Or more preciselly, I feel some people already forgot that those AI generation tools are created by sucking all the art they can find, mash bunch of people’s art and then spitting the result.
So if you found some artist have similar style to some Ai, It was pretty much actually the opposite. It was the Ai that has similar style to the “artist”. In this case, me and thousands other artist like me may already have our data in the black box. Mashing our art into oblivion.
Relegating us into AI copy, but worse.
I have seen some artist got accused of using AI when creating their art because their art looks too “AI” like. And yesterday, it was my turn to be doubted.
That definitely doesn’t look like AI, but then again, you can’t expect an average viewer to be that observant…
It didn’t happen to me yet, but I don’t post enough color work for that to happen. And I don’t post in other places than KA either. I’m sure it’s more of a matter of “when” rather than “if”.
Some people just want to be mean for no reason. Or they can’t accept that something just isn’t to their taste, it must also be morally wrong somehow. They’ll find their ways no matter what. Before AI it was “this looks traced”; now AI is the buzzword that gets the most attention.
But yeah, non artists often aren’t very good at judging art, and many people in general aren’t good at separating personal enjoyment form technical quality. Again, I’ve seen this play out with traced art/accusations of tracing since forever.
As a hobbyist, I’m glad that I don’t have to care about any of that. I know what I’m doing and that’s what matters to me.
I came across an account on X/Twitter posting anime sketch-style pictures (rougher lines, mostly flat colors) – I won’t name it not to funnel traffic their way – but… I was blown away by how good it was
If you don’t know your stuff, there’s no way you can tell it’s AI generated. Some posts had glaring issues, but it was definitely the minority. Most of it was almost perfect. No crooked hands, eyebrows, almost no hair artifacts, nice eyes. Like, if you were seeing it on a phone, you probably wouldn’t be able to tell.
This is much more insidious than the “fully rendered” type of pics, as these typically have a very distinctive look and common artifacts (mistakes). But this… ugh, it really shows how far the tech can go when the style, subject, and the AI model are working well together.
The future looks bleaker than ever…
Seriously, I wonder if they will start fabricating timelapses next. Nothing will feel real anymore.
so next step, new users trying to quit PS because of this, coming here to complain that Krita is not a perfect clone of Photoshop and asking to change habits of long time users of Krita because PS do it “the right way” and they don’t want to learn/change/adapt their workflow
I literally open this thread to post about this. LOL!
Here just two sections that you can’t believe is in a closed sourced, “industry standard” software.
that’s bad. even if they say its only for “service improvement” - it doesnt remove the possibility of the work to be taken and sold for training and other stuff.
Alot still not buying that.
I saw this scott guy from adobe defending/explaining their sides but quite a number of people are pointing out that a blog post is not legally binding while a TOS is and since the TOS is over reaching that it can still be used in the future for anything adobe can think of.
Some adobe user pointed out that for improvement of services was already use before for adobe stocks - to justify training firefly. So there are still privy users.
Honestly if im them - im not trusting that blog post [even if its by adobe] until those limitation are in the TOS itself.
About things AI can’t do now,… It’s just for now. AI as we know it is yesterday, AGI will be the ultimate beast. It will think (almost) like humans, rationalize, identify cause and effect interactions. In 2 or 3 years, there will almost not be any cognitive, intellectual task that AGI won’t be able to do. I’m afraid that “general” really means “general”.
It’s wonderful what you can do if you have lots of money and/or a way to influence politicians:
In March, Tennessee became the first U.S. state to pass legislation to protect songwriters, performers and other music industry professionals against the potential dangers of artificial intelligence. Supporters said the goal is to ensure that AI tools cannot replicate an artist’s voice without their consent.
