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.
Thank you.
!artshare@lemmy.world is a lovely community I look at a lot where I'm sure it would be appreciated too.
I like this one a lot!
Thank you.

Hell yeah, space
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.
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.
Oh yes you can have an amazing original idea, but lack the skills or the time to make it a timeless art work. A piece of the artist's soul is in there since the first doodle, and it's a privilege to get to peek at it.
We've been doing it a long time (this one's at least 40,000 years old):
It's like a perfect opposite of slop from the garbage dispenser we made to murder truth with.
Like, you can sort of know a person through it, reverse engineer relationships between ideas that existed in the artist's mind, even if it sucks.
The slop is usually blandly pretty and barowue as fuck, and it's way easier to add tits, but...

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.

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.
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.
Lack of third place is more of a carbrained North America issue than AI slop issue

That is, if they stay accessible and affordable for everyone. Would be lovely
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.
I hope so.
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.

this right here is why i love punk. so many punk bands with shitty technique, but damn if they don't tend to leave it all onstage
blink-182 have always been the lousiest performers (minus travis obviously) yet they still sell out arenas because they bring a good time with good laughs. and i dont care they arent "punk enough" inb4 anyone says that

My short stories may not be amazing, but at least I wrote them.
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
I feel this. I'm making a shitty web comic, but at least I care.
would you mind linking me your webcomic? i love webcomics and bet i'd love yours

It needs a lot of context. It happens in the world from !unix_surrealism@lemmy.sdf.org
did you draw page 4 yourself or drop a picture in an ascii art converter because either way that's gorgeous
I used Unreal to make a render, then the converter
thank you! i'll be diving into it either tonight or tomorrow.
Factual tho

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
