My short stories may not be amazing, but at least I wrote them.
I’ve been inspired to do more art that’s just ok because of souless AI
this is actually good
Thank you. Here’s another I did.
These are great pieces, thanks for sharing. I encourage you to make more. Real human made art is a hot commodity!
If art is simply a “commodity” then machines could make it cheaper.
I don’t think art is just a “commodity”. I don’t think it’s value is simply in being traded and sold.
Good point! The word commodity isn’t the best word to describe art, so maybe a better way is to just say that ‘I think that the perceived value is on the rise, because of a human reaction to reject the capitalist’s attempts to transform the collected stolen expressions of human artistic achievements into whatever meaning the wealthy desire without the need to pay those who made the “generated” art possible.’
please excuse my wordiness, I am procrastinating and got lost in this reply accidentally.
I think that is the way to go anyway. Time is a circle, which means after the ai trend hits its peak, people will want genuine art.
This is the time to practice and share with like minded people to hone your skills so you are ready when you needed.
BTW there is a artshare community. Post your stuff there.
heck yes, great space art!
Thank you. All the bright colors and metallics are paints that I made myself.
As someone who is into fountain pens and fountain pen inks… I can definitely respect that.
I feel this. I’m making a shitty web comic, but at least I care.
Comma splice.
Idk imo you can use some ai like how you select a brush or stamps or other assets for background/decor as long as you do the composition and overview to check and edit
Yeah. i absolutely suck at art. I don’t have the imagination, the skills, nor the perseverance to do it.
But using “AI” to do that? It would make me feel even worse because I wouldn’t even make anything
Dude. People are playing solo D&D with goddamn AI.
Fucking depressed the hell out of my night, so I had to scream it into some void.
Of course it would be D&D. Playing something more interesting would require commitment to a perspective.
Paranoia would be more thematically appropriate, of course.
Some expect this to results in a return of the third place. As the internet will get filled up with bots and slop, every movie is heavily written and produced with AI, people will look for something more genuine and go back to just hanging out offline.
This implies people will avoid AI
I think it’s called slop fatigue. After a time, many people get tired of the low quality stuff and look for something better, but the easy to make slop drowns out the good stuff. Of course there will be a part of the audience watching whatever.
Lack of third place is more of a carbrained North America issue than AI slop issue
Hey now, it can be both.
I hope so.
That is, if they stay accessible and affordable for everyone. Would be lovely
Fuuuck. I’m so sorry you had to see that.
There is something especially charming about genuine amateur art.
When you can tell exactly what they intended to depict, but couldn’t quite get there skill-wise adds something to the piece as a whole.
I love when people want to express some idea they had, so much that they’re willing to put themselves out there, even though they know that the final work is not as good as it could be. To say nothing of the separate joy of following an artist and watching their work improve with time.
Sometimes the skill is drawing something that looks low effor but it’s actually complex. Like these pilotredsun animation. Dude actually uses paint and photoshop and he gets some surreal results that are impossible to replicate.
Yeah it’s absolutely pathetic how much slop people are willingly consuming.
Let alone the ridiculous attempts to justify the use of these plagiarism pumps spamming the internet. Or the ones that see themselves as “seizing the means of production” fucking laughable. You aren’t a rebel using Ai, you are just another tool being used by the parasitic owning class.
Any Ai apologist can go ahead and block me.
What blows me away is how much of it is so obviously AI but people seem to just not notice. You do see it called out from time to time, especially on Lemmy, but in the wider Internet it’s much more common to see people just engaging with it.
Can I opposite of block you?
You certainly can follow accounts, and you should. Underutilized little feature.
Edit: Actually, I don’t think you can. My Reddit-brain misled me.
On Lemmy?
Sorry, I thought this was possible, but I actually think that’s wrong. I checked in Jerboa and Voyager, and don’t see it in either.
Maybe if you’re logged into your instance via browser? It’s entirely possible I dreamed that up, or I just assumed it because you can on Reddit.
You on mastodon? I’m really only on here and over there occasionally.
One of the best manga there is, One Punch Man, started as a webcomic with art that probably any random person could draw.
Actually, he started one punch man, in part, to get used to a new drawing tablet. The artist has less dexterity than others in their field, but an intense, nuanced, and impactful understanding of how to panel and focus and weight. They’re terrifyingly seasoned in visual storytelling from the get go, but certainly aren’t as capable as other professionals. But even then, they can take their time to produce an effect that is haunting. A lack of detail is a detail in its own right. While someone could draw their early work, they’d have a difficult time conceiving of it.
Just read the webcomic recently, and my major takeaway was never to take your capacity or lack thereof as anything more than a motivation to improve as a human being interested in participating in society. Which loops back to the post, and seems more pre-meditated than I meant it to be.
Factual tho
