I don’t trust anyone who talks about ‘creators’ instead of artists.
I fucking hate the unquestioned assumption that speed and efficiency are always better and that everyone should strife for them. Maybe i like the process, maybe i like taking things slow and not rushing stuff, be that programming or art or whatever.
Plus in most cases, efficiency doesn’t reflect in your bottom line anyways, just the share holders, but we’ve been so brainwashed to see it as a virtue
It’s because of the commodification. They don’t recognize art, only content and units of sellable culture. And because of the implication that they expect a cut, unearned.
Ai conceptual art is still scraped from artists who physically made the art in the first place . Without humans building art by hand it wouldn’t have existed.
I literally saw the word Disney plastered in a language learning ‘AI’ story on YouTube. It wasn’t even Disney related material. That’s how bad and lazy it is at scraping. It’s even scraping the logos from the creators it’s stealing from.
It’s not AI. It hasn’t created anything. So we should stop calling it that.
It’s just plaigerism. Just call it plaigerism. “I plaigerized a story. I plaigerized all the concepts for it” stop pretending you created a damned thing. You’re fooling nobody

It’s true in the sense that it’s fantastic at laying down a template for your ideas, which you can then refine and finesse yourself.
The only issue is what capitalism is doing with it. I use AI a lot for my daily job, but it fills me with dread knowing how limited my future is because of it.
The Luddites didn’t smash all those machines because they were afraid of them. They were more than happy to use the fancy new tools to make them more efficient. They just didn’t want to sacrifice their standard of living to do it.
mark has a vested interest in the success of AI. anything he says is for the enrichment of his investments.
don’t listen to mark, he’s a shill.
But the AI also tells stories. So even if your story is great, it will be drowned in thousands of AI slop stories. Publishing houses can already not screen new novels anymore because they are getting flooded with hundreds of AI generated books every day (complete with AI generated, fake authors).
I hate upvoting these things but they’re in a f AI community so it’s appropriate
Just goes to show it wasn’t intelligence that made them rich.
Cuban used AI to prepare to go on Pablo Torre’s podcast and made an ass out of himself, so I don’t trust his evaluation of AI’s capabilities.
curious that every single artist i know hates this shit
Artistic mastery isn’t gatekeeping, but I understand the sentiment. It’s nice to have the ability to do rapid prototyping, but I’m against AI being used in place of craftsmanship. “The art advances but the artisan recedes.”
Was this written by an LLM?
I’m not sure, they didn’t say whether I’ll LOVE AI enough…
Ah yes I too love it when I get results with none of the actual creative process, because the end result is all that matters
Signed a fellow human
All of the inadequacies and personal failures that prevented you from doing what GenAI does for you now are still there. Those things are why you were a failure before AI, and why you will be a failure after AI. The quicker you recognize that, the less time you’ll spend being an obnoxious asshole and making a fool of yourself by larping as the artist you’ve always fantisized of being. You were nothing before, you are nothing now. Get over yourself, otherwise you will continue to be nothing until the day you die. Once you truly understand this, maybe you’ll be able to fix it. Not before.
AI makes uncreative people pretend to be creative.
It makes them create stuff that looks like shit to the trained eye, but is good or good enough for them, thus they don’t have to pay money to an actual professional. That doesn’t only relate to art, but to IT stuff as well. If you want it done right, hire a professional.
It’s the same with the “but my nephew can do it for a tenth of the price”-folks.
This is exactly what my friend who was a copywriter told me several years ago; now he manages the company’s AI production pipeline. They mostly do b2b. But essentially, the AI even then could produce stuff that was 80% good for 10% of the money, and infinitely quicker and scalable. And that’s plenty good for what they’re doing. So several people lost their jobs, the content quality drops, but the C suite makes money and nobody cares about the “craftsmanship” of the work.
Wait until they find out they can replace management even better
Just an anecdote, but recently, there have been many “crochet” 3D models posted to 3D printing sites. (Many of those are marked as AI-generated, too) Those look nothing like a crochet toy would look like. These models have a yarn-looking “V” pattern applied to every surface of 3D model, but this pattern comes not from crochet, but from hand-knit blankets (as far as I can tell).
I hate those people with a passion. Don’t flood my printables, you idiots!
creating something yourself also feels way more satisfying cause you can see your own progress in those creations
Putting effort in it is what makes it art. You as an artist has decided making this piece is worth your time. ”Art” without effort is just disposable slop.
