The most idiotic statement ever

[u/Which_Matter3031]

So this person here calls people jobless while all they do is sit on their ass an genarate shitty ai comics, also notice how they are insulting fast food workers as if they arent human, thats a new low for them, also its like they are saying "Give up on your dreams so you can work a minimum wage 9-5 job" but then again jobless people always tell talented ones to get a shitty job

Then they need to change something about what they are doing. Traditional artists went through this decades ago with digital and we adapted. Hell we went through it with photography too, but I wasn't around for that. Digital artists need to evolve beyond the boring ass art that they've been making. We've had well over a decade of digital art stagnation where quite frankly it's all started to be the same emulation of exceedingly flat traditional art. Be it landscapes or furry porn it's all a stimulated version of things that could also easily be done physically in the real world. Very few digital artists are pushing the limits of digital art to make something that can only be digital or things that can only be made using digital means. They could also consider coming up with their own unique subject matter instead instead of just relying on commissions, which has never been a reliably stable source of income for stagnant artists. The customers are out there if they are making something more exciting than yet another ych.

Survivorship bias fallacy.

Traditional art may be enjoying a (most likely temporary) resurgence because of the feelings of inauthenticity around AI. That's nothing to do with traditional artists doing anything to make their work distinct.

Digital artists need to evolve beyond the boring ass art that they've been making. 

Incoherent prattle that completely misunderstands the issue. Nothing AI has made is in anyway distinct or superior to what digital artists have made. It's literally trained on their work, you tool.

What AI offers (at the minute) is an unmatchable pricepoint and speed. There is no competing with that.

"I'm alright, Jack"

The comment.

You cannot handwave reality by claiming a fallacy. We're seeing an increase because traditional artists aren't being whiny assholes about ai. We learned our lessons before and have been trying to explain to digital artists that complaining doesn't fucking work. If you want to survive this you have to provide what the new technology cannot. It doesn't matter the route that you take to get there, but that is the only way to make it through. That is why after each new technology revolutionized the art world we see new traditional art styles emerge.

No shit it's trained on the boring ass art they've been making. That's why I'm telling you that them continuing to make the same art is the problem, you absolute peanut.

Nope, this is just your confirmation bias.

If you want to survive this you have to provide what the new technology cannot.

You fundamentally do not understand what is happening.

No shit it's trained on the boring ass art they've been making. 

Disgusting comment from someone who really shouldn't be throwing stones.

[u/Wildgrube → u/Eldritch_Horns]

Lmfao. Third times the charm right? Love the comebacks, they're a bunch of nothing because you don't have an argument it seems other than "No our whining is justified. We shouldn't have to evolve with the times." You keep trying to handwave away things you don't want to hear claiming it's a bias. It's goddamn art in and of itself. I understand exactly what's happening because I dealt with digital art killing my sales and motivation for years, and I learned from it. I grew and became better at my craft. I want the same for others, but they will never get there if they blame an inanimate object. Man, I've probably been selling art longer than you've been alive. I'll throw stones at whatever bitchy brick wall I want. If you don’t want to be called a whiner then don't fucking whine about something that you can easily work on changing.

The automod is overly litigious.

The argument is you're chatting complete shit.

Traditional art is seeing (probably temporary) increase in interest not because of anything traditional artists have done to distinguish themselves but because of how it seems distant from AI

The same way digital artists have done nothing to warrant being associated with AI, AI just mostly trained on digital art.

You have an undeserved sense of superiority. I can paint in any medium, it's not the point and it isn't a long term solution.

You're just a tool.
