A.I. generated images are attempted murder on the human spirit. An attempt to kill art. It will not work. But it still scares me
I know! Science Fiction has shown us for decades what happens if we make AI, but still we continue with it! The human race is doomed!!!
The human race has only got to last another 30-40 years or so (which would put me between 83 and 93 years old)
I hate it,A.I isn't art it is a copy past generator using other peoples hardwork.It is a tool so the rich can be even richer without having to rely on people.
It's souless,and ugly.
Guys, Gen AI isn't skynet, that's giving it waaay too much credit for what it actually is.
They may call it AI, but it is anything but intelligent. There's no thought, no reason behind the calculations. All it is is an extensive list of labeled input and an algorithm that can make an aggregate output based on that. It doesn't understand what it's doing like how a human understands.
These things aren't suddenly going to "wake up" and decide to launch all the world's nukes. They're single use machines that can only perform their one task. Pretending otherwise plays into the marketing spiel of these techcompanies, who can then pretend they have something more on their hands than just a plagiarism machine.
Everything starts somewhere...a logical thinking powerful machine will definitely think the human species is awful.
But on more practical concerns it's that the technology always is ahead of the ethics and no one wants to slow down and think about them because it's a capitalist race. Like you're referring to, AI has the ability to plagiarise every piece of art produced before someone puts in the laws to protect creators.
Or not getting to heavily into social politics, but the prejudices that have been found in face recognition technologies obviously programmed in from the society its created in.
I can kinda accept it, if you need an idea and only use it for inspiration. It's still not good, because you detrain your brain to be crearive... But okay.
Other than that, no thanks! My little sis experiments with AI generated music and yes, she puts a ton of work in it to get the right outcome... Still, it sounds so lifeless, I don't like to listen to it.
But what makes me angry, is when people sell AI generated stuff on little art and crafts markets... Gosh I was so pissed, when I figured out, I bought AI stuff! I GO to such markets to SPECIFICALLY help artists and not to buy lifeless art!

I recently watched a video on why AI machines currently can't show a "to the rim filled glass of wine", it only knows what its training data shows it.
I think we need to sit this out. At some point AI is going to poisdon itself. But we will see.
Don't know if you people are aware of how AI art is actually created, for example, if the engine needs to draw a curve, it simply resorts to a mathematical function to do it, computers can't draw at all, all you see is a complex set of analytic functions trying to mimick a form. It's common to see fractals and repeated patterns in that type of "ART". It's nothing but an ilusion, it aint art at all.
Real art is all about randomness and manual strokes, and computers totaly suck at it.
Eeeh, I highly doubt it. It's not machines ruling over us that we should fear, rather the ones already in power using machines to make their control more absolute.
Why though? Why is it logical to think the human race is awful. There's nothing objective about it, even "logic" itself is not something that exists naturally in nature, it's a human invention. So a machine that would 'logically' conclude the human race is awful will do so based on the logic of the person or people that made it in the first place. And yeah, there are plenty people out there (including the most powerful amongst us) that think humanity is awful.
So again, it's not the machines that need to be feared, but the people that wield them against us.
Pretty much this.
The way I see it, the dystopia we are potentially barreling towards is not that of terminator, but a cyberpunk one.
I do confused when some people seem to put a ton of work prompt engineering the AI to produce a desired outcome. That kind of defeats the supposed "convenience" the AI is supposed to bring, no? No one's forcing you to produce the result using AI. At that point, it might be a better use of time to just learn the skill yourself
My hubby does a lot with AI and hangs out with a lot of professional graphic designers who use AI. The way they explained it to me that for good pictures, you're either spending thousands for the models and photographers, spending hours searching for the right elements online, or you're spending hours drawing to get the elements you need for the final project. AI lets them take like ten minutes to generate a dozen reference images they can harvest for the final piece.
And with AI music, it doesn't really bother me. Musicians sample other musicians all the time and even big name composers are composing masterpieces on an IPad. If AI can help songwriters get more songs out so they can sell them to record labels, why not?
I have been accused of AI art to the point I had to take down all my pieces that I did not show full process of creation from beginning to end. I never did a timeline before cause I didn't get into digital art until the most recent years.
You're kidding me. The hate for it is well in range. People use Ai art more and more, using people's literal work to create something that isn't really theirs.
It lacks the humanity of a drawing but its creative bounds can grow. It doesn't have emotion or errors or anything of the sort. But its learning how to.
I saw some ad for some AI app on YouTube and the examples it gave were literally just Anne Hathaway from The Princess Diaries. The app was trying to claim they generated it but it was obviously just stolen.
I often wonder if some AI images are mostly just putting a filter over an image instead of making something new.
