But why laser focus on it being a job when a person can and do work other jobs and still be artists.

​@@dominicesquivel3901 I think it's very simple actually. Let's get one thing straight, artists don't earn a lot, it's just not a lucrative field. The starving artist stereotype is here for a reason. So the majority doesn't do it for the money. But making art as a job has an amazing luxury. Aka you can do it every day. It's time you can spend making art. If you keep it as a hobby and you want to stay healthy and keep a social life, you will be very lucky if you have a few hours a week dedicated to art. Life just gets in the way. So for the most passionate individuals, making it a job is really the only way they can keep making art. That's why people put up with earning very little, starving artists stereotype eh. It's just pure passion at the end of the day. We can apply the same logic to many things. Like why train to become a pro athlete when you can just go to the gym after work? I think laser focus is great, that's how extraordinary people are made. Excuse me for the long ramble haha, but hope this helps!

@@Ten_Thousand_Locusts translation is not just about equating words in another language, it is about interpreting the intent of the source text and conveying it in a way that is accurate and appropriate in another language while going through context quirks and stuff. Imagine how hard conveying the original intent may be between languages of wholly different types... Machine/AI translators don't get that, they overlook little language quirks and translate everything literally without getting the context. And don't get me started on movie dubbing. The art of lip syncing and simultaneously trying to interpret the original meaning is truly something.. Nowadays translators are still hired for translating poems, books and political negotiations but the culture of it has changed quite disruptively. Some people have the nerve to get a translator, translate the text with Google translate, give the translator that and tell them to "clean it up". In most cases translators just completely screw over the Google translated text and translate everything on their own from scratch, just because it'll be way better then whatever the translating AI has come up with. And translators have way less job opportunities now, as some people don't even bother to get a translator - just paste it into Google translate! If the same's happening with the art industry, the industry that even before was looked down upon then it is truly depressing.

The thing is, a lot of things in art creation ARE "unsexy", just like with most hobbies, there's the fun parts, and there's the tedious parts. AI can help us with tedious parts. No one will stop artists from making their own art, but they just have to accept that AI is going to do it better than them. I'm a programmer and the AI breakthroughs are heavily encroaching on my field as well. I know it's only a matter of 5-10 years at most until AI is not just like a naive junior dev, but can replace me, a senior developer. But you can bet that I use the AI to take care of the tedious stuff too. Even after I lose my job, and when the AI's skills make mine look like a joke, I'll still work on projects, I'll just use AI as a tool to help me make what I want.

The thing that bothers me most about ai art is that so many people who previously seemed interested in picking up a brush to express themselves are now seeing a machine making the images of their dreams for them, and just giving up. Novice artists are given a choice between "learning how to make it like everyone has, over years of training and thinking your art sucks before you can fully express yourself" and "cool painting now in 5 seconds". I'm not being elitist here, I'm not saying boohoo I'm on the top and you should bow before me. I'm saying please! Please join me here at the top in 5 years! I want to see what you can come up with!

All that tells me is the developers REALIZED that using non copyright-free work could pose legal and ethical problems but they decided that doing the right thing wasn't as important to them as making their AI make cooler stuff for their own personal satisfaction. The people making this technology KNOW it's dubious. They KNOW it needs real artists' work to make anything that makes others want to use their technology. And they're exploiting this fact without really giving a shit. I think that speaks loudly enough on its own.

This will drown in the comments, but I'm a professional artist and here's my two cents: AI is very impressive, but my main audience, the people who commission me, or like my stuff, are 90% people who are very interested and invested in art. To these people, the art, aswell as the person behind the art are equally important, and so is it to me. It's not just the finished piece, that you glance over on your feed. If I see a great painting, and find out its generated (most of the time I can still tell, but ofc this is subject to change in the future) I lose all interest in it. It doesn't feel special, or impressive, or emotionally significant anymore. To automate something as intimate as human expression, to me, is pointless. Yes, the future is scary, especially if your food and place to sleep depend on it. Artists have always been the section of society people laughed at and belittled. Told that we need to "grow up" and that what we do is not "real work". That the hundreds, thousands of hours of pain, frustration, roadblocks and joy we felt were a pointless, fruitless endevour. All working artists, no matter their style, age, era, genre or heritage are united by one thing: the ideal that you work a job that fulfills you and brings joy to others and yourself. The ideal that no, a job doesnt have to suck. The sheer stubborness to withstand all the pressure and just go on through with it. I still feel like this and will continue my journey, no matter what. Last summer AI put me in a crisis, I thought about studying computer science, but visiting a couple classes I noticed I started doodling out of boredom, just like in Highschool. I noticed that even if I put a different hat on, I am, in my core, an artist, and will always be one, and being something else would be against my nature and lead to an emotional, existential crisis. However, AI art is not where this stops. They are right, this technology is here to stay, but it doesnt stay in one place. It runs, it flies with incomprehensible speed. ChatGPT can code, write articles, and essays. This will not stop here. And if society outsources human labor anyways, Id rather be good at art than good at coding by the time all is automated. And afterall, I draw for myself, and am fortunate enough that others pay me for it. Even if I was the last person on earth, Id draw, and every human being that craves expression will do so too. I dont say this angry, or bewildered, or sad, but confused, because to automate human expression to me seems like a truly pointless endevour.

I still have no idea what I want to do with my life, and watching technology advance so rapidly to the point where creative jobs might get overtaken by AI is scaring me, but one thing will always be the same: I'll keep drawing every day, just for my own sake, because if I stopped drawing I wouldn't feel like myself anymore, and that is something AI cannot do for me.

I also draw and the feeling of putting the ink on paper, stroke by stroke, will never be matched by simply writing down what I want, in a similar way, designing a whole system and fine tuning it is a process of care that is our pride, and while I can enjoy the speedup of generating the code for sections of my ideas, there is still a fundamental input from me in the process, the thought that all of it could be worthless not far from now is quite scary

I don't like how professional artists act like their art makes up the entirety of the database. It's just demonstrably false. My main problem is the vitriol on BOTH sides of this argument. Not everyone using an AI program is a "tech bro" and not every professional artist is a gatekeeping POS. It would be much more helpful if people could LISTEN to each other and try to understand other points of view without all the name calling. It's petty, childish and ultimately pointless.

I might be a strange one here, but I never think AI Art itself is the problem, but rather, a symptom of our true problem. Why would humanity, as a whole, would ever be threatened when machines can make art? Isn't art something that humans a natural urge to do? As a play behaviour? For fun? For taking note of something they see? For communication? What I want to tell you is; Something has truly gone wrong when humans tried to replace this joy of creation with this whole mass-produced thing. Before AI, Art industry are already outsourcing art workload to countries with cheap labours, switching to CGI over costume industry with a strong Union, calling art work "Asset class/Investment" and use them to laundry their money. Art did not have meaning then, and now they are simply replacing underpaid artist with machine. They are just optimizing the production line which was built long ago. We are peeking at something much more terrifying than AI, and I do not know what it is. People keep calling "Capitalism", but I don't know what the word means. Everything I ever have is involved with Capitalism, one way or another. I don't know what a world without Capitalism look like, because does it ever exist? And what is happening to people? Why so few people find joy in the act of creation? Why would they rather to consume a staggering amount of "pretty pictures"? I heard that they have their attention stolen, and they were robbed of their natural ability to appreciate anything for a long time before needing to move on. What happened? When artists call out unethical usage of their work without consent, a group of people responded that by saying, "You deserve to be mistreated and disrespected." What happens to compassion? Had artist were looking down on average people? Had we been hostile to them? What prompt such appalling lack of compassion? This is not just about art. Why are strangers on the internet so eager to hurt people? When someone said they are in pain, countless voice will reply, "It is what you deserve, and we will find great joy in your suffering." It is not about a machine that "learn" how to draw, to sing, to code, this is about what kind of people machine like these will enable.

This. Like, the polished sheen the AI can give obfuscates it, but Sturgeon's law still very much applies; most of the AI art I see getting negative attention is bland portraits or landscapes made to imitate existing artists or a generic photorealistic style. These are probably generated by people without much artistic background or creative ideas, just having fun playing with the tech and making something that looks "nice", which in and of itself is no bad thing but it's no wonder people don't consider it "real art". As someone who's been getting into AI art generating for a while, the interesting stuff I've got comes from using the limitations and particular ways the tech works to do new things, rather than just using it as a shortcut to make what already exists. Like forcing the AI to mix totally different concepts together to form bizarre combinations in ways that a human wouldn't think of, e.g. starting to generate pictures of beetles and then halfway through turning them into Victorian fashion paintings, or anatomical illustrations of chairs, or photographs of women in space suits in the style of Elizabethan dresses holding malformed cats, or wardrobe-shaped cakes with teeth growing out of them, you know, the usual.

AI can play "better chess" than humans do now, after all!

This is certainly a more than rocky situation. I really like the ideas of what AI can do, and I am an artist myself. But it cannot be understated how unethical this can all be. I do think this situation will eventually call fair use into strict scrutiny, and that's as exciting as it is scary. On a lesser note, I have a strange opinion on AI art that I've gotten a lot of flack for. I miss crappy AI art. Like the new stuff is exciting and scary with how close it is to human art, but there's a novelty in obviously computer-generated work that people don't seem to appreciate. "Why would you want a bad drawing? That's not the point of AI art." But it's funny. It's weird. Interesting. There's something so endearing about a blurry mess of an image that vaguely resembles the style of a courtroom drawing, with a just barely recognisable silhouette of an approximation of Goku's hair standing behind what could be a desk. That's a level of abstract art that is hard to find in humans, and harder to replicate. Humans suck at making things in a truly random fashion, but computers are great at it, despite being unable to actually make truly random results. That's cool, and much more fun to me than remaking the Mona Lisa in Walt Disney's artstyle pixel-by-pixel.

So, I used to BUST MY ASS OFF laughing at all these hilariously bad AI pictures, I still have them on DALL-E Telegram bot with the prompts that I requested and they're priceless. I just can't explain what made them so hilarious for me 😂 And it was such a bonding experience with my bf at the time (who shared my humor) to compete who makes a more stupid prompt that results in the most ridiculous picture :) Aaaaahh good times...

It is the weird contradictive path AI is on. Some of the interesting stuff that was showed over the years??? The new models can't make those anymore. Cause by trying to improve accuracy and making the images more "realistic" the models are losing the ability to deviate from the semantics fed to it. Like while say "Anime" used to generate a variety of aesthetics, now it is always the exact same. Which forces one to create even more elaborate prompts to get it to be less generic. OpenAI's image generator actually has to use ChatGPT to artificially modify a user's prompt to stop it from being literal.

That's a really good question! I have thought of that. I have dabbled a bit with making my own Machine Learning Model myself (Not art related), while I did not test what you asked specifically, I'd say it's highly likely it'd get worse with AI generated results as a training input. My reasoning for that being is that it'd be considered "confirmation bias"; the AI generated art that the model would see will only confirm what it already knows about art, not learning anything new, just enforcing old habits, and if there is any art with some weird AI artifacts, like messed up hands, the AI will pretty much say "Maybe I wasn't wrong for drawing more than 5 fingers after all, I'll keep doing it then!".

Instead of creating anything, you're just ordering and consuming. There is no disciplined pursuit, no journey anymore, just asking and receiving. It's disgusting. Even if you insist on calling your squishy hedonistic piggy eyed self an artist-all you are doing is de-valueing the term, dragging something aspirational down to be in reach of the drive through window.

Was there ever for the people who just consumed art? You write from the perspective of an artists, but from the perspective of the common man? Art has always been something for the rich to enjoy. The Sistine chapel wasn't painted because an artist wanted to paint it, it was painted because the Vatican payed for it. When mercantilism and capitalism replaced feudalism the newly rich embraced the art of the feudal lords and took it to new heights. When photos were invented not only did artists abandon realism, but the shift between popular art and high art that had slowly been bubbling thanks to capitalism was exacerbated. It's 2023, art is there to be consumed. If people have heard of you it's because you're a pop artist, and if they haven't it's because you're doing high/modern/postmodern art that will be displayed in a museum but have virtually no impact on the wider society, or because you're doing art for art's sake and nobody else but you sees any value in what you produce. Artists might think they're on a journey, but people for the rest of us, you're just fools there to entertain. And if you fail, not only are there a thousand more vying for our time, but now there's AI as well.

i think AI art is cool and all, but the process of putting prompts into an AI art generator cannot be compared to the process of coming up with an idea for a drawing and putting that idea onto paper (or pixels). its like comparing doing a google search to writing a research paper. AI art's ideal niche, in my opinion, is the procurement of generic images for practical use, like concept art. human input will still be required, as the AI can only put out an approximation of what the human who wrote the prompt had in mind, and an actual artist will probably still have to redraw the concept art with a more distinct and cohesive style while keeping in mind the changes from the AI-generated image that the prompter suggested. AI art cannot and will not replace art as a hobby or skill. typing a prompt into a machine will not replicate the sense of accomplishment that comes with getting a pen stroke *just* right, nor will it be able to recreate the mystery of the artist's intentions behind a peculiar piece.

A painting of a war might make you feel despair, or it could make you feel triumph. A painting of the sky might make you feel lonely, or could fill you with a sense of adventure. Even Hentai is meant to make you feel horny. When a computer makes artwork, it has no intention other than to match key words.

Hell, I started out college as a prospective mathematics major because I felt that being in STEM would grant me some respect from peers, relatives and family. But I finally accepted myself as a student artist and just as I was doing so I found out about all of this AI stuff :(. It really does feel like a reflection of society's broader views on artists and art (+ other creative careers largely). I feel exceptionally disheartened by it, and it feels like just another stupid obstacle, except somehow more dangerous. Perhaps I sound whiny, but I would love a world where artists and creatives are not judged in various ways, and allowed to create for its own sake. I believe we need art to sustain vibrant life. I crave respect for us, the same baseline of respect that is afforded other careers. I actually haven't been able to bring myself to watch this video yet because this topic really does strike a nerve within me (emotionally immature? Perhaps...But we all have flaws, and I just want to be able to sustain a career in this way.). But I am sure it's a brilliant video, and when/if I do get around to it, I'll make sure to really listen to all the information you present.

I've said this once before, but art to me at its core, regardless of the medium, is simply some form of creative expression. A reflection of one's own thoughts and perception of reality unique to an individual. While any image can subjectively evoke emotion, a program cannot emote itself. It is the lowest common denominator of human thought, more reflective of the thoughts of the internet, and likewise skewed by image popularity, commercialism, echo chambers, and as you brought up, the deep web. I can call it a technical achievement, a novel plaything, and probably an effective tool, but not... "art". As I see it.

So to you art is art only if it has a story about the creator attached to it. And you can only attach that story if you can believe it is created by a human. If you one day found a piece of painting you first need to determine who painted it and attach your story before you can consider it art. In other words art is art only if you think it's made by a human. Lol. So nothing outside of human creation can be art. Even nature's beauty cannot be art nor anything in the universe considered beautiful not of human creation according to you. I kind of get that since art and beauty aren't necessarily the same. Art is art because it is an expression of human skill.

Very informative video. To add to it, I also have a huge problem with the sentiment that AI art will somehow help artists who work in the industry (ex. animation, logo design, environment art etc..). Looking at it purely from a business perspective, AI art just gave a really nice excuse for companies to 1) Increrase workload for artists, as now they can do more work much faster. 2) Allow for more layoffs, thus further maximising profits, which leads to my last point 3) Now companies can pay even less to artists, as they are less involved in the process of creation than before. Now I don't think AI is sophisticated enough to be on this level at the moment, however this could be a reality in maybe 5 years max. All in all I think the human element is very important to Art itself, and removing it just feels very wrong in a way I can't really explain.

Okay, I have a question about your last point: "the human element is very important to Art itself". Can you say why? Because it seems to me that art should be judged by its own merits, not how or why it was created (the "death of the author" argument). IMO, the meaning of art arises from the emotions it creates in the person seeing it, not from the intention of the artist.

Art is far more than technique. Art is very subjective. Like Jean Renoir said: when technique is perfected, everything is ugly, unless by genius artists who can transcend technique. Art is a thing that we humans do simply because we want to, and we will always love to do it, whether being paid for it or not. People who say stuff like “let human artists become obsolete and replaced in the name of progress, like horse carriagers after cars came along” really have a shallow perception of art, and wouldn’t really ever hire and pay a lot of money for any artist to do anything for them anyway (I definitely wouldn’t pay anyone for a mere card illustration). Art is not simply a job or product, it’s not a chore! Machines never truly replace what we love and want to do in life, what makes us human, the pleasures of life that make it worthy living. A machine is not gonna keep me from, for example, swimming if i find it fun! This is even truer for art: each person is unique, and we love to develop our own unmistakable style and vision! There is so much detail that goes into a work of art besides a description and broad strokes that one person can feed into an AI program. If I just gave some basic prompt/description for AI art programs, and then did nothing with the resulting art, I would feel deeply ashamed if I said that I actually made this art. It's fun to play with, sure, but it doesn't make me an artist. Maybe AI can be a valid artistic tool, but it will not be like this! Animators use interpolation software to help their work in animation, but they are always constantly paying attention to everything the program does, and course-correcting anything that goes quirky. It's very different from people who just throw animation into an AI software, press render to interpolate, and hope for the best (Noodle's KZfaq channel has a good video on this). There is always an insane amount of nuance and detail that goes into anything, not to mention the insane and infinite diversity of styles and approaches, each one with its own infinite amount of nuances. AI is generic. If you want something to be truly exactly like what you want, you have to do it yourself, polish and rewrite or redraw a lot yourself. AI is just a starting guide at best. And maybe something to eliminate the parts of art that are just a chore. Suppose that we can someday make an AI that is actually sentient and creative like us humans, feels emotion like us, has a unique identity, and so on, as we see in sci-fi. This AI would effectively be an individual person too, and it doesn't replace me any more than any new human being being born replaces me. Each person is unique. Such AI should be granted human rights. AI is a hot topic in sci-fi. Some sci-fi is pessimistic, loves to show stories of AI overtaking out world. I’m much more sympathetic and believer in ideas of harmonious and happy coexistence. Like I said, if AI ever gets to the level of sentience, emotions, uniqueness, and so on, why would it not be considered a human? I firmly believe that what makes us human is our sentience, emotions and uniqueness, it’s not this sack of meat that our bodies are. Anything with those three atributes I mentioned. Point is: Maybe AI will replace humans for many card illustrations, many ads, many drawings in KZfaq’s thumbnails, tapestries, generic stuff like that, which doesn’t need to be truly unique or have a person’s individual and unmistakable vision in the details, it doesn’t have to be special (though it definitely still can be, tapestry hasn’t stopped existing as an art). This has already happened to an extent regarding translators, for example, thanks to Google Translate. But people will never stop wanting to create and make art, regardless if they are being paid or not. Art is not a chore, it's something that we actively enjoy doing. It's fun hard work. Art is part of what makes us human, that's why we'll never stop doing it. Not to mention that art is never just technique. Ultimately, these are the reasons why I feel many comments on this whole topic are often sensationalist scare-mongering. I also recommend episode 43 of the 2000s Astro Boy anime. My mind always goes back to it whenever this scare-mongering happens. Industrialization didn't kill the entire art of tapestry, for example. Or pottery. Photography didn’t kill painting, and it became its own artform eventually. Cinema didn't kill live theater. AI is very vague and generic because you can't make a very fine-tuned work of art just with a text prompt. AI would be like the homogeneization of the MCU, whose films sometimes feel like made by AI, and people are tiring of them. AI can't really create something perfectly from a person's head. It can't read minds. A text prompt can't ever come close to encapsulate all the insane amount of possibilities in art. This is why AI will simply be a tool. A job I can see AI eliminating is in-betweening animator. It is a really tedious process in animation, and top animators generally don't do this entirely for their sequences, lower-level animators will do it. Animators already use AI interpolation software to quicken the animated process anyway nowadays. Some people working with ads, concept art and book illustrations can also lose their jobs to AI, or start earning less. AI would help with these more mundane and uncreative parts of the making art. Or the more utilitarian stuff. Like how industrialization killed a lot of jobs of people making furniture, though the art certainly still exists, and always will. Technique is not everything in art. Film director Jean Renoir said that when technique is perfected, everything is ugly, except by genius artists who can transcend technique. I see his point. We care about the films from the Lumiére Brothers showing normal life, they were a groundbreaking achievement. I can film those same things today, and far more easily, and with far greater image quality, and no one would care. And there will always be people seeking alternatives elsewhere. A major complaint against the MCU, for example, is how generic and corporate it often feels, like these movies are just results of an AI algorythm being asked to regurgitate what's currently popular. People are tiring of this, and specially movie fans will also be looking for more personal art, far cheaper and outside of Hollywood. And even if the future is filled with generic AI movies in the mainstream, there will always be people looking for something different elsewhere. And again, it you want AI to truly fulfill anyone's imagination perfectly, it can't be a one-click button thing, it has to become a tool like CGI is. The possibilites of art from any generic text prompt are infinite, it can't fulfill anyone's exact vision and/or self-expression. Also, digital paintings didn't make oil paintings obsolete. And even in more utilitarian stuff, like furniture, there are still people who make art with them, and money with with them. I feel sad when I see people who don't understand or care about art. They say stuff like "artists, your days are counted, deal with it, don't be luddites, your job isn't different from anyone else's, AI will soon become better than humans, just like what we have seen in the past many times". I also don't like people who believe that AI will someday kill mankind. I'm optimistic, I believe in healthy cooperation. I saw a guy online saying that art is nothing special, just a job and industry like any other, and that machines should replace humans in everything that machines do faster and "better". This person clearly doesn't care or understand art at all. He just sees it as disposable product. The artist as no different than a Walmart employee. He doesn’t the subjectivity and fun that actually is crucial in art, and why we always make it, AI art won't ever be "objectively better", and yet some people treat art as if it was chess or math. Many people can't make a living with art alone, but they still make art as a hobby they like and want to share to the world. Some people online seem to worship technology completely, and would be happy to destroy everything that makes us human in the name of technology. Next time, they will say humanity as a whole needs to be replaced by machines. Some people also say bullshit like "humans learn from other humans, how is that different from AI using works of art", as if AI was remotely like a human. It doesn't have an identity, emotion, self-expression, sentience, it doesn't learn like humans do. So many people seem to be deeply pessimistic and always expect the worst for mankind's future. The "robot apocalypse" is a notion I just don't believe it will ever come true. But many people seem to do, and are always believing it will come soon, and that everyone who disagrees with them will have to admit the mistake. I don't buy it. And they always use the same card of "just wait for the exponentional evolution of this, you lack imagination in thinking that humans are anything special", while forgetting the core aspects that already limit what can be done (no text prompt can describe all details of a work of art, it will always need lots of fine-tuning to get any AI art to look exactly like your visions, AIs can't read minds, that's why it's only a tool). All this panic we see now makes me even more sure that when sci-fi stories depict a future society struggling to accept conscious and sentient robots, prejudiced against those robots, these stories are quite spot-on if AI ever reaches that level. I have always said that if AI ever becomes human-like, it deserves human rights. Also, we can't even come remotely close to solve all possible chess plays, it's inconceivable, an unfathomable number of possibilites. Imagine solving all possibilities for art. We might as well be omniscient and omnipotent gods if we are ever able to do this!

For me the whole draw with making art is about the process creating it. It is inherently satisfying to see your image grow and develop as you work on it. Seeing it go from sketch to finished image. I'ts a bit like building a city in cities skyines or playing through generations of sims famillies. For me removing the proces from the making of art is a bit like removing the fun from games like the sims or cities skylines. Like using an autocomplete button to get to the end instantaneously instead of working toward the desired end goal. I am thouroghly dissapointed that we humans have decided to use technology to do autocomplete on what otherwise is a fun challenge instead of solving actual problems like severe illnesses or to free up more time to use on interesting creative and fun challenges.

While your concern is understandable, that's the main purpose of technology. Technology, from the birth of human race, has been used and developed for convenience purposes. The simplest example is the creation of stone spear for hunting, yes you can punch and kill am animal unarmed, but that might get you killed or wounded, thus a weapon is created to make it more convenient. The development of technology will simply try to make human's basic necessities done easier, which in this case, creating illustration or expressing creativity, and that's a fact. What makes it harmful is due to its existence harming the industry of art, which means putting a lot of people out of jobs, but that's the side effect of its purpose, making non artist easier to make an illustration. Human development as a whole will thrive on the development of technology, with to the examples of yours, as long as some people can find artwork, movie, game, video, and everything else made by AI to be enjoyable, it will be preferable by the majority since not everyone is an artist. And that's where the idea of utopia comes in, a world where you can do and enjoy everything in the most convenient way, while humans explore beyond our world, both in space, and digitally. Of course it'll put some people out of jobs, but sacrifice is needed for development.

The only thing that's impressive about AI art is that humanity has come this far with technology. That's it. Beyond that, it is soulless and empty. It would not exist if it weren't for real people trading their time for the pursuit of creating and crafting. I remember visiting the Van Gogh museum, getting as close to the paintings as I was allowed to, and having to force the tears back into my eye sockets because this 100-something year old painting connected me to a poor man whose driving passion was art. The painting looked alive because I could see the brush strokes that were created by real hands, as if it was painted yesterday. AI art could never.

I'm also concerned the early and intermediate stages of writing, visual arts, music and coding will be made more and more inaccessible as AI gets used by certain people to outperform these groups for cheaper results. Tech bros seem to think these things were inaccessible and AI is the only way they'll catch up, but they were always highly accessible (save for music, due to the cost of tools unless you use sheet music and free sheet music programs maybe), and using AI doesn't teach them the groundwork of these fields. The uneducated users will grow bored of AI once this becomes more apparent they need more hard and soft skills to make it in certain fields, that's why they're so dedicated to making AI even better, not because AI is interesting. It's like that episode of Futurama where a guy in the Scary Door makes an AI to do all his research and the AI ends up getting the awards instead of him. It's a bunch of effort to be lazy and ultimately not be living life yourself. The AI just gives you random stuff, like if you were to commission someone with a prompt. It requires a completely different set of skills. AI is an awesome tool, but some of the loudest people using it are just terrible and only care about "replacing" people or making money quick. They lack the most important thing needed in the fields they want to replace: Care. The lack of care really comes through in the later part of the video about the interview with Emad. He has no care, he just wants to rush things at the expense of others. AI will only get better and more advanced with time, but only someone with actual care will get the best use from it. Sadly, capitalism is built on cold efficiency and most people using and making these AI have no care for this. An "AI utopia" doesn't exist when we still live in a capitalist society. All AI will do is make people need to scrape for jobs that are harder to replace just to get small crappy apartments. Besides, humans like doing things and people like getting rewards for doing things. While a world where people don't need to be _forced_ to do things just to survive is a noble thing to work towards, AI won't do that. Companies won't start paying people more for less hours when they're obsessed with profits. When everyone is competing for a dwindling supply of jobs, companies will be able to offer less in return. If they aren’t fighting for people to get livabale wages for any all jobs they actually _want_ or for basic minimum income, they don't care about a utopia, they care about some sci-fi movie they watched. In the end, the AI isn't the issue and I do enjoy seeing the far less advanced AI pieces that make obvious mistakes, the issue is humans.

Art isn't all about the final result. It's about making it and expressing yourself and learning and enjoying creating and making an image right out of your head. AI art can't do those things because it is the result of an emotionless computer program. Even if AI can make a detailed digital painting, it will never replace the joy of drawing and coloring your own image. Unless AI becomes conscious (in which case it's a person, i guess???) it will never experience making art and its art will be soulless.

"emotion" doesn't seem to be a grounded argument. I see human expression in art, and yes, it includes emotion (and often times artworks instill emotions on the viewer), but emotions are highly subjective. While the machine might not feel anything, it is still able to analyse the datasets and imitate emotional pieces (or straight up recreate them). In my experience, most people who are using image generators have a lack of understanding of art, and so this argument of "soulless" is not taken seriously by them.

If you think of some metric like "what is the number of people who use this image as their computer background?" I will bet that AI art will start to win over real art in the near future, barring some copyright legislation that makes these models illegal. There will probably always be people who pay real artists because they like them as a person, but the vast majority of people just want to see a cool picture.

The best way to combat AI art is knowing how traditional art by humans is made and appreciating how much work it takes to create something. I'm not an artist but I've tried a few creative things before like drawing and editing videos and that was enough for me to understand why artistic work is valuable. It's hard work! To me AI art is worthless because I know its doesn't do any of the work a human does. Unfortunately most people don't appreciate art or know what it takes to be able to create something. Just think of all the memes we have about parents being disappointed that their child wants to go to art school instead of medical school or something similar. Most people think art is not valuable and that's the real problem. Trying to STOP AI art from replacing artist is good but it's equally important to START making people understand why human art is valuable. This video and your channel in general does a good job of accomplishing just that. Artist cannot win this battle alone. Artist must get non artist like me on your side and that can be done by getting more people to appreciate art. But easier said than done right! Art is probably the hardest thing to get people to appreciate, especially good art. Nonetheless this battle must be fought and it must be won. I will always be on the side of human creativity as it is what makes life valuable!

I think underlying that is the belief that “all progress is good” and that humanity progresses in every way in a constant rate. Many believe that in any given area be it medical, politically, artistically so on and so on that the world has only gotten better and the past is always worse. Many people haven’t considered that this just isn’t always the case. This idea isn’t only with the AI art or technological advancement but it is present in politics too (where I first encountered it personally.) To permit oneself to believe that the ends justify the means one must first assume the end is certainly going to be good and so destruction of the present becomes okay since it is assumed that the future will replace it with something better. People fueling AI art, stealing art for their AIs or otherwise contributing to its growth might believe in some deep sense that they are apart of a broader move towards improvement in humanity. The thought that this could be wrong on some level maybe hasn’t occurred to everyone supporting the movement.

Things I’m not sure about anymore as a professional digital artist: should I continue to improve my art skills, if in a year or two all this hard work would be done by the machine? In how many MONTHS will my clients be able to just go to Dall-e instead of going to me with their commissions? Would I be able to feed myself with my art? And if anyone will start using AI instead of drawing by hand, how would we get ANY new art ideas or art styles at all?

It’s not just us artists getting the short end of the stick. Literature artists and teachers also do. ChatGPT can make essays completely by just few prompts. Resulting in distrust towards students as their grade will be questioned. Did they do it or did the machine do it? Also ChatGPT can write whatever short stories by some prompts even if it’s not on par as those who are talented yet. This will just result in the next generation losing incentive to learn and develop their talents. AI is destructive to education and education is the foundation of society and culture. It will be chaos in the end.

What some people don't realize is that Art is every where! Paintings are art. Digital art is art. Books are art. Movies are art. Animated movies are art. Video games are art. Music is art. The architecture of buildings around you is art. Design of vehicles is art. Rooms design are art. The design of packets like chips, chocolate etc. Is art. Advertising is art. Photography is art. The design of clothes are art. There is a lot of what I can call but it will be long list. But you get my point I guess. And ofc. I am not talking about anyone who can draw. Because art is not just being skilled but there is in need to be good, attractive interesting ideas that come from your mind. Artists are a combination of imagination and skill. AI colorful FART can't compete with artists that poured their soul, time to show people what's on their minds. Just keep drawing. And keep designing, keep doing all the art you like, we shouldn't lose hope, we might lose this time but who knows what gonna happen in the future, what if art interest grew, keep practicing and don't let them stop you, after all you should always fight to be better at whatever you enjoy for yourself. Edit. I might have made some grammar mistakes English is not my 1st language.

I hope I don’t upset you by asking this,but I don’t understand how your own personal creative endeavor is at risk. I thought art was about art if that makes any sense. I hate to pessimistic about this but the likely hood of people being able to make a living off of most creative expression has always been slim to none even before AI. Why worry about if your ideas your art can be spun into something that makes you money rather then if you like them and if the people you share it with like them

It's never been more demotivating to be an artist before. Lucky those who made a name for themselves when making art still meant something. For those of us starting just now it's practically impossible to gain an audience in normal ways, even without AI killing the passion to manually create something it was already hard to get views with all the artist oversaturation that emerged over the last decade, now it's become an exceedingly depressing and pointless hobby.

@@RealElevenTimes Nobody creates just for themselves, we create because we want others to see it. The point is to get what we made out there, if nobody cares then there is no motivation to continue and if you don't draw for others to see it you won't put as much effort or work in it. The feedback also gives you more new ideas and a better potential to improve. Some people may be fine with holding their creativity locked away from public eyes as long as they themselves get some passing satisfaction from the mere process, but for most this isn't enough.

Regarding the point about the dangers of those motivated by utopia, I think a good way to bring pause to that efforts is to get them to interrogate themselves on why exactly they want to create utopia. if it's just seen as the right thing to do; completely in a vacuum, then that's going to be rough. but if they are or can be persuaded to see it as an effort to improve the material well being of people at large, then it's possible that they may want a path towards it that minimizes the amount of harm done to people on the way. they may still want to do it and push for it, but if they earnestly want to make the lives of people better than they may search for options that minimize harm and displacement along the way, that can at least slow them down whereas someone motivated purely by selfish reasons can be much harder to reign in.

This is a fantastic video on AI art, the way it works, and the issues surrounding it. It goes into both much more technical and ethical detail than most sources. As someone who has built generative AIs of this type (albeit in an educational setting, on an extremely small scale, and with controlled, open source datasets on projects that have no practical use case) this video perfectly sums up my thoughts on the issue in ways I couldn't.

There should definitely be an opt-in or opt-out option for artists. Also, they should probably disallow artists' names or names in general in the prompts to prevent style stealing.

So, first of all, "opt-out" is unethical. Opt-out preys and makes money on the ignorance of people not knowing that the "opt-out" exists. Opt-in is always the more ethical option. I know you probably weren't considering that in your comment, but i think it's important to address. That said, opt-in is tricky because A) it's incredibly easy to bypass and B) figuring out where the opt-in should *be* is tricky; is it on the site that the image is originally uploaded to, or Is it handled by the image generators themselves? How to you prevent third parties simply re-uploading media to another site where the consent is effectively nullified? I agree that a good solution to this AI Image Generator debacle is explicit consent for use from the artists themselves, but it seems like a pretty broad oversimplification for what's going on. It needs to be easy to do and effective, and with something so complicated that's a really tough target to hit.

@@_B_E Opt-ins can't really fix this, unless it's an opt-in for databases, but the legal system for that is wholly different. The reason is that it's not too difficult to set up another instance of eg. Stable Diffusion. My proposal is something akin to royalties. If a legal person uses AI generated art for commercial purposes, they have to pay a cut to the artist whose creation contributed the most to the process. I believe this is realistic, as the same algorithm calculates both labels(including artists' names) and diffusion.

@@lilemont9302 I typed up an even longer response that elaborates a bit more on my points here, but it seemed a bit much for a KZfaq comment. I can post it if you'd like, but in summary it's basically this: 1) Who would pay the royalty? There's 3 main contenders, the Dataset, the Generator, and the End User. There's a lot of implication behind deciding who's responsible ultimately. 2) If a piece of media is reuploaded by a 3rd party, how do you reliably ensure the correct artist is being attributed? 3) How do you ensure the correct artist is being paid, HOW do you pay them, and how do you prevent people that can pretend to be an original artist from abusing the system? 4) Making them pay royalties is implying they're actually legally responsible for doing so in the first place. That in itself is a pretty heft conclusion that includes a lot of copyright law. Not to mention, if restrictions are put on the Image Generators, how do you prevent the ones that are Open Source from just being forked to bypass those restrictions? Copyright law varies from country to country as well, so it's impossible to solidly and consistently enforce royalties anyways. I fully agree with the idea of AI tools being as ethical and artist friendly as possible and think it's important to be critical of them. There's just a lot more than meets the eye when it comes to enforcing rules for this type of stuff and trying to be as aware as possible of that is beneficial for everyone.

There's still the social factor at play, though. If you only draw for your own sake, great for you. But I feel bad for the truly great artists who wanted to show their creations online to both make people happy and to inspire others aswell but will never be able to have any kind of audience to reach their message amidst the likely future AI content flood that is about to come. Generative AI is the perfect recipe for a total ultimate spam of content that will for once make the Dead Internet Theory become actually real instead of just a conspirancy theory.
