which its a tool and when it’s no longer justifiable to use it as such. On a small scale and large scale, it’s a really tricky answer but I love the take that ai itself can be useful, it’s the creation behind it that becomes the problem as it’s more so a tool for money than actual creation. I myself can’t really draw, nor am I voice actor so using ai to do some fun personal side projects is cool, but I could begin to imagine the impacts AI is already having and will continue to have towards people who create on any level. I don’t think animators or voice actors are going anyway anytime soon because for one it’s impossible and two, you will always have people who will want organic creations but it’s definitely bizarre and times concerning to see how Ai is just rapidly advancing. Cool video tho :D

Perhaps artists in the industry should go on strike like the WGA, the movie and film industries (and maybe more) are already suffering for this. I would gladly set aside a few years with no new games, anime/cartoons, etc. Just to show the people in power how important we are to the creative process

[@heyhackurs]

They definitely should before its too late to strike. Don't let big companies train off your hard work without consent

[@Buglin_Burger7878]

Going on strike when technology is coming that can replace you is asking to be replaced. The point of technology is to replace jobs so we can focus on hobbies or have shorter periods of work. All this does is encourage more advancements in AI till it can be self sustained off of 1-2 writers/artists. You won't get everyone to strike or a few new people will come in and see this as their chance.

[@pubertdefrog]

@@Buglin_Burger7878 the WGA already won their strike and god nearly everything they asked for, they won’t have to strike again for a couple years. I also feel you underestimate how dedicated people are to their jobs, so they aren’t going to let a computer take their position so they have to work a crappy job they never signed up for. Honestly, it’s probably a good thing that strikes are happening this early. Otherwise thing could get unnecessarily violent (which I hope it doesn’t), because it turns out when you push people to the edge, they rebel. Luddites back in the Industrial Revolution lost was because 1: less people to overwhelm the businesses, 2: people had a much harder time connecting and creating big protests, and 3: laws are in place to prevent companies from brutality attacking protesters

Please make more stuff like this! We need to address a lot of things in the world of so called „development“. Having more technology doesn‘t make us any better if we use it wrong. In fact, the „developments“ of the past decades (how long exactly is up for debate) have led to a decrease in valuing the people. Instead, products and content are the kings now. Indeed, capitalism is dehumanising and in fact, I‘ve written a school essay about this recently. And in the end, we can do better. The individual must become our focus of attention while making society work better. In fact, appreciating each others differences, discrepancies and preferences will lead to a better society.

Dam, I really feel this as someone who has for a long time been learning programming for it all to suddenly feel useless as chatgpt codes entire projects in one fell swoop, I could see a lot of programmers being delegated to checking what chatgpt outputs, and artists could follow a similar path in the future; Although I sincerly hope none of the two end up happening, I doubt it is within the control of any of us. Though this is very reminiscent of AI generated music: it has already been available for years and been convincing(though no lyrics) but it has never replaced music artists. Both kind of AIs will give you a sort of average of what you would expect to see if you googled the promt, and thus it doesn't have any inherent variation, it has no soul and instead of representing any one person they represent only an average. This limitation could be what dooms AI, at least for a while.(until they can generate new ideas on their own becoming creative) (But there doesn't seem to be any hope for coding T_T )

[@thecreativeducky5781]

[@skinnypenis1]

As someone who recently got in college for computer science, I was also feeling the anxiety of programming being a dead job in a few years. However, I read some things that do make me believe coding jobs might not die so quickly. I will add that whenever I get stuck and try to use ChatGPT for hints, it more often than not takes some back-and-forth for something to actually work the way I intended it to be even after giving as much context as I can. With the state AI is in, it really is not fit for developing entire programs. Unless you have different experiences than me, I find AI only useful for general advice. Andrew Schmelyun's blog post "AI is a fad and programming is dead" and the recent Purdue University study where apparently ChatGPT gets only 48% of StackOverflow questions right does make me confident that we will still have some jobs. We just have to see what happens.

3:35 I like how the guys who looks "exactly like you" looks nothing like you, likely because you didn't wanna draw... that.

[@justinibarra357]

I COMPLETELY agree with you on that what makes art so amazing is that somebody made it; somebody's creativity and imagination is being shown to me. AI art can look amazing and fit all of my aesthetics. But it means nothing to me because it was made by a cold, heartless software program and not by a living breathing person. Great vid! I've been hearing a lot of people supporting AI, even other artists. I felt like I was alone in this idea or even ignorant or backwards. So, watching your video made me feel not so lonely in this.

It sounds like you might not have a lot of perspective from folks who make art for a living who are using these tools, at least outside of social media. I’d suggest talking to them to get a better understanding of the tools and what they can and can’t do. I’ve found them useful for creating “speculative art” designed to simulate what characters/scenes from the Pokémon universe would look like in live-action or CGI in order to spur/frame discussion. You can see some examples in shorts I’ve published recently.

Just found your channel and adore this presentation. Your character is adorable ajshfhskozjh

[@goombaballdasher969]

I really needed to hear this, and I think a lot of other artists need to hear this too thank you fluffy youtuber, ai cannot be replaced by the the indomitable spirits of artists

[@stuff31]

Very well-made video! AI is definitely something which we need to regulate. As long as companies have unrestricted access to it the more they will do to use it to replace real artists. Can it be useful? Yes! But we need to realise that once we remove that human element, that "art" no longer has a soul, and art with no soul will never beat art that does have one. Stay strong, artists

[@JLMBUTYOUTUBE]

I’ve shared this with so many of my fellow art friends just to remind them that as they like what they’re drawing, then they should keep drawing

[@CitruKori]

I always loved making art and showing it to my family and friends, and though I do think ai art and other things are really cool, I think they should be modified so the creativity of art isn’t overshadowed. Great video btw!

[@Jacadamia]

Thank you!!

[@juskillintime1872]

Totally worth the wait! This was such a breath of fresh air! Looking forward to seeing what else you cook up down the road. :D

[@rileyfaucett8]

You got me at "Cucker Tarlson". Liked, subscribed, instant fan.

[@Jacadamia]

wasnt sure if anyone heard that haha, thank u!

[@asdf30111]

I think AI tech can be used for good too. Image instead of using AI voice to clone someone elses voice. You use it to clone your own voice but have it speak in a language the listener understands. Image clicking on any video on youtube and knowing no matter what languages you understand the video will be spoken in these languages. Though I undestand how for someone else the same thing I value as a good not being held back by language barriers, can be seen as ill that will take many current spoken languages and take them from being that humans own to something mostly only machines know how to talk in. However I think as long as respect is had, there is a value in talking and exploring how we should move forward with the new possibilities that we now find before us now.

[@jad4693]

i love it when people list the music used in descriptions its just great

Another banger video from the Nut, to be expected of course c:

And this made me no that all art is good old art new art it’s fine bc the it doesn’t matter how bad or good it is :) so ty

[@DrgnAnim]

I genuinely appreciate this video. For my english class, I centered my research around AI art, its development, and ethics regarding it. Needless to say, a lot of the scholarly articles I've been finding have all been pitching the concept that people need to let go of the idea that creativity is a trait exclusive to humans. When these articles fail to understand that what these AI models are doing isn't "creative". They're all coming at this topic with the perspective that it's an inevitability and humans need to accept that AI will snuff out artists (aka that capitalist "just good enough and free" idea presented in the video). But I think the perspective of artists is crucial to furthering this conversation, and understanding "the why" behind what an artist does is something I feel like a lot of people forget. To reiterate your point, artists make art because it's fun, its the communication of ideas and concepts in a visual format. These AI models aren't communicating or creating ideas of their own, it's taking these prompts given by humans and spitting something out based on what you told it. And pushing the idea that this is creative, COMPLETELY devalues the skill of "being an artist". I'm all for AI developments that help artists (i remember seeing one animation program that uses machine learning to help color your animation cells), but developing it to remove artists from the equation is completely futile and only perpetuates the "content problem" we find today.

[@Jacadamia]

Completely agree, and thank you!! I think the major problem is that most companies view art as just a product, in the most commercial type of way. And unfortunately social media and the “grindset” pushes a lot more artists towards feeling this way as well- as if you and your art only have value if it looks a certain way or if you put out enough of it regularly. Feels like an uphill battle but that’s why i wanted to make this video!! Glad you got something from it :>

[@meow-kay2998]

your videos are my new obssesion

[@VjConMemes]

Robots are cool, but only as a tool Humans are unique, but beware, of the kind that wants richness... hurting others Nice video btw, we can resolve these problems, but only together

[@promania8956]

I will never stop drawing and making art beacuse i do it beacuse i love it, Ive always loved it and always come back to it, no matter what happens with technology i will never stop drawing and making art beacuse its what i love to do. To get my creativity, thoughts and ideas on paper or in a computer program and feeling that iam improving and being proud of what ive made. Ill never let that stop.

[@maiqu]

babe new jacadamia video dropped

[@FabbrizioPlays]

Me personally, I'm just going to use AI in ways I find ethical to complete my own goals (as an individual without the finances to hire a team in the first place even if I wanted to - and I DO want to). And simultaneously, I'm going to push for more strict legislation on what kind of inputs an AI can be trained on, and what kinds of disclosures are necessary for the outputs. The genie isn't going back in the bottle, so these are the only two things I can do.

[@Lightningstar..]

1:08 yesssssss I love death

[@purpleskelet0n412]

Totally great video! all the points are perfect, I totally agree. I definitely am on the stance of "ai can assist" side, and he'll I've done it before, it's good for concepting character designs, but when it came to stealing from artists, that's where I draw the line. I think its a very situational thing, support wise, if it's helping artists, I'm all for it! But if it's taking from them instead, then no way. It's definitely down to personal opinion and stances on things, even a moral thing in some cases.

[@jakubsosnowski7724]

We just have to hope the AI datascraping gets regulated, it wouldn't be a problem in the first place if big companies didn't just steal art from people. There are senate hearings regarding that recently and they seem in the favour of the artists.

[@sleeziely_1259]

Unrelated to AI, but this reminds me of a teacher I had once. He told a story about how he had studied to create master paintings, and in the end found no market for them in the contemporary times, where museums accepted abstract artworks and whatnot. Although tragic to find artists unable to make a living or struggling, he still pushes onward. Best teacher

[@warrior1590]

If I had to give a short summary of the subject, it would be AI and computer tech as a whole is fine, but it can often feel like its being used exclusively to replace work or for instant gratification.

[@MollyFox-gs3sl]

The Hayao Miyazaki quote hit me like a brick

[@JayClash]

AI sorta spooks me ngl

[@agaldoo]

The best part is you can tell between them

[@giggymuun]

i pray it’ll end up like crypto

[@scribblecloud]

to me the main 3 uses of ai images are 1. money 2. amusement 3. use as ideas or inspiration while ill always judge the first reason, i will not judge anyone for the latter two, those things are pretty much inconsequential. the third is similar to tracing peoples art in private to practice, ai can be very useful to ask more specific questions (includes chatgpt and such too) and get some more specific and useful and interesting ideas and examples than google results and images the point of art is creative expression, i dont see ai "art" replacing real art, it just feels different, like thats like saying i could just commission people for any and all art of my characters instead of drawing it myself, but i dont because its just not the same as drawing my own stuff! (i still commission artists just prefer doing my own art)

[@StyxYRenegade]

Handsome Wolf reference. Straight up.

[@minecraftgamerxbox2004]

Finally some new video from you❤

[@YounesThud]

6:22 I agree, art is subjective.

[@CringePoop]

i think it should be used by individuals making stuff not for profit, not big companies. i also think money should be purple

[@sleepibunnycat]

you are correct.
