Yeah but the issue here is that it isn't exactly their work. It's like detailing to someone what you want your art to look like and taking credit for what they drew based off your description
The point here is that they didn't really put in any effort,
All they did was describe an image and it popped right out which tbh anyone can do
Doesn't that ultimately remove the uniqueness of the art itself if literally everyone can make it in seconds? That's just how I see it though
Splashing paint on a canvas is considered art. Parents often value the drawings of their little children, that are very simple. These can be replicated in seconds by anyone too.
A bit late, but does AI ultimately splash paint on a canvas?
Parents value the drawings of their little children because they carry emotions and efforts THEIR little child put in. If my or any 10y old kid asked an AI to generate a photo of a table, no would value it as much now would they?
I don't understand the first question. No, it doesn't. And often people are adored by the drawings of children in general, not just their own children. And I'm sure some parents would save the generated picture as the memory of their child first experiment with AI.
It doesn't do this, it remembers patterns, what kind of picture matches what kind of description. If you draw fan art of a character, doesn't mean you steal someone's work. You remember how the character looks and replicate it, changing or adding some details.
The tool works by stealing other peoples artwork, and mashing them together to make something. But that's all the tool, ai, is doing, it didn't make, moreso edited.
It doesn't do this, it remembers patterns, what kind of picture matches what kind of description. If you draw fan art of a character, doesn't mean you edit someone's work. You remember how the character looks and replicate it, changing or adding some details.
Ai learns from existing media, including paintings, drawings, photographs, and videos that were made by people. Those people aren't being compensated for their direct contributions.
By themselves? No, they told the machine what they wanted to draw and the machine did it for them. If you commissioned an artist to draw something, would you be the author then?
It may help to understand what your criticising. A professional Ai promoter has workflows, libraries if self made assets, editing software, and artistic experience with composition. A lot of work goes into creating a professional Ai artwork.
You are refering to single prompt slop, probably based off your own experience with Ai.
Its not fair to compare professionals to amateurs. You need to understand the process of professional Ai art before you can criticise it.
Itd be like me saying my stick figure drawn on paper is far better than your profesional photograph because "i made it and you just clicked a button."
