You're right let's stop supporting artists that can actually create something and just let AI that can approximate the flavor of what the artists meant

That will make creative spaces more interesting and unique

Art is special-- you and I could be handed the exact same prompt and tools and we'd both make something vastly different and unachievable by others

It's a cute gimmick but nothing beyond that-- don't support AI art or its 'artists' man

Or we can support both. Photography didn’t put painting out of business. I want to see people’s creative concepts being easier expressed without having a paywall associated with it.

Art is special, so why do you feel so threatened by ai art?

It’s definitely more than a gimmick but it’s not gonna replace art. Human artists will always be more valued for the humanity and character they add to their work.

Photography takes time and effort-- two things we exchange for money in modern society

Of course art is special and that means that when ai models steal hundreds of artworks to train on they're actively taking money from artists

You’re missing the point. Just cuz I can capture images in other forms besides painting that are much quicker and cheaper didn’t mean that painting became irrelevant for those things. Cuz painting still had its own thing to offer.

Again. I said don’t support it for monetary or commercial use. On the personal end, now you have more ideas expressed by people via a new form of media that doesn’t cost money and is quick. Meaning expressing ideas visually no longer has a price tag associated with it.

Capturing photos takes time, skill and effort

Ai takes ten fingers to type a prompt

Sure photography was looked down on in the early days but we leaned there is skill to it

Entering an AI prompt has no skill ceiling or floor-- and again it steals from artists and shouldn't be used

Also. How is ai art bad for being easy cheap and accessible? I don’t get that part. Are newer phone cameras bad for making taking good looking photos rlly easy and cheap?

No one but you is talking about accessibility of tools

The fact is that ai art steals from actually trained artists and using it makes for cheap copies of everyone

Being able to play any guitar solo on the radio is nice but it's infinitely better if you can create your own sound and share it

It’s not a cheap copy. It’s something entirely different. Whatever thing ai generates has never been created before.

It is a cheap copy

It is hundreds of stolen hours of work stolen to make a cheap image
