This is absolutely ridiculous, frightening and amazing! My biggest question is “the copyright”. Do you know if we can we use this pictures in our videos and thumbnails without any problems of copyright on any social media and advertising?
Seeing how good this thing is, people will eventually starts to advertise their job as an artist with "100% human-made skill and not software/AI generated work"
But business won't care. They want efficiency and productivity. The least amount of resources for the best products. That's business. I fear they might embrace this. What's the next iteration? Moving images? Film? Animation? The only thing that gives me comfort is it's the "Writer" behind the story and images. Ground zero.
@@pr0x1madigital For now. After playing with this all day, I've made some legit REALLY good pieces that I could easily sell to a client and I've seen stuff from other people using MJ that honestly blows my mind. I've seen people making fine art, graphic design, logos, t-shirt designs, etc. and many of them are "actually good." That being said, (1) the AI still needs some human steering to get best results, (2) it will still make some things that are pretty wonky, regardless, and, most importantly, (3) the AI doesn't know the difference between the really good stuff and the really wonky stuff. In that sense, we human artists are still safe. BUT this is still early days. The genie's out of the bottle and, from here, the AI will only get better and better. There's a point in the not-too-distant future where the AI will be able to consistently do what "actually good artists" do without needing so much steering. The better it gets at turning that text into art without needing tweaking, the less clients will need the "middle man" artist. At that point, as @AdvanG said, human artists might start advertising their art with "100% human-made" in the art world's version of "non GMO" but let's be real: if the end quality is the same, 99% of clients won't care. Especially since it might take a human artist at least a couple of hours to create a piece + all the additional time of going back and forth with the client's notes to arrive at a final, but the AI can generate countless variations in minutes and any client notes can be incorporated pretty much instantly. So, yeah, it's not a threat today but tomorrow is coming quicker than a lot of people think. Human artists have the upper hand right now but this is the beginning of that slipping away. Don't let human egocentrism fool you into thinking that "human-made" is going to mean anything to anyone beyond niche collectors and the Luddite holdouts once the AI can do it at least as well AND much faster.
@@notxvexorr4379 It will be hard to identify. A random famous artist will generate his new art using AI and auction it saying he worked really hard to create this piece of art.
For the first time in my life I've actually felt really disempowered by technology. My future career as an artist/illustrator is under threat... Now I know how truck drivers and checkout operators etc feel!
Same here, as a young cartoonist I'm just... Afraid. I'm disabled so I can't do most hard labor jobs, or even stand up for long periods of time, so art has been my life ever since birth! Knowing that something that keeps me alive is being ruined like this is just... Well it's disturbing to say the least, I really REALLY hope that it fails or something bad comes out or blah blah blah, I don't want to lose my dream, I don't want to lose my life
I know how you feel, i have/had the dream of becoming a concept artist, but now I can't see how I can achieve this dream before AI just replace 90% of the artists. There is no way the companies will prefer to pay someone to make a job a machine can do faster, cheaper and probably better.
@@oldinactiveaccount Instead of being hostile to the technology, be hostile to the society that forces people to "make money" to survive. Work should be voluntary and temporary. Human beings should have the means of subsistence provided for by the collective power of society, without any preconditions, then this wouldn't be so scary anymore. You can just do art because you love to, not because you need to for survival.
@@oldinactiveaccount Dude, I think your dream is safer than most other artists, that's because being a cartoonist involves much more than making a cool design or spending hours rendering a scenario, it's much more about being a good critic, knowing how to make humor, and a lot of creativity, I think these things won't be replaced by AI because people won't want to consume something that is the result of "critical thinking" of a machine. I don't think that even traditional artists who paint canvas will suffer that much, who will really be fucked are those who work for big game companies, movies, TV shows and especially freelancers.
The thing is when i look at a piece of art my amusement isnt just about the looks of it its more about the thought process, creativity, vision and the perception of the artist thats what makes a piece of art to me
This will destroy your world then, Because if nobody tells you the art you look at is made by Ai you will still stand there processing what the artists mind was thinking and what his influences where just as if it was a monkey or a 1 year old baby that made a painting. It still is the person writing the commands for the Ai that has to have a vision or an idé of what to create and how. I don´t have all the talent required to be a traditional artist but my imagination and vision is still needed.
@@tritan130 no, because artist's art is only valuable and useful because its made by human regardless of weather or not you are an artist or not, realistic art is still inside art museums even though we have camera its the humans that make art meaningful not machine
With the way AI learns and grows, this “experimental” feature is being used to teach the AI. It gives 4 options that people choose from, so when options don’t get built upon, it learns that it did something wrong and learns
I wonder if its possible through selection bias to inadvertently force the AI to pull to much from a single reference source which could be a pretty serious problem.
@@dustinlopez2751 it’s possible but like the developers will have the ability to tell the AI that no matter how many people choose from the same source at least have 5 other open sources at all times, so that this does not come to pass
Next steps will be AIs generating Websites, even thurther Webshops and then AIs that automatically start webshops and buy and sell things all on their own only by learning about the consuming behaviours of people. The whole AIs topic is the next big thing this decade.
I graduated from art school in 1981, long before Photoshop. I earned a living for many years doing illustrations with traditional media -- mostly airbrush. I transitioned to digital in 1995 and absolutely loved my first version of Photoshop. (3.0!) I added Cinema 4d to my toolbox in 1997, which greatly increased the control I had over my images. I'm still managing multiple deadlines at 70, loving working digitally, and have no plans on retiring. As artist/illustrators, we have no choice but to embrace this amazing technology, add it to our toolbox, and find some way to bring our personal vision to it. If we don't -- those who do will "eat our lunch". I shudder to think of how my career would have gone if I had insisted on remaining an airbrush illustrator.
I find this form of artificial intelligents is extremely helpful but at the same time terrifying for all those jobs that take creativity, think about it. If they explore deeper into this rabbit hole of data, jobs such as architecture and digital art will not be a thing. Its a serial topic and for me it can be a great conversation started!!
This will not replace high art. Yeah, sure it looks good, but it's also missing what makes art interesting. Questions like, what made the artist draw this? How did drawing it feel? What do they want to tell us? All of these questions can be answered the same way: This is the result of what the AI associates with the input. That's it. And that's, while technologically impressive, artistically utterly boring. The only thing this will replace is something like stock video game assets.
@@somedudeok1451 i mean it could be interpreted differently like: what made the artist to give these inputs to the ai to make this? What do they want to tell us by this ai generated image? or...maybe i didn't get your point ( and yes i avoided the second question cause it's pretty subjective and answerable ) Edit: i agree that ai can't replace HIGH level art Yet or maybe never cuz an artwork of a person can greatly reflects his personality and like how his art changes as he is in different points in his life experiencing different things and wanting to convey different things using different instruments with his unique skills,But if an artificial intelligence ever gains consciousness(which maybe is impossible) then this would be a breeze. (sorry for my bad english tho)
There will always be people who will pay real artists to create artwork with their own hands. This will just generate a marketing tag "Non-AI Artwork" or "100% created by human" and therfore a reason for artists to charge more for their work.
Many still don't understand the reality of this problem, this will affect the behaviour of content creation and consumption all around the world. We won't seek knowledge behind each piece of work, this curiosity will eventually dissappear and we will become apathetic towards the things that lies right before our eyes.
yes man it sucks , all of the soulsearching that art represented now is meaningless . i am an artist but my methos is sculpture or rather models so im not that threatened but i despise it
@@teeceedee I'm glad for you! I mean we are actually okay, just Imagine the lack of interest students will have for any creative career in the future!
@@teeceedee Do be threatened. AI can do anything. Training it or teaching it the principles of modelling is very simple. The focus is just on image generation at the moment because it's the clearest and most understandable thing for us to develop... (Or don't and just roll with it, whichever)
I understand what you are saying, and I agree on most of it. But what I'd like to shed a light on, if I may, is that true art, the one that a human being can express, will never truly vanish. There will always be people appreciating it, cultivating it, working with it. So don't despair! Humans will always have human in them, and robots/AI will never be human. It's the nature of things!
@@behooman7749 I like your answer dude! My only advise is to enjoy the ride and not the destination, because my biggest fear is the mentality of the "instant reward" which is something that already exists in our society, but it will get far worse with AI tools just like this one. But I agree, many of us still appreciate cultivating knowledge and I really hope we stay strong and take advantage of all the problems and solutions that technology will provide to us to find answers in the future, cheers mate.
I have been saying AI will be a great artist for over 10 years. Why? Because nothing thinks more outside the box than AI in chess. People who don't know chess think it is unimaginative. That is simply not true. Checkers maybe, not chess.
@@ChessMasterNate Chess is 100% unimaginative, it's literally just theory and if you dont play theory, you lose. You dont have "options" you have 1 correct move and every other move is definitely and objectively a bad move because of theory, being good at chess is the equivalent to being able to recite more numbers of pi than someone else
As a professional graphic designer and digital artist, relying on a life time of experience, (50+ years), this has two sides to it. The results as you might expect, are spectacular, and at the same time these programmes allow those who are not designers/artists to achieve results that even experienced creators would find difficult to create. The need for those of us who have specialised, is totally removed. Since the advent of these programmes I have left the digital world and returned to painting. Thus, sadly, the downside is the unstoppable march of technology over man's creative ability.
And it will get much worse. In the end program can have all sources in the world and infinitely better power than your brain. I always thought that human creativity, art will be replaced as last. Sadly its not the case. In near future we will see ai creating high quality movies, books, art in extremely short period of time.
@@aaronoconnor606 And its closer than people think it is. It will probably take 10 years and we will have technology to replace everything and everyone. It will take much longer to implement everything, but its kinda scary. We are going to live in era of no dreams or hopes, pure depresion in world where we are no longer needed.
@@vinegro4579 don´t worry you will get your chance to express your disagreement in the future😨😅...but i just turn my phone off then you can do nothing.....🤠
RIP to all of the artist out there already struggling to find gigs. I Stan with you. For what its worth. Know that nothing could ever replace your dedication, blood sweat and tears.
Can't imagine the existential crisis they must be having right now. Sad man. A new verification system needs to come in to identify what is AI and what is not.
Image Generation for AI is human equivalent to taking inspiration from real life experiences or other artists. So its still art. Otherwise all the art in the world would be just called fake.
This seems to be the consensus, but I'm skeptical. People still value original artwork, and those who can actually afford to have art commissioned will continue to do so if they care about quality. Take the Lensa example. If there was no Lensa, it's not like people would be hiring professional artists to create anime-style portraits of themselves. Few people could even afford to do that if they wanted to. Instead, they'd be doing what they were before, which was not sharing anime-style pictures of themselves on social media.
As many say, yes. The problem isn't the ai itself. Artists could also take benefit from this and actually create their own reference images, or incredibly speed up the brain storming process. The problem are those people who approach art and of course artists, as mere objects or something irrelevant. If you deprive a person of creativity, the emotions of creating something, what makes him/her different from a machine at this point ?
@@SovermanandVioboy of course it won't 100% be me I'm just typing commands in for the AI to do it. The point is like I already said to create something from your mind when you don't have the artistic talent to put in on paper. I want to create my own posters to put up in my house, i may not have made it with my own hands but it did come from my imagination. So it is useful
As a fellow concerned citizen I too am disheartened by this ghoulish news that great craftsman all throughout the globe will be made impotent and useless by this cold yet efficient machine.

Think of a form of music that offends you. Think of some so called art that offends you and stand back and wonder about how it was made and by whom. Quality is not cheap nor easy.
"Please don't steal it. I only recommend it for inspiration. Imagine how you would feel if somebody just simply copies your command and creates the exact same thing." The irony is killing me
Ahahahah it's totally true. By the way, stealing what? a bunch of words? If your talent is based on that you're gonna have many problems in your career
As an artist and a programmer, here is my large pile of thoughts about this: I have mixed feelings about this as many of you also probably do. It will certainly disrupt the commercial art industry and my heart goes out to the freelancers that will be affected by this. Perhaps sites like Pinterest should also be considering how these algorithms can disrupt mood-boards etc. But if you first use the tool, you will realize that many of the colors, textures and design elements that the algorithms add to your images are selected from the data it is trained on without much of your own intention or context. The algorithms by default start with literal random noise and builds the image from there. You can of course add your own images and refine the prompt details, making your results more and more specific to get to the final render you want. What do we call this process? To get something decent from this, you still need intention, decent taste, a discerning eye, perhaps some comedic or poetic intuition as well when coming up with the prompts. (You will also find that as you add more and more details to your prompts, the results may start to break down. Maybe this is something that will improve over time, or maybe I myself am not skilled enough at prompt generation to avoid these pitfalls) You create these images based on data made from the hard work of countless artists before. IP and legal stuff will certainly be an interesting question with these algorithms…. Would I say that images created by this tool were created by me? Not personally. I would say that I came up with the prompt idea, and guided the AI tool to arrive at a result that I wanted. It feels somewhat collaborative. It does certainly bother me when people take raw images from these tools and say “look what I made!”. The AI fills in too many design decisions for me to ever feel comfortable saying that I made those choices, unless I happened to make the prompt specific enough to do so. Some other artists have made those design choices already, and ideally these algorithms would give them some credit. My point is, good design is purposeful and design decisions should be made with actual purpose/intention, contextualized by the needs of your project. Examples: this character needs five feathers on their wing because it is symbolic for something, or this new smartphone needs to be in this shape for this very specific usability reason, etc. The random search of these algorithms may get lucky and arrive at an image that will exactly satisfy your needs, especially if your needs are not very specific. For an actual commercial project like a game, movie, product design etc., more often many of the images produced by this tool are not good enough for a final render. This tool is good for brainstorming ideas, providing bottomless inspiration for design elements, and also can be a great source of material for digitally inclined creatives. I have seen artists generate several of these images and take elements from each, Photoshopping elements of them together into a purposeful and meaningful digital collage piece of sorts. 3D artists can use it to make textures for their games or renders. It significantly lowers the barrier to creation, and will no doubt disrupt the industry. I even have a friend who uses it in their DnD group to make backgrounds for their games. The value of a digital image will be reassessed under these conditions; perhaps more emphasis will be placed on the poetry or ideas behind these synthetic images. Not to mention that these AI cannot create a physical painting. They cannot create a physical piece of pottery made by hand and burned in a kiln for three days of of the coast of some distant island in Japan. When a robot makes its own conscious decision to travel to some far off land to paint the sunset off the shore and comes back with masterpiece that embodies its own experience with love, nostalgia, and heartbreak, maybe that will be the day that artists of all mediums should be afraid. Until then, these algorithms are just tools Perhaps there will also be value on art created without the use of AI, 100% human organic wholesale kind of thing. I would not be surprised if there was a backlash to using AI tools in some sectors, especially as we are saturated with more and more of these synthetic images. Maybe there will also be emphasis on the process people use to get their results, for example those painters that record videos of themselves painting are a work of art in and of themselves. Further disruptive technologies powered by AI are certain to come; videos, music etc can also be generated by AI. But again, the algorithms still require a human to come up with the idea (driven by a creative impulse, design need, etc), refine the result through several iterations, doctor the results (perhaps some post processing, not to mention fixing the terrifying faces these early algorithms create). It is not replacing humans quite yet. The real danger lies in how the commercial industry will use this stuff. We already live in a world where many “creative” decisions are made simply to get the most money, and not necessarily to create the most original or thought provoking pieces of work. I am worried that these algorithms will exacerbate problems we are seeing in an already stilted media industry, where pop culture already feels rehashed and derivative. It sounds incredibly boring to live in a world where synthetic images are created from datasets of rehashed synthetic images. But that is also why these algorithms cannot replace the human aspect. These algorithms can recombine data in ways that can even be considered creative by some definitions, but they simply cannot incorporate new lived experience. The works made by them are by definition derivative. Additionally, the images you are allowed to create will be limited by the prompts you are allowed to use, dictated by the companies that own the tools. If you have used DALLE-2 or Midjourney, you will realize that they are both especially strict to prevent legal issues on their end. In that sense, when you are using these algorithms, your creativity is still pretty bounded. Humans will by virtue of living will always have new data and experiences available to them, and that is where the freshest, rawest material comes from in my opinion. That “you couldn’t make this stuff up” moment when someone is telling a story. Don’t stay inside looking at a screen all day, live life to the fullest (and perhaps I should take my own advice, ha). Go outside, fall in love with something or someone, then lose it all and do it again. Live your life, acquire new experiences, write about them, make creative projects that reflect what you have learned. Don’t compare yourself to other humans or AI algorithms. Authentic experiences are by definition irreplacable.
“If this is not crazy…I don’t know what is.” I feel wonderfully crazy just watching these generative AI examples and following along. Great mind blow!!
I along with current profession(which might have a chance to be taken over by AI)......we all should work on developing another profession along with the main one.
As an artist I've always thought about a device that could use my brain waves to draw more precisely the ideas in my head. This could eventually be it, a dream come true... or a nightmare that will cost me my livelihood and my purpouse in life.
@That guy Everybody can run, yet only a few are able to compete at the olympics. The quickdraw shitters will be filtered out from the people who actually take their time to understand and learn the AI properly.
@That guy Well said! The cultivation of the soul requires the trial of reaching for something, or in the least, the experience of doing something. To not cultivate oneself through such a process will lead to sadness. The lesson for many may be to indulge only to find themselves without meaning. I love to write things down and draw by hand, play music on instruments, and do gymnastic-like motions outside. Each of those things incorporates my senses which accumulate in my body in a way that allows me to love all those around me and existence itself.
@@TehBananaBread and those who claim the true artists will still stand out, I support you. But what about all the people who have spent their lives getting skilled up and are perhaps average, for employable artists. The thing is, even for the cream, your average employer can't tell the difference between good and bad art, so back to the reality that 40 years of training and experience lose their value when the machine enters. I've been through the same experience a few years back as a translator. The machine knocked out the bottom of the market and that brought the cream flopping down on the wreckage, with nothing below to support it. It also made entry extremely difficult. I was sent texts which had been machine translated, and my job was 'just' to edit them, at half price. When artists are under pressure from competition with machines, employers will exploit it. Trouble is with machine texts it was nearly impossible to puzzle out what the text was actually about and it required much more mental effort than if I had just translated it myself. I am still a better translator than the best AI but, the employer doesn't care, and just leverages machine translation to oppress human translators. Apply this lesson learned in translation to the world of illustration. There is no way the machine will not impact the lives of illustrators and animators and many many many people will lose the livelihood they have taken a lifetime to build, because acquiring the level of rendering the machine can do requires many years, and there are so many levels of doing this work, and the majority of skilled people are not at the 'top'. So we will just starve. Judging from the comments here no one cares.

I agree that this will increase the value of handmade, like the steam driven loom increased the value of hand wovens, but it also put many many weavers out of a living and they smashed the steam looms in an attempt to save themselves from becoming factory slaves. And if you take a closer look at the 'hand' made art world, really only about 0.1% of these ever make a living. Photography killed the portrait industry, video killed the radio star on and on it goes. AI will kill the commercial artist. so the top 1% will survive... .but how do they get to be the top 1% without years of practice lower down ? To those personally affected and to those who will be broken by this, the least we can do is let them speak out and grieve. Trying to silence them is just such fascist, macho nonsense.
18:20 - "(ref to copy command) Please don't steal it. I only recommend it for inspiration. Imagine how you would feel if somebody just simply copies your command and creates the exact same thing."

@@theobrown123 everyone is twisting what he meant by that quote. Every artist "steals" by copying a style and eventually evolving it into their own style. All artists are inspired by somebody else's work, but they don't plagiarize and call it their own.
As an artist this is beautiful. My ideas & thoughts manifested almost instantly. But nothing will ever beat the satisfaction from taking a week to finish a painting you work hard on.
@{𝒯𝒽𝑒 𝒮𝒾𝓁𝓋𝑒𝓇 𝑀𝑜𝑜𝓃} It seems scary now, but eventually people will just have to adapt, and probably collaborate with AI. The truth is, the art that the AI makes is only based on artwork that already exists, and is generated via pattern recognition, people however, can create new concepts, shapes, patterns. I looked forward to using something similar, and using it for reference-building based on inputs that inspire me as an individual.
But this is a whole problem, you can pay let's say 60$/hour for 40 hours for a total of 2400$ for a painting, + a week of waiting for a little bit better painting, or you could instead use AI to generate the thing almost for free for a minute of waittime
I am scared that normal people find this more valuable than a real artist's work. There will be no point anymore in creativity if a machine does that for us. Current generation might still retain that sense of fulfillment, but I'm worried about the next ones.
A bit scary seeing this happen so fast. I used think "hm I guess in the future robots will make art and music" been weird though, after NFTs I've finally realized the value in being a traditional artist.
What do you think why the world is collapsing right now? Well, it's because of AI - we are in a period where 90% of jobs won't be suitable for people anymore.
I am stunned that at the 18:38 or so mark, he actually says "do not steal it... imagine how you would feel if someone stole your command" when these AIs were trained precisely by stealing other artists' original, copyrighted work. The nerve!!
@@negativghostrdr people can still make art the way they want, whether that is painting, photography, music, sculptures and so on. People with less talent and or time can use this. Once upon a time, the only way to take a photo was to make it using salt prints, then later albumen paper. These days everyone can take a far more realistic, and typically more visually appealing photo with their cell phones. Artists used to have to buy canvas and paints, and have a place to store it all, now you can get a tablet and do it digitally. Music is the same thing, back in Mozart's days, buying an instrument was prohibitively expensive, now anyone can use a computer, and add whatever midi-device they want to interface (or simply plot in notes on a pad or with a keyboard). To each his own. If some people get pleasure from generating art by typing in descriptions, or it helps them make that album cover they couldn't afford to hire an artist to do because they know their music will likely never get more than a few hundred listeners on Spotify, good on them. If they get successful, they will likely hire artists for cover art, musicians to perform their music rather than using virtual instruments etc.
Before I knew how it was done, I saw an Instagram account full of mind blowing art work and felt like I had a long way to go if I ever want my work to be discovered. Then I found out that all the images were created by IA. I can’t stop myself from loving the vibrant images, yet, I don’t admire the “creator” of these images the way I did before.
How so? It’s still an extension of the person creativity. Most artist are too attached to their work. So they never make a living with it. Because part of them is in. It’s great for concept art and. As an animator it cost tons of money to even get drafts created and the time it takes can be inconvenient to some projects. It’s advancement in technology. Innovation in traditional art. The same concept that “ everyone “ is an artist. It’s no different than abstract art on a canvas . Times are evolving in innovation. The traditional artist is poor. Starving because of old outdated models. Most artist hate this concept. But a style is like a genre in music. It’s generalized. Art is deep connection. It’s not always the traditional paintings. That’s the beginning of art. It’s deep. It’s a perspective. Many cry because of it which is why most artist starve. They don’t innovate. The landscape of the world is shifting digital. Technology advances is happening whether artist hop on board are not. But it’s happening. So as an artist be a pioneer. Most artist are just that. An artist and that’s not even the highest achievement in creativity. Artist are becoming obsolete. Artist need to evolve from traditional formats to stay of value to advancement in society. True Art pushes humanity. I don’t call myself an artist. A creative. But sadly artist must create value for the world and not self appreciation.
@@theblackmoth1111 I agree with most of your comments and as a photoshop artist, I realise that many painters wouldn’t consider my work art either. However, writing down one’s imagination in a few simple words is simply not as impressive to me. It’s like comparing a delicious microwave meal to an average home cooked meal. I’d still give the cook who prepared and added all the ingredients for the dish more respect. The effort put into learning and creating art from scratch means more to me personally, which is why I respect a capable painter more than a photoshop artist like myself, let alone an AI “artist”.
@vyhozshu odinyana I’ve often come across images that are described IA/photoshop art. I’d love to see a before and after just to see how much the creator has done himself to take it to the next level and give credit where credit is due. To answer your question, we live in a world where pretty much everyone knows the difference between photography and a painting. We all accept and admire both art forms for what it is without ever comparing or competing between the two. AI, on the other hand, is still a very new and unfamiliar concept to many, which is why there are no clear categories within the different digital art forms and that’s the problem.
@@SibilaDelphos that’s pretty obvious. Like it or not it’s a thing. What happened to everyone is a creative. Styles are universal. That’s the sad truth. Art is subjective. No different that as a writer informing an animator how to design a character with references. Many artist is threaten by it. Why it’s a thing? It’s literally free and you can take ownership of it. Your view is limited. Open your perspective. It’s an extension of the artist if the artist use it as inspiration for their own art. Art is creating. Even if it’s by a “machine”. A machine creates things. Sometimes at a higher level than the actual artist who must go through different processes. Even if it’s better people want conveniency. There is 3D modeling software with already established characters that you can tweak into your own experiences or movements. Making a starry night painting of legos isn’t art either huh? That’s not art either huh? Only physically painting is? To each it’s own. I am on the fence about it. But true artist continue and adapt with it. Not cry about it’s not “art”. Many technologies will advance art for art sake. But what A.I can’t do is created the same imagery into scenery. So the artist is still valuable. But the artist must detach from its work if they want to make a living doing it. It has to be useful for others to. Not just an expression for the artist. You may not like it. Neither do I but on a larger scope. You still have to be creative at the core. Even if it’s “ typing a few words “ it’s a actualized thought. People aren’t buying local artist art. They whether buy it from department stores. That’s what the artist must realize. The craft will never fade out. It’s people finding new ways to go about their creative projects. It can cost $ to revise a character or even how a scene would look. Now you can generate references with just a few words? A game changer. Utilize it more than you criticize it because it’s a thing now.
As many others have said here, I'm and arts student who first saw how good AI had become a few months ago, and ever since then I have lost all hope and desire to draw or paint. It's just painful to realize that everything that matters to me has just become a few clickable options, rendering me completely useless in an already difficult career. I feel empty and hopeless, and I don't know how I'm going to deal with the next year of my degree.
This is just another vehicle for expression. A true artist doesn’t feel threatened they feel inspired. Assert your style and display your mind, no matter the canvas.
@@Met9171 Working in the art field is difficult because there are lots of very talented artists and the demand is limited. And this tech is not going to work for us just like automated trucks won't work for truckers, they will take away their jobs in the future.
It can be a good tool if you are a seasoned artist, I guess? but honestly, put your self in the shoes of some teenager that just started learning art and want to push it as a career, what motivation to learn foundations do you have? none. you are better off working at a call center, it probably pays as well as an art job, and "expression" is not good enough reason to even become an artist, art is already pretty much dead honestly, is already pretty decadent with more hoops and little "tools" then there are artists in the market, if you want to even compete in this field you need to know at least 10 different softwares, be from a first world country, know C# and Python and spam social media to make 30$ dollars an hour, and now, if the competition couldn't get any worse, you have Ai, and more people are gonna flood the market, the demand is gonna grow thinner and thinner, and though luck if you can't adapt to this new standard.
The content here never fails to impress! The detailed breakdowns, clear comparisons, and exceptional sound design and storytelling are incredibly valuable. Big thanks for the insightful and well-crafted material!
And here I was thinking that automation / AI is a threat to just traditional job roles, and the safest place would be those that are creators. Thanks for blowing my mind
@@chillysanders4415 There are even AI’s that can write code. They’re not good enough to replace software developers yet, but it’s only a matter of time.
This technology is incredible...but at the same time I feel bad for concept artists. I'm sure many studios will simply utilize this as a quick cost effective option vs hiring artists on their projects.
My friend's video game company is already saving a lot of money with this. Even if they need a concept artist, they start with this to speed up the process. They basically give the artist an AI made concept and just ask for it to be refined a bit.
you are thinking too short term. it's not just concept artists but the entire ideas of academia, study and entertainment, start to finish will be out of the hands of humans, and intellectual property will become a completely redundant concept. Medicine, research, history, technology, movies will be made, video games, virtual environments, cures for things, everything will all be researched and designed by algorithms. The only question will be how hard we as people fight to keep that technology open or closed. Right now, we're losing that battle and it will enslave us.
Being on that Discord server is truly a surreal feeling. Watching insane works of art (if you can call it that) being created by people literally every second, everything from a Cyberpunk version of Walter white to a photorealistic picture of a zombie Buzz Lightyear to pictures of Soviet space ships flying in Earth's orbit.
I’m not worried. If anything, as someone who’s worked in both digital and fine art, people still want hand created originals. I have seen the things my son has showed me with ai art and it’s so cool. I think it’s inspiring to come up with some really unique ideas to create from. A catalyst.
As a residential designer, I feel it's only a matter of time before AI takes over my job and designs houses for builders and home buyers. As the population increases and job tasks are being taken over by AI...either humans will become obsolete or adapt to make income in other ways. We'll have to see what the future holds.
I agree, i mean imagine you say modern house grayish colors, purple sofa lots of light in living room etc, you can click redo 100 times in 1 hour and get something you really really like. It will also be able to follow all the modern building best practices and be as detailed as you wish... This will happen for sure, for any design, websites, books anything really.
That’s what they’re trying to do, eventually we will be on a universal credit, because AI will have taken just about every job, leaving most population without income. Sad times
Something new also creates new possibilities, if Artist AI or just any other AI dosent creat new jobs for people then lets say people gradually become jobless that will also bring down the purchasing power or consumption of things too hence a company making movies out of AI will not have audience to watch it cause the average consumer who is job less will be in search of food and not entertainment
Honestly, its the satisfaction that I am able to create the artwork that pushes me. Making art through a.i. robs you of that feeling so you may have awesome looking art, but you'll inevitably feel empty inside.
Even if it isn’t great it still scares me that we are possibly even years away from this surpassing human made art. The technological singularity seems inevitable and in the very near future.
'Please don't steal it...imagine how you would feel if someone simply copies you're command and creates the exact same thing' Uh, my guy, that's exactly what real artists are saying. What are we dooooing?
The thing is even if you copy someones string of commands you will not get the same result as the original generated picture. Because this it what the AI does, Generates pictures, By random even if you use the same commands. If you use the same commands 5 times in a row none of those 5 end results will look the same.
@@MarLin67 if you have the same seed it will give the same product. If you search for examples you will see that based on a certain image it will give the same result. it's shit
The irony really is something. Artists have been saying that for years. And now some noob tech bro thinks making a prompt is as exhausting as dedicating years to hone your art and get stollen lol
As a freelance illustrator I honestly feel my industry is very threatened. I don't see why a client with a vague idea should come to me and ask for a character design, a cover or a study, if in 5 min they can have it from such an AI to such an optimal rendering that to the untrained eye it looks 'authentic'. In my opinion it will take work away from many in the industry, with the only exceptions of those who already have a big name and will continue to have work. As we move forward, however, more and more young people will not find jobs because they will not have the opportunity to build their 'name' and only a few, already fewer than they are now, will be able to live off art alone...
Very true. Same thing happened to translators, nobody thought a machine could be any good at translating text. Now it is and starting in the space is impossible because there is no low level work. Either you are better than ai, or no one will pay for your services. Even if you are better, most people are ok with "good enough" translation. And the transition happened really fast, like 5-10 years. If I was an aspiring artist I would reconsider my career choice ASAP.
Happened to the photography with the invention of digital.. I'm In the Property Photography industry which is now a less than minimum wage job with a couple of company's controlling The market.
Art should belong to originators. This has turned up at the right time IMHO. What is the value of artefacts that are so ubiquitous and every millennial is a special artist? The old Greek tragedies are valuable because there are few of them. And every "artist" and "illustrator" and "home producer" are making works that are pretty similar. When was the last timer you heard a song that was fresh? I think this will separate the real artists from the massive cesspit of capable but samey garbage career artists that are only offering same same same same. Want to surpass this tech? Do something fresh.
I think what artist can provide is adjustments and add their own flair from AI generated artwork to make the consumer 100% happy. Saves you alot of time drawing from scratch as well and gets the client exactly what they want when AI can't.
This is like the perfect tool for artists who are stuck in art block or artists who can't find the right reference pictures. But it could be a huge blow to our careers. I feel there is gonna be a huge rise in new "artists". The kind of people who will get huge followings for their talent as artists, when really they're lying about actually drawing/painting any of their works themselves. The art thieves and fakes we're already having huge problems dealing with before AI art.
@@shredd5705 yea. Besides, AI won’t stop at just art of imagery. Imagine AI learning how to write stories, or make music. It just sounds super scary to me.
Well it has the memory and talent of the worlds greatest artist of course it’s winning. language is the only limitation like how we can’t describe a color.
why tf do u think AI will replace doctors. You have a really bad understanding of AI then, service workers is also something late in the list of AI replacing.
@@primekrunkergamer188 doctors will be definitely replaced by AI. Much sooner than nurses. You can train an AI to do diagnostics but no one wants to be cared by robots.
I’ve been full-time faculty teaching Visual Communication (Multimedia) for 20 years. Tools come and go. Look at the features of Photoshop compared to 10 years ago. A musician can use an extension in MIDI to make their guitar or keyboard sound like an orchestra. I tell all my students to not think of themselves as photographers, or “artists” in the sense of using a particular medium. Think of themselves as creators that use the tools available to manifest their vision. In the right hands, these will be great tools to tell compelling stories. Also, to call it “intelligent” is a stretch. It is a tool. A fast one. The artist is the one providing the prompts, tweaking it, getting just what they want to tell the emotional story. Based on the prompts I’ve seen, it will expand the visual vocabulary of a generation of creators. George Martin (the 5th Beatle) was just as responsible for the sound of the Beatles as the fab 4. Did he play the guitar? No. Did he write the songs? No. Did he take what the musicians created and take it to another level? Yes. Creating is often a team sport. The computer is always a part of the team.
Making something clear here; it's not the technology that artists are fighting back against, but the ethics of which these AI image generations work- they steal art from artists online and include it in their data bases, teach the AI with it, and it is all without any proper consent and compensation. They don't even know that their art has been used until someone with a keen eye notices that the style "just so happens to look silimar to so- and-so's style" and tag them in it. It's just not right, and there doesn't seem to be anything that artists can do to prevent their own art being included in the data sets used to train these AI's in the first place. To use what Sam said in his video about AI, there shouldn't even be an opt-out system at all- there should be an opt-in system. Even if some artists are okay with their art being used to train AI, it should be a mutually beneficial* and consensual thing.
@Zach AI is dangerous, If we dont have many data or data that will destroy us then AI is our tool, they cant think or invent dangerous things, but we do have many many dangerous data and inventions that easily selfdestroy humanity
as a growing digital artist, my dreams are crushed. when I'm older and considered a professional, this A.I would be a hundred times better and I don't see why people would need to commission art that takes days to make when anyone will be able to make whatever they want in 2 minutes with no experience.
these videos come out and everyone panics like I used too but if digital art is something serious about then at very least within your life time wont be automated. For a very long time now most major company's in all fields of art have being utilizing AI and automation but this was never to replace artists the goal almost always being to speed up the workflow or production with the assistance of AI. even without that fact artists are one most unlikely careers be fully automated statistically speaking from study's.
to me what was always fascinating about art, was the level of understanding of perspective and observation mixed with a wild imagination. the ability to see the world through a different lens, creating truly unique pieces, allowing a glimpse through someone else's view.... this is 6 descriptive words in a row. good job.
Traditional art will have increased value once this get some momentum, digital artist will have some hard time, but they will eventually find a way. As i believe you can copy artistic flair, styles from what is already available, but creative thinking will still be required to manifest your imaginations.
I'm a highschool student planning to pursue art in college. Not to seem narrow-minded here, but i do fear that my plans of becoming a professional artist won't work out. I've read a lot of different opinions about ai art and I can't really believe those people who say: "Don't worry, ai art won't ever be able to replace artists. People will still invest in hand-drawn pictures, because many would still want to receive art that is unique to that said artists style." Don't get me wrong, i do agree with that statement, but there are already a few cases where ai programmers stole the style of a paticular artist and used it to create their own ai generated images representing that exact artist's art style. Of course, this is how ai generated art is created in the first place - by feeding a machine artworks that other people drew after years and years of practice. Why should people pay thousands of dollars to commission an artist with a unique style when they can just create their own images in that exact same style? Theres no law that prevents art theft (see the samdoesarts drama) the way it works in the music industry. Artist already have it difficult enough to make a living, all ai art does is point a big middlefinger in their faces. Of course right now ai images look pretty and impressive, honestly i cant help loving those simply beautiful images. Ai art lacks specificness though - you cant really adjust the outcome the way you could if you drew the images yourself - at least not yet. If we've already come this far, who knows what the future will hold: many more artists will have to switch to ai art, simply because everyone else will as well. I dont think a newcommer will have any luck in the art industry, especiallly when ai art got to the point where its difficult to tell apart from hand-drawn images. "Art is moving in a different direction" is what one comment below said, but i feel like the aspects that are unique to art - that the picture has to be drawn first to exist after years of dedication and practice - will perish. Of course people can still pursue art as a hobby, also in a professional way if they want to, but the art industry will most likely change to the more efficient and less time-consuming ai art, which will still need creative people to generate and evolve them. Although i do understand this change, i can't say im looking forward to it. Theres something about robots creating art that does not sit right with me. It feels inhumane and unreal. Why do we have to programm robots to replace artists? Why does everything have to be more efficient and mechanical? At least the pictures are pretty, i guess. I would love to hear your opinion on ai art. Let's have a discussion :D
@Helio I understand your point, but i dont agree with ur argumentation. Of course there are many people who use similiar art styles. A lot of people who like a certain style try to copy or recreate them in their own drawings. That being said, theres a difference between implementing them in your own art (via drawing) and outright copying them through ai art. A persons unique style is very difficult to draw in that exact same way, whereas ai literally uses those pictures and outright copies those certain aspects. I believe theres a big difference between those two cases, hand-drawn images can never be an exact replica of a certain style - you would need the same person to achieve that, all human beings are different - whereas a robot literally copies other people`s hard work, often without their consent.
I like ur view - i feel pretty much the same. Seeing all this amazing ai created art makes you feel discouraged. But they lack in passion and hard work and i hope people are still seeing the worth of a hand-drawn picture and how unique it is to have a creative mind to create art by yourself. All the best in college, show the ai a big middlefinger and keep doing what your passion is!
I agree that this is going to really affect artists as more and more people are going to enjoy making their own art very easily using AI. It is always great to be able to hang something oneself has made up upon ones wall.
I think it will never fully takeover because ai will never be able to transfer emotions into art like humans can. Ai art will probably used for businesses (like for logos) because it’s cheaper than hiring a graphic designer. But I don’t think it will ever fully takeover art in museums.
Judging from many articles and forums, the speed of which the sentiment towards AI generated art has gone from "lol this is goofy, it looks drunk" to "AI is going to replace truck drivers but there'll still be a place for people in the creative industry" to "This is theft of work of all artists and should be banned" is astonishing, whether or not this is an existential threat has gone from pie in the sky Black-Mirror talk to reality in what feels like overnight. The future is going to be both great and terrifying, I look forward to where these all go.
Yes, and Stable Diffusion is another AI like Midjourney that is going to be open source. The pictures generated from the beta are even more wild, as now nudity or using famous people's faces is allowed. It's going to be crazy.
Its more funny that we care about stuff like AI and so, but the things which are a real existential threat for example the imperialism/capitalism, next to the warhungry wannabe warlords from the west and "Putin"...
Perspective from an Artist: The feelings are mixed. It is first of all utterly fascinating. I can tell you most of the results are good to amazing. This A.I. has the concept of aesthetics of a human mind really understood. It does bring art out. Amateur artists will not have the quality of designs as the A.I. can bring out. Then of course comes also the infinite quantity. As an artist, you need to hone your skills for years and even decades and usually one is very good at one thing. and good at few things. the A.I. can be good at everything. of course, the details are not perfect from the A.I. but they usually do not matter and even if, they look fit. it does make the job of an artist kind of redundant and soon companies and non-artists will lose their respect toward the human artist. a la "i can do that, too, within 20 seconds and one-click what you need a whole day or even a week. that is nothing special." I do hear the comment from people in art it is about the human and the process. well, that is a way to romanticize it from which I am not a fan. In the end, the results matter, because on average an artist and the process aren´t known anyway. the only positive thing you can have from this A.I. from an artist's perspective is, to test your ideas. But then you get into an identity crisis and start wondering if your personal imagination is even valid enough to be put down on paper with the brush. I can personally say. If you do not enjoy your own results just for them being yours and the process behind it, then it will feel just tragic. like a really bad joke. I also believe this A.I came too early into being. decades and centuries too early. Because this is the age where people can from anywhere and at any time have the tools to be creative and find the world of creative mind freedom. but this A.I. is stealing the future ahead so to say.
I recall when people saw TV's they said theatres and radio will no longer be a thing. I recall when people saw microwaves, they said traditional cooking and using ovens will no longer be a thing. People used to think elevators are unsafe/dangerous without an elevator operator. What I've learned from our growing technology is that nothing is truly ever replaced, especially if the former function has a heavy footprint in our species as a whole. Even obsolete tech like retro games, VHS players, etc all have garnered a sense of uniqueness to them, giving them their distinct identity. I feel AI generated image (whilst very impressive) is simply a tool to help add (or even inspire) new artists. I already use AI to generate random human faces to (then) practice my photoshop skills on, without fear of using someone else's actual identity. I imagine an inventor, an architect, or even someone needing some general concept art to be able to utilized AI generated images to bring their thoughts and ideas into a visible tangible medium. With any new advancement in technology; It's important to not get lost in solely relying on the tech for one thing. AI generated images will have their place, but they won't fully replace that aspect of human artwork.
@@salahworx6963 but it doesn't discredit his claim that AI generated images and human artwork can coexist at the same time. People will still buy artistic and artisanal pieces from artists and artisans even when there is a more cost effective and accessible competitor. Demand and curiosity will always lead to innovation and AI generated images have more utility than just being an "artist with dirt poor rates". For example, bystanders at a scene of a crime can describe facial features of a suspect to an algorithm and create an accurate representation, near instantaneously, and allows for easy fine tuning of details of the portrait to create an precise image of an artist far better than a sketch artist. Another example would be for creating realistic images of missing persons that they do not have pictures of, parents and guardians could feed the AI portraits and pictures of the missing person as well as images of the clothes they wore to present an accurate image of what they looked like before they went missing, it can even go so far as replacing the background for the area they were last sighted in for better chances. In short, AI image generators are advancements in technology and can be used as effective tools that can be applied to many fields such as medicine, architecture, criminology, etc. Labelling a tool that can benefit everyone as evil or of poor taste just because it serves as a good competitor for a select people's profession is absurd. Innovation will always create competition due to it reducing the amount of labor and being more accessible to people compared to the alternatives, and treating it as Armageddon is not only a slippery slope fallacy, but also extremely fucking stupid.
@@salahworx6963 Glad to see you're open to having discussions that counter (or temper) your concerns. 🙃 I'm an artist myself (graphic designer by trade), and whilst I understand the concern fellow artists may have, I don't think the reaction is the right way to handle it, given the situation. Lynus clears up and further explains a lot of points that I am trying to make. AI generated images isn't going to fully replace human artists. If you/others are concerned (understandably so), then I advocate that rather than thinking how much bad it'll do to your field; Think more how you can overcome or adapt with the advances we're seeing. It's why I see it as a tool to grow my skills, rather than something that's going to snuff out my artist work or creativity as a whole. We're humans; We've always adapted and grown as things progressed. It's easy to focus solely on the issue/concerns, but (without a solution) you're only progressively digging a deeper hole, without planning for a way out.
@@OwlskiTV i don’t think ai art will replace human art solely bc of the reason that ai art has 0 meaning and story behind it and that it lacks the soul that a individual persons work has
My honest opinion on this is that in the near future we will face less and less handmade art which gonna make it so rare to obtain and those who will keep possessing those skills and the ability to do handmade art will be very rewarded due to their authenticity. so every new thing bring new opportunity
Considering humanity has been anticipating biological androids that act and feel just like humanity (the ultimate form of creation) for almost a century it shouldn't be that surprising that nothing is safe from being recreated and surpassed by technology
we can still be creative retouching this creations and making them our own, literally the same thing happened when google images made image references available for everyone on the internet, this is just a step further into our creative minds
As a very young artist, I find this whole situation to be kind of disappointing. Growing up art has been the only thing that I've really enjoyed doing and have hoped to find a career path in. However, with all the new AI developments, it's sort of scary (and very frustrating) to know that soon anyone will be able to effortlessly create art in seconds. While I should be excited to live in a more technologically advanced world, I'm really only disappointed because of it. I just feel like amazing artistic talent will mean nothing in just a few years, and art in general won't have any value anymore. This is only my opinion and I know that everyone has different perspectives on the matter, so please don't get frustrated if you disagree :) (EDIT): Reading everyone's replies has been very interesting! It's been fun to read the thoughts and opinions of different people. I know a lot of people highly disagree because AI developments mean that everyone will have the ability to create masterpieces without lifting a finger, but if you feel inclined to respond please take into consideration where I'm coming from. I don't comment very often and to be quite honest have very little experience receiving criticism and critique online, so please take that into consideration before replying negatively as I've seen some people have. To all the people who have responded respectfully with comments either agreeing or not, thank you!! Please don't take my comment too seriously, this is just my opinion
I think people will always want art created by actual artists though because it's unique to that person - the way people will pay thousands for an original but you can buy a print for $5. Prints never stopped originals being worth lots!! While all the AI images are cool, they do have an AI feel to them if that makes sense?? Or for example, I drew a map last year that no AI could ever reproduce in a million years because so many aspects of it are unique to me personally and illustrate different aspects of Middle Earth. There is a unique imprint artists have, and a _purpose,_ that machines cannot recreate :) So don't feel disheartened, because being an artist is about your unique mark and personality - machine art does not have that same unique mark and personality!! :)
I agree with both of you here however to give another perspective there will be a time in the future where the ai would have mastered a great portion of visual representations down to the details. but as complexities become foundational then the ideas themselves would need to be the differentiator. In other words it will only be peoples minds that become the limitation. Even in this beta stage I see people telling the ai to make a cute dog. It can do it no problem. The magic happens when you include unique details that convey a theme or otherwise may have not been represented before. Today I did futuristic Japanese temples in space, dark purple and blue tones, in the style of old Japanese art , bright lights, 2 alien dragon statues on each side, hyperrealistic, --q 2 --ar 16:9. The result is honestly unworldly yet also what I imagined in my head to a degree. This almost feels like dreams. The human component of making the art will always exist tho since even if the AI becomes 10x better it wont necessarily know exactly what you want it to make in what way, but it can definitely inspire artists.
@@Vexarax Million years is very relative :) Eventually, it will be creating millions of renders a second. Or rendering whole environments live as your brain will be feeding it inputs in real-time as well. It will be crazy, different. If we are not in a simulation, we sure will be creating our own. Good luck!
@@mirusvet hah well I just don't know many people who would pay thousands of dollars for an AI printout? But at the small gallery my mum supplies, people pay thousands of dollars for paintings from artists who aren't famous by any means, and mum's small sculptures fetch between $1500 - $3000 and are often sold before the exhibition even starts, just from the photos! So I honestly think it comes down to that human touch in the art world unless someone is specifically looking for AI artwork. But why would you pay for something you can do yourself with a few clicks of a button? Whereas you know it would take you months or even years of practice to try to create the art professional artists create, and even then it won't have their unique touch. I think if you asked someone who was genuinely into buying art they'd be pretty shocked by the idea of paying for something that anyone can do with a few clicks in an AI program, no matter how good that art looks - the art world is quite a bit more "snobby" than that, haha :) Edit: and the map (the type of art I do) "creates itself" as I work, experimenting with different lines and forms until it looks like how it needs to "feel" - many artists work this way. They have to take their mind away from the process, it's like a meditation almost. Part of the joy would be taken completely out of the creation process if art was done solely using AI (and the same effect could not be achieved) I should clarify I speak as someone who has sold my own art in the past though I wouldn't say I'm a professional artist as I'm working in other areas mostly. But I've been drawing all my life, and have also worked with AI programs for concept art. The process in the AI program isn't anywhere near as rewarding for me, but can be useful in certain scenarios such as for video backgrounds and to illustrate certain ideas quickly (which is what I'm doing in the video I'm working on now) ^_^
@@WestCoast4L1f3 While I agree it's amazing creating images using AI it's a different process and part of what appeals to humans about art is the human aspect - the effort and attention and time and talent it took to reach that final product. If you can do it using clicks and by typing words in, even though the image is totally unique, a lot of the power is removed from the art for _others_ in comparison to the care and attention taken with artwork created with human hands. There may be a market for AI art at some point, but when anyone can do it easily a lot of the magic is taken away. Whereas when you look at a piece of art and know there's no way you could have done that, I think that's really what draws you in? Especially when the person has also managed to convey something important to you or speak to you in some way through the art they spent all that time to create. However AI art can definitely be massively beneficial in certain circumstances. For example I have aphantasia, so it could potentially be beneficial for me to create images which are totally unique using AI, then paint or draw them by hand just from looking at them. A sculptor could do the same. For example, the picture you described sounds like it would be awesome to try to paint by hand and you could then even sell the final painting because you haven't breached anyone's copyright - the original image was yours and now you've added a human touch and talent and time to make it even more unique :D So AI programs can definitely be beneficial in that sense and in many other ways too I'm sure. Imo it _compliments_ the true creative process but cannot replace it, as people won't ever want to spend money on something they can easily do themselves! That's just my opinion though :)
@@froztbytes bro, there is a ducking pay wall! and the balls to say artist have hard time lerning. Art was not about having money, but now oh boy, enjoy a world were its pay to win, or wose: pay to think.
@@froztbytes if you are an artist and you use these AIs then you are shooting yourself into the foot. these AIs crawl the internet for images to use in their meshups and guess whose images are filling these databanks? i have seen pieces of watermarks in the results. once the plan to make big bucks with this stuff sets off, those artists willingly or unwillingly filling it's databanks with their sweat and tears will not see a cent.
Lots of great comments. For me, the defining point / question is - If we relate/ feel more connected with an ai or human. some people prefer a out of this world/ hedonistic kind of art. Whilst some others stilll prefer the raw, imperfect side of Human. I believe in art that relates and connect with another human. I'm an Illustrator / Artist/ Director myself, and I still hone traditional skills and personal expressions to connect inspire people from within.
Artist for 60 years here. I have done a few things with this and it is truly amazing if you can't easily depict something. IT HAS ITS PLACE, but is not the end all and be all.
The beauty in art is making it, taking the time and effort to create something that has meaning to you. Ai art does not by any means take anything away because it will not bring me the peace of mind I get from actually creating it. The ai art in it's own right is beautiful but it will never replace the true sense of accomplishment I feel when I create something from my own.
@@winnerswritethestory3370 the original commenter never said abt other people viewing it, they said abt the sense accomplishment they felt when they created the art by themselves. In that regard, ur comment makes no sense
"The beauty in art is making it, taking the time and effort to create something that has meaning to you" With that logic photography couldn't be considered an art.
For anyone feeling depressed over this: Art is a process, just like science. It's unique to each one of us, and making mistakes means you can improve. Perfection is boring, aim to be better, seek discomfort. A.I its not our enemy, we should learn from it as we learn from each other. Artists can make any drawing, but not the same drawing Art is our soul, our essence and our imagination. It is infinite until you limit it
That’s nice but it’s like wanting to own a newspaper company or bookstore. Sure, there’s something genuine about a nice black and white hot off the press newspaper or freshly bound novel. But unless you’re rich or are married to someone who is rich, you won’t make a living and will only allow life to beat you to a pulp. What good is it to come up with the best painting you ever have when a 5 year old or 75 year old who couldn’t care less about art can come up with something more detailed and colorful in a shorter period of time with several strokes on a keyboard?
That's the thing, I just don't feel anything when I look at these AI generated images. Because they weren't created with love, or any emotion really. Da Vinci poured years of his life into his works, as a lot of great artists do... Something generated within seconds just doesn't carry the same value to me. I mean a painters sweat can be within their canvas, that'll never be said for these images.
not true. AI will soon imitate all the human imperfections 1:1. plus artists will be secretly using AI without anyone knowing. this is a horrible time for humanity.
Imagine you and artificial intelligence battling for you to get a job, you find new jobs but the ai kept finding ways to be better at you of that job, any job conceivable. Artificial intelligence is like that one kid in roleplay where you fight him with something and he always says "oh, I have anti [that something] armour", but now that kid is on steroids
@@francescoalexgiacalone878 History suggests otherwise. The people displaced by technological and social upheavals are never taken care of. They're left to sink or swim and if they can't the upper classes cull them.
Can we just talk about how cool this video is? This man has smooth editing, a captivating rhythm to what he's showcasing, and also a really nice voice. A very well-made video :D
yes he's a slick presenter and a thoroughly likeable guy. One day AI will be creating youtube videos and put all the influencers out of business, so he knows the clock is ticking.
i honestly think this will become a tool for artists instead of a replacement, imagine having the AI make a baseline painting and then having an artist refine it, customize it, and improve it. As an artist im super excited for this technology
i mean you can most definitely do that, i have seen some people on the internet make interesting things with the help of AI but we all know most people are gonna use this as a lazy way to cash grab, i have already ran into accounts online generating images from AI and trying to sell them as prints and or proclaim that they made those pictures
@@pwnomega4562 yeah but look at it this way. Imagine a client or a company asks you to make something very specifically. AIs like this will probably get close, but they will never nail every single detail, they will only be a baseline because they lack actual consistency. it will take you less time to draw and paint it on your own as a skilled artist than to keep iterating the AI until it has what you want, specially since every iteration has to be manually reviewed. its just not efficient for professional workflow
@@remus4283 thing is, with so many artists in the world, it is impossible for another artist to not do a better job than an AI. we saw the same thing with textures in videogames. Before textures had to be done by hand in Photoshop, now, almost everything can be procedurally generated and then edited to refine it. if you just leave the computer to make the work for you, something everyone can do, you are no longer unique or special, so the companies would rather hire someone who can make what the AI makes better.
I'm studying art in school right now and this has just made me question why I'm spending so much money learning a skill that a computer can generate for a client for free and a thousand times faster than I can.
A local big business owner mentioned he pays big commissions to graphic artists who can produce the concept images for his adverts and product labels. He does not care how the images are generated he just wants them done. Thats the mindset. He told me this verbatim. "Oh I pay my Best artist well and he's fast and talented! He uses this art software called AI... and it's the best art I have seen!" Oh? This prompted me to explain what AI art actually is to him... and his response? Oh i don't care how it's done I just want it done. The production mindset cares not for your years of practice and artistic discipline or talent.
But that's how the world works. Just like how you wouldn't care that the brewery that makes your favourite beer fired most of their works after they automatize their process - as long as the taste & price remains similar. Sure, we can talk about the meaning of the artwork which is absent in the AI works. But frankly, 95% of the folks who aren't so into art wouldn't care - as long as the "taste" and price remains comparable or even better. Do not forget - AI work has won art competition, which mean that someone good with the software can potentially generate artwork that far surpasses average artists.
@@cnaizhen 100% agree. I'm an artist but not by trade. I'm a Software engineer who dabbles in traditional art practices for fun not profit. BUT HAVE made money with art before. As such... I DO feel a little sadness for those who do make a living by the way of the brush. I like to think There will always be a niche market somewhere for a person who can produce art the good ole analogue organic way. But who knows?? ... Also I cant help but get the looming sense of dread that this occurrence were discussing - (AI taking the art away form humans) or even the perfect Beer being created by a digital algorithm opposed to a garage brewer with a passion for hops. I see this all as a microcosm of what is pending. ALL of our humanly professions.. Coders, Debuggers, builders, engineers, even comedians... ETC will inevitably will be digitally replaced. For a human to remain "production relevant" they would need to evolve and improve inorganically-- but what happens to those who resist? I guess Ultron said it best... " Ask Noah "
@@RoboGoby it's great that you are a software engineer because I have a question: In my uninformed mind, I'm thinking that the machine learning that the AI bots use requires some form of seed artworks to generate new art. An analogy of my understanding is that the AI bots can improve on car manufacturing based on existing cars, but unable to invent an airplane - is this the right understanding? I'm just thinking that there will still be a small demand for human art no matter what, but if human art dies off to be replaced by AI art mostly, the overall development of art will plateau. And on your concerns, I fully agree that it is very valid. It already started with the advent of technology and AI automation will escalate the progress at a much more rapid rate. We of this generation will be forced to adapt, like it or not, some of our livelihoods will get affected. From the macro point of view though, the world will still run. Countries cannot afford to have their people replaced by AI fully because that's bad for the economy. There will be a breakpoint that needs to be found. Edit: Technically, if everyone's needs can be taken care of by AI, doesn't that mean that 95% of the population can live as happy farm animals who will not need to work. While this sounds really bad the way I put it, it is kinda close to the state of utopia since people will be stress free with their needs met.
@@cnaizhen you are right. It needs a Seed but not because it can not generate its own imagery more that it simply needs some baseline properties to adhere to. The possibilities are "infinite" for lack of a better word regarding what it can generate. A baseline image would be required to funnel its variables down to requested specifications. When left to its own devices it can generate imagery that may make no sense to us. We innately unconsciously will categorize imagery based on visual queues but may come up empty handed with out providing a base reference. The AI literally has to "Dumb down" its output results in some cases to generate an image that our minds will relate to. Michio kaku once said it would be no different than teaching calculus to an Ant. there are things that The AI can show us visually but we simply cant make sense of them based on our reality. AI not limited to lived experiences for its refence pool. We have natural instinctive attractions towards symmetry and colors based on our innate program/drive to procreate, nurture, conquer, eat, ETC. the AI does not operate off of any of this despite having all of this information at its disposal. So for artistic reference its up to us to provide these and from there it can generate something simplified to our liking.
I don’t know how to exactly describe my feeling for this one. But if I was to be precise, I feel like if this bot entered a contest with professionals it’ll score top5 constantly. And this is seriously something that graphic designers of all have to worry about, even power point manages to make simple designs. Now imagine that and crank it up hundred times, it’s not pleasant but if you don’t find a way to use it for your advantage you’ll end up being irrelevant.
Not entirely. There will be a new profession of people that specialise in using these types of bots to get consistent styles to the customer's (contractor's) demands
I think the process of learning artistic skill, creativity, and especially tuning in to inspiration is incredibly meaningful. This is a fascinating tool but I'm afraid our technology is eroding meaning. Perhaps I am too pessimistic.
I believe meaning can be derived from any experience or process. The human mind will continue to be inventive, creative and curious. Photography did not cause artists from painting. It lead to reinvention of art.
@@RobLanderos I hope you are right! I suppose the creativity and the idea still reside in the human mind. I appreciate your positive attitude, I can get pessimistic about technology.
Ultimately AI like Dall-e and Midjourney only serve as a conduit for our ideas, without us feeding any info to the system it's just like any tool in the drawer waiting to be used to create something.
I was once in the boat that AI couldn't replace humans when it came to creativity... I feel I've been proven wrong, and now it's only a matter on time where you give an AI a plot idea and it writes an entire script or novel.
I feel genuinely threatened by it. This stuff is taking a job that should be reserved for only the human mind. I think any form of arts (and I use “art” as broadly as possible, including music and philosophy) should be entirely human. The most dangerous and repetitive jobs should be automated. Like working at the bottom of the ocean or factory work. But art is something inherently human.
@@therealspeedwagon1451 I feel the same. I studied illustration and I want to cry. I always liked technology. This is the first time I heavily dislike it, because I feel threatened by it. I have my whole life ahead of me. What am I going to work as 10-15 years from now. Because this will get so much better. I'm close to tears. It's as if I just lost my future.
AI's are incredible. They are also built by the exploitation of every artist that has come before, having never would have existed if it were not for existing art. AI is not only ingesting the images of artists, it is also ingesting what prompts people use to create art and learning from what is most popular. Prompting doesn't make you an artist simply using another tool. It makes you a blip of static in an ocean of white noise. What this holds for the future is hard to say but I would guess that Syndrome from the Incredibles had it pegged - "When everyone's super, no one will be."
What’s funny is that, even when I look at all of these amazing generated images, I still find staring at the sun when only it’s lights shine through a gateway of clouds in my sky way more beautiful. The real thing is surprisingly more incredible to look at. I actually hurt my eyes that day because I could not look away.
@@victerrios6509 No, I don't think so. Because what the ai lack is communication. Sure it can put put 4 detailed pictures at once. But the chances of you getting exactly what you want isn't 100%. With real artist it's a working process fixing the rights and wrongs till you get the perfect picture. Today I typed a dragon made of sapphire roaring and surrounded by lightning...it came no where close. In fact it merged the 2, so I believe you're safe my friend.
As scary as it is I can see a very bright future with this AI and a very grim future with this AI. I can see many of this type of ai being used for inspiration for movies, art, and create things we can't imagine that we will soon see in all types of media. But I also see big companies instead of paying a studio or person or artist, they will just pay these AI companies to make something for them and not even use actaul artist. This decade is gonna be interesting for the art community...
crazy to think that THIS DECADE is going to be interesting for the art community. I think I was born at just the right time to see mankind flourish or flounder.
AI will replace almost 50% of works from some areas around the world, specially in first world countries. So whats going to happen to those people who will lose their jobs?
As someone who isn't pursuing art, I might not be able to speak properly on this topic. However, I'd be more wowed if a normal person actually made it instead of an A.I. since it's very boring and lazy if an A.I. did it. When I say boring and lazy, I don't mean to say that A.I. art lacks in detail or something is missing because I do think what was shown in the video looks really nice. I mean to say that it's boring because it's created with no real effort. Something that makes art good is that a lot of time and effort was put into actually creating the piece. No matter how genuine the A.I. may be programmed, it can never truly be the same in comparison to the amount of time and effort a normal person actual puts to create art. You gain nothing but a pretty image. So while the A.I. may be "more efficient", in this context it just ends up diminishing in value because of this. A.I. can't truly replace artists unless people try to use A.I. in that way.
un Lola Run, a title of a movie that never left my brain, with all respect to the movie story and artwork creativity, I don't remember the content because I had a bad accident head trauma 1 year after the movie release, but I still remember Run Lola Run and that's what I call ART!!!!!!!Run Lola Run As second real time experience, Russian Ark movie that made me travel through time while I was sitting in Cinema Village in NEW YORK City, "I don't do drugs" and that Russian Ark dragged me me to another dimension, the feeling of being in that time of history!!!!!!!!!!just me. AS 3rd, My eyesight shivered looking at Picaso Paintings in the MET, felt something unique that couldn't be described in words, but none the less I can say, I was able to cross the 3D dimension of existence and see the Beauty of Picasso Artwork expressions in shapes and colors, again, unique moment of ART appreciation no more no less. I haven't seen, AND WILL NEVER SEE enough beauty by the CREATURE in colors, shapes AND momentum melted with time as the 4th dimension in within LIKE ONE BREATH AT THE TIME OF APPRECIATION, As far as know I am the Greatest critic of my own view of appreciation of art, I will never discuss the GREATEST ARTWORK OF THE CREATURE TO GIVE ME THE CHANCE TO EXPRESS MY OPINION IN THE ROAM OF ART.
I being an Artist myself absolutly agree with your analyse § And on top of that it is unethical because art music and expression is our human inheritance and Expression is not some kind of computer inhibited AI bling bling who does it all based on some mathematics formulas based on zeros and ones. That is not real art .
@@TheSunseeker007 It does it all based on some mathematics formulae based on weights and biases. Wait I forgot that's how the AI does it too, not just the human brain, OML anyway yeah you literally cannot escape the mathematics, it is omnipresent *succumb to maths*
That all changes when you die and the things you created are all you leave behind. This is why artists are getting really worried. That, and senseless corporations pumping it out for WHATEVER THE HELL they use the money for
I am an artist, and I have been "collaborating" with AI for some time now. As the technology has developed, at an exponential pace, I have been blown away! I was an early adopter using AI as both inspiration and an extension of my creative work. Now I wonder why bother. I am going to stick with 3D art for now, but it is only a matter of time before the machines with 3D printing will eclipse human 3D art...
I was just thinking that a more advanced version of this will eventually take over all digital creations commercially. The future might be to just pay artists to train the AI. For now, stuff that has to be materialized in the real world seems to be the safest.
Freelancers who make a life out of comissions will be in a lot of trouble if people stop asking for their work. This is insane, this is not a tool to improve art, this is a tool to replace artist! And graphic designers are in trouble too! This video just proves that anyone without any kind of experience can make a fine piece of art in a couple of seconds without effort.
Imagine when hardware achieves the processing power to create videos from descriptions. Theoretically, we could create entire movies with a simple plot summary. Or even further than that, from a simple phrase spoken, it can present spatial graphics (akin to holograms, but realistic) that visualize what you are speaking about in real time. Like when Morpheus was explaining the matrix to Neo.
@@markmd9 just like how the title of this video says “end of an artists career”. This very well maybe the case. But also, there will be brand new ways to make content-in-demand that we can’t even fathom today. For instance, if you went back to 1922 and showed someone Pokémon Go, they would start crying from bewilderment. So you can imagine in 2122, what would make us cry from bewilderment?

@@jigglyboo8787 yep he said he used midjourney when asked, I think it s a great thing he won, it s a statement, an acknowledging, like many times happened in history of art He did 900 iterations and some little editing, took 80 hours, the third ranked in the cmpetition took just 15 hours it s not anymore about technique, we got past technique a long time ago
I get that sentiment but I have to disagree. I have been messing around with Midjourney for about a month now and I can say certain skills definitely carry over. Yes you can get amazing results as a novice but there is definitely a difference in quality between people who are just messing around and people who know what they are doing. I believe in the future the focus will be way more on storytelling, a thing we humans are still much better at than AI.
It's definitely a whole new beast. The best visual artists of the future may very well be people who are gifted in wordplay, capable of writing incredibly complex word prompts. It's both interesting and scary. Interesting if you are one of these people good with words, scary if you're a pure visual artist who's not good at explaining your vision other than drawing it yourself. The question is, can this replace old-fashioned, hand drawn art? And more importantly, won't this dilute the worth of artworks in general? We're already submerged with great images, this is going to increase that ten-fold. What then? Will art still have any value? Won't people simply create their own to put on their wall or use in their projects? That's what worries me the most personally. As a photographer and a filmmaker, I admire great artists who worked thousands of hours to create great art. I'm scared we might become irrelevant in the next century or so.
@@Moctop Yes, and I said it in my comment, but right now the average Joe can't produce great artwork by themselves. What if they could? That's what I mean. Sorry if it was confusing. I'm not the best with words as you can see, so maybe that's why I find that worrying. 🤣
@@misterwhyte Yea..democratization of art. It does allow for realization of ideas...I'm sure many people have great ideas but nowhere near the skills to do anything about it...great for most people, not so great for many artists in that sense. However it's a great tool for artists too..they can brainstorm with the AI and just polish up the result, spending like 1/10 of the time it used to take. Eventually that would lead to a higher expectation in output rates and lower prices of course..so yea..it's a mixed bag.
@@Moctop That's true, I can see how it could help some artists polish their vision or get new ideas from the AI and run with it themselves. Personally, I'd suggest anyone who works in visual art to start learning these tools ASAP. A solid head start could make all the difference in a few years when this becomes more prominent. I've been toying with it for an hour now and it's far from being as easy to use as you could think at first glance.
It's unpredictable what's going to happen in the future and scary too. Honestly, I don't know what will happen. But one this seems to be sure, true old fashioned art will become rare, and hence, more valued. Just as handcrafted luxury goods have a league of it's own, so will true art.
18:30 "Imagine how you would feel if somebody copies your command and creates the exact same thing." Can't help but laugh at the irony in that statement. Imagine how the artists themselves that have their work assimilated into the AI's algorithm without their consent feel. Whether or not you agree or disagree with the direction of AI art you gotta admit that's a pretty silly statement. It's just a prompt. You aren't doing any hard work. Getting upset over someone else using your prompt is incredibly petty
As amazing as the program is, it reminds of when George Lucas scored the initial cut of Star Wars for John Williams to listen to, to get an idea of what Lucas was looking for musically. Williams liked the pieces Lucas chose, scratched his head when Lucas said he was planning on just using the classical pieces he already used, and then asked "Wouldn't you prefer something specifically tailored to the movie, rather than a rehashed piece of music that many have already associated their own feelings to?" Lucas said give it a try, the rest is film history. Meaning, A.I. can get close to a creative idea, it may point you in the right direction creatively, or even give you inspiration, but only humans can listen to other humans and give them exactly what they are looking for. I'm a musician, writer, and visual artist. I have absolutely no fear of technology or A.I. doing anything but enhancing my creativity.
Hi, it seems you're missing the point. This new AI stuff jas definitely already attracted the attention of all sorts of businesses by now, and I think it's reasonable to think they will benefit first before it reaches the masses. So this means it will get even harder for aspiring artists (i.e everybody else than in your example, which is an exceptional case and does not represent the majority of artists). It will give you more inspiration for sure but if you are actually trying to make it as an artist make no mistake, it's about to get harder than ever. Both musicians and visual artists will be affected. Least affected will probably be artisans/handcrafters, so far robots aren't good at knitting and even 3d printers haven't taken off yet.
@@V1CCZ3XX Honestly, I really don't understand your point, unless you are talking in hypotheticals. I've created over 2000 images with Midjourney. NONE of the images have given me what I wanted to see, but have rather danced around my requests though hundreds of iterations. And still, not exactly what I'm looking for. Just random approximations. If you're saying Ai will take the place of low level concept artists who have no real talent, then I agree. But people with talent will always succeed. And who is to say that artists deserve to make a higher standard of living than the programmers making these programs? That is like telling Henry Ford he was not allowed to make the auto, because horse dealers would make less. Technology advances and people adapt. They always have. We have more connections in each or our brains than stars in the sky, and yet people worry about human resilience in the face of technological changes? I love the 80s, but I don;t want to live in the 80s for the next 1000 years. Whatever technology brings, humankind and economy will change with it.
@@lodrezzon This right here is exactly why I’m not worried. AI is great and improving quickly, but it just cannot match the ability for humans to communicate exactly what they want to each other and figure out what the images in our heads are. AI excels in giving concepts, like environments and basic character elements, but ask it to create emotion, or lay out an intricate scene with many pieces, or draw the same character in multiple diverse poses while keeping them looking like that character (famous characters like Jack Sparrow might be an exception, I’m not sure) and the AI struggles. A lot. It cannot come close as of now. Maybe at some point in the future, this will be possible, but with how long it’s taken AI to get as far as it is currently, that’s not anytime soon. And even once it reaches that point, it will take a whole new skill to unlock its potential by knowing what words to say, and what images to enhance and how. It’s not nearly as simple as “this new tool is going to replace everything!” It never is. There’s nuance, and new skills that are brought to the table. There are skills that won’t fully translate into this new tool either. Not for a long time, at least. So, imo, everyone needs to chill on this fear-mongering, doomsday crying about art dying. Art has been around since the very beginning. Mediums change with time, mainly new ones being added, and while old mediums are rarer to see, they never go away. That’s the nature of art, and how intrinsic it is to us as humans. Sure, corporations will be satisfied with basic imagery. But storytelling? Bringing to life the uniqueness in our own minds? That’s not going away, and I doubt it ever will.
@@lodrezzon what e's trying to say is companies who commission artists to draw basic logos or art, or companies who hire people to produce art for websites, will no longer need to pay people every time they need designs, or even artist who make paintings or graphic art for paying customers they will go under because misdjourney offers free/cheaper art (with the trail of 10-25 pictures) which comes out almost instantly after inputting your prompt. This too is the very beginning of AI art, With better Processers, Storage for even more AI learning and better code, Art created by humens could become lost. But I understand your points AI (as of now) cant capture the true emotions and display it as an picture.
I mean, art isn't just something that looks pretty. It's the thought and ideas and the personality that went into something that count for an actual piece of work. While AI-gen is pretty fucking cool, I just don't see it replacing humans.
@@KreepyBeepy But they do though. When you hire a freelancer, you do so because you have seen their works and like their style. Furthermore, unlike AI, artists are actually capable of abstract analysis and understanding of "taste" which would be absent in AI works.
@@DailyCorvid I consider myself an artist, actually. Ive never commissioned anyone before, mostly because I cant. The point is that I was just giving my personal thoughts about it. No need to be an ass

When AI can do the same, you really think people would flock to a freelancer instead of an AI program that can do it in seconds for little to no cost? I want an art. I want something I like. Doesn't matter who or what made it as long as I'm happy with the result. and I think most people will think that way. So when AI can do it at precision... Who would pay an artist?
Even though this won’t replace artists completely, I can see most employers using this over human artists for graphic design, concept art, etc. It’ll be cheaper, much faster, and less troublesome. No contracts, no paperwork, no risk of lawsuits, no pension, no wage, no medical benefits. Plagiarism was already a problem out of laziness and this enables that beyond 110%. I’d say this is mostly bad for artists. Human-made art will be reduced to a novelty aka rare aka small. And no one can tell the difference. It cannot be original but most people don’t care about originality. They think they do, but when the real world pressures an employer with time, originality becomes unimportant.
Yeah no, this would be good for getting concepts and just some general reference, that's hints at what you want, but you've already created an image in your mind that is far closer to what you want, the trouble is getting the image from your mind to reality. I'd say that this would become a pretty decent tool for artists to use, and enable more people to get into it, but other then streamlining the process of conceptualising, an actual peace of work, it'll just be used for generic logos and graphics. Yet even then all this is doing is pulling from everything we've made and done, and compiling a bunch of shit together to met the key words inputted.
"Human-made art will be reduced to a novelty aka rare aka small." Why do you not have your own actual analysis instead of using other people's? Seriously you people are like sheep. This is just a tool. Adapt if it becomes a problem.
As an independent digital artist, all are tools to me. It's definitely a two edged sword, to which the sharpest edge is to be most likely wielded by industry at their whim. Much like corporations. As I've been viewing the artwork that's been generated, and it didn't take long for me to see that there's still something very standardized about it. To me, no matter how stunning the work appears, there's something still underlining the work that's missing, like it's too sterile. It's the same thing I noticed when the audio industry was transitioning from analog to digital sound. Digital sound was much thinner because it was taking actual sound waves and converting them into digital data that was intended for duplication, because using cassette tape loss sound quality with each pass and digital didn't. But look at how far digital audio has come now. The time of analog recording studios being common have long passed. But have audio engineers dropped off the planet, no... And recording studios still exist. Do I believe AI Art is going anywhere... No. To the contrary, it's just beginning. I've seen this debate play out before. First in a major audio studio, when ProTools was first coming out the great debate. Then in cinema, out with super 8 and telecines, in with DVR. Hell, land lines vs cell phones... You get what I mean. The point I'm making here is this, with each change that's come, we as people adapt and find ways to make these changes still work for us, ESPECIALLY ARTIST. Did the conversion from analog to digital completely destroy recording studios, no, they still exist. Did the introduction of drum machines kill off drummers, no, they incorporate them in their sets even. Did digital mixers, kill off dj's, again no. You've got dj's that have transferred their turntable skills into their MacBook's and are doing both. I can go on and on. Artist can never be erased, because it's the one area that truly holds no real confined definition in the first place. Art is expression, and in my opinion, the power to create was never meant to be industrialized anyway.
Run Lola Run, a title of a movie that never left my brain, with all respect to the movie story and artwork creativity, I don't remember the content because I had a bad accident head trauma 1 year after the movie release, but I still remember Run Lola Run and that's what I call ART!!!!!!!Run Lola Run As second real time experience, Russian Ark movie that made me travel through time while I was sitting in Cinema Village in NEW YORK City, "I don't do drugs" and that Russian Ark dragged me me to another dimension, the feeling of being in that time of history!!!!!!!!!!just me. AS 3rd, My eyesight shivered looking at Picaso Paintings in the MET, felt something unique that couldn't be described in words, but none the less I can say, I was able to cross the 3D dimension of existence and see the Beauty of Picasso Artwork expressions in shapes and colors, again, unique moment of ART appreciation no more no less. I haven't seen, AND WILL NEVER SEE enough beauty by the CREATURE in colors, shapes AND momentum melted with time as the 4th dimension in within LIKE ONE BREATH AT THE TIME OF APPRECIATION, As far as know I am the Greatest critic of my own view of appreciation of art, I will never discuss the GREATEST ARTWORK OF THE CREATURE TO GIVE ME THE CHANCE TO EXPRESS MY OPINION IN THE ROAM OF ART.
In a reality where multiple realities can happen at the same time, stay true to yourself; and you will never be replaced -- everyone has something to offer - to all the artists out there, believe in yourself, I believe in you.
As an Artist ,my friends, that's the door to Hell, the only way to prove that you are an original will be to show the process by filming it. If it was crappy I wouldn't be scared of the Artist's future, but it actually top quality...As many people said Industry or clients don't care as as it meets their needs. I see very soon that sculpture is the next step, A.I generated then 3d printed. This is the end...
I guess it's time for those talentless hacks to begin putting effort into their art. I think this is fantastic. Sometimes the human imagination is poorer than dust.
I've been thinking this exact same thing... it makes me wonder if poeple / consumers will get tired of digital art (because anyone can now do it) and go back to analogue, e.g. traditional artists & illustrators who show the whole process behind their work
@@mttpul9843 That's an interesting thought that I hadn't considered, but ya, it would make sense for those who want actual, person made art to shift to wanting physical art such as paintings, wood carvings, and the like, as they, while fakeable, can't just be printed
Artists are not just about skill but also the philosophy that directs the skills. Skills might be replaced by A.I. art platforms but the philosophy that governs the artistic creations is still sourced from richness and intensity of human experiences. A. I. is excellent platform for artists to expresses more articulately. They are what calculator is to a mathematician.
I love the way you say Van Gogh. I've visited the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam back in the 90s - the most impressive works of his was before he lost his mind. Also his many journals and letters to his brother Theo. They removed a lot of his works now as the paper was oxidizing.
As an artist myself I find this to be absolutely amazing but also scary as well. I went to college for art and didn’t finish because it’s just too expensive. Us artists put so much effort in to our art and strive to be better. AI coming in and doing stuff within a few minutes makes it very frustrating. You won’t be able to tell whose art is legit and who’s art is AI anymore. A lot of people could lie and say they did some master piece when they in fact did not. I don’t know how to feel about it though I might make a separate account and make AI generated stuff but also keep my regular stuff because art isn’t truly art unless every stroke is from your own brush. I don’t think AI can take away production artist jobs though. I don’t see that going away I have to use a physical paintbrush everyday for that.
@@samuelfraktal1778 it's simply not that easy. "Just adapting" isnt how life works, it's going to be incredibly difficult and sometimes, you just can't. The art industry is already super competitive and relentless, adding the element of ai, most if not almost all artists would struggle finding work and fail to succeed. Art takes so much time to improve but ai can make "masterpieces" in mere seconds and will only improve at rapid speeds. Because artists are human, they simply can't compete or keep up. Of course human-made art will have more value placed into it but likely, only the best of the best or the most well known artists will ever receive any sort of success from that. Big companies would also likely not hire human artists anymore either since it's more expensive and less convenient.
Its the end of artists... I made a bottle label for some bottles i sell (alcoholic brew) with a graphic made by this AI according to what i needed and wanted to see, rather than pay for an artist to create one. This is the end of artists as much as digital photography was the end of film photography
@@beepIL the way i see it is that in the near future the bar for the expected standard level of quality is going to rise drastically so that you still need artists to use these tools to get better results than youd ever get.
@@bemlok yes, A.I gets better, but it still needs a persons direction, an artists direction and imagination, the time when A.I no longer needs any direction (which is still a while off) is probably when human augmenting will be taken seriously.
It is very addicting. I have been a MidJourney collective member for several months. What I do with the art is I further enhance it in After Effects and Photoshop. So much fun.
Yes! I was thinking the exact same thing. Can't wait to start adding animation, parallax and fx to things it generates. And it's funny because recently I've been really wanting to collaborate with artists doing a very similar thing, but it's so hard to find an artist that would be willing to collaborate like that.
@@JaromTV I am new motion graphics and sfx designer student myself. My hopes align with in using this program along with after effects. good luck on the journey
I tried this and it was fun for the themes I wanted, which was: dark and freakish. It turned out well. I can see it being great for inspiration. Sometimes artists have to prove that they actually made the art. Using this technology would totally invalidate you. Just use it for roughs and concept art.
I just joined the Midjourney channel today and all I can say is oh my god, it's amazing. I have always wanted to create art based on ideas from my own imagination but I have zero artistic talent. I have created a couple of images already and cannot believe how incredible this is. It's not a replacement for those super talented people out there who can create images from scratch using any material they want, but for someone like me, this is incredible!
If u enjoyed midjourney sign up for dall e 2. Which is basically a better version of midjourney and their image always have Personality (like different posture, Pose, Pose stances, Camera angle, etc) I tried both and my god DALL e just blew midjourney. mind u Midjourney was trained with 400 millions images while Dall e 2 is trained with 3 BILLIONS(and it was made by elon musk)
And then what? A machine created a few soulless pictures based on a few words you had in mind. No proccess involved no hardship no pain, but also no satisfaction. What do you do now with the pictures? Maybe you are excited now but see how you get bored in the matter of a few hours. And also, i dont think anyone got the whole thing they want to create already in mind, every detail planned. I think it comes together by creating and the process, you get inspiration with every small brush stroke or every dot you paint. But this takes everything away.
This. This video 7 months ago was the one that flipped it for me, the power of AI, the one that made me convinced AGI is coming soon, the one that made me think this thing has no limits. This video woke me up 7 months ago.
As a young artist, it sure feels great that I might never get to work with art because someone somewhere decided that art, of all the other things out there, should be automated first. You know, art? That job _no one takes just to pay the bills,_ but because of passion and love? Yeah, thanks for that, developers. I guess I'll just never get to follow my passion. Thanks for crushing my childhood dreams.
Said developers will patting selves on the back will also be eaten alive as there's no limit to AI. AI doesn't need developers to write programs. Pandoras box opened and its running like a river.
As an old school designer I started pre computers when we had to type set and cut and paste manually. When computers came along everyone predicted we would all be out of work. Years later as things evolved I’m still here and so are all the other designers who learn’t to adapt with the new tools. So please stop panicking! A.I is just another tool. I love the A.I in photoshop it saves me a lot of time, but I’m still in the drivers seat not the A.I. This is an amazing tool and I’m sure some users will use the art it creates as is and sell it to the masses to make money. That’s not what designers, concept artists and illustrators create. We have to follow a brief or art directors instructions, it’s not random as in A.I. I believe A.I will enhance our creations and ideas but at the end of the day it’s just programming and coding it doesn’t think for itself.
bro your thinking as replaceable tools look at it in the perspective of the artist who wants to sketch when there is AI that can sketch for you who want to draw when AI can draw for you , so you cant see it as a tool the AI is the one thats doing it for you , its not you by any means but in your case its still you in the job so you cant compare those two , i take hours just to draw a realistic arts this can even actually make artist disappear cause peoples like perfection and they will always chose AI correct me if am wrong but this is what i think
@@sparkplug964 i agree with you man its scary how the ai are going to replace every profession available to humans. I have not been for too long in this industry and one thing i know that this ai is going make million of designer and artists jobless. I have worked few times with another designers on a project and we take our time to think imagine and create something but this ai changes the stuff as we know. Its scary.
A BIG misconception about this technology is that it "thinks" by itself. This is nothing but pattern recognition of large image data sets that raises some ethical questions like: Why are this corporations charging to generate images based on art from artist that DID NOT consent to be used in their data sets?
it's basically a photobash of a very large library of pictures and digital art. Its neat and could be useful for some companies that already have a large bank of digital art data.
@@ThoseWhoHeedTheCall Its not about the art I think. The Ai most likely just steals pictures from others and adds it to its dataset. if you want to use it commercially I think you would have to have trained the AI with prictures you have the rights to. Of course you could argue that for a human too in a way but the training set needs to exist so there could be prove that a certain picture was in it that it didn't have rights to. You can't do that with a human
Honestly I don't think this will overtake the art industry, at the end of the day we are just humans, when we draw, we experience feelings and emotions which are hard to explain, we become happy and proud when he have drawn something nice, and the more we draw the more better we get, you get more creative and look forward to the next time you draw. It's so many things that makes drawing pleasant, it's not about the final picture, it's about what you did in order to achieve that picture, if you write a text and then an AI draws it for you, you didn't have to work hard for it, so there is no reward. If there is no reward, where is the fun? I think humans are not capable of everything being automated and done for you with no effort put in, that is just not in our nature. I think this will being a relevant thing for a while and people will get bored of it.
Maybe, but it will oversaturate the art market and lower the appreciation for art. Also companies will definitely use this because it is the most efficient thing.
@@Val-kj5wn the appreciation for art is already at an alltime low anyway, intsagram being saturated with mediocrity at all times. i fail to see how this changes that. people with good taste will continue to find good artists and support them.
Repent and follow Jesus my friend! Repenting doesn't mean confessing your sins to others, but to stop doing them altogether. Belief in Messiah alone is not enough to get you into heaven - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Contemplate how the Roman empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years to accomplish the religion of the Israelites C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate though because you can start a relationship with God and have proof. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life. - Revelation 3:20 Revelation has been unfolding since Jesus died. The Popes have claimed to be equal to God and set themselves in Jesus' place (antichrist(s)). Vatican City (Which is its own nation BTW) have risen up to fulfill the role of the false prophet Regarding the man of lawlessness or antichrist, 2 Thessalonians 2:4 says “Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” The restrainer that the Apostle Paul was referring to in 2 Thessalonians was the Western Roman Emperor, who held back the Popes from taking power. Once the last Western Roman Emperor was removed from power in 476 AD, the Pope was given civil and ecclesiastic authority over Rome; healing the deadly head wound of the beast in Revelation 13, as they took the Emperors title of Pontifex Maximus, leader of the church and state. “We may according to the fullness of our power, dispose of the law and dispense above the law. Those whom the Pope of Rome doth separate, it is not a man that separates them but God. For the Pope holdeth place on earth, not simply of a man but of the true God.” (Source: “Decretals of Gregory IX,” Book 1, chapter 3.) Pope Pius V blasphemed, “The Pope and God are the same, so he has all power in Heaven and earth.” (Source: Pope Pius V, quoted in Barclay, Cities Petrus Bertanous Chapter XXVII: 218.) Pope Leo XIII declared, “We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty.” (Source: Pope Leo XIII Encyclical Letter, June 20, 1894) The antichrist sea beast of Revelation points to the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, who controlled the Roman beast for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. Daniel 7:25 says “And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.” The Popes of Rome spoke against Elohim and proclaimed to be God. They reigned for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. during which they caused tens of millions of saints to be killed. The Pope’s title is Vicar of Christ, which in Latin is ‘Vicarius Filii Dei’, and equates numerically to the number 666

Seeing how good this thing is, people will eventually starts to advertise their job as an artist with "100% human-made skill and not software/AI generated work"
Ikr, making "actually good artists" have more reason to raise their price... doesn't sound like a threat to me.
You have to have a big Unique selling positioning, seriously this a.i art is insanely georgeous
Now even our souls are for sale. Where does it get this from? This is scaring me. I never thought this would be possible.
But business won't care. They want efficiency and productivity. The least amount of resources for the best products. That's business. I fear they might embrace this. What's the next iteration? Moving images? Film? Animation?
The only thing that gives me comfort is it's the "Writer" behind the story and images. Ground zero.
@@pr0x1madigital For now. After playing with this all day, I've made some legit REALLY good pieces that I could easily sell to a client and I've seen stuff from other people using MJ that honestly blows my mind. I've seen people making fine art, graphic design, logos, t-shirt designs, etc. and many of them are "actually good." That being said, (1) the AI still needs some human steering to get best results, (2) it will still make some things that are pretty wonky, regardless, and, most importantly, (3) the AI doesn't know the difference between the really good stuff and the really wonky stuff. In that sense, we human artists are still safe.
BUT this is still early days. The genie's out of the bottle and, from here, the AI will only get better and better. There's a point in the not-too-distant future where the AI will be able to consistently do what "actually good artists" do without needing so much steering. The better it gets at turning that text into art without needing tweaking, the less clients will need the "middle man" artist.
At that point, as @AdvanG said, human artists might start advertising their art with "100% human-made" in the art world's version of "non GMO" but let's be real: if the end quality is the same, 99% of clients won't care. Especially since it might take a human artist at least a couple of hours to create a piece + all the additional time of going back and forth with the client's notes to arrive at a final, but the AI can generate countless variations in minutes and any client notes can be incorporated pretty much instantly.
So, yeah, it's not a threat today but tomorrow is coming quicker than a lot of people think. Human artists have the upper hand right now but this is the beginning of that slipping away. Don't let human egocentrism fool you into thinking that "human-made" is going to mean anything to anyone beyond niche collectors and the Luddite holdouts once the AI can do it at least as well AND much faster.
i love how out of all the things people were afraid of AI taking over, art was rarely one of them. and now it's one of the first.

@@oldinactiveaccount Dude, I think your dream is safer than most other artists, that's because being a cartoonist involves much more than making a cool design or spending hours rendering a scenario, it's much more about being a good critic, knowing how to make humor, and a lot of creativity, I think these things won't be replaced by AI because people won't want to consume something that is the result of "critical thinking" of a machine.

I graduated from art school in 1981, long before Photoshop. I earned a living for many years doing illustrations with traditional media -- mostly airbrush. I transitioned to digital in 1995 and absolutely loved my first version of Photoshop. (3.0!) I added Cinema 4d to my toolbox in 1997, which greatly increased the control I had over my images. I'm still managing multiple deadlines at 70, loving working digitally, and have no plans on retiring.
As artist/illustrators, we have no choice but to embrace this amazing technology, add it to our toolbox, and find some way to bring our personal vision to it. If we don't -- those who do will "eat our lunch". I shudder to think of how my career would have gone if I had insisted on remaining an airbrush illustrator.

I find this form of artificial intelligents is extremely helpful but at the same time terrifying for all those jobs that take creativity, think about it. If they explore deeper into this rabbit hole of data, jobs such as architecture and digital art will not be a thing. Its a serial topic and for me it can be a great conversation started!!
This will not replace high art. Yeah, sure it looks good, but it's also missing what makes art interesting. Questions like, what made the artist draw this? How did drawing it feel? What do they want to tell us? All of these questions can be answered the same way: This is the result of what the AI associates with the input. That's it. And that's, while technologically impressive, artistically utterly boring. The only thing this will replace is something like stock video game assets.
I also really don't think so. While this tool is useful, especially for people like me who really cannot draw, I don't think this is art at all.
@@somedudeok1451 i mean it could be interpreted differently like: what made the artist to give these inputs to the ai to make this? What do they want to tell us by this ai generated image? or...maybe i didn't get your point ( and yes i avoided the second question cause it's pretty subjective and answerable )
Edit: i agree that ai can't replace HIGH level art Yet or maybe never cuz an artwork of a person can greatly reflects his personality and like how his art changes as he is in different points in his life experiencing different things and wanting to convey different things using different instruments with his unique skills,But if an artificial intelligence ever gains consciousness(which maybe is impossible) then this would be a breeze. (sorry for my bad english tho)
@@somedudeok1451 Yes, the rich 0.01% of artists will still make money, great news!
There will always be people who will pay real artists to create artwork with their own hands. This will just generate a marketing tag "Non-AI Artwork" or "100% created by human" and therfore a reason for artists to charge more for their work.
Many still don't understand the reality of this problem, this will affect the behaviour of content creation and consumption all around the world. We won't seek knowledge behind each piece of work, this curiosity will eventually dissappear and we will become apathetic towards the things that lies right before our eyes.

I understand what you are saying, and I agree on most of it.
But what I'd like to shed a light on, if I may, is that true art, the one that a human being can express, will never truly vanish. There will always be people appreciating it, cultivating it, working with it.

I have been saying AI will be a great artist for over 10 years. Why? Because nothing thinks more outside the box than AI in chess. People who don't know chess think it is unimaginative. That is simply not true. Checkers maybe, not chess.
I was thinking the same
@@ChessMasterNate Chess is 100% unimaginative, it's literally just theory and if you dont play theory, you lose. You dont have "options" you have 1 correct move and every other move is definitely and objectively a bad move because of theory, being good at chess is the equivalent to being able to recite more numbers of pi than someone else
I remember when we thought AI couldn't have agency... Good times
As a professional graphic designer and digital artist, relying on a life time of experience, (50+ years), this has two sides to it. The results as you might expect, are spectacular, and at the same time these programmes allow those who are not designers/artists to achieve results that even experienced creators would find difficult to create. The need for those of us who have specialised, is totally removed. Since the advent of these programmes I have left the digital world and returned to painting. Thus, sadly, the downside is the unstoppable march of technology over man's creative ability.
And it will get much worse. In the end program can have all sources in the world and infinitely better power than your brain. I always thought that human creativity, art will be replaced as last. Sadly its not the case. In near future we will see ai creating high quality movies, books, art in extremely short period of time.
It's only a matter of time befor AI takes over all fields.
@@aaronoconnor606 And its closer than people think it is. It will probably take 10 years and we will have technology to replace everything and everyone. It will take much longer to implement everything, but its kinda scary. We are going to live in era of no dreams or hopes, pure depresion in world where we are no longer needed.
@@MADHEWPRAGUE Awesome thank you Silicon Valley for umm, yeah whatever you did for us!
I've already noticed similarities in style and execution that make the originality of human hands still hold value.

RIP to all of the artist out there already struggling to find gigs. I Stan with you. For what its worth. Know that nothing could ever replace your dedication, blood sweat and tears.
Can't imagine the existential crisis they must be having right now. Sad man. A new verification system needs to come in to identify what is AI and what is not.
Bro in a year or two ai art is gonna completely replace us the only thing it cant do right now is hands ...
Image Generation for AI is human equivalent to taking inspiration from real life experiences or other artists. So its still art. Otherwise all the art in the world would be just called fake.
Exactly! AI artists can never recreate the paint strokes of an artist, wether it’d be traditional or digital
This seems to be the consensus, but I'm skeptical. People still value original artwork, and those who can actually afford to have art commissioned will continue to do so if they care about quality. Take the Lensa example. If there was no Lensa, it's not like people would be hiring professional artists to create anime-style portraits of themselves. Few people could even afford to do that if they wanted to. Instead, they'd be doing what they were before, which was not sharing anime-style pictures of themselves on social media.
As many say, yes. The problem isn't the ai itself. Artists could also take benefit from this and actually create their own reference images, or incredibly speed up the brain storming process. The problem are those people who approach art and of course artists, as mere objects or something irrelevant.
If you deprive a person of creativity, the emotions of creating something, what makes him/her different from a machine at this point ?

@@SovermanandVioboy of course it won't 100% be me I'm just typing commands in for the AI to do it. The point is like I already said to create something from your mind when you don't have the artistic talent to put in on paper. I want to create my own posters to put up in my house, i may not have made it with my own hands but it did come from my imagination. So it is useful

There will always be a need and desire for real art - made by humans.
Never stop believing in your talents - you are unique and so very important.
I always remember the scene from Will smith asking robot "Can you generate a beautiful painting" and robot replying "Can you?".
The fact that if somebody gave me random prompt and that I wouldn't even come close to painting something like this, is pretty insane to think about
Then the robot proceeds to make art
He also asked the robot, can a robot make a symphony?

Right? Do these people not realize these programs are stealing people's artwork?
Ahahahah it's totally true. By the way, stealing what? a bunch of words? If your talent is based on that you're gonna have many problems in your career
@@WHzDesign The AI literally takes parts of artwork it finds on the internet to make it's 'original' art.
@@joet7136 Yet the “stealing” is taking the words, not taking the art. As an artist, I’m miffed, among other things.
As an artist and a programmer, here is my large pile of thoughts about this:
I have mixed feelings about this as many of you also probably do. It will certainly disrupt the commercial art industry and my heart goes out to the freelancers that will be affected by this. Perhaps sites like Pinterest should also be considering how these algorithms can disrupt mood-boards etc.
But if you first use the tool, you will realize that many of the colors, textures and design elements that the algorithms add to your images are selected from the data it is trained on without much of your own intention or context. The algorithms by default start with literal random noise and builds the image from there. You can of course add your own images and refine the prompt details, making your results more and more specific to get to the final render you want. What do we call this process?
To get something decent from this, you still need intention, decent taste, a discerning eye, perhaps some comedic or poetic intuition as well when coming up with the prompts. (You will also find that as you add more and more details to your prompts, the results may start to break down. Maybe this is something that will improve over time, or maybe I myself am not skilled enough at prompt generation to avoid these pitfalls)
You create these images based on data made from the hard work of countless artists before. IP and legal stuff will certainly be an interesting question with these algorithms….
Would I say that images created by this tool were created by me? Not personally. I would say that I came up with the prompt idea, and guided the AI tool to arrive at a result that I wanted. It feels somewhat collaborative. It does certainly bother me when people take raw images from these tools and say “look what I made!”. The AI fills in too many design decisions for me to ever feel comfortable saying that I made those choices, unless I happened to make the prompt specific enough to do so. Some other artists have made those design choices already, and ideally these algorithms would give them some credit.
My point is, good design is purposeful and design decisions should be made with actual purpose/intention, contextualized by the needs of your project. Examples: this character needs five feathers on their wing because it is symbolic for something, or this new smartphone needs to be in this shape for this very specific usability reason, etc.
The random search of these algorithms may get lucky and arrive at an image that will exactly satisfy your needs, especially if your needs are not very specific. For an actual commercial project like a game, movie, product design etc., more often many of the images produced by this tool are not good enough for a final render.
This tool is good for brainstorming ideas, providing bottomless inspiration for design elements, and also can be a great source of material for digitally inclined creatives. I have seen artists generate several of these images and take elements from each, Photoshopping elements of them together into a purposeful and meaningful digital collage piece of sorts. 3D artists can use it to make textures for their games or renders. It significantly lowers the barrier to creation, and will no doubt disrupt the industry. I even have a friend who uses it in their DnD group to make backgrounds for their games.
The value of a digital image will be reassessed under these conditions; perhaps more emphasis will be placed on the poetry or ideas behind these synthetic images. Not to mention that these AI cannot create a physical painting. They cannot create a physical piece of pottery made by hand and burned in a kiln for three days of of the coast of some distant island in Japan. When a robot makes its own conscious decision to travel to some far off land to paint the sunset off the shore and comes back with masterpiece that embodies its own experience with love, nostalgia, and heartbreak, maybe that will be the day that artists of all mediums should be afraid. Until then, these algorithms are just tools
Perhaps there will also be value on art created without the use of AI, 100% human organic wholesale kind of thing. I would not be surprised if there was a backlash to using AI tools in some sectors, especially as we are saturated with more and more of these synthetic images. Maybe there will also be emphasis on the process people use to get their results, for example those painters that record videos of themselves painting are a work of art in and of themselves.
Further disruptive technologies powered by AI are certain to come; videos, music etc can also be generated by AI. But again, the algorithms still require a human to come up with the idea (driven by a creative impulse, design need, etc), refine the result through several iterations, doctor the results (perhaps some post processing, not to mention fixing the terrifying faces these early algorithms create). It is not replacing humans quite yet.
The real danger lies in how the commercial industry will use this stuff. We already live in a world where many “creative” decisions are made simply to get the most money, and not necessarily to create the most original or thought provoking pieces of work. I am worried that these algorithms will exacerbate problems we are seeing in an already stilted media industry, where pop culture already feels rehashed and derivative. It sounds incredibly boring to live in a world where synthetic images are created from datasets of rehashed synthetic images. But that is also why these algorithms cannot replace the human aspect.
These algorithms can recombine data in ways that can even be considered creative by some definitions, but they simply cannot incorporate new lived experience. The works made by them are by definition derivative. Additionally, the images you are allowed to create will be limited by the prompts you are allowed to use, dictated by the companies that own the tools. If you have used DALLE-2 or Midjourney, you will realize that they are both especially strict to prevent legal issues on their end. In that sense, when you are using these algorithms, your creativity is still pretty bounded.
Humans will by virtue of living will always have new data and experiences available to them, and that is where the freshest, rawest material comes from in my opinion. That “you couldn’t make this stuff up” moment when someone is telling a story.
Don’t stay inside looking at a screen all day, live life to the fullest (and perhaps I should take my own advice, ha). Go outside, fall in love with something or someone, then lose it all and do it again. Live your life, acquire new experiences, write about them, make creative projects that reflect what you have learned. Don’t compare yourself to other humans or AI algorithms. Authentic experiences are by definition irreplacable.

Learn AI and Cyber Security
I along with current profession(which might have a chance to be taken over by AI)......we all should work on developing another profession along with the main one.
As an artist I've always thought about a device that could use my brain waves to draw more precisely the ideas in my head. This could eventually be it, a dream come true... or a nightmare that will cost me my livelihood and my purpouse in life.
Or you actually use your creative brain and make better work than others with AI.
@@TehBananaBread Which will then be used to teach ai to narrow down "better work".
@That guy Everybody can run, yet only a few are able to compete at the olympics. The quickdraw shitters will be filtered out from the people who actually take their time to understand and learn the AI properly.
@That guy Well said! The cultivation of the soul requires the trial of reaching for something, or in the least, the experience of doing something. To not cultivate oneself through such a process will lead to sadness. The lesson for many may be to indulge only to find themselves without meaning. I love to write things down and draw by hand, play music on instruments, and do gymnastic-like motions outside. Each of those things incorporates my senses which accumulate in my body in a way that allows me to love all those around me and existence itself.
@@TehBananaBread and those who claim the true artists will still stand out, I support you. But what about all the people who have spent their lives getting skilled up and are perhaps average, for employable artists. The thing is, even for the cream, your average employer can't tell the difference between good and bad art, so back to the reality that 40 years of training and experience lose their value when the machine enters. I've been through the same experience a few years back as a translator. The machine knocked out the bottom of the market and that brought the cream flopping down on the wreckage, with nothing below to support it. It also made entry extremely difficult. I was sent texts which had been machine translated, and my job was 'just' to edit them, at half price. When artists are under pressure from competition with machines, employers will exploit it. Trouble is with machine texts it was nearly impossible to puzzle out what the text was actually about and it required much more mental effort than if I had just translated it myself. I am still a better translator than the best AI but, the employer doesn't care, and just leverages machine translation to oppress human translators. Apply this lesson learned in translation to the world of illustration. There is no way the machine will not impact the lives of illustrators and animators and many many many people will lose the livelihood they have taken a lifetime to build, because acquiring the level of rendering the machine can do requires many years, and there are so many levels of doing this work, and the majority of skilled people are not at the 'top'. So we will just starve. Judging from the comments here no one cares.
I was talking to a writer who was pretty stoked for AI; now he could get cheap, fast covers for his books. "You do realise its just a matter of time ti´l we get AI-writers as well." Oh the awkward silence.

In fact it is what designers will feel how photographers felt with stock photos. It's not going to replace stock photo, but but designers entirely. Either your client will type his own and not need your service at all or some cheap designers will use this to undercut everyone on price, thus pushing everything down.
@@danielvilliers612 whats amazing is people immediately only seeing the narrow self serving nature of this and not how its going to eventually blindside them the way stock photography did a photographer.

I have been a drummer since age 10. In the early 80's when drum machines were all the rage, a school mate told me I was now redundant as a drummer. The idea of this rattled me. In the end I found people really wanted real and live drums. they wanted to see a real person play. - In the same way, people will always want to own and appreciate art created by real artists. A.I. art is great and will have its place but in 100 years you won't see it hanging on gallery walls.
Well. Thing is most people wont even notice the difference beteween an AI work or a handraw. Will they start paying to watch you painting? Either way it will reduce the offer for artists and elevate the requirements for an artist to live from it .

You forgot industrial artist. That will be the one whose career ended by these A.I
Can you mention any other AI generator tool of this level?
I agree that this will increase the value of handmade, like the steam driven loom increased the value of hand wovens, but it also put many many weavers out of a living and they smashed the steam looms in an attempt to save themselves from becoming factory slaves. And if you take a closer look at the 'hand' made art world, really only about 0.1% of these ever make a living. Photography killed the portrait industry, video killed the radio star on and on it goes. AI will kill the commercial artist. so the top 1% will survive... .but how do they get to be the top 1% without years of practice lower down ? To those personally affected and to those who will be broken by this, the least we can do is let them speak out and grieve. Trying to silence them is just such fascist, macho nonsense.

As an artist this is beautiful. My ideas & thoughts manifested almost instantly. But nothing will ever beat the satisfaction from taking a week to finish a painting you work hard on.
@{𝒯𝒽𝑒 𝒮𝒾𝓁𝓋𝑒𝓇 𝑀𝑜𝑜𝓃} just change job, we need people at mines
@{𝒯𝒽𝑒 𝒮𝒾𝓁𝓋𝑒𝓇 𝑀𝑜𝑜𝓃} It seems scary now, but eventually people will just have to adapt, and probably collaborate with AI. The truth is, the art that the AI makes is only based on artwork that already exists, and is generated via pattern recognition, people however, can create new concepts, shapes, patterns.
I looked forward to using something similar, and using it for reference-building based on inputs that inspire me as an individual.
Only idiots take satisfaction in hard work.
But this is a whole problem, you can pay let's say 60$/hour for 40 hours for a total of 2400$ for a painting, + a week of waiting for a little bit better painting, or you could instead use AI to generate the thing almost for free for a minute of waittime
I am scared that normal people find this more valuable than a real artist's work. There will be no point anymore in creativity if a machine does that for us. Current generation might still retain that sense of fulfillment, but I'm worried about the next ones.
A bit scary seeing this happen so fast. I used think "hm I guess in the future robots will make art and music" been weird though, after NFTs I've finally realized the value in being a traditional artist.

@@tosvus Touché
@@tosvus isn’t it great that machines are finally taking on the horrifically burdensome and uninspiring task of making art?
@@negativghostrdr people can still make art the way they want, whether that is painting, photography, music, sculptures and so on. People with less talent and or time can use this. Once upon a time, the only way to take a photo was to make it using salt prints, then later albumen paper. These days everyone can take a far more realistic, and typically more visually appealing photo with their cell phones. Artists used to have to buy canvas and paints, and have a place to store it all, now you can get a tablet and do it digitally. Music is the same thing, back in Mozart's days, buying an instrument was prohibitively expensive, now anyone can use a computer, and add whatever midi-device they want to interface (or simply plot in notes on a pad or with a keyboard). To each his own. If some people get pleasure from generating art by typing in descriptions, or it helps them make that album cover they couldn't afford to hire an artist to do because they know their music will likely never get more than a few hundred listeners on Spotify, good on them. If they get successful, they will likely hire artists for cover art, musicians to perform their music rather than using virtual instruments etc.
Agreed
Before I knew how it was done, I saw an Instagram account full of mind blowing art work and felt like I had a long way to go if I ever want my work to be discovered. Then I found out that all the images were created by IA. I can’t stop myself from loving the vibrant images, yet, I don’t admire the “creator” of these images the way I did before.
How so? It’s still an extension of the person creativity. Most artist are too attached to their work. So they never make a living with it. Because part of them is in. It’s great for concept art and. As an animator it cost tons of money to even get drafts created and the time it takes can be inconvenient to some projects. It’s advancement in technology. Innovation in traditional art. The same concept that “ everyone “ is an artist. It’s no different than abstract art on a canvas . Times are evolving in innovation. The traditional artist is poor. Starving because of old outdated models. Most artist hate this concept. But a style is like a genre in music. It’s generalized. Art is deep connection. It’s not always the traditional paintings. That’s the beginning of art. It’s deep. It’s a perspective. Many cry because of it which is why most artist starve. They don’t innovate. The landscape of the world is shifting digital. Technology advances is happening whether artist hop on board are not. But it’s happening. So as an artist be a pioneer. Most artist are just that. An artist and that’s not even the highest achievement in creativity. Artist are becoming obsolete. Artist need to evolve from traditional formats to stay of value to advancement in society. True Art pushes humanity. I don’t call myself an artist. A creative. But sadly artist must create value for the world and not self appreciation.
@@theblackmoth1111 I agree with most of your comments and as a photoshop artist, I realise that many painters wouldn’t consider my work art either. However, writing down one’s imagination in a few simple words is simply not as impressive to me. It’s like comparing a delicious microwave meal to an average home cooked meal. I’d still give the cook who prepared and added all the ingredients for the dish more respect. The effort put into learning and creating art from scratch means more to me personally, which is why I respect a capable painter more than a photoshop artist like myself, let alone an AI “artist”.
@vyhozshu odinyana I’ve often come across images that are described IA/photoshop art. I’d love to see a before and after just to see how much the creator has done himself to take it to the next level and give credit where credit is due.
To answer your question, we live in a world where pretty much everyone knows the difference between photography and a painting. We all accept and admire both art forms for what it is without ever comparing or competing between the two. AI, on the other hand, is still a very new and unfamiliar concept to many, which is why there are no clear categories within the different digital art forms and that’s the problem.
@@theblackmoth1111 dont be deluded is not a extension of the artist, is a machine using references of other artist creating something base on words.
@@SibilaDelphos that’s pretty obvious. Like it or not it’s a thing. What happened to everyone is a creative. Styles are universal. That’s the sad truth. Art is subjective. No different that as a writer informing an animator how to design a character with references. Many artist is threaten by it. Why it’s a thing? It’s literally free and you can take ownership of it. Your view is limited. Open your perspective. It’s an extension of the artist if the artist use it as inspiration for their own art. Art is creating. Even if it’s by a “machine”. A machine creates things. Sometimes at a higher level than the actual artist who must go through different processes. Even if it’s better people want conveniency. There is 3D modeling software with already established characters that you can tweak into your own experiences or movements. Making a starry night painting of legos isn’t art either huh? That’s not art either huh? Only physically painting is? To each it’s own. I am on the fence about it. But true artist continue and adapt with it. Not cry about it’s not “art”. Many technologies will advance art for art sake. But what A.I can’t do is created the same imagery into scenery. So the artist is still valuable. But the artist must detach from its work if they want to make a living doing it. It has to be useful for others to. Not just an expression for the artist. You may not like it. Neither do I but on a larger scope. You still have to be creative at the core. Even if it’s “ typing a few words “ it’s a actualized thought. People aren’t buying local artist art. They whether buy it from department stores. That’s what the artist must realize. The craft will never fade out. It’s people finding new ways to go about their creative projects. It can cost $ to revise a character or even how a scene would look. Now you can generate references with just a few words? A game changer. Utilize it more than you criticize it because it’s a thing now.
As many others have said here, I'm and arts student who first saw how good AI had become a few months ago, and ever since then I have lost all hope and desire to draw or paint. It's just painful to realize that everything that matters to me has just become a few clickable options, rendering me completely useless in an already difficult career. I feel empty and hopeless, and I don't know how I'm going to deal with the next year of my degree.
😆😆why do you say that it is a difficult career, isn't this tech supposed to work for your advantage camoon use it it's for art.
This is just another vehicle for expression. A true artist doesn’t feel threatened they feel inspired. Assert your style and display your mind, no matter the canvas.
@@Met9171 Working in the art field is difficult because there are lots of very talented artists and the demand is limited. And this tech is not going to work for us just like automated trucks won't work for truckers, they will take away their jobs in the future.
It can be a good tool if you are a seasoned artist, I guess? but honestly, put your self in the shoes of some teenager that just started learning art and want to push it as a career, what motivation to learn foundations do you have? none. you are better off working at a call center, it probably pays as well as an art job, and "expression" is not good enough reason to even become an artist, art is already pretty much dead honestly, is already pretty decadent with more hoops and little "tools" then there are artists in the market, if you want to even compete in this field you need to know at least 10 different softwares, be from a first world country, know C# and Python and spam social media to make 30$ dollars an hour, and now, if the competition couldn't get any worse, you have Ai, and more people are gonna flood the market, the demand is gonna grow thinner and thinner, and though luck if you can't adapt to this new standard.
My son sent me this video who is / was a artist …. I understand what you are saying! The more AI. we have the more Obsolete we become
The content here never fails to impress! The detailed breakdowns, clear comparisons, and exceptional sound design and storytelling are incredibly valuable. Big thanks for the insightful and well-crafted material!
And here I was thinking that automation / AI is a threat to just traditional job roles, and the safest place would be those that are creators. Thanks for blowing my mind

@@Japanlover79 To me Automation causes more unemploymemnt at points to me.
Idk I think there is possible benifit but still.
Everything digital is at risk of automation. It’s just a matter of what gets automated first
@@chillysanders4415 There are even AI’s that can write code. They’re not good enough to replace software developers yet, but it’s only a matter of time.
This technology is incredible...but at the same time I feel bad for concept artists. I'm sure many studios will simply utilize this as a quick cost effective option vs hiring artists on their projects.
Not yet but maybe in 2030 or earlier, I think the AI could even programm this whole thing.
My friend's video game company is already saving a lot of money with this. Even if they need a concept artist, they start with this to speed up the process. They basically give the artist an AI made concept and just ask for it to be refined a bit.
@@PeXis big doubts
AI: humans are obsolete, I think I'll destroy them.
you are thinking too short term. it's not just concept artists but the entire ideas of academia, study and entertainment, start to finish will be out of the hands of humans, and intellectual property will become a completely redundant concept. Medicine, research, history, technology, movies will be made, video games, virtual environments, cures for things, everything will all be researched and designed by algorithms. The only question will be how hard we as people fight to keep that technology open or closed. Right now, we're losing that battle and it will enslave us.
Being on that Discord server is truly a surreal feeling.
Watching insane works of art (if you can call it that) being created by people literally every second, everything from a Cyberpunk version of Walter white to a photorealistic picture of a zombie Buzz Lightyear to pictures of Soviet space ships flying in Earth's orbit.
How do I get into the discord or use this tool?
I wanna know too
yooooo hoot i love your content
also yeah i agree that discord is a digital acid trip and im all for it
@@Shorkshire literally just watch the video
lol
I’m not worried. If anything, as someone who’s worked in both digital and fine art, people still want hand created originals. I have seen the things my son has showed me with ai art and it’s so cool. I think it’s inspiring to come up with some really unique ideas to create from. A catalyst.
As a residential designer, I feel it's only a matter of time before AI takes over my job and designs houses for builders and home buyers. As the population increases and job tasks are being taken over by AI...either humans will become obsolete or adapt to make income in other ways. We'll have to see what the future holds.
I agree, i mean imagine you say modern house grayish colors, purple sofa lots of light in living room etc, you can click redo 100 times in 1 hour and get something you really really like. It will also be able to follow all the modern building best practices and be as detailed as you wish... This will happen for sure, for any design, websites, books anything really.
👍🇵🇹
That’s what they’re trying to do, eventually we will be on a universal credit, because AI will have taken just about every job, leaving most population without income. Sad times
@@LieutenantDanz only 0.001% of the population will have all the wealth of the world
Something new also creates new possibilities, if Artist AI or just any other AI dosent creat new jobs for people then lets say people gradually become jobless that will also bring down the purchasing power or consumption of things too hence a company making movies out of AI will not have audience to watch it cause the average consumer who is job less will be in search of food and not entertainment
Honestly, its the satisfaction that I am able to create the artwork that pushes me. Making art through a.i. robs you of that feeling so you may have awesome looking art, but you'll inevitably feel empty inside.
most of it looks empty as well, the same overpolished fucking bullshit spoiled by blatantly plagiarizing other artist's hardwork
it takes away the process of making art, thus the fun and satisfaction of saying "I made this", you are right
That's the thing. This is not for the artists. This is there to replace the artists. What you do is useful to your talents are no longer necessary.
@@ShinobiNerro13 gd point
Even if it isn’t great it still scares me that we are possibly even years away from this surpassing human made art. The technological singularity seems inevitable and in the very near future.
'Please don't steal it...imagine how you would feel if someone simply copies you're command and creates the exact same thing' Uh, my guy, that's exactly what real artists are saying. What are we dooooing?
fr lol
The thing is even if you copy someones string of commands you will not get the same result as the original generated picture. Because this it what the AI does, Generates pictures, By random even if you use the same commands. If you use the same commands 5 times in a row none of those 5 end results will look the same.
@@MarLin67 if you have the same seed it will give the same product. If you search for examples you will see that based on a certain image it will give the same result. it's shit
Not copies, it gets data from the pic and combines with other data to form an image
The irony really is something. Artists have been saying that for years. And now some noob tech bro thinks making a prompt is as exhausting as dedicating years to hone your art and get stollen lol
As a freelance illustrator I honestly feel my industry is very threatened.
I don't see why a client with a vague idea should come to me and ask for a character design, a cover or a study, if in 5 min they can have it from such an AI to such an optimal rendering that to the untrained eye it looks 'authentic'.
In my opinion it will take work away from many in the industry, with the only exceptions of those who already have a big name and will continue to have work.
As we move forward, however, more and more young people will not find jobs because they will not have the opportunity to build their 'name' and only a few, already fewer than they are now, will be able to live off art alone...
Very true. Same thing happened to translators, nobody thought a machine could be any good at translating text. Now it is and starting in the space is impossible because there is no low level work. Either you are better than ai, or no one will pay for your services. Even if you are better, most people are ok with "good enough" translation. And the transition happened really fast, like 5-10 years. If I was an aspiring artist I would reconsider my career choice ASAP.
Happened to the photography with the invention of digital.. I'm In the Property Photography industry which is now a less than minimum wage job with a couple of company's controlling The market.
Art should belong to originators. This has turned up at the right time IMHO. What is the value of artefacts that are so ubiquitous and every millennial is a special artist? The old Greek tragedies are valuable because there are few of them. And every "artist" and "illustrator" and "home producer" are making works that are pretty similar. When was the last timer you heard a song that was fresh? I think this will separate the real artists from the massive cesspit of capable but samey garbage career artists that are only offering same same same same. Want to surpass this tech? Do something fresh.
I think what artist can provide is adjustments and add their own flair from AI generated artwork to make the consumer 100% happy. Saves you alot of time drawing from scratch as well and gets the client exactly what they want when AI can't.
Every single industry in existence is threatened by AI. It will be the doom of humanity.
This is like the perfect tool for artists who are stuck in art block or artists who can't find the right reference pictures. But it could be a huge blow to our careers. I feel there is gonna be a huge rise in new "artists". The kind of people who will get huge followings for their talent as artists, when really they're lying about actually drawing/painting any of their works themselves. The art thieves and fakes we're already having huge problems dealing with before AI art.
hopefully they design a system where it can verify if it created the work and works would need to be verified and have the so called tick.

I've become an artist thinking AI would replace doctors, drivers, service crew, etc first but turns out we're the ones getting out of our job first.
Yeah its kinda sad how you need to show proof in the future that you made your drawing and not an AI when the drawing is good
Well it has the memory and talent of the worlds greatest artist of course it’s winning. language is the only limitation like how we can’t describe a color.
why tf do u think AI will replace doctors. You have a really bad understanding of AI then, service workers is also something late in the list of AI replacing.
@@primekrunkergamer188 doctors will be definitely replaced by AI. Much sooner than nurses. You can train an AI to do diagnostics but no one wants to be cared by robots.
As of now, it’s a cool little novelty but it can’t replace the human touch, emotion and personality of an artist
I’ve been full-time faculty teaching Visual Communication (Multimedia) for 20 years. Tools come and go. Look at the features of Photoshop compared to 10 years ago. A musician can use an extension in MIDI to make their guitar or keyboard sound like an orchestra. I tell all my students to not think of themselves as photographers, or “artists” in the sense of using a particular medium. Think of themselves as creators that use the tools available to manifest their vision. In the right hands, these will be great tools to tell compelling stories.
Also, to call it “intelligent” is a stretch. It is a tool. A fast one. The artist is the one providing the prompts, tweaking it, getting just what they want to tell the emotional story. Based on the prompts I’ve seen, it will expand the visual vocabulary of a generation of creators.
George Martin (the 5th Beatle) was just as responsible for the sound of the Beatles as the fab 4. Did he play the guitar? No. Did he write the songs? No. Did he take what the musicians created and take it to another level? Yes. Creating is often a team sport. The computer is always a part of the team.
This is how I see it ❤ Abundance
Making something clear here; it's not the technology that artists are fighting back against, but the ethics of which these AI image generations work- they steal art from artists online and include it in their data bases, teach the AI with it, and it is all without any proper consent and compensation. They don't even know that their art has been used until someone with a keen eye notices that the style "just so happens to look silimar to so- and-so's style" and tag them in it. It's just not right, and there doesn't seem to be anything that artists can do to prevent their own art being included in the data sets used to train these AI's in the first place. To use what Sam said in his video about AI, there shouldn't even be an opt-out system at all- there should be an opt-in system. Even if some artists are okay with their art being used to train AI, it should be a mutually beneficial* and consensual thing.
Great insight!
@Zach AI is dangerous, If we dont have many data or data that will destroy us then AI is our tool, they cant think or invent dangerous things, but we do have many many dangerous data and inventions that easily selfdestroy humanity
@@cjay3y But do not artists use the art of those before them to create new art without paying those previous artists for their ideas and expression?
as a growing digital artist, my dreams are crushed. when I'm older and considered a professional, this A.I would be a hundred times better and I don't see why people would need to commission art that takes days to make when anyone will be able to make whatever they want in 2 minutes with no experience.
these videos come out and everyone panics like I used too but if digital art is something serious about then at very least within your life time wont be automated. For a very long time now most major company's in all fields of art have being utilizing AI and automation but this was never to replace artists the goal almost always being to speed up the workflow or production with the assistance of AI. even without that fact artists are one most unlikely careers be fully automated statistically speaking from study's.
Bruh, if I was a digital artist this will be a dream come through. I'd be getting my hands on these programs asap.
My dreams are crushed as well..
@@BebeSoule you’re not an artist.
Same and now I feel like I wasted my time tbh… At least I still got some other ways to show my art
to me what was always fascinating about art, was the level of understanding of perspective and observation mixed with a wild imagination. the ability to see the world through a different lens, creating truly unique pieces, allowing a glimpse through someone else's view.... this is 6 descriptive words in a row. good job.
Traditional art will have increased value once this get some momentum, digital artist will have some hard time, but they will eventually find a way. As i believe you can copy artistic flair, styles from what is already available, but creative thinking will still be required to manifest your imaginations.
Until AI is self aware there isn’t a chance that it can “get creative.” It’s still the edge artists have over the AI.
Not to mention that AI usually generates an uncanny valley when it comes to people. I feel like the soullessness shows in the art.
I'm a highschool student planning to pursue art in college. Not to seem narrow-minded here, but i do fear that my plans of becoming a professional artist won't work out.
I've read a lot of different opinions about ai art and I can't really believe those people who say: "Don't worry, ai art won't ever be able to replace artists. People will still invest in hand-drawn pictures, because many would still want to receive art that is unique to that said artists style." Don't get me wrong, i do agree with that statement, but there are already a few cases where ai programmers stole the style of a paticular artist and used it to create their own ai generated images representing that exact artist's art style. Of course, this is how ai generated art is created in the first place - by feeding a machine artworks that other people drew after years and years of practice. Why should people pay thousands of dollars to commission an artist with a unique style when they can just create their own images in that exact same style? Theres no law that prevents art theft (see the samdoesarts drama) the way it works in the music industry. Artist already have it difficult enough to make a living, all ai art does is point a big middlefinger in their faces.
Of course right now ai images look pretty and impressive, honestly i cant help loving those simply beautiful images. Ai art lacks specificness though - you cant really adjust the outcome the way you could if you drew the images yourself - at least not yet.
If we've already come this far, who knows what the future will hold: many more artists will have to switch to ai art, simply because everyone else will as well. I dont think a newcommer will have any luck in the art industry, especiallly when ai art got to the point where its difficult to tell apart from hand-drawn images.
"Art is moving in a different direction" is what one comment below said, but i feel like the aspects that are unique to art - that the picture has to be drawn first to exist after years of dedication and practice - will perish. Of course people can still pursue art as a hobby, also in a professional way if they want to, but the art industry will most likely change to the more efficient and less time-consuming ai art, which will still need creative people to generate and evolve them. Although i do understand this change, i can't say im looking forward to it. Theres something about robots creating art that does not sit right with me.
It feels inhumane and unreal.
Why do we have to programm robots to replace artists? Why does everything have to be more efficient and mechanical? At least the pictures are pretty, i guess.
I would love to hear your opinion on ai art. Let's have a discussion :D
@Helio I understand your point, but i dont agree with ur argumentation. Of course there are many people who use similiar art styles. A lot of people who like a certain style try to copy or recreate them in their own drawings. That being said, theres a difference between implementing them in your own art (via drawing) and outright copying them through ai art. A persons unique style is very difficult to draw in that exact same way, whereas ai literally uses those pictures and outright copies those certain aspects. I believe theres a big difference between those two cases, hand-drawn images can never be an exact replica of a certain style - you would need the same person to achieve that, all human beings are different - whereas a robot literally copies other people`s hard work, often without their consent.
You can always be an art teacher or adviser cause it will always be a human forte in terms of process.
I like ur view - i feel pretty much the same. Seeing all this amazing ai created art makes you feel discouraged. But they lack in passion and hard work and i hope people are still seeing the worth of a hand-drawn picture and how unique it is to have a creative mind to create art by yourself.
All the best in college, show the ai a big middlefinger and keep doing what your passion is!
I agree that this is going to really affect artists as more and more people are going to enjoy making their own art very easily using AI. It is always great to be able to hang something oneself has made up upon ones wall.
I think it will never fully takeover because ai will never be able to transfer emotions into art like humans can. Ai art will probably used for businesses (like for logos) because it’s cheaper than hiring a graphic designer. But I don’t think it will ever fully takeover art in museums.
I'm not worried. Until the AI can feel a deep sense of self loathing it will never replace artists completely.
😂
Lmao
but cant take away ur clients
The satire... :)
I would love to see that.
Judging from many articles and forums, the speed of which the sentiment towards AI generated art has gone from "lol this is goofy, it looks drunk" to "AI is going to replace truck drivers but there'll still be a place for people in the creative industry" to "This is theft of work of all artists and should be banned" is astonishing, whether or not this is an existential threat has gone from pie in the sky Black-Mirror talk to reality in what feels like overnight. The future is going to be both great and terrifying, I look forward to where these all go.
I'm really having a hard time contemplating the "great" part, but I get your point.
Yes, and Stable Diffusion is another AI like Midjourney that is going to be open source. The pictures generated from the beta are even more wild, as now nudity or using famous people's faces is allowed. It's going to be crazy.
Its more funny that we care about stuff like AI and so, but the things which are a real existential threat for example the imperialism/capitalism, next to the warhungry wannabe warlords from the west and "Putin"...
Truck drivers have personally assured me that AI can't do their complicated jobs. So do not feel bad for them.
I mean it is pretty much theft from every artist in history.
Perspective from an Artist: The feelings are mixed. It is first of all utterly fascinating. I can tell you most of the results are good to amazing. This A.I. has the concept of aesthetics of a human mind really understood. It does bring art out. Amateur artists will not have the quality of designs as the A.I. can bring out. Then of course comes also the infinite quantity. As an artist, you need to hone your skills for years and even decades and usually one is very good at one thing. and good at few things. the A.I. can be good at everything. of course, the details are not perfect from the A.I. but they usually do not matter and even if, they look fit. it does make the job of an artist kind of redundant and soon companies and non-artists will lose their respect toward the human artist. a la "i can do that, too, within 20 seconds and one-click what you need a whole day or even a week. that is nothing special." I do hear the comment from people in art it is about the human and the process. well, that is a way to romanticize it from which I am not a fan. In the end, the results matter, because on average an artist and the process aren´t known anyway. the only positive thing you can have from this A.I. from an artist's perspective is, to test your ideas. But then you get into an identity crisis and start wondering if your personal imagination is even valid enough to be put down on paper with the brush. I can personally say. If you do not enjoy your own results just for them being yours and the process behind it, then it will feel just tragic. like a really bad joke. I also believe this A.I came too early into being. decades and centuries too early. Because this is the age where people can from anywhere and at any time have the tools to be creative and find the world of creative mind freedom. but this A.I. is stealing the future ahead so to say.
I recall when people saw TV's they said theatres and radio will no longer be a thing.
I recall when people saw microwaves, they said traditional cooking and using ovens will no longer be a thing.
People used to think elevators are unsafe/dangerous without an elevator operator.
What I've learned from our growing technology is that nothing is truly ever replaced, especially if the former function has a heavy footprint in our species as a whole. Even obsolete tech like retro games, VHS players, etc all have garnered a sense of uniqueness to them, giving them their distinct identity.
I feel AI generated image (whilst very impressive) is simply a tool to help add (or even inspire) new artists.
I already use AI to generate random human faces to (then) practice my photoshop skills on, without fear of using someone else's actual identity.
I imagine an inventor, an architect, or even someone needing some general concept art to be able to utilized AI generated images to bring their thoughts and ideas into a visible tangible medium.
With any new advancement in technology; It's important to not get lost in solely relying on the tech for one thing. AI generated images will have their place, but they won't fully replace that aspect of human artwork.
@@OwlskiTV sorry that is bullshit comparison. Here is a human mind in its full creative nature being replaced, and not the hands.
@@salahworx6963 but it doesn't discredit his claim that AI generated images and human artwork can coexist at the same time. People will still buy artistic and artisanal pieces from artists and artisans even when there is a more cost effective and accessible competitor. Demand and curiosity will always lead to innovation and AI generated images have more utility than just being an "artist with dirt poor rates". For example, bystanders at a scene of a crime can describe facial features of a suspect to an algorithm and create an accurate representation, near instantaneously, and allows for easy fine tuning of details of the portrait to create an precise image of an artist far better than a sketch artist. Another example would be for creating realistic images of missing persons that they do not have pictures of, parents and guardians could feed the AI portraits and pictures of the missing person as well as images of the clothes they wore to present an accurate image of what they looked like before they went missing, it can even go so far as replacing the background for the area they were last sighted in for better chances.
In short, AI image generators are advancements in technology and can be used as effective tools that can be applied to many fields such as medicine, architecture, criminology, etc. Labelling a tool that can benefit everyone as evil or of poor taste just because it serves as a good competitor for a select people's profession is absurd. Innovation will always create competition due to it reducing the amount of labor and being more accessible to people compared to the alternatives, and treating it as Armageddon is not only a slippery slope fallacy, but also extremely fucking stupid.
@@salahworx6963 Glad to see you're open to having discussions that counter (or temper) your concerns. 🙃
I'm an artist myself (graphic designer by trade), and whilst I understand the concern fellow artists may have, I don't think the reaction is the right way to handle it, given the situation.
Lynus clears up and further explains a lot of points that I am trying to make.
AI generated images isn't going to fully replace human artists. If you/others are concerned (understandably so), then I advocate that rather than thinking how much bad it'll do to your field; Think more how you can overcome or adapt with the advances we're seeing.
It's why I see it as a tool to grow my skills, rather than something that's going to snuff out my artist work or creativity as a whole.
We're humans; We've always adapted and grown as things progressed. It's easy to focus solely on the issue/concerns, but (without a solution) you're only progressively digging a deeper hole, without planning for a way out.
@@OwlskiTV i don’t think ai art will replace human art solely bc of the reason that ai art has 0 meaning and story behind it and that it lacks the soul that a individual persons work has
My honest opinion on this is that in the near future we will face less and less handmade art which gonna make it so rare to obtain and those who will keep possessing those skills and the ability to do handmade art will be very rewarded due to their authenticity. so every new thing bring new opportunity
If AI is going to replace the embodiment of a creative job, then it can replace literally anything
Wow really? How did u know
Considering humanity has been anticipating biological androids that act and feel just like humanity (the ultimate form of creation) for almost a century it shouldn't be that surprising that nothing is safe from being recreated and surpassed by technology
We’re doomed
@@zlayer4514 because creativity should be the last thing these AIs could replace. Creativity is what makes human.. a human.
we can still be creative retouching this creations and making them our own, literally the same thing happened when google images made image references available for everyone on the internet, this is just a step further into our creative minds
As a very young artist, I find this whole situation to be kind of disappointing. Growing up art has been the only thing that I've really enjoyed doing and have hoped to find a career path in. However, with all the new AI developments, it's sort of scary (and very frustrating) to know that soon anyone will be able to effortlessly create art in seconds. While I should be excited to live in a more technologically advanced world, I'm really only disappointed because of it. I just feel like amazing artistic talent will mean nothing in just a few years, and art in general won't have any value anymore. This is only my opinion and I know that everyone has different perspectives on the matter, so please don't get frustrated if you disagree :)
(EDIT): Reading everyone's replies has been very interesting! It's been fun to read the thoughts and opinions of different people. I know a lot of people highly disagree because AI developments mean that everyone will have the ability to create masterpieces without lifting a finger, but if you feel inclined to respond please take into consideration where I'm coming from. I don't comment very often and to be quite honest have very little experience receiving criticism and critique online, so please take that into consideration before replying negatively as I've seen some people have. To all the people who have responded respectfully with comments either agreeing or not, thank you!!
Please don't take my comment too seriously, this is just my opinion
I think people will always want art created by actual artists though because it's unique to that person - the way people will pay thousands for an original but you can buy a print for $5. Prints never stopped originals being worth lots!!
While all the AI images are cool, they do have an AI feel to them if that makes sense?? Or for example, I drew a map last year that no AI could ever reproduce in a million years because so many aspects of it are unique to me personally and illustrate different aspects of Middle Earth. There is a unique imprint artists have, and a _purpose,_ that machines cannot recreate :)
So don't feel disheartened, because being an artist is about your unique mark and personality - machine art does not have that same unique mark and personality!! :)
I agree with both of you here however to give another perspective there will be a time in the future where the ai would have mastered a great portion of visual representations down to the details. but as complexities become foundational then the ideas themselves would need to be the differentiator. In other words it will only be peoples minds that become the limitation. Even in this beta stage I see people telling the ai to make a cute dog. It can do it no problem. The magic happens when you include unique details that convey a theme or otherwise may have not been represented before. Today I did futuristic Japanese temples in space, dark purple and blue tones, in the style of old Japanese art , bright lights, 2 alien dragon statues on each side, hyperrealistic, --q 2 --ar 16:9. The result is honestly unworldly yet also what I imagined in my head to a degree. This almost feels like dreams. The human component of making the art will always exist tho since even if the AI becomes 10x better it wont necessarily know exactly what you want it to make in what way, but it can definitely inspire artists.
@@Vexarax Million years is very relative :) Eventually, it will be creating millions of renders a second. Or rendering whole environments live as your brain will be feeding it inputs in real-time as well. It will be crazy, different. If we are not in a simulation, we sure will be creating our own. Good luck!
@@mirusvet hah well I just don't know many people who would pay thousands of dollars for an AI printout? But at the small gallery my mum supplies, people pay thousands of dollars for paintings from artists who aren't famous by any means, and mum's small sculptures fetch between $1500 - $3000 and are often sold before the exhibition even starts, just from the photos! So I honestly think it comes down to that human touch in the art world unless someone is specifically looking for AI artwork. But why would you pay for something you can do yourself with a few clicks of a button? Whereas you know it would take you months or even years of practice to try to create the art professional artists create, and even then it won't have their unique touch.
I think if you asked someone who was genuinely into buying art they'd be pretty shocked by the idea of paying for something that anyone can do with a few clicks in an AI program, no matter how good that art looks - the art world is quite a bit more "snobby" than that, haha :)
Edit: and the map (the type of art I do) "creates itself" as I work, experimenting with different lines and forms until it looks like how it needs to "feel" - many artists work this way. They have to take their mind away from the process, it's like a meditation almost. Part of the joy would be taken completely out of the creation process if art was done solely using AI (and the same effect could not be achieved)
I should clarify I speak as someone who has sold my own art in the past though I wouldn't say I'm a professional artist as I'm working in other areas mostly. But I've been drawing all my life, and have also worked with AI programs for concept art. The process in the AI program isn't anywhere near as rewarding for me, but can be useful in certain scenarios such as for video backgrounds and to illustrate certain ideas quickly (which is what I'm doing in the video I'm working on now) ^_^
@@WestCoast4L1f3 While I agree it's amazing creating images using AI it's a different process and part of what appeals to humans about art is the human aspect - the effort and attention and time and talent it took to reach that final product.
If you can do it using clicks and by typing words in, even though the image is totally unique, a lot of the power is removed from the art for _others_ in comparison to the care and attention taken with artwork created with human hands.
There may be a market for AI art at some point, but when anyone can do it easily a lot of the magic is taken away. Whereas when you look at a piece of art and know there's no way you could have done that, I think that's really what draws you in? Especially when the person has also managed to convey something important to you or speak to you in some way through the art they spent all that time to create.
However AI art can definitely be massively beneficial in certain circumstances. For example I have aphantasia, so it could potentially be beneficial for me to create images which are totally unique using AI, then paint or draw them by hand just from looking at them. A sculptor could do the same.
For example, the picture you described sounds like it would be awesome to try to paint by hand and you could then even sell the final painting because you haven't breached anyone's copyright - the original image was yours and now you've added a human touch and talent and time to make it even more unique :D
So AI programs can definitely be beneficial in that sense and in many other ways too I'm sure. Imo it _compliments_ the true creative process but cannot replace it, as people won't ever want to spend money on something they can easily do themselves!
That's just my opinion though :)
its like they said, hey artists aren’t under payed and under appreciated enough… lets add an unbeatable competitor
Yes, an unbeatable competitor no artist can never learn to use for their own advantage because it's so godamn hard for them to learn.

Lots of great comments. For me, the defining point / question is - If we relate/ feel more connected with an ai or human. some people prefer a out of this world/ hedonistic kind of art. Whilst some others stilll prefer the raw, imperfect side of Human. I believe in art that relates and connect with another human. I'm an Illustrator / Artist/ Director myself, and I still hone traditional skills and personal expressions to connect inspire people from within.
Artist for 60 years here. I have done a few things with this and it is truly amazing if you can't easily depict something. IT HAS ITS PLACE, but is not the end all and be all.
The beauty in art is making it, taking the time and effort to create something that has meaning to you. Ai art does not by any means take anything away because it will not bring me the peace of mind I get from actually creating it. The ai art in it's own right is beautiful but it will never replace the true sense of accomplishment I feel when I create something from my own.
yes, and that is YOURS. Your thing brought to life by you, theres a connection. Even if nobody else would know or care

With that logic photography couldn't be considered an art.
For anyone feeling depressed over this:
Art is a process, just like science. It's unique to each one of us, and making mistakes means you can improve. Perfection is boring, aim to be better, seek discomfort. A.I its not our enemy, we should learn from it as we learn from each other. Artists can make any drawing, but not the same drawing
Art is our soul, our essence and our imagination. It is infinite until you limit it

That’s nice but it’s like wanting to own a newspaper company or bookstore. Sure, there’s something genuine about a nice black and white hot off the press newspaper or freshly bound novel. But unless you’re rich or are married to someone who is rich, you won’t make a living and will only allow life to beat you to a pulp. What good is it to come up with the best painting you ever have when a 5 year old or 75 year old who couldn’t care less about art can come up with something more detailed and colorful in a shorter period of time with several strokes on a keyboard?

That's the thing, I just don't feel anything when I look at these AI generated images. Because they weren't created with love, or any emotion really. Da Vinci poured years of his life into his works, as a lot of great artists do... Something generated within seconds just doesn't carry the same value to me. I mean a painters sweat can be within their canvas, that'll never be said for these images.
not true. AI will soon imitate all the human imperfections 1:1. plus artists will be secretly using AI without anyone knowing. this is a horrible time for humanity.

i honestly think this will become a tool for artists instead of a replacement, imagine having the AI make a baseline painting and then having an artist refine it, customize it, and improve it. As an artist im super excited for this technology
I'm a 3d sculptor, it really helps to expand my imagination
i mean you can most definitely do that, i have seen some people on the internet make interesting things with the help of AI but we all know most people are gonna use this as a lazy way to cash grab, i have already ran into accounts online generating images from AI and trying to sell them as prints and or proclaim that they made those pictures
@@pwnomega4562 yeah but look at it this way. Imagine a client or a company asks you to make something very specifically. AIs like this will probably get close, but they will never nail every single detail, they will only be a baseline because they lack actual consistency. it will take you less time to draw and paint it on your own as a skilled artist than to keep iterating the AI until it has what you want, specially since every iteration has to be manually reviewed. its just not efficient for professional workflow
Until it gets good enough that the client thinks you're making the AI's product worse...
@@remus4283 thing is, with so many artists in the world, it is impossible for another artist to not do a better job than an AI. we saw the same thing with textures in videogames. Before textures had to be done by hand in Photoshop, now, almost everything can be procedurally generated and then edited to refine it. if you just leave the computer to make the work for you, something everyone can do, you are no longer unique or special, so the companies would rather hire someone who can make what the AI makes better.
I'm studying art in school right now and this has just made me question why I'm spending so much money learning a skill that a computer can generate for a client for free and a thousand times faster than I can.

The production mindset cares not for your years of practice and artistic discipline or talent.
But that's how the world works. Just like how you wouldn't care that the brewery that makes your favourite beer fired most of their works after they automatize their process - as long as the taste & price remains similar.
Sure, we can talk about the meaning of the artwork which is absent in the AI works. But frankly, 95% of the folks who aren't so into art wouldn't care - as long as the "taste" and price remains comparable or even better.
Do not forget - AI work has won art competition, which mean that someone good with the software can potentially generate artwork that far surpasses average artists.
@@cnaizhen 100% agree. I'm an artist but not by trade. I'm a Software engineer who dabbles in traditional art practices for fun not profit. BUT HAVE made money with art before. As such... I DO feel a little sadness for those who do make a living by the way of the brush.
I like to think There will always be a niche market somewhere for a person who can produce art the good ole analogue organic way. But who knows?? ...
Also I cant help but get the looming sense of dread that this occurrence were discussing - (AI taking the art away form humans) or even the perfect Beer being created by a digital algorithm opposed to a garage brewer with a passion for hops.
I see this all as a microcosm of what is pending.
ALL of our humanly professions.. Coders, Debuggers, builders, engineers, even comedians... ETC will inevitably will be digitally replaced.

@@RoboGoby it's great that you are a software engineer because I have a question:
In my uninformed mind, I'm thinking that the machine learning that the AI bots use requires some form of seed artworks to generate new art. An analogy of my understanding is that the AI bots can improve on car manufacturing based on existing cars, but unable to invent an airplane - is this the right understanding?
I'm just thinking that there will still be a small demand for human art no matter what, but if human art dies off to be replaced by AI art mostly, the overall development of art will plateau.
And on your concerns, I fully agree that it is very valid. It already started with the advent of technology and AI automation will escalate the progress at a much more rapid rate. We of this generation will be forced to adapt, like it or not, some of our livelihoods will get affected.
From the macro point of view though, the world will still run. Countries cannot afford to have their people replaced by AI fully because that's bad for the economy. There will be a breakpoint that needs to be found.
Edit: Technically, if everyone's needs can be taken care of by AI, doesn't that mean that 95% of the population can live as happy farm animals who will not need to work. While this sounds really bad the way I put it, it is kinda close to the state of utopia since people will be stress free with their needs met.
@@cnaizhen you are right. It needs a Seed but not because it can not generate its own imagery more that it simply needs some baseline properties to adhere to.
The possibilities are "infinite" for lack of a better word regarding what it can generate.
A baseline image would be required to funnel its variables down to requested specifications.
When left to its own devices it can generate imagery that may make no sense to us.
We innately unconsciously will categorize imagery based on visual queues but may come up empty handed with out providing a base reference.
The AI literally has to "Dumb down" its output results in some cases to generate an image that our minds will relate to.
Michio kaku once said it would be no different than teaching calculus to an Ant.
there are things that The AI can show us visually but we simply cant make sense of them based on our reality.
AI not limited to lived experiences for its refence pool. We have natural instinctive attractions towards symmetry and colors based on our innate program/drive to procreate, nurture, conquer, eat, ETC. the AI does not operate off of any of this despite having all of this information at its disposal. So for artistic reference its up to us to provide these and from there it can generate something simplified to our liking.
do you think he meant AI as in "Adobe Illustrator"?
I don’t know how to exactly describe my feeling for this one. But if I was to be precise, I feel like if this bot entered a contest with professionals it’ll score top5 constantly. And this is seriously something that graphic designers of all have to worry about, even power point manages to make simple designs. Now imagine that and crank it up hundred times, it’s not pleasant but if you don’t find a way to use it for your advantage you’ll end up being irrelevant.
Not entirely. There will be a new profession of people that specialise in using these types of bots to get consistent styles to the customer's (contractor's) demands

I think the process of learning artistic skill, creativity, and especially tuning in to inspiration is incredibly meaningful. This is a fascinating tool but I'm afraid our technology is eroding meaning. Perhaps I am too pessimistic.
I believe meaning can be derived from any experience or process. The human mind will continue to be inventive, creative and curious. Photography did not cause artists from painting. It lead to reinvention of art.
@@RobLanderos I hope you are right! I suppose the creativity and the idea still reside in the human mind. I appreciate your positive attitude, I can get pessimistic about technology.
@@ceruleanswim what will probably happen is that there will be a place for all forms of art like any medium. AI art will probably just be a medium.
It does seem like it's happening. At the same time, I feel that technologies like this is making true learned art rare, and more valued.
Ultimately AI like Dall-e and Midjourney only serve as a conduit for our ideas, without us feeding any info to the system it's just like any tool in the drawer waiting to be used to create something.
I was once in the boat that AI couldn't replace humans when it came to creativity... I feel I've been proven wrong, and now it's only a matter on time where you give an AI a plot idea and it writes an entire script or novel.
I feel genuinely threatened by it. This stuff is taking a job that should be reserved for only the human mind. I think any form of arts (and I use “art” as broadly as possible, including music and philosophy) should be entirely human. The most dangerous and repetitive jobs should be automated. Like working at the bottom of the ocean or factory work. But art is something inherently human.

AI's are incredible. They are also built by the exploitation of every artist that has come before, having never would have existed if it were not for existing art. AI is not only ingesting the images of artists, it is also ingesting what prompts people use to create art and learning from what is most popular. Prompting doesn't make you an artist simply using another tool. It makes you a blip of static in an ocean of white noise. What this holds for the future is hard to say but I would guess that Syndrome from the Incredibles had it pegged - "When everyone's super, no one will be."

Today I typed a dragon made of sapphire roaring and surrounded by lightning...it came no where close. In fact it merged the 2, so I believe you're safe my friend.
You could even draw a sketch and let the AI finish it
As scary as it is I can see a very bright future with this AI and a very grim future with this AI. I can see many of this type of ai being used for inspiration for movies, art, and create things we can't imagine that we will soon see in all types of media. But I also see big companies instead of paying a studio or person or artist, they will just pay these AI companies to make something for them and not even use actaul artist.

As someone who isn't pursuing art, I might not be able to speak properly on this topic. However, I'd be more wowed if a normal person actually made it instead of an A.I. since it's very boring and lazy if an A.I. did it. When I say boring and lazy, I don't mean to say that A.I. art lacks in detail or something is missing because I do think what was shown in the video looks really nice. I mean to say that it's boring because it's created with no real effort. Something that makes art good is that a lot of time and effort was put into actually creating the piece. No matter how genuine the A.I. may be programmed, it can never truly be the same in comparison to the amount of time and effort a normal person actual puts to create art. You gain nothing but a pretty image.
So while the A.I. may be "more efficient", in this context it just ends up diminishing in value because of this. A.I. can't truly replace artists unless people try to use A.I. in that way.

Well, storytelling is something that GPT3 can already do, even if it's not the best, it will only get better.
It's definitely a whole new beast. The best visual artists of the future may very well be people who are gifted in wordplay, capable of writing incredibly complex word prompts. It's both interesting and scary. Interesting if you are one of these people good with words, scary if you're a pure visual artist who's not good at explaining your vision other than drawing it yourself. The question is, can this replace old-fashioned, hand drawn art? And more importantly, won't this dilute the worth of artworks in general? We're already submerged with great images, this is going to increase that ten-fold. What then? Will art still have any value? Won't people simply create their own to put on their wall or use in their projects? That's what worries me the most personally.

@@misterwhyte Yea..democratization of art. It does allow for realization of ideas...I'm sure many people have great ideas but nowhere near the skills to do anything about it...great for most people, not so great for many artists in that sense.
However it's a great tool for artists too..they can brainstorm with the AI and just polish up the result, spending like 1/10 of the time it used to take. Eventually that would lead to a higher expectation in output rates and lower prices of course..so yea..it's a mixed bag.
@@Moctop That's true, I can see how it could help some artists polish their vision or get new ideas from the AI and run with it themselves. Personally, I'd suggest anyone who works in visual art to start learning these tools ASAP. A solid head start could make all the difference in a few years when this becomes more prominent. I've been toying with it for an hour now and it's far from being as easy to use as you could think at first glance.
It's unpredictable what's going to happen in the future and scary too. Honestly, I don't know what will happen. But one this seems to be sure, true old fashioned art will become rare, and hence, more valued. Just as handcrafted luxury goods have a league of it's own, so will true art.
18:30 "Imagine how you would feel if somebody copies your command and creates the exact same thing."
Can't help but laugh at the irony in that statement. Imagine how the artists themselves that have their work assimilated into the AI's algorithm without their consent feel. Whether or not you agree or disagree with the direction of AI art you gotta admit that's a pretty silly statement. It's just a prompt. You aren't doing any hard work. Getting upset over someone else using your prompt is incredibly petty
Lol typical whiny tech bro right there. They do the same thing but worse towards artists but can't handle it if it happened to them
As amazing as the program is, it reminds of when George Lucas scored the initial cut of Star Wars for John Williams to listen to, to get an idea of what Lucas was looking for musically. Williams liked the pieces Lucas chose, scratched his head when Lucas said he was planning on just using the classical pieces he already used, and then asked "Wouldn't you prefer something specifically tailored to the movie, rather than a rehashed piece of music that many have already associated their own feelings to?" Lucas said give it a try, the rest is film history. Meaning, A.I. can get close to a creative idea, it may point you in the right direction creatively, or even give you inspiration, but only humans can listen to other humans and give them exactly what they are looking for. I'm a musician, writer, and visual artist. I have absolutely no fear of technology or A.I. doing anything but enhancing my creativity.
We will see
Hi, it seems you're missing the point. This new AI stuff jas definitely already attracted the attention of all sorts of businesses by now, and I think it's reasonable to think they will benefit first before it reaches the masses. So this means it will get even harder for aspiring artists (i.e everybody else than in your example, which is an exceptional case and does not represent the majority of artists). It will give you more inspiration for sure but if you are actually trying to make it as an artist make no mistake, it's about to get harder than ever. Both musicians and visual artists will be affected. Least affected will probably be artisans/handcrafters, so far robots aren't good at knitting and even 3d printers haven't taken off yet.
@@V1CCZ3XX Honestly, I really don't understand your point, unless you are talking in hypotheticals. I've created over 2000 images with Midjourney. NONE of the images have given me what I wanted to see, but have rather danced around my requests though hundreds of iterations. And still, not exactly what I'm looking for. Just random approximations. If you're saying Ai will take the place of low level concept artists who have no real talent, then I agree. But people with talent will always succeed. And who is to say that artists deserve to make a higher standard of living than the programmers making these programs? That is like telling Henry Ford he was not allowed to make the auto, because horse dealers would make less. Technology advances and people adapt. They always have. We have more connections in each or our brains than stars in the sky, and yet people worry about human resilience in the face of technological changes? I love the 80s, but I don;t want to live in the 80s for the next 1000 years. Whatever technology brings, humankind and economy will change with it.
@@lodrezzon This right here is exactly why I’m not worried. AI is great and improving quickly, but it just cannot match the ability for humans to communicate exactly what they want to each other and figure out what the images in our heads are. AI excels in giving concepts, like environments and basic character elements, but ask it to create emotion, or lay out an intricate scene with many pieces, or draw the same character in multiple diverse poses while keeping them looking like that character (famous characters like Jack Sparrow might be an exception, I’m not sure) and the AI struggles. A lot. It cannot come close as of now. Maybe at some point in the future, this will be possible, but with how long it’s taken AI to get as far as it is currently, that’s not anytime soon. And even once it reaches that point, it will take a whole new skill to unlock its potential by knowing what words to say, and what images to enhance and how. It’s not nearly as simple as “this new tool is going to replace everything!” It never is. There’s nuance, and new skills that are brought to the table. There are skills that won’t fully translate into this new tool either. Not for a long time, at least.
So, imo, everyone needs to chill on this fear-mongering, doomsday crying about art dying. Art has been around since the very beginning. Mediums change with time, mainly new ones being added, and while old mediums are rarer to see, they never go away. That’s the nature of art, and how intrinsic it is to us as humans. Sure, corporations will be satisfied with basic imagery. But storytelling? Bringing to life the uniqueness in our own minds? That’s not going away, and I doubt it ever will.
@@lodrezzon what e's trying to say is companies who commission artists to draw basic logos or art, or companies who hire people to produce art for websites, will no longer need to pay people every time they need designs, or even artist who make paintings or graphic art for paying customers they will go under because misdjourney offers free/cheaper art (with the trail of 10-25 pictures) which comes out almost instantly after inputting your prompt. This too is the very beginning of AI art, With better Processers, Storage for even more AI learning and better code, Art created by humens could become lost. But I understand your points AI (as of now) cant capture the true emotions and display it as an picture.
I mean, art isn't just something that looks pretty. It's the thought and ideas and the personality that went into something that count for an actual piece of work. While AI-gen is pretty fucking cool, I just don't see it replacing humans.
People dont really commission freelance artists because of the personality and soul put into the art, they do it because of how the art looks
@@KreepyBeepy But they do though. When you hire a freelancer, you do so because you have seen their works and like their style. Furthermore, unlike AI, artists are actually capable of abstract analysis and understanding of "taste" which would be absent in AI works.
@@KreepyBeepy hasn't got a clue about art
@@DailyCorvid I consider myself an artist, actually. Ive never commissioned anyone before, mostly because I cant. The point is that I was just giving my personal thoughts about it. No need to be an ass
@@mon0lithic629 They see a style they like and a person who can make it. When AI can do the same, you really think people would flock to a freelancer instead of an AI program that can do it in seconds for little to no cost?
I want an art. I want something I like. Doesn't matter who or what made it as long as I'm happy with the result. and I think most people will think that way. So when AI can do it at precision... Who would pay an artist?
Even though this won’t replace artists completely, I can see most employers using this over human artists for graphic design, concept art, etc. It’ll be cheaper, much faster, and less troublesome. No contracts, no paperwork, no risk of lawsuits, no pension, no wage, no medical benefits.
Plagiarism was already a problem out of laziness and this enables that beyond 110%.
I’d say this is mostly bad for artists. Human-made art will be reduced to a novelty aka rare aka small. And no one can tell the difference.
It cannot be original but most people don’t care about originality. They think they do, but when the real world pressures an employer with time, originality becomes unimportant.
Yeah no, this would be good for getting concepts and just some general reference, that's hints at what you want, but you've already created an image in your mind that is far closer to what you want, the trouble is getting the image from your mind to reality.
I'd say that this would become a pretty decent tool for artists to use, and enable more people to get into it, but other then streamlining the process of conceptualising, an actual peace of work, it'll just be used for generic logos and graphics. Yet even then all this is doing is pulling from everything we've made and done, and compiling a bunch of shit together to met the key words inputted.
@Jon yeah idunno if I believe they top tier
"Human-made art will be reduced to a novelty aka rare aka small." Why do you not have your own actual analysis instead of using other people's? Seriously you people are like sheep. This is just a tool. Adapt if it becomes a problem.
@@shmillbe3390 it will be good for hobbyists, bad for professionals looking for jobs.
@Jon "Programmers have surpassed artists" meaning programmers have stolen thousands of pieces of art as training data without crediting the artists.
As an independent digital artist, all are tools to me. It's definitely a two edged sword, to which the sharpest edge is to be most likely wielded by industry at their whim. Much like corporations. As I've been viewing the artwork that's been generated, and it didn't take long for me to see that there's still something very standardized about it. To me, no matter how stunning the work appears, there's something still underlining the work that's missing, like it's too sterile. It's the same thing I noticed when the audio industry was transitioning from analog to digital sound. Digital sound was much thinner because it was taking actual sound waves and converting them into digital data that was intended for duplication, because using cassette tape loss sound quality with each pass and digital didn't. But look at how far digital audio has come now. The time of analog recording studios being common have long passed. But have audio engineers dropped off the planet, no... And recording studios still exist. Do I believe AI Art is going anywhere... No. To the contrary, it's just beginning. I've seen this debate play out before. First in a major audio studio, when ProTools was first coming out the great debate. Then in cinema, out with super 8 and telecines, in with DVR. Hell, land lines vs cell phones... You get what I mean. The point I'm making here is this, with each change that's come, we as people adapt and find ways to make these changes still work for us, ESPECIALLY ARTIST. Did the conversion from analog to digital completely destroy recording studios, no, they still exist. Did the introduction of drum machines kill off drummers, no, they incorporate them in their sets even. Did digital mixers, kill off dj's, again no. You've got dj's that have transferred their turntable skills into their MacBook's and are doing both. I can go on and on. Artist can never be erased, because it's the one area that truly holds no real confined definition in the first place. Art is expression, and in my opinion, the power to create was never meant to be industrialized anyway.
hey i like your opinion can tell me more about this?
Run Lola Run, a title of a movie that never left my brain, with all respect to the movie story and
artwork creativity, I don't remember the content because I had a bad accident head trauma 1 year after
the movie release, but I still remember Run Lola Run and that's what I call ART!!!!!!!Run Lola Run
As second real time experience, Russian Ark movie that made me travel through time
while I was sitting in Cinema Village in NEW YORK City, "I don't do drugs" and that Russian Ark dragged me
me to another dimension, the feeling of being in that time of history!!!!!!!!!!just me.
AS 3rd, My eyesight shivered looking at Picaso Paintings in the MET, felt something unique that couldn't be described in words, but none the less I can say, I was able to cross the 3D dimension of existence and see the Beauty of Picasso Artwork expressions in shapes and colors, again, unique moment of ART appreciation no more no less.
I haven't seen, AND WILL NEVER SEE enough beauty by the CREATURE in colors, shapes AND momentum melted with time as the 4th dimension in within LIKE ONE BREATH AT THE TIME OF APPRECIATION,
As far as know I am the Greatest critic of my own view of appreciation of art,
I will never discuss the GREATEST ARTWORK OF THE CREATURE TO GIVE ME THE CHANCE TO EXPRESS MY OPINION IN THE ROAM OF ART.
@@ulysart1805 Run Lola Run I LOVED that movie!!!! I don't know to many ppl that even saw or remember it
@@ayushmishra-mg9dz Sure! What more would you like to know?
In a reality where multiple realities can happen at the same time, stay true to yourself; and you will never be replaced -- everyone has something to offer - to all the artists out there, believe in yourself, I believe in you.
As an Artist ,my friends, that's the door to Hell, the only way to prove that you are an original will be to show the process by filming it.
If it was crappy I wouldn't be scared of the Artist's future, but it actually top quality...As many people said Industry or clients don't care as as it meets their needs.
I see very soon that sculpture is the next step, A.I generated then 3d printed. This is the end...
I guess it's time for those talentless hacks to begin putting effort into their art. I think this is fantastic. Sometimes the human imagination is poorer than dust.
@@kissaninja9700 spoken like a true talentless hack lol
Crybaby
I've been thinking this exact same thing... it makes me wonder if poeple / consumers will get tired of digital art (because anyone can now do it) and go back to analogue, e.g. traditional artists & illustrators who show the whole process behind their work
@@mttpul9843
That's an interesting thought that I hadn't considered, but ya, it would make sense for those who want actual, person made art to shift to wanting physical art such as paintings, wood carvings, and the like, as they, while fakeable, can't just be printed
Artists are not just about skill but also the philosophy that directs the skills. Skills might be replaced by A.I. art platforms but the philosophy that governs the artistic creations is still sourced from richness and intensity of human experiences. A. I. is excellent platform for artists to expresses more articulately. They are what calculator is to a mathematician.
I love the way you say Van Gogh. I've visited the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam back in the 90s - the most impressive works of his was before he lost his mind. Also his many journals and letters to his brother Theo. They removed a lot of his works now as the paper was oxidizing.
As an artist myself I find this to be absolutely amazing but also scary as well. I went to college for art and didn’t finish because it’s just too expensive. Us artists put so much effort in to our art and strive to be better. AI coming in and doing stuff within a few minutes makes it very frustrating. You won’t be able to tell whose art is legit and who’s art is AI anymore. A lot of people could lie and say they did some master piece when they in fact did not. I don’t know how to feel about it though I might make a separate account and make AI generated stuff but also keep my regular stuff because art isn’t truly art unless every stroke is from your own brush. I don’t think AI can take away production artist jobs though. I don’t see that going away I have to use a physical paintbrush everyday for that.
Just adapt.
@@samuelfraktal1778 it's simply not that easy. "Just adapting" isnt how life works, it's going to be incredibly difficult and sometimes, you just can't. The art industry is already super competitive and relentless, adding the element of ai, most if not almost all artists would struggle finding work and fail to succeed. Art takes so much time to improve but ai can make "masterpieces" in mere seconds and will only improve at rapid speeds. Because artists are human, they simply can't compete or keep up. Of course human-made art will have more value placed into it but likely, only the best of the best or the most well known artists will ever receive any sort of success from that. Big companies would also likely not hire human artists anymore either since it's more expensive and less convenient.
@@milk-qh5zzNow you understand how lumberjacks felt
i dont think this is the end of artists, i think its a begining for something truely special.
Its the end of artists... I made a bottle label for some bottles i sell (alcoholic brew) with a graphic made by this AI according to what i needed and wanted to see, rather than pay for an artist to create one.
This is the end of artists as much as digital photography was the end of film photography
@@beepIL the way i see it is that in the near future the bar for the expected standard level of quality is going to rise drastically so that you still need artists to use these tools to get better results than youd ever get.
@@beepIL As the end of doctors, programers, everything
@@starcultiniser The problem is that ai gets better.
@@bemlok yes, A.I gets better, but it still needs a persons direction, an artists direction and imagination, the time when A.I no longer needs any direction (which is still a while off) is probably when human augmenting will be taken seriously.
I had actually hoped that there was a limit to how easy it would be to make art
But I guess this is how it ends
Not with a bang, but with a wimper
I've been addicted to Mid Journey for the past 3-4 days.. this is a huge game changer.
It is very addicting. I have been a MidJourney collective member for several months. What I do with the art is I further enhance it in After Effects and Photoshop. So much fun.
Are you currently in the discord? I've checked the links but they're not available. Is is possible to have an invite from a member of it?
@@novamorphex how does it work? And do they have voice chat in that server?
@@novamorphex I am currently out of invites. They only give us a few to avoid overload on the servers.
Yes! I was thinking the exact same thing. Can't wait to start adding animation, parallax and fx to things it generates. And it's funny because recently I've been really wanting to collaborate with artists doing a very similar thing, but it's so hard to find an artist that would be willing to collaborate like that.
@@JaromTV I am new motion graphics and sfx designer student myself. My hopes align with in using this program along with after effects. good luck on the journey
I tried this and it was fun for the themes I wanted, which was: dark and freakish.
It turned out well. I can see it being great for inspiration.
Sometimes artists have to prove that they actually made the art.
Using this technology would totally invalidate you.
Just use it for roughs and concept art.
How and where can I try it?
I want to know as well!
Same
I just joined the Midjourney channel today and all I can say is oh my god, it's amazing. I have always wanted to create art based on ideas from my own imagination but I have zero artistic talent. I have created a couple of images already and cannot believe how incredible this is. It's not a replacement for those super talented people out there who can create images from scratch using any material they want, but for someone like me, this is incredible!
If u enjoyed midjourney sign up for dall e 2. Which is basically a better version of midjourney and their image always have Personality (like different posture, Pose, Pose stances, Camera angle, etc) I tried both and my god DALL e just blew midjourney. mind u Midjourney was trained with 400 millions images while Dall e 2 is trained with 3 BILLIONS(and it was made by elon musk)
It feels like a steal. This fulfillment should be reserved to those who put in the hard work. It makes years of sweat and commitment to no use.
@@LeafyTheLeafBoy Elon Musk does not create stuff, he only fund it and talk about it. Give him credit for popularizing stuff, not for creating stuff.
You have channel link?
And then what? A machine created a few soulless pictures based on a few words you had in mind. No proccess involved no hardship no pain, but also no satisfaction. What do you do now with the pictures? Maybe you are excited now but see how you get bored in the matter of a few hours. And also, i dont think anyone got the whole thing they want to create already in mind, every detail planned. I think it comes together by creating and the process, you get inspiration with every small brush stroke or every dot you paint. But this takes everything away.
This. This video 7 months ago was the one that flipped it for me, the power of AI, the one that made me convinced AGI is coming soon, the one that made me think this thing has no limits.
This video woke me up 7 months ago.
As a young artist, it sure feels great that I might never get to work with art because someone somewhere decided that art, of all the other things out there, should be automated first.
You know, art? That job _no one takes just to pay the bills,_ but because of passion and love?
Yeah, thanks for that, developers. I guess I'll just never get to follow my passion. Thanks for crushing my childhood dreams.
Said developers will patting selves on the back will also be eaten alive as there's no limit to AI. AI doesn't need developers to write programs. Pandoras box opened and its running like a river.
As an old school designer I started pre computers when we had to type set and cut and paste manually. When computers came along everyone predicted we would all be out of work. Years later as things evolved I’m still here and so are all the other designers who learn’t to adapt with the new tools. So please stop panicking! A.I is just another tool. I love the A.I in photoshop it saves me a lot of time, but I’m still in the drivers seat not the A.I. This is an amazing tool and I’m sure some users will use the art it creates as is and sell it to the masses to make money. That’s not what designers, concept artists and illustrators create. We have to follow a brief or art directors instructions, it’s not random as in A.I. I believe A.I will enhance our creations and ideas but at the end of the day it’s just programming and coding it doesn’t think for itself.
I see some hope
bro your thinking as replaceable tools look at it in the perspective of the artist who wants to sketch when there is AI that can sketch for you who want to draw when AI can draw for you , so you cant see it as a tool the AI is the one thats doing it for you , its not you by any means but in your case its still you in the job so you cant compare those two , i take hours just to draw a realistic arts this can even actually make artist disappear cause peoples like perfection and they will always chose AI correct me if am wrong but this is what i think
Up until the AI understands the brief. Designers and copywriters will work closer than ever.
The trouble is, this is not a tool, it something completely different.
@@sparkplug964 i agree with you man its scary how the ai are going to replace every profession available to humans. I have not been for too long in this industry and one thing i know that this ai is going make million of designer and artists jobless. I have worked few times with another designers on a project and we take our time to think imagine and create something but this ai changes the stuff as we know. Its scary.
A BIG misconception about this technology is that it "thinks" by itself. This is nothing but pattern recognition of large image data sets that raises some ethical questions like: Why are this corporations charging to generate images based on art from artist that DID NOT consent to be used in their data sets?
it's basically a photobash of a very large library of pictures and digital art. Its neat and could be useful for some companies that already have a large bank of digital art data.
ALL art is inspired by something else before it. Often by other art.
This is no different.
@@leahsavoie3528 absolutely not lol.
Please read the papers. You'd be surprised.
@@ThoseWhoHeedTheCall Its not about the art I think. The Ai most likely just steals pictures from others and adds it to its dataset. if you want to use it commercially I think you would have to have trained the AI with prictures you have the rights to.
Of course you could argue that for a human too in a way but the training set needs to exist so there could be prove that a certain picture was in it that it didn't have rights to. You can't do that with a human
true, So there might be issues in the future with artists requesting to pull their art from the data pool?
Bro you neeeeeeeed to do audio books and sleep stories. You’re such a good energy.
Honestly I don't think this will overtake the art industry, at the end of the day we are just humans, when we draw, we experience feelings and emotions which are hard to explain, we become happy and proud when he have drawn something nice, and the more we draw the more better we get, you get more creative and look forward to the next time you draw. It's so many things that makes drawing pleasant, it's not about the final picture, it's about what you did in order to achieve that picture, if you write a text and then an AI draws it for you, you didn't have to work hard for it, so there is no reward. If there is no reward, where is the fun? I think humans are not capable of everything being automated and done for you with no effort put in, that is just not in our nature. I think this will being a relevant thing for a while and people will get bored of it.
Maybe, but it will oversaturate the art market and lower the appreciation for art. Also companies will definitely use this because it is the most efficient thing.
@@Val-kj5wn i agree that it will probably effect the market, but the love of drawing as a hobby will not
@@Val-kj5wn the appreciation for art is already at an alltime low anyway, intsagram being saturated with mediocrity at all times. i fail to see how this changes that. people with good taste will continue to find good artists and support them.
Repent and follow Jesus my friend! Repenting doesn't mean confessing your sins to others, but to stop doing them altogether. Belief in Messiah alone is not enough to get you into heaven - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Contemplate how the Roman empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years to accomplish the religion of the Israelites C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate though because you can start a relationship with God and have proof. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life. - Revelation 3:20
Revelation has been unfolding since Jesus died. The Popes have claimed to be equal to God and set themselves in Jesus' place (antichrist(s)). Vatican City (Which is its own nation BTW) have risen up to fulfill the role of the false prophet
Regarding the man of lawlessness or antichrist, 2 Thessalonians 2:4 says “Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” The restrainer that the Apostle Paul was referring to in 2 Thessalonians was the Western Roman Emperor, who held back the Popes from taking power. Once the last Western Roman Emperor was removed from power in 476 AD, the Pope was given civil and ecclesiastic authority over Rome; healing the deadly head wound of the beast in Revelation 13, as they took the Emperors title of Pontifex Maximus, leader of the church and state.
“We may according to the fullness of our power, dispose of the law and dispense above the law. Those whom the Pope of Rome doth separate, it is not a man that separates them but God. For the Pope holdeth place on earth, not simply of a man but of the true God.” (Source: “Decretals of Gregory IX,” Book 1, chapter 3.)
Pope Pius V blasphemed, “The Pope and God are the same, so he has all power in Heaven and earth.” (Source: Pope Pius V, quoted in Barclay, Cities Petrus Bertanous Chapter XXVII: 218.)
Pope Leo XIII declared, “We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty.” (Source: Pope Leo XIII Encyclical Letter, June 20, 1894)
The antichrist sea beast of Revelation points to the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, who controlled the Roman beast for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD.
Daniel 7:25 says “And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.” The Popes of Rome spoke against Elohim and proclaimed to be God. They reigned for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. during which they caused tens of millions of saints to be killed.
The Pope’s title is Vicar of Christ, which in Latin is ‘Vicarius Filii Dei’, and equates numerically to the number 666
@@fnix6636 Look what happened to pottery - once machines were able to accomplish it, the industry for people AND THE HOBBY both eroded to near nonexistence.
