Despite how hard I try to remain optimistic, it’s pretty stressful watching AI progress as a young 3D artist. I quite honestly can’t imagine life being worth living for me if the visual art industry is automated. It’s difficult not to get emotional about it because Im so passionate about my career and one day, all the work I put in/experience I have could mean essentially nothing. I always question “just why would you replace artists?” because it seems a bit evil on the surface. Artists typically love what they do and find fulfillment from their work. This isn’t hamburger flipping. Additionally, artists are already constantly shamed for all their quirks but only accepted because their skills prove useful to many businesses who rely on their creative talent. I cant imagine how poorly artists would be treated by the business class if their skills served no monetary value. I’d rather be f&@king dead than work a boring, awful job for decades just because society hasn’t figured out how to automate it yet. The only thing that keeps me optimistic is that I love what I do so much I shouldn’t really care if a robot can do it better than me. I do it because it brings me peace and calms my mind. It’s no secret, art is therapy for many artists. I also hope people love supporting other people and don’t care as much about supporting robots. Handmade clothing and jewelry still exists despite much of the field being automated so that’s somewhat promising. So hopefully when all digital art can be automated, our society will find a way to value and support digital artists. Idk. I’m always cautious to publicly comment on the topic because it’s so emotionally charged, I’m afraid I’ll change my mind tomorrow. Nonetheless, this is how I often feel about it when my anxiety goes through the roof. I hope my perspective serves some purpose other than to be mocked 😅 If so, I'll make a video about it to inspire digital artists to keep pursuing their dreams. The script is already written haha

I've talked to a bunch of people in the industry about it and the opinions seem pretty consistent all across the board, you wont have to worry about AI replacing us anytime soon. As mentioned in the video if you observe ai images they dont really look defined, they just kind of resemble things we know so you could never use them for any other purpose then to look interesting. From there it's our job as artists to make sense of them if we want to use them as a tool. I'm pretty much just repeating the points from the video but as long as you practice your fundamentals and always keep pushing your skills you wont have to worry about being replaced anytime soon. As soon as AI will be able to pump out fully playable and interesting games by just typing a prompt, that's when we might be fucked lol

AI Art went from a laughable toddler level to beginner concept artist level in just a few years. While I dont believe it will replace all artists and their jobs, it will ultimately be a unique/rare decision to choose to hire human concept artists at some point (like 20-30 yrs from now). So only the best of the best will make a living as a concept artists. Which in reality, is kinda how it already is anyways lol

@@brewmeup5827 Being creative is an entirely different domain then anything any AI has done so far. An ai could generate collections of words or pictures based on various equations inputs, and get really good at generating these with a high probability of effecting humans emotionally and culturally. But it couldn't generate meaning from them itself. Even in this world where AI can generate art that convincing, there will always need to be a human in the loop to realize which art is meaningful or not. This future however, will likely never come. We don't even have fully functional self driving cars. It's really easy to get 80%, and make an ai that's really impressive. That's worth a paper and worth talking about. But able to replace a human? Then things become exponentially more difficult. I suspect some AI will be able to surpass that last gap on the exponential difficulty curve, but it's not a given that technology keeps progressing at an exponential rate forever. I agree completely about tech eating the job market and ending up with a tiny elite class with all the power. Although I can see a world where technology is used to give every person the ability to create his own shelter, food, and energy. There will likely eventually be open source versions of all these ai so the owners of the proprietary versions won't have all the power. Also the problem of a few people having all the power has been around since agriculture made the city-state possible, nothing new there. Basically things are not as bleak as you seem to paint them as, and on top of that these predictions are incredibly optimistic and A-historic. All movements from agricultural to industrial hit plateau after growing exponentially, and the informational revolution will likely do the same. 2 minute papers is a good channel btw, I'm also a technical artist working in cg

@@444-w8k Interesting,,, and for what its worth I hope you are correct and I am not.. although I don't think thats the case personally. Creativity is an abstract term,.. as an example you can see on 2 minute papers a series of videos where they are pitting digital agents against each other in a game of catch that is running for like.. 2 million iterations or something nuts.... and it shows why ai and machine learning is bound to overtake us.... oh this was like.. last year or something too,.. anyway,.. the reason we can't compete is due to the way it learns compared to the way we learn.... the ai starts out slow.... for like the first million iterations its just figuring out how to move around... but after about a million it suddenly figures out how to run,... then it figures out how to predict the opponent,... and the competition becomes quite interesting to watch.. but the the thing to note is.. after a few more itereations,.. one of the AI's literally glitches the program so that it stalemates its oponent..since that was the team that was trying to not get caught it wins by default,.. I can't recall the specific thing it did.. something like managed to make its way up to a corner on a ledge that was modelled into the environment and it clipped there and just stayed.... in some of the iterations before it won it was also doing things like blocking entry ways, and exploiting other glitches to get a head start on the other team of agents... That is creativity.... hell that is more creative than what half the people I know could come up with... That is the power of AI,.. it can literally run simulations against a copy of itself millions of times to try out every possible variable. There is a big difference between a computer and a machine learning ai.... and there is not as much of a difference between creativity and crunching numbers,.. thats why you can catagorize almost every story ever made into one of 7 plot lines.... ... about the plateau,.. the thing is... we aren't at the end of the industrial boom anymore,.. we are actually at the start of a trifecta of emerging tech that is going to trigger the next technological revolution. Those are,.. yes AI,... Which due to machine learning is essentially guarenteed to outperform people in almost every single way given enough time. Genetic editing.... think krispr,.... and virtual reality. there are quite a few reports and papers from some fairly on the ball people who discuss how these are already engrained in our lives and will force our species to change how our society is set up for the first real time in thousands of years... from what you are saying it sounds like you are thinking of AI as a powerful GPU or CPU.. but its a completely different beast. So far all AI is specialized... but once we cross that line of a matured general intelligence AI... we are out competed.... We simply do no thave the cognative ability to keep up with that type of intelligence. mainly because we can't use machine learning... at the same time I don't think its a horrible fate... if you think about it... AI is a new type of life,... the collective offspring of the human species,.... and personally I hope it does develop into a great intelligence capabale of seeing far beyond what we can see... or maybe we will merge.. hard to say exactly.. but one thing I can feel pretty certain about... is that if we survive another 50 years.... the world will be vastly different in large part due to AI.

Humans created machines that could lift many tons a long time ago, yet powerlifter still try to lift as much as possible. Trains could run fastest than a human, yet we still celebrate the worlds fastest. AI can generate paintings convincingly and in large numbers, yet are similarly without soul. As an artist you should ask yourself, if you had an assistant you told your ideas to, who drew and painted everything for you on your command, should the assistant get the credit for being the artist? Of course not. Very few people, even when given the most effective assistant possible, would be abe to create a powerful work of art. The work and styles of concept artist like H Giger or Moebius wouldnt exist without them even if an AI was generated their images for them. Thats the difference between an artist and a draughtsman

Painters don’t compete directly with photographers, yet photographers have an unfair advantage to snap tens of photos in literally seconds. Imo, it’s naive to believe this technology won’t eventually be just as capable as the average concept artist as it went from chicken scratch bullshit to shockingly decent art in just 2 years. As it goes for corporate jobs, however, I don’t see a bright future for most concept artists unfortunately. I too am deeply concerned about that. More so than many concept artists I’ve spoke with.

I understand using it as a tool, but I have little to no interest drawing like a toddler on Nvidia Canvas to let the ai do all the fun work and spit out a beautiful image. Was it the painters responsibility to become a photographer? That's ridiculous. They fell in love with painting, not photography and we respect that. Sure, we'll be expected to use such tech when we're hired as concept artists, but adopting it just for the sake of earning money is missing the point of our dream jobs. Artist want to perform their craft passionately and get paid to do so. If the jobs become just "DALL-E made this image. Please move the waterfall 10 pixels to the left", it's not really fun, creative, and interesting anymore. To many artists, this doesn't sound like the craft they fell in love with. So we'll have to accept these jobs just to get by, not because we love them.

I have a few predictions 1- AI will speed up art ideation. Art will therefore be much quicker to produce. If this becomes the norm, perhaps expect shorter deadlines, or higher quantity of art to be expected, at least for the early phase in production. More art produced at the same level of work. 2- Future games might be bigger in scope, especially AAA games. More locations and environments, more costumes, more weapons, more everything because it is easier to generate art to clean up and build on top of. 3- Because 2d art will be quicker to produce, the 3d department might become a bottleneck. AAA game studios might need more 3d artists, unless 2d artists generalize or a good 3d AI comes as well. Or less 2d artists are needed. 4- Beginners could fake fundamental skills by being lucky on an AI generation to paint on top of. Basically making it more difficult to find good artists to hire that actually know how to design and render (still necessary even with AI). Therefore your work experience will become more important for getting hired. Beginner artists will have a harder time getting noticed if they are not better than AI. 5- In the far future we might have really good 2d and 3d AI's. Instead of having 2d and 3d artists, both jobs could be done by one person. Generate 2d, fix in photoshop, generate 3d, fix in 3d software. It becomes conceivable for a single person to do. Generalizing will therefore be more important in the future. 6-At the very least, it will become easier and less time consuming to produce certain kinds of textures for painting and 3d, especially anything that is random, organic, time consuming, and doesn't require a lot of fixing, like rocks, clouds, mountains, landscape stuff, etc. I am not sure about any of these, but its something to think about :)

When I saw someone type in a sentence to describe the art they wanted to see and it being rendered by the A.I. The first thing I thought was "Although it looks nice, it can be used as a starting point to toss some ideas around into it before committing to something." Yes some of the art the A.I makes will be good as is for some. However, what's great is that by typing in the sentence into the A.I and getting a result. It gives both you and/or someone else a starting point to talk about what vision they have. If I could make something tangible that everyone could see almost instantly and have a talking point without trying to think up something by what they said, I'd take that choice. I've made things exactly how someone described it and sometimes they say it didn't hit the mark at all. Yes, the A.I. generated art can also not hit the mark. However, since it's generated quick and can be tweaked quick. It allows us to communicate the vision better.

But seeing the internet flooded with AI generated art, it makes me a little worried if the effort I put in is noticed. I think it will be the same as photobashing. Currently, we are flashed by the impact of it, but after some time the style might get repetitive. For me personally, I have to think more like a businessman and less like a craftsman. Develop a narrative, animation, a USP, something that is on the next highest meta level. I feel most artists are very focussed on the craftsmanship and because of that it stings a lot.

You don't have to wait, current AI art looks sometimes very visually pleasing but also for the most part incredibly generic. And it couldn't be any other way, while these algorithms do not simply collate images, they are little more than high skill forgers/imitators. If AI art continues improving and becomes capable of being sufficiently sophisticated to replace the output of designers/concept artists with some guy writing some prompt lines, there's no way industry will not use it to replace human labor, and we'll come to the point that AI will in time have churned out way more artwork than any human could realistically. That, as you said, will be the point when AIs will likely begin to just use other AI art as reference, beginning and endless cycle of output with copy-pasted style. If you think that current pop culture is somewhat stale and repetitive, the current state of affairs won't hold a candle to the cultural human centipede that an AI dominated culture would probably look like. I just hope that this will not discourage people from pursuing art on their own terms, without or with limited AI aid, be it traditional or digital art, but the broad landscape looks bleak to me.

One analogy I'd give as an amatuaer musician is this: With digital audio workstations (DAWs, which can be thought of like Photoshop or Illustrator for music), the human errors can easily be corrected. For example, if the drummer goes off beat on a particular snare hit, one can drag the snare and 'snap' it back into beat. And with virtual instruments, you can get high quality sounds without actually having to play the instruments or even have them phisically. All this power enables one to produce music which is really slick, shiny, with every note perfectly tuned and falling on the precise beat. Well, it turns out, that overtime humans find such "perfect" music boring and even at some level, tiring. So the digital musicians go to great lengths to introduce 'noise' into the system, making notes fall off-beat, and all other tricks required to mimic a normal human performance with all it's flaws. Who knows once we are inundated with AI art, at some deep level, we may have a similar reaction !

A downside I haven't seen mentioned yet is how these kinds of tech developments will impact our imagination. For example, if an AI is creating real-time images for you based off an audio book, you're no longer using your own imagination. Sort of like how Siri and other voice-assistants destroyed inquisitive talk. No longer do people need to ponder or recall certain events when the answer is a simple voice command away. I fear AI technology is progressing faster than our ability to foresee potential consequences. A future generation may be on the horizon that would barely need to use their imagination for anything, which could jeopardize their ability to reason and/or think abstractly.

In short- we need to think of ourselves as music producers not guitars players. Most music producers aren’t masters of anything - but know their way around many different instruments and genres. Further more a concept artist myself here’s my two cents - as a community we have to start becoming more aware of the ‘meta’ of how our art is interpreted in the modern world. Every medium of art has a certain ‘lean’ in the way that you can push and present the medium and have it be the most impressive. It’s going to be more important now as artists to begin to clearly advertise what we are ‘getting at’ with in a given style that we are using. This will make us much more getable to the masses and will help us always stand out from Ai. We need to emphasize the human elements of art. Kim Jung Gi is a perfect example. He’s not the best artist at anything. (His drawings are busy and splotchy as shit let’s be honest). But he’s very transparent about ‘his thing’ and it becomes a performance to watch him draw. Just as we do not judge the violins in a pop song in the same way as we do an individual violinist, so we as artists must start to carve out these smaller domains of performative expression. Smaller more potent creative play spaces. And yes - this is way easier to do In traditional mediums. OR - join forces with the AI’s. Lastly- we need to expand our skillsets such that a team of 10 artists could make a very cool stylized little video game - with a very unique human centric style. Ori and the Will O wisps comes to mind. In short- we need to think of ourselves as music producers not guitars players anymore. Etc etc.

How will we structure our societies, and how are we going to make a living,.. when an AI can do 99.99% of things better than we can, This is going to break society on a global level, and there don't seem to be many poeple bringing this up... but hey... maybe AI wil be able to solve that issue for us too ey?

All customers? Surely not. A majority of them? Unlikely. But I guess that "AI-free" might in a few years even become a seal of quality to some who will be fed up with the (almost unavoidable) flood of AI content to come.

Artists will surely find something new to do, as that is what they take pride in- creating something that does not exist. Just like when the camera was invented, artists slowly lost meaning in drawing super realistic art. Then the Impressionism movement started which quenched their thirst. As an art form which is being worshipped today, which redefined the meaning of art, even impressionism received backlash at first from many artists, just like you said about photobashing. So definitely something new is going to come, the world will keep changing, however I am not sure how nicely we would accept it. I still can't accept photobashing for some reason.

You are a human - you function similarly; you adapt. That is what causes you to claim you will "just try something that does not exist"; but what keeps AI from doing the exact same thing?

No more new angles; just rehashing the same pool of images to create very similar looking results. But it will be blazing fast and cost efficient, so lots of digital artist will be cut out of the production process. And for what purpose? Exactly. To feed those at the top of the chain.

Your comparison of AI art to photobashing is pointless. This was never about the tool, AI is not a tool, it’s a human replacement. A new tool requires new training, new people, creates new opportunities, making more new jobs. Ai was designed to reduce employment, cut down budget, slash the number and accumulate capital. While a tool transfer opportunities from one person to another, AI makes what could become everyone’s wealth die in the top few’s pockets. Artist is a highly comprehensive job, and if that could be replaced completely by AI, then virtually every job can. This is not a sign or problem just for the artists, it is a problem for everyone. Not to mention the incredibly unethical practices of AI’s Essenes, virtually cutting up pieces of existing art and pasting them together by mass user data mining. Artist should be paid for their art to be used in AI, and they should have the choice to opt out of it.

Exactly! I've been saying this for a decade, but people just are too dumb to realize the impact of technological advancements until FINALLY it is too late. AI is a tool that will be used to further divide capital. We already live in a world where over half the population lives in extreme poverty. Take for example India: one of the biggest food exporting countries in the world, while having one of the highest rates of starvation. Why? Because capitalism functions this way: exploit the weak to feed the already powerful. AI is going to make a lot of people obsolete and put them into poverty, just to faciliate even more luxery for those at the top. It's not that the technology itself is evil either; it is that we live in a society that handsomely rewards using it for malicious purposes.

It also cannot handle people super well and frankly, it doesn't do minute adjustments at all. It's still an all or nothing program. You'll always need a person to get *exactly* what you need. What I think it WILL do is cut down on amount of nonsense that concept artists are hired to do. Why spend your days concepting 1000 crates when you can just have a machine do it and you can focus on the more important stuff?

i agree with everything you said there.. and i also think AI has a LONG way to go before it even steps close to the creativity of a human mind. you need to keep feeding it key words for it to udnerstand what's in your head, and sometimes it gets close, but not enough. i agree it is a powerful tool for ideas, colors, compositions, but it won't be able to produce all of the final images we need :) and that's where the humans take back the reigns yeehaw

I'm not sure you've quite grasped the full extent of AI. It will replace all craft but the top tier talent which will simply tweak it. Eventually those will be replaced as well, as will other jobs. Until then, craftsmen will start disappearing, and almost only actual artists will remain. Those with ideas, able to tie things together and figure out novel ways of creating never before seen things with major impact will still have a job in the coming years. But craftsmen, the vast majority of people in film and games which we refer to as artists, will disappear. Large companies will suffer, as they mostly rely on their financial strength and numbers to create high quality content with craftsmen, thus gaining a market edge. A true artist, or two, will eventually be able to create fresh and compelling experiences in no time from their basement and release them globally. Right now there are machine learning algos yet unreleased to the public which are able to animate, rig, code, write copy and control machinery. They will become more capable and not too long in the future will start being developed to develop other more efficient machine learning algos. It could be an amazing future for all, but only if we start looking at society differently, restructuring it to have AI serve the needs of the.majority rather than the few.

For AI to benefit humankind we would have to get rid of capitalism. Capitalism rewards exploiting the weak. Unfortunately capitalism VERY AGGRESSIVELY reinforces its own status quo; the means are in the hands of the few, which can be used to suppress the demands of the many.

I don't know how I feel about it to be honest. It is a TOOL that's for sure, but I do not think it will replace the artist... the soul of the painting/picture is not there nor will it ever be (in my opinion). But as in your example it may facilitate production art... e.g. for a vfx house or game studio perhaps... where iteration is an important part of the process, as is the time (is money). But for "artists" as opposed to "designers" (there's a difference)... it won't replace them.

Leaning into any tool and using it as a crutch is always bad for your personal development as artists. I can see this being a nice thumbnail idea generator for more experienced artists that already have good fundamental skills. But for more junior artists it can be pretty bad as you lean more into midjourney or other AI generator to do big chunck of the work for you. Rather than spend the time to learn those skills yourself. Same goes with photobashing i´ve seen a heck of a lot more bad photobashing than good one. But that´s what happens when you focus more on the details and presentation rather than the idea and storytelling.

Art needs beauty and meaning. AI might be able to recreate things like the "Alegria" style / "corporate art", because it has no beauty or meaning. Postmodern "art" will probably be automated.

It is kinda like magic. So many possibilities and mostly it surprises me with how good it is! I too fear the downsides. But part of me wonders if actual paintings might go up in value as they are really "real" things made by hand and hence rare and unique... people might value the objects themselves more? I have a similar thing with film photography... if I see an amazing old hand printed b&w photo from actual film, and the lighting and image is amazing I just have more respect for the photographer as you know it hasn't been digitally manipulated compared to a thousand great photos online and hence has more value somehow to me. But it might almost shift these analogue formats into being seen as "antiques"... still rare and valuable but from another era... the current one is about to be flooded by millions of mind-blowing images... and I'm not sure how its all gonna work out!

This is quite exciting for me. If ai art keeps progressing then I may be able to bring some of my larger ideas to life without relying on a studio full of people or a lifetime spent on one project. I believe this would open up a world of new possibilities for the individual artist.

Personally I don't like the AI stuff I see a lot of it and none of it makes visual sense to me. It looks confusing and like a bunch of stuff. Artistic like maybe e NFT stuff but I don't find it useful honestly. We will see. It's worrisome. I just started learning this stuff and I would have to have everyone poof for just another job replaced by robots
