Heck you might be right those fingers are weird

[–] fart 18 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

also the text on the shirt, keyboard and overall framing

This comment is so funny to me because the fingers are probably the least messed up of all the mess ups in this image x3

AI art can be so ugly, and I don't mean the style. I mean the uncanny errors. AI art is the true uncanny valley.

I finally played around with it with my young daughter a couple days ago for laughs. Now I actually see the point of it.

Yes it's ugly as hell. But it's the rapid prototyping process of art. You ask it to slap some shit together. Nope, that's awful. That's worse, that's hilariously terrible! There is always something wrong.

It's great for throwing ideas at the wall far faster than a real person could sketch them. Especially if that person can't draw, like me. But the finished product is only ever worthy of a meme, not a gallery.

However an artist could easily use that process to brainstorm some ideas. It's like psychedelics but the computer is taking them for you

Yeah, I had to create a logo for a project, threw the key words into DallE-3, generated 30 drafts and recreated my favorite one with GIMP. I wouldn't have been able todo so without AI

I found it's useful for giving you clues on what to do. I'm still learning art myself and once dumped my unshaded work into one to see what it would do.

Gave me some useful ideas that I didn't even think of on my own. Like the fact that I could totally add creases to the shirt or shade it rather easily

The computer is taking the drugs for us now too? Damn AI is coming for my job now.

[–] ZOSTED 6 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Yeah for this reason I worry about illustrators and concept artists. Those used to be dream jobs, now I'm not so sure they're even jobs anymore.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Realistically they haven't been jobs for awhile. Read up on William Morris.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Illustrator I can't see going anywhere as AI still makes too many mistakes. At least technical illustrations, that is. For something like a paperback cover or low-end kids book AI already has that market covered.

Concept artist is probably toast for sure. Except in specific Industries like automotive where you need a real concept for development.

[–] ZOSTED 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I was thinking illustrator, like those who draw the often semi abstract drawing what go with magazine articles.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

And we know how booming the magazine industry is these days.

[–] ZOSTED 1 points 10 months ago

I think most people see these illustrations online these days

Join Spujb's thread lol.

Oh I wish this were real art

196, this is your reminder that you don’t have to be okay with art generated using non-consensually taken art from uncompensated artists being posted here. i encourage you to check out and support the wonderful work done by similar artists :)

edit: added a second deviantart link bc apparently the google lense search is inundated with ai too. :/ check them out ✨💖

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Honestly I didn't even know it was AI stuff up until someone pointed it out. I'm kinda glad people pointed it out. I just copied it from femcel memes

I endorse this message

Edit: your Google lense image search, results in more AI art being shown :/

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

shoutout based OP.

thanks for the heads up abt the link. given that at least some of the art is human made i’ll leave it up for now. if anyone knows of a better way to find visually similar human artists please let me know.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

What the heck?!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

When I was in tech support I used to say that I did the work for free, but I charged for the time I spent listening to people confidently tell me things that were wrong.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Holy moly we have found today's top post. :3
