I hate how I have to be suspicious of every single picture and drawing I see now and wonder if it was made by AI. There mere act of looking at art itself has been soiled. Even if I never use AI myself and avoid it as much as possible, it’s still done irrevocable damage and made my life worse.
>lol u mad bro
Yes. I am mad. You have succeeded in making me mad. I am confirming that I am mad.
>>
>>7953217
Agreed, it's just sad honestly
>>
What makes you mad? Not knowing if it is AI? AI itself in general? Morals?
>>
>>7953217
Just turn your brain off and enjoy the end result like 99% of people scrolling social media

The future is grim for artists. All those years spent learning and practicing, just for their data to be harvested then used against them as customers flock to pay third worlders charging pennies for AI art instead.

>noo but my SOUL will save me!
This will only be true for a small fraction of artist. The majority will see their labor depreciated until they're living like chinese sweat shop workers. All while corporations continue to rake in record profits.

I know anon, it's sad
I miss what art and internet used to be, I mis 90s and 2000s art, the struggles, the communities, seeing so much incredible art, all created by humans
I highly recommend cara app, I believe it's the last AI free social media
>>
>>7953217
The only way for you to be sharp at detecting AI is if you are slopping yourself. Normies won't really be able to detect since the sloppers mostly just use specifc artists artstyle loras whereas the ones most ppl are familiar with are the basic NovelAI or Pony/Flux-based models
>>
>>7953246
Nah. Harvesting data and proompting is easy. Anyone can do it, so 'those' markets are already saturated with sloppers. What you do beyond twitterbot posting slop though is anyone's guess. If you don't have any idea for use cases with diffusion models that can make you stand out it'll soon be flooded with copycats.

>train models to steal people's artstyles and generate images that would take them days to do (with a decade of training) in mere minutes with zero training
Dystopian af, is there any solution or is this just the new norm? Will there be any point to even grinding like Miurata or is the future just going to be which slopper can train models better?
>>
>>7953246
Yeah commodity art is finished. Only artists that have something to say (that resonates with the masses) will remain.
>>
What are you guys talking about? We're trending to more human connection than ever before. Physical media, more variety in technology and even scaling back to old hardware. A resurgence of the 90s and 2000s is upon us.
>>
>>7953264
It is just the new norm. However, of course it is worth, it; AI is not even close to replacing everything as the CEOs wants you to believe.
>>
another slop thread, rehashing the same boring talking points

I've only recently become interested in art so I consider myself untainted by the spiraling of the online art silo to this point. I think there's a future for artists, but you'll need to distinguish yourself from sloppers by showing the process. You also need to be a personality. Half the reason I like any particular piece of art is because I like the artist. If you're just posting shit without these two things you're only gonna make it if your style is truly impactful. If it's not you might as well cheat and use AI.

>NOO STOP TALKING ABOUT THINGS THAT GIVE ME BAD FEE-FEES, JUST BURY YOUR HEAD IN THE SAND
Stfu, brainless ostriches like you are the reason we're getting trampled over. The type of moron who inadvertently helps the billionaires by trying to convince everyone that everything is fine and we should just ignore everything.
>>
>>7953276
there are zero original thoughts in this thread
you're a parrot repeating shit that's been said to oblivion
just kill yourself and do the world a favor
>>
>>7953273
You've hit the nail on the head. The business of art as a commodity will have artists outmoded by AI, but patronage may thrive as an industry as a reaction. Artists who are able to distinguish themselves will be supported by a bigger and more loyal client base than any other artists had experienced in past epochs where patronage dominated.
>>
As far as I understand, the models everyone uses are released by some corpos because training one takes A LOT of drawings and every time you want to add something you have to retrain it from the scratch.
I think the AI detection tools can also progress, not to mention sloppers cannot into actual sketches and wips.
>>
Perhaps you should be angry at yourself for enjoying the cheap kind of "art" that is frequently generated by the AI bros. What is art? Social media trends and "fan art" of popular characters drawn by people who are only drawing said characters for clout?

You can make an argument that the Christian art from past centuries was just fan art for the same purposes, but there was something else there, something missing from your cheap fast food "art" scene.

>>7953217
i have never been confused by an ai drawing. if i am i go "oh that was ai" and i... move on... how are you dooming this hard

>used to really enjoy drawing, pretty much the only thing that brought some fulfilment into my shitty life even though I'm mediocre as hell and never had much of an artistic vision beyond making more images of my favorite characters exist on the internet
>2023 rolls around, get cursed with advanced knowledge of stable diffusion workflows and prompting, knowledge grows over the years as work exposes me to it on a daily basis
>now every time I bust my ass for several days to finish a single picture I just feel depressed thinking about how anyone could fiddle with some settings and spit out a result in the exact style I want, better than anything I could draw in my life, and indistinguishable from human-made art with minor post-editing
AI has soiled a lot of things. I guess I'm too stubborn or too deep into sunk cost fallacy to quit completely, but this amplifies self-doubt about your shit being completely worthless to a cosmic level. I don't know how other waifufags persevere.

why come these ai doom and gloom threads never show examples thoughbeitly? if ai images are so great and hard to detect why cant you right click, save image as, and upload it to an image board? are you retarded or sumn? instead you upload an anime still, made by humans...
>>
>>7953597
Don't worry, Anon. Making AI images is cucked. Delegating the drawing to a computer is like delegating sex with your wife to a bull.
>>
>>7953668
Jeets don't have wives that's why they're so psychotic.
Most maidenless country on earth. And they're way too ugly for any women of any other ethnicity, even blacks or abbos, to pick them over their own men.

>>7953692
Truly a god forsaken race.

I mean you can just go into any AI thread on any board like /a/ or /h/ or whatever and see what people are posting there. It looks legitimately good. If it didn't look good then artists wouldn't be freaking out like they are. Granted it's still mostly restricted to pinup-style images or familiar kinds of stock poses, nothing super original or complex. But... most artists made the majority of their money from pinups anyway.
>>7953597
Find people who like what you do and appreciate it. Make connections with them. That's what it's really all about in the end.
>>
>>7953217
AI is just another tool. You also could be scepticle about photo references (many ppl still think it's cheating), or scepticle of 3d models, or tracing.

AI can just produce pretty pictures but ppl also still like real artists if they are good. Not to mention how bad AI is at making comics.
>>
>>7953664
Search engine manipulation. Wouldn't it be epic if the art board won't shut up about Ai?
You reply. You lose.
>>
>>7953708
You absolute nigger pick one (1) image you like and post it. Don’t give me the run around. I went and checked and it all looks the same, I never wanted to do anime girl pinups and never will, as far as I’m concerned I’m fine. Kill yourself.
