Generative AI kinda feels like going to the lengh of buying a brand new piano only to press the "demo" button to play a little tune and proceeding to call yourself a pianist... wth
Consumers can now sell shits made by AI or no more need real artist work cuz of AI, and cherry on the cake, AI steal artists works from the "internet world". Basically internet or AI arent bad but are always used in wrong ways or for egoists purposes, in my opinion, if we cant give a knife to a 5 years old, we shouldn't leave theses tools free of access on humanity since they proven being 5years old in generality and their insane side is origin of all problems. I know i sound extrem, but im just being realistic.
Some consumers have been mocking artists who've requested that they don't ask for AI art *in their style* because that dataset was scraped off the internet. If the law doesn't get involved, nothing will change.
My company thought they could replace me with ai so I quit during a huge project, I was the team lead, and had advanced knowledge on all the tools. They ended up losing a massive client because they couldn't deliver the quality they needed, and eventually wanted to hire me back. I increased my salary by 30k and got to negotiate my full contract so I have ownership of all my created works.
Images. Unless AI has become sentient it's producing images not art. As artists we need to change the framing of this problem. Humans make art. Computer programs make images.
That's a good way to put it, but the sad part is the average consumer won't care. That's why AI art discourse and information is almost entirely encapsulated in art community spaces where artists or people who respect artists share a platform. So in the end, the framing or name we give the problem doesn't really fix it when the underlying problem is how disrespected artists are
I certainly agree. I don't even understand the concept of consuming AI generated content as though it has some reason to exist. Of course that won't stop corporations from making money off images, video, or songs generated by AI, and calling it art.
@@mertensiam3384 Lets be honest, the 'average consumer' has no idea what constitutes art anyway. They paid to see 1,400 Marvel films. The real problem I see is that companies don't care if it's partially incoherent, or lower quality, just so long as it's cheaper. And of course if they can eliminate human artists, they can eliminate every other job imaginable.
@@dmwalker24 even some artists themselves have been using gen ai and support it's use if it makes them laugh. And I just look at them thinking "don't they realize that this is training the model? Don't they realize that by using ai to make that one baby with giant shoes, they're training ai to make videos of real babies?" People in general truly don't care about shit if it's cheap or makes them laugh, and it's concerning
couldn't have said it better! us artists really need to start having in confidence in the skills and creativity that we have, even though I know it's easier said than done. imo all these slop generators are the consequence of a society not really appreciating the arts and the cultural value it actually has and it doesn't help when we put ourselves down too in the process.
As an art student seeing all of the AI takeover develop so fast has been extremely overwhelming, this video actually helped me do something about it and protect my art instead of passively seeing it all get worse
1. Cancel any Adobe account. 2. Use only Open Code apps like Blender Instead. 3. Replace Adobe apps with non suscription apps like Affinity ones. 4. Take photos of your artwork on your screens devices like she explains. 5. Save your artwork in USB only don't share them in clouds nor social media. This is for interview purposes. 6. Don't fear, AI is only a tool we can defeat, is not the end of Artist. Tradicional Painters for example survives the photography age, digital Art age, and now the web3.0 and AI age also for sure. They are like sharks, sharks survives many extinctions without any change.
Like, corporations are obviously going to do whats cheaper but i hope that audiences will continue to spot AI art and critique its use and ethics (or lack thereof) so that it isnt profitable
Normal people don't care. Those who work a full time job but want to do art as well, will turn to ai out of convenience. look at some who call themselves musicians who only use ai to "make" music, they will bang out a number 1 hit in a few hours instead of days. I have been using suno to experiment, but my prompting comes from music theory and feeding ai with lyrics then prompting it to do a blues shuffle in key of B minor a male vocals using chords C D Bm D ect.. gives you what you want eventually. its like when using chord generators or note generators ect.. It helps creating a unique work of art. trying to prompt strumming patterns don't work or at least I haven't found a way to make it work. I guess it will eventually. I have used Logic pro drummer for years in creating music, because i'm not going to pay a drummer, I have experienced putting a band together, its hard work. I would rather be creative in my spare time than trying to figure out a time a band can get together to finish music. I might one day be able to tour and hire temp musicians to play the instruments I need like bass and drums.
its scary yeah, i honestly dont now if i should start an animation course like i dreamt of if next year a new ai animator comes out and im wasting years in uni. its sad but what can one do?😊😀
@@yeswoo4452 i literally saw people who just use canva make 6 digits. You can still follow your dreams and earn from it, you just have to be strategic when approaching it.
Well people don’t really have a choice in feeding the machines cuz the corps do it regardless. People just have to be vocal abt how much they hate the machine and never accept it as “okay”
And people will still be able to draw. The only issue of all these butthurt artists is that they will lose their easy money from making images... No one will stop them from drawing, but they don't really care about it, just the economic aspect of it.
@@OnigoroshiZeroUh duh... Would you like to work for free? If you work in IT would you like to be fired and go broke because your boss decided that they would prefer an AI to you? Of course you won't be happy even if you enjoy computer stuff. Nobody likes doing stuff for free.
The shitty thing about Adobe's "clarification" is that they didn't re-update the terms of service. I'm hoping AI-prompted images are just a gimmick and they go away once viewers see that they're kinda trash and the datasets are run dry. Nightshade feels like the better option to combat this because AI is being pushed so, so heavily by shareholders in these companies and businesses. They want people to buy into their AI products as a "solution" to... Really, just not paying artists (like illustrators and photographers). They need to see that artists who don't consent to their works being used without permissions will take action when things like copyright laws and licensing haven't caught up to the digital age. I love the big fuck-you to the data training. We need more legislation. We need businesses to fear their consumers because they really are at the whim of what consumers want and use.
You “hope” viewers will see? You mean the same viewers who pay top price for a piece of cardboard and artery clogging plastic McDonalds calls a burger? You’re delusional if you think anyone can rely on the public.
I do voiceovers and it’s so insulting when you make mistakes and people go “I can get cheaper and better from AI” like people don’t naturally breathe or stutter. the imperfections make us human
And that's exactly why I want to hire humans. Their voices' "imperfections" are what I'm looking for. I have to use ElevenLabs for a placeholder in a project I'm doing. As soon as I get money from crowdfunding, I'll replace it with human voice actors. I hate that robotic crap without breathing sounds.
@@Synthesia-ef7hj Yes, imperfections are definitely needed to some degree to create a more organic aesthetic, as opposed to synthetic "perfection" that can come across as ugly. I'm pretty sure he is referring to imperfections that create an organic feel. Consider 2D animation, for example. Even today, 3D animation often struggles to capture the organic quality that 2D animation achieves. From an organic perspective, a purely synthetic aesthetic can appear dull.
@@Synthesia-ef7hj my point was that sometimes people want such crystal clear audio with no hint of accent, which is when hard for most people due to cultural and regional differences. For example, I had a client who would send me AI references for how they thought English words/slang were pronounced, and when I tried to explain that that was an AI and not how the region says it (think Jawn for a Philly based company), they got very defensive of the AI
AI will be the downfall of Hollywood. The studios want it to cut corners in hope of quick revenue but the audience won't buy into it. This will be the nail in the coffin.
Hollywood has no future either way. By the end of 2025 anyone will be able to just ask an AI model to generate any kind of video he wants, and it will be there waiting for him within a few minutes. I will not pay to watch the garbage they make when I can have an AI generate anything I want to watch.
There are noise removal filters that remove the glaze and nightshade noise. So while it does protect some scrapers it's not enough. We really need to push for laws that protect artists
I don't think AI can ruin art in a sense. What makes art so special is the fact that it can be done by us, humans. You take that away, and really, all there is is a flat superficial image. The art is really in the process that leads to the result, and when a piece of art is completely done by a human, without the use of AI at all, then that inspires and motivates people. AI will never replace that. Artists will always have a career. I believe that 100%. One day people will ask if a piece of art is really done by a human, and in finding out that it was done by a human, people could be even more exhilarated than even now. So in a way, It may do the opposite for us artists, or at least I hope so. The real problem is finding out if a piece of art is really done completely by a human without AI.
I agree, I think too many people value art based on its dollar value, but in reality, art isn't about money. If your only goal is to make money, you would be better off in finance. Art is about sharing your soul with others!
"You take that away, and really, all that remains is a flat superficial image." You see, the problem is that many people just need a "flat superficial image". For example, a comic book writer only needs the illustrations. An advertiser only needs an image with cool VFX of their product. A video game company only needs concept art for the characters. Most people don't care if these AI-generated works lack "soul"; they just want illustrations. If AI can produce them, they will use it.
@@baiwuli6781 I agree to an extent. I really mean that the process is the highlight. I think people can be subconsciously inspired and motivated if they find art amazing that's done by a person entirely. That's me though.
We have a saying in my field and that is, the first 80% progress is 1% of the total amount of work. It's that last 20% that will kill you. Short of a major breakthrough, I doubt AI will replace the fully trained and skilled artists, but it may very well replace those that are in that 80% tier. I look to self driving cars for example. Sure they can handle 80% of situations, but that last 20% is crucial. 20 years ago they were saying cabs/uber drivers would be unemployed within the decade... yet here we are, with self driving cars still ramming telephone poles 20 years later.
I feel like even having AI help you do character turnarounds kind of defeats the purpose of doing one in the first place. I know there are parts of art that are more laborious but that’s why human made art is so impressive. I feel like the real problem is how quickly people are expected to churn out art in order to meet studio demands and deadlines. I wish we could just hire more artists for certain projects , create slowly, and reject generative AI altogether.
@@Dovieandi ik for 3d animation but 2d animation? i feel like there might be a blind spot for ai when it comes to handdrawn 2d animation and its beautiful imperfection, 3d rigs and basic 2d rigs will be AI-ed for sure but im still hopeful that when it comes to hand drawn frame by frame the greedy businessmen keep their hands off
there's one vid viral in twitter now unfortunately... and it looked decent enough that you wouldn't know it's ai if you were just scrolling through the timeline :/
02:53 I tried to opt out of meta's data scraping, mentioning that I lived in the EU when most of the works on my account were made and posted and so GDPR should apply, but even after going to the effort they replied explicitly that they will not go ahead with the opt-out because they cannot find 'evidence of personal information' in outputs.
It's such bullshit. I 100% doubt that they went through their data sets looking for specific personal information. Can you imagine any other company saying "no you can't opt out because we can't find your information in the data set"? That's fucking terrifying because how do we know they even have the data to begin with? How are they keeping track of a user's data? They're trying to use this stupid loophole that a user needs to have evidence that their data has been used, but without access to the training models and data sets, users can't prove that. It should be enough to say "I don't consent and I would like my data removed from all databases and servers, per GDPR regulation."
How did you phrase your opt out? I wonder if it's about the wording of what you write in the opt out form. I just said that my work that is posted is my own intellectual property and I don't give them permission or consent for it to be used in any way, including in ai training data sets. And that if my request is denied I'll have no choice but to delete all my posts immediately. I got approval right away. I don't know but I'm wondering if maybe they are obliged by law in eu/uk to approve if you most explicitly and bluntly state you don't consent. Otherwise, if you phrase it more like asking, they might use it as an opportunity to evade the point and try to subdue you with nonsense like "well, your personal info isn't found in the data set". Which is complete bullshit btw. So what if it isn't found, I still want to opt out and whether it's found or not is irrelevant. Anyway, I don't know if it has anything to do with the wording, just me speculating. That would also explain why they make you write them a frickin letter instead of just providing an opt out button - to use any possible loophole.
(fellow european) I barely post on my ig, but I still have images that are directly linked to my identity so I didn't even bother to phrase it in a 'professional' or 'polite' way. I never asked for them to data-scrape my account, so why should I be? lolI just said that I was disgusted by the new policy and demanded to be opted out of it. I got a reply within seconds, whether they'll actually follow through on it, idk. But maybe you could try it that way, if you've found no success so far?
I'm starting a project, an interactive visual novel... I tried the AI stuff,but gave up... so I decided to start learning to draw from scratch. Wich me luck coz I ain't more than 6 months to get fairly good at this.
Well, I studied programming and artificial intelligence in school. I learned some things in college about cognition, and today I work as a designer. I can contribute to this debate, I guess. Everyone needs to understand that generative AI is not a big industry conspiracy. This is not some evil plan to destroy us all. The history of this technology goes back more than 40 years. It was already suspected, even in the 1990s, that at some point artificial neural networks would become so good that they could completely describe a photograph. It is a scientific matter. The hype happens today because the big industry saw that, in the last years, these algorithms have become so good that they could now exploit them commercially. What can reassure creative professionals about AI is that you need to know what you're doing to produce something useful. This applies to everyone, from translators using AI to architects and illustrators. This part is exemplified in the art director’s comment. It's no use, AI doesn't know what composition, perspective, style, and color are. It is an empty algorithm with no intentionality that mines the data of hundreds of millions of users. This is where the debate about AI gets ugly. This is not about banning AI. This is impossible. It's about making it clear that OpenAI, MidJouney, Google, and many other companies are illegally stealing our data and that we need to do something about it. These companies know this, they know that what they are doing is incorrect or even illegal, but they also know that their business model will be seriously compromised if they don't do it this way. AI is an expensive thing. What will happen when governments regulate this? What will happen when celebrities and artists win their lawsuits? What will happen when pornography generated using the faces of children causes a negative stir in public opinion? Because of that it is already being debated whether this AI hype is economically sustainable. We artists should understand as much as possible how AI works. Yes, AI is useful in many ways. It's just a machine, there's no need to be afraid. However, we must be aware of what billion-dollar companies can do, just as we must show that tech companies cannot do what they want at any cost, or, otherwise, they will start to suffer FINANCIALLY. PS: Review your terms Adobe, I've been missing Gimp a lot lately..
The only way people can be protected by this is an international Bill of Digital Rights. That’s the only way. But I don’t expect that to ever happen given politicians are local, corporations are global, politicians are worth a few million, corporations worth billions or trillions. Hence even if such an effort was to be made, the corporations have all the power in the world to push back on that and destroy it. Why? Well because then anything someone does online belongs to them. You can’t “opt in” or “opt out” without written, signed, notarized contracts. Similarly here. This means that whenever you Google something or are snooping around in Amazon, the digital marks you’re leaving, the labor, belongs to you. Google or Amazon can’t use it. Thus far they have. Whenever someone is browsing for things they’d want to buy they are teaching Amazon’s algorithm to show you what you’d be most likely to buy, in effect making Amazon a profit. Amazon is monetizing the digital labor you put into perfecting their algorithm to predict what you and people like you want. It’s like owning a piece of land and having cement, steel and bricks on it, and inviting people to take a minute to lay a brick on their way to work or wherever. Thousands of people and hours later the collective effort of these people put into this thing freely has created a huge building the owner now had and will monetize, effectively privatizing public labor for nothing! That’s where we’ve been at in regards to the internet for decades. This is just the most obvious case. And lawsuits against the AI companies won’t do squat. We need a Bill of Digital Rights.
Im not really afraid of AI, in fact i think its a really cool technology. What really scares me is the people using it, you go on the internet 99% of them are saying that they aren't stealing but at the same time saying that artist/creative workers arent necessary, so far they just demonstrated a narcicist public image.
I like to think ai will not replace artist since people enjoy human art, my biggest concern is the flooding of content ai is going to create, making it harder and harder for REAL art to pop up.
On the Meta data scraping for those who live the UK and I imagine EU too, literally filed my request for my data not be used and after verifying my email address literally 1 min later was approved so looks like their not arduous back a forth. For the paragraph I literally wrote, " don't want the Zuck to be perv, thanks" so don't worry about writing convincing argument, they probs put it their as deterrent to people opting out. and of course Great video Jackie!
Why do people even want AI art? We humans can do it just fine, so why go the extra mile to do something that can already be done? To do it better? More efficiently? It's failing, clearly, since AI can't accomplish many things humans can, so why do people continue to push and try to create AI art?
@@OnigoroshiZero unfortunately true but i guess that's what gets me. These artists should be entitled to their work but thanks to humans' greed they're denied basic decency :/
And Master Hayao Miyazaki said it when they offered him to use that garbage from open.. "The human being is losing faith in himself, it is an insult to life itself" Saying that a slot machine that spits out random noise, stolen and violating copyright, is art,... It's like saying I'm a professional cook for putting a purchased pizza in the microwave.
Looking at AI art I see that it all looks alike and nothing new is created. Or it imitates a popular artist generating thousands of fakes where every line and stroke is perfect and the subject is a generalization of what that artist has done in the past. But nothing about it is new. There was no creative revelation coming from the real artist. It's kind of like Art dumbed down or Art for dummies. So AI art trainers are stealing the work and livelihoods of actual artists with no compensation for when the AI trainer uses their copyrighted works. (Original works are automatically copyrighted to the creator, no registration is required). It is sad that Adobe tries to make you sign a no-contest agreement to use their software, which I will stop using. Facebook too. Does Corel have a similar no-contest agreement? I assume these no-contest agreements are sort of like an attempt to circumvent a "Work for Hire" statement even though they have not hired you? That would be illegal copyright infringement, at least as far as the U.S. Copyright Office is concerned. Too bad all these corporations are viewing AI art as their personal license to rip off artists of their unique styles for no compensation. Hopefully the U.S. Copyright Office will see AI art trainers as the latest generation of the copy machine because that is what it is.
2 years later, and they produced 0 results. The image and video generation models keep getting better. Maybe next time try to learn how these models work, and how they are trained.
I’m afraid of loosing authenticity, in all creative works. Music, books, art, movies just seems like ai is slowly flooding the space and I feel like I’ll be having to tell younger generations that the internet is just full of lies and to ensure we are critically analysing absolutely everything we see. It’s exhausting
exactly the next genertion becomes a society full of non believers while everything you will see has to be checked if real or not. you can't trust anything anymore- no pictures no music no movies. everything can be generated and faked. Newest trend on tiktok are schlager hits in the style of the 70s with new joke lyrics. but it sounds so real, people think they do exist.
Adobe saying they only use license content.... Then change their TOS to include YOUR content AS LICENSED CONTENT by giving them consent to do so. The audacity of that is wild. I love the idea of Glaze and Nightshade but im sorry waiting up to almost 2 hours or more is just not feasible NOR do i want to wait that long to simply add basically a filter to my image. They need to bring that process time WAY WAY down to make it more applicable to people. That time frame alone really puts off alot of people like myself.
think the process of glazing/night shading my previous artwork feels daunting because iv posted so much on my insta and twitter wish they can allow a similar feature to DeviantArt were you can keep a art piece up but update it though the edit tab so you don't have to take it down fully anyways I'm glad to hear a professional's pov on this topic, great work Jackie!
Using these processes on past posted work is likely a fruitless endeavor anyways. If it was already posted in the past it's likely already been scrapped and sitting in a dataset. This really only applies to future works you may post.
@@thatwittyname2578 yeah, ive learned from another video recently that there really isn't a place to hide your art anyways, Cara especially says you cant post AI but someone could still manually take your art from their site to give to their AI
Ai won’t stop me from drawing Sure, it might take away my ability to make money from art but it’ll never stop me from drawing Drawing is the only thing I’m good at anyway
I would love to start an art account someday, both on insta and on Cara (I have X but I barely post there so), but perhaps I'm gonna wait a bit to see how everything goes with the new platform and with Glaze and Nightshade. I'm very happy to hear some positivity tho! Especially from experienced artists
I'm not a graphic artist, but I am a musician, and one with about 20 years experience in computer science. These AI models are basically worthless, because they have virtually no precise control over what is generated. No fields to type numeric values into, sliders for color grading, or checkboxes for modes of operation. It's literally billions of dollars, and gigawatts of power to develop a 'tool' that is utterly worthless.
Oof, be midful, this is long. I hate generative ai. I don't hate ai in general , most ai doesn't need millions of stolen data from essentially unpaid labor to function. Nor does the human brain, digital artists, nor photographers. But gen ai, it only exists because of theft and will continually need more of it. Its a statistical algorithm being sold to the general public as legit artificial intelligence. And honestly, the more i learn about it and the lying evangelists that push for it- the more i HATE IT. Just get more reasons to at regular intervals. Always hated using insta, but was told for years it was a good app to use. It wasn’t. Dropped it after this blantant theft and last minute tos changes. I was too happy to ditch it. I deleted everything that wasn't glazed and let it collect dust. (Btw, some folks say "you agreed to the tos" like it excuses theft when 1.) T.o.s doesn't supersede copyright ownership. 2.) Tos changes constantly. Regardless if you agree to it or not.) Ooof, on adobe but I've had a building hatred for that company since they started their subscription model- it might have been before! School taught me how to use the suite but ive kept alternatives for personal use. I feel for the people that have used it for years. Eff that parasitic company. They ruin everything they touch, look at the shoddy programs! Look what they did to FLASH! But hey. Plus most of their user base hate their gen ai add-ons. They can slap gen ai features on programs for people who ca already draw and edit stuff- but they can't fix how badly photoshop runs...mkay. adobe can enjoy that us court lawsuit from their cancelation fee follies. For every artist thats popping up out of the woodwork saying, "Im an artist and i use gen ai" , fantastic that you benifit from the theft and exploitation of your fellow peers labor. You know that tossing a couple of your works or making a quick scribble for the ai model to fill in is just a DROP in the water of the stolen ocean , right? You're part of the problem, you aren't the solution and neither are your methods. Even if "you use it for inspiration/ideation" you are still benefiting from scrapped datasets and - jesus what happened to imagination and references. And to everyone else that uses these things- You're not creative and You're not an artists. You're a glorified requester. The main people i see benefiting from this tech as we speak are scammers, posers, spiteful choosing beggars , and cheapskates. Nothing tells me how half-assed an idea or product is than to see an ai anything. You needed the computer to do EVERYTHING for you: ai writing + ai imagery + ai programming + ai but wiping. At that point, what did you actually make? (Nothing). And now you have a poor product made at the very average of everyone else's stuff... that you can't even copyright nor own. Imagine all the power and fossil fuels used for that-because god generative ai is HORRIBLE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT. I advice artists that wanna use these things for inspiraion or reference to : 1.) Don't. The bad far out ways the good. 2.) If your being forced to- just draw from scratch and get an actual photo to reference just in case because god ,the anatomy and posing tends to be awful. Even if it "looks good". The gen ai model doesn't know how the human body works most times (they are statistics based , not understanding based. ) ,two were generated by people who don't know how the human body works either. All the people who never bothered to pick up a drawing utensil but want the "artist" lable slaped on them, often have no: skill, sense of depth, or sense of what looks good. There is a REASON why you have graphic design jobs- these skilled workers know how to make attention grabbing efficient works. They know how to design. Your average joe DOESN'T and NEVER BOTHERED TO LEARN. Which is why you see the most cluttered looking, mishmash composition pieces and logos one could ever come across. If you sucked at art before gen ai, you still suck with it. It doesn't make you creative. It doesn't make you an artist , and it isn't as innovative as people make it out to be. Its stuff weve had before but fell into the hands of tech illiterate buisnessmen who want short term gain. Take video games for instance: There is only so much a glorified aim bot can do for a trash player. Welp, gen ai is an aim bot- and one some people are PROUD to use! With how much they delude themselves and SPAM it everywhere , near exact pics over and over You can have something cheap and fast, you can have good and cheap, and you can have something fast and good. BUT NEVER ALL THREE. Gen ai is the poster child for this. Oooh, when they stop being totally free (because they are money sinks and the companies haven't found a proper way to monetize then outside of investor handouts) they are gonna be mad. Little reminder that gen ai imagry only looks this "good" because: 1.) It stole from people that are better. 2.) Loras (basically datasets that a user steals from a specific few artists to make a more specific look. Recall the samdoesarts situation where some twats made a contest of stealing sams art and making lora images from them. ) 3.) The gen ai images are HEAVILY edited and doctored. Same with sora and the aidio generations. All of them only exist due to theft. Like the biggest gen ai pushers are choosing beggars trying to convince you these toys are tools. Same ones who try and convince you NOT to use glaze and nighshade. Speaking of nightshade and glaze- getting real tired of ai pushers breaking their necks to tell people not to use them. Obviouslythey work to some degree. And any time you can inconvenience a theif is a good time. As ai fanatics keep pointing out, there may be some noise removers , but they often destroy the image or severely reduce the quality of said image , making it pointless. Or how they say its 70% effective at protection and not 100%, so they discouraged you from using it.. but clearly it still works!SOME PROTECTION IS BETTER THAN NONE. Nightshade, glaze, artshield, mist cloaking, low resolution uploads, noise, and other things are just some ways we've ADAPTED after all. (Since they are always telling us to "adapt or die" when really they mean "sit down and take it" . They don't know the full definition of adapt and get mad when we do resist to survive.) This gen ai thing isn't just artists problems, but it is often dismissed as one and that shows a lack of empathy and respect. Art goes into far more than you know. Gen ai imagery would not WORK without STEALING from artists and photographers. STILL LIVING ONES. Plus all the animations, comics,, costume designs, building designs, and do much more that artists have helped to create only for Ungrateful choosing beggars to diminish said contributions while using them is really...something.. Honestly, all jobs are at risk: actors, programmers ,writers, musicians , you name it. Its so cute to see a singer gushing about a gen ai image they generated only to get upset that someone fed their music into an ai music generator. /s. Same writer that used gen ai imagry would get mad when an artist used gen ai writing instead of hiring a writer. It is an abundance of "i don't care unless it happens to me" mentality. When really, gen ai technology should be condemned from the JUMP. Ai may not be going anywhere, matter of fact we've had it a while. But gen ai is just a falsely advertised algorithm that should never be limped into ACTUAL ai. It honestly can wither whenever the ai bubble inevitability bursts. May it get Limewire. May it get Napster-ed. May one good lawsuit ruin the entire gen ai scam. 😂
1st of all when did digital artists become the new "real artists"😂😂 Calm down guys, theres room for everyone.. Traditional 3D Digital 2d Matte P Tracers AI This ai war has been blown way out of proportion imo
This made me feel a lot better, as a small artist I didn't really know what I could do but glaze/nightshade seems interesting. It's an easy way to push back and protect ourselves.
No and it never will. If anything, AI has made me improve my game at painting, illustrating eh. AI is like 3D and NFTs...it will make a big splash initially, then slowly fade as most folk realise what a hollow con it actually is.
NFT is definitely bad, but what's wrong with 3d? Sure, those AAA companies have boring hyper mega realistic 3d, but I've seen a lot of artists who make very nice stylized 3d models. 3d is like sculpting, some people make cool stuff with it and there is nothing wrong with the medium
By definition it is not art, only humans can create art which by definition is "human self-expression". AI generates mashed together images so it makes more sense to call it "AI generated images" (AIGI) or just AI images.
reasons on why AI art wont take over all artists jobs, A company provides goods and services for the people so they need to provide things that people actually want, First of all AI art cant be copyrighted meaning they would be providing non copyrighted art which wont end well, second no one wants things made by AI like would you rather read a book made by a person or an AI? obv a person right... If the people dont want things made by AI, companies will be forced to not use AI created things. These are my reasons on why I dont think I will fully take over, also I think Its only booming right now only because its a new thing and its in its spotlight. only time will tell though.
money will tell if AI art will be a thing or not, if people pay for it then will be a thing, if people refuse because there is AI and they don't like it there will be not a thing personally i think the market will have both handmade art and AI art , for games, media, animes, comics and movies , and some countries will copystrike like crazy like US and JP but others will simply ignore and pull out the maximum overload of AI spam in every way possible like China and India
AI is not death of artists. AI is the death of the sub artist, that had as art just drawing the company maskot in a new image using a new product. That job willb e gone to AI. But.. creating a new maskot? Even if with help of AI to bring up several concepts to be later tuned, that will still be job of a human for a good while. AI will for sure take some jobs. You do not need to draw interpolation frames in an animation, the AI can do that. But you will still need artists for that animation movie. That is just another tech revolution, as many that have hit humanity and several fields. It is unavoidable... people need to adapt. You need to become good at things AI cannot be relied upon.
What gets me is that the AI generated images are so bland. Even if they’re nice looking, there’s just never anything interesting going on because the AI naturally doesn’t have taste and just goes for an average of the images it knows.
It's not the tool but how you use the tool, there's always grifters and people who use them to harm others and their own benefits, you choose how you use them. Ai can totally help you with character turn arounds, they have tool for that, also re-coloring, also scaling, also outfit change etc. These tools will make the boring tasks easier and give you to focus nice parts, it's only your own incompetence if you're afraid to improve your pipeline. Ai is not taking your jobs, but artists who use Ai.
yeah in a good world that would work. we dont live in a good world, greed, profit and lazyness of most people who use it to safe money make cuts and validate themselves with it, that is the problem.
@@enilenis the artists are screwed already. google "AI painting fools art critics". we become a society of non believers cause everything we see now is questionable if real or not. we see design hotels on tik tok which dont exist. fotos from locations which dont exist. we hear songs that never got composed by real artists. i work in advertising and get fotoshoots from brands that was created by AI cause its cheaper safe models safe photographers safe location travels etc.! many jobs are on stake. people will loose their jobs trasticly. I will go that far and say AI/KI is destroying the world as we know the very moment. Either you have to jump on that wagon as an artist and use KI for your advantage somehow or you go down.
@@enilenis Luddite? I won't bother responding to everything you've written. Soon your entire job will be replaced and don't come crying when it's gone. Companies only need a handful of humans to get the job done going forward and I doubt you're talented enough to be the one they save.
AI is surface level good. But zoom in, look longer than 5 seconds and the illusion falls apart. EVERYONE should glaze their artwork until laws are in place to protect everyone.
as somebody who roughly knows how its trained, I can confirm every image during training goes through small change (like gaussian blur 0.01) which removes all poison data so nightshade or glaze is completely useless
It's pretty risky to say, but I'm still gonna say it: It was never the machine fault. The more I watch videos about this whole situation with ai, the more Is, that ai is pictured as some kind of villain machine, that wanna steal our art. But that's not how it works. Ai is programmed to do only what people told it, and it's never been living on it's own. At least I hope so... So the judgments, that goes on ai, Is actually should go on people and companies that programmed the machine to do so. Trust me, ai would never awake on it's self one day and decided to steal from artists. I think that the art community should deal not only with AI itself, but also with companies: write petitions, submit applications, arrange proteses. Anything to get through to people in the first place, not to a soulless machine
I FREAKING HATE AI SO MUCH WHY DO PEOPLE LIKE IT? DOESN'T IT FEEL BETTER TO MAKE IT YOURSELF AND IMPROVE? I HATE ANYONE WHO IS SELLING AI 'ART" ON WEBSITES AND THINKS AI DOES A BETTER JOB THAN AN ACTUAL ARTIST. AI IS STEALING FROM ARTISTS, NOW IM TOO SCARED TO POST MY FREAKING ART BECAUSE NOW YOU GOTTA BE SUPER CAREFUL BECAUSE AI CAN JUST STEAL IT EVEN DELETE UR WATERMARK. im gonna look more into cara i think thats the last social media thats safe for artists.. screw ai absolutely the worst thing that has been happening in 2023-2024. and if someone says my art looks like ai im gonna freaking lose my mind. ITS NOT ART IF YOU'RE JUST COPYING FROM EVERYONE NO CREDITS AND PEOPLE THINK THATS COOL. WHAT IS THIS SOCIETY WE ARE LIVING IN RIGHT NOW?! we artists need to do something to stop ai from taking over our artwork please i am BEGGING for this.
I really don’t see AI really taking down artists anytime soon. To me it going to be more a a useful tool for “ready made” concept art then anything really serious.
It's comforting to know that as scary as generative AI is getting, it's also so fragile that a little thing like barely-perceptible squiggles on an art piece can make it fall to pieces.
Thank you so much for this video! I think me and alot of other artists really needed something with hope and information on how to fight back on AI art. Definitely trying to figure out how to learn Glaze and Nightshade. I also was wondering how you feel about the Adobe situation and if you are currently looking or going to use other software for your art. I would love to hear your recommendations as a replacement for Photoshop.
Aye it really is all down to that. Sure people can make arguments about how the REAL artists will never die because AI works are inherently soulless in their aesthetics and could never do X or Y but the fact is the average consumer is not going to care. Worse, its a distinction that companies don't care about, even those where quality art has been their defining hallmark are happily adopting AI. So Art won't die as a form of human expression but commercially speaking its pretty over and will largely serve as a hobby.
@@sum8601 I think the future is all about character building and story telling. Not just fancy looking good feeling kind shit that already all over the internet. People who can really build a world will be needed.
@@AlexW1495 Yeah, consumers do want free shit, but how is that working out right now? Every price is up, more subscription on everything you can even imagine, free is usually the one cost most. Companies will not make things free unless it will make more money, like free to play. I don't know, do you think anybody can stop this? Most people say they care, but no they don't. Obviously not care enough to help the artist other than say I care.
wait i dont get it im like really stupid. so whats stopping them from screenshotting and ai training ur image even if u dont consent to it? like how would u know, is there evidence if they ai train ur art? o _O
If you think about it, AI needs to be fed a lot of art to start producing quality images. The less information it has, the less variety it can offer. Why? Because it essentially creates collages from existing images and blends elements together correctly. We are all being misled about what it really does. Our art came from years of human experience built up to what we have today. If we left AI with no input, it would create nothing, which proves it is a factory of stolen artwork mashed together constantly in a mathematical sequence.
AI certainly won't be the death of artists, as a whole, but it sure shows where the prorities of those using it lie. Hint; their main concern clearly isn't quality.
AI art is a great BLESSING for non artists people. Period! 99.99% artists will not allow their arts being used, even if it's fanarts. Imagine you want to make a book about an anime character. Of course you need LOTS of drawings. Imagine if u have to pay each picture. How much will you sell the book?! Will people want to buy EXPENSIVE and mind you UNOFFICIAL ANIME BOOK??? The answer is resounding N.O.!!! So yeah I'm a supporter of AI art! Hallelujah for AI art....
Um. I hope WIX isnt stealing art to feed into an AI. I did not think of that being a possibility until you mention squarespace. I was using it for portfolio but i might just delete.
Hey Jackie!! I am a young drawer, I want to be a prop designer, an animator and game developer, but it genuinely seems like it’s getting hopeless with how AI is taking over, and in the near future it’s most likely that AI will take over. Would you recommend sticking with the passion or find a job that makes more money?
I wouldn't have to glaze or nightshade my art if these assholes weren't stealing artwork, why do I have to do this? All I want to do is create.........
Gen Ai for the most part has turned already existing problems in the art industry up to 11. Any results that they advertised especially in the early days were either not met or were greatly overhyped. Businesses have started to realize this too.
Then do it, no one is stopping you... No one will ever ban you from creating anything, just don't expect to get paid for it. If you like it as a hobby, you will be fine. But like everyone else crying about this, you people don't really care about the process, just for the economic benefits that allows you to make easy money. Typical hypocrites.
@@OnigoroshiZero Ok, first of all, making actual good art is not easy, it takes a lot of time and patience to be able to learn this skill in the first place, a skill that these bastards want to steal. And second of all, this capitalist system we live in forces us to work in order to survive, so in order to dedicate more time to making my art, turning into a job has to be a goal, otherwise I need to dedicate 40 or more hours a week on some other bullshit job that I hate doing. What am I suppose to do? Work in a job I hate, until I can hopefully retire in my 60's or 70's to finally be able to do the thing I wanted in the first place?
Frankly, it bothers me how much people are hyping this stuff because it really isn't all that amazing in the end. AI was impressive for the first 6 months or so, simply because we had never seen a computer generate entire finished pictures or texts before. By now, it's become very obvious just how limited it is. And I don't believe it's going to get much better. It might even get worse. I'm also tired of hearing "AI can be a great tool". We have more than enough tools. Technology has made everything too comfortable already, limiting our own abilities to do things. It's time for people to embrace the discomfort of actually doing stuff for themselves again, or we'll all turn into those people from WALL-E.
Before we had NFT's, now AI, I dunno if it's a coincidences but it feels someone has a massive beef with us artist and wish to ruinned forever by comodifying it.
No, it is the birth of a new era of my career where I can finally automate my comics process and not end up in the hospital again. I'm using Stable AI with my own character designs with my own Lora models in conjunction with 3D models. Educate yourselves and get better at your crafts! LOL
Its going to be so sad to hear about the creators of Glaze suddenly disappearing mysteriously. Theres no way these big corpos are going to let them keep doing this. Either the company will be harassed until they shutdown or theyll be bought out.
One of the issues I can’t stand with the AI fear mongering is all the people calling out other peoples artwork as being AI created when they don’t even know. I’ve even seen people say “if you don’t show a process video it isn’t real.” 🤯 So for every piece of art I post online I have to post a “making of” video to not have people claim it’s AI?! Come on people we are allowing our fear to divide the artist community, sending people into an AI witch hunting frenzy. We’re better than that.
Nah, AI is a threat much more grave than having to prove your work. If your work is the type that would attract doubts, then you have the capacity to show the process. Over the past couple of months there have been multiple AI prompters pretending to be artists, posting obvious AI, getting called out, and doubling down. Only to get proven for the leeches they are.
Says someone with A-eyes! Just kidding/complimenting. This situation will even out, become paywalled and regulated, however it'll surely leave scars in the artistic and commercial landscape for good. Also, junior positions in just about all branches of digital work may get culled and the floor raised.
I don't like AI because as an artist it kills my potential to market my skills... Why pay me for my time and effort when one can go to _Dall-E_ , write a few words, and have the AI construct a digital piece that's even suitable for hard copy processing and framing (or even on a digital screen and frame) all for a fraction of what you would have to pay me or any other artist? Granted, it's machine made and next to worthless, but you can always change to another cheap image! No, only the wealthy will appreciate art, as they always have, and that's an extremely niche market and always has been... Even moreso, since some of the rich are themselves now being "taken to the cleaners" by their own kind (and by the politicians) these days!
Things are like the Wild West right now. Instead of keeping myself in the dark waiting for the best, I went to study AI, how it works, and its flaws. As far as I can tell, the idealization of Generative Art AI is the core problem. Art AIs were created with the philosophy of making money off the “do art yourself art at home or at work without the need of an artist” market, instead of being created as a tool to improve artists productivity. Besides the obvious ethical problems, AI also have a certain component of randomness that is its Achilles heels ATM (it could change with time, but for now, it is): You just don't know what you're gonna get with AI. If you are a layman in art, that detail is not important. If you know how to draw, you have one BIG advantage over it: Precision and intent. Also, I personally think that the AI market is a time bomb, specially in the art sector. Two particular scenarios are very capable to happen in the future IMO: 1) AI complete saturates the market, no new art is produced to feed the machines, the industry is forced to go beck to use human art because there is no innovation. 2) The management of intellectual property becomes impossible. As things are now, not only artists were used as sacrificial lambs to feed the machines, but some big companies' art got in the blender too. They didn't notice yet, but their intellectual property is ALREADY being stolen, they just didn't felt in their pockets yet. And that, my people, is not a matter of maybe, is a matter of when. At some point, these big companies that now advocate so intensely about using AI to cut costs will be in the same position of the artists they fired: some AI replacing then. Expect heavy lobby from those companies to regulate or prohibit AI.
my guess is that we as a society will eventually get tired of ai generated soulless content, lack of human feeling in products and such, and re-discover the value of human art.. i hope. tho i feel like with how much numb consumerism and anti-intellectualism (?) there is, my guess aint gonna happen in my lifetime :")
Ai is just gonna make the lack of originality problem in mainstream media worse, because instead of artists doing their best with what greedy executives are forcing them to remake and reboot, greedy executives will be copy pasting the same things into ai over and over again without even a hint of variety. In the long run all AI is gonna do is make more people flock to indie animation in search of something authentic.
I am thinking about this topic for a while and I came to a conclusion. "Art has a purpose". AI art can make anything a human can make but there would be no purpose of that art. Try looking at the video games these days. They are state of the art software, high visual fidelity, highly tested and polished but not "fun", why? Lack of purpose. People tend to mix good games/movies/music with nostalgia to prove that that it wasnt that better as you remeber it. Watched Rush Hour a few weeks back, and it was fun! Maybe you get my point. The second point is about democratising art. This is a foolish and poorly constructed argument make by management people. AI will generate generic art and you'll consider it your work. I want to end this comment by a line, "AI art is like ready to eat noodle, you cant change the ingredients but can call youself a chef"

This is a perfect analogy
It’s up to the consumers. Companies have been trying to automate things forever, but if it gets rejected by the consumer, they’ll abandon it.
problem is most consumers won't care
but will consumers care about something like this
Consumers can now sell shits made by AI or no more need real artist work cuz of AI, and cherry on the cake, AI steal artists works from the "internet world". Basically internet or AI arent bad but are always used in wrong ways or for egoists purposes, in my opinion, if we cant give a knife to a 5 years old, we shouldn't leave theses tools free of access on humanity since they proven being 5years old in generality and their insane side is origin of all problems. I know i sound extrem, but im just being realistic.
Customers are starting to associate it with boomers, and scams.
So.... that's probably going to make it un-cool.
Some consumers have been mocking artists who've requested that they don't ask for AI art *in their style* because that dataset was scraped off the internet. If the law doesn't get involved, nothing will change.
My company thought they could replace me with ai so I quit during a huge project, I was the team lead, and had advanced knowledge on all the tools. They ended up losing a massive client because they couldn't deliver the quality they needed, and eventually wanted to hire me back. I increased my salary by 30k and got to negotiate my full contract so I have ownership of all my created works.
Nice
Good for you.

I love this for you, get it!
they are looking for someone to replace you as we speak
Images. Unless AI has become sentient it's producing images not art. As artists we need to change the framing of this problem. Humans make art. Computer programs make images.
And humans using computer programs to sketch, draw, paint, etc. make digital art.
That's a good way to put it, but the sad part is the average consumer won't care. That's why AI art discourse and information is almost entirely encapsulated in art community spaces where artists or people who respect artists share a platform. So in the end, the framing or name we give the problem doesn't really fix it when the underlying problem is how disrespected artists are
I certainly agree. I don't even understand the concept of consuming AI generated content as though it has some reason to exist. Of course that won't stop corporations from making money off images, video, or songs generated by AI, and calling it art.
@@mertensiam3384 Lets be honest, the 'average consumer' has no idea what constitutes art anyway. They paid to see 1,400 Marvel films. The real problem I see is that companies don't care if it's partially incoherent, or lower quality, just so long as it's cheaper. And of course if they can eliminate human artists, they can eliminate every other job imaginable.
@@dmwalker24 even some artists themselves have been using gen ai and support it's use if it makes them laugh. And I just look at them thinking "don't they realize that this is training the model? Don't they realize that by using ai to make that one baby with giant shoes, they're training ai to make videos of real babies?"
People in general truly don't care about shit if it's cheap or makes them laugh, and it's concerning
I’ve switched to calling them AI Images. Calling them Art gives them a legitimacy to non-artists that they don’t deserve.
couldn't have said it better! us artists really need to start having in confidence in the skills and creativity that we have, even though I know it's easier said than done. imo all these slop generators are the consequence of a society not really appreciating the arts and the cultural value it actually has and it doesn't help when we put ourselves down too in the process.

4. Take photos of your artwork on your screens devices like she explains.

6. Don't fear, AI is only a tool we can defeat, is not the end of Artist. Tradicional Painters for example survives the photography age, digital Art age, and now the web3.0 and AI age also for sure. They are like sharks, sharks survives many extinctions without any change.

I just really really hope people continue to value real, handmade human created art more than AI generated stuff
Like, corporations are obviously going to do whats cheaper but i hope that audiences will continue to spot AI art and critique its use and ethics (or lack thereof) so that it isnt profitable
Normal people don't care. Those who work a full time job but want to do art as well, will turn to ai out of convenience. look at some who call themselves musicians who only use ai to "make" music, they will bang out a number 1 hit in a few hours instead of days. I have been using suno to experiment, but my prompting comes from music theory and feeding ai with lyrics then prompting it to do a blues shuffle in key of B minor a male vocals using chords C D Bm D ect.. gives you what you want eventually. its like when using chord generators or note generators ect.. It helps creating a unique work of art. trying to prompt strumming patterns don't work or at least I haven't found a way to make it work. I guess it will eventually. I have used Logic pro drummer for years in creating music, because i'm not going to pay a drummer, I have experienced putting a band together, its hard work. I would rather be creative in my spare time than trying to figure out a time a band can get together to finish music. I might one day be able to tour and hire temp musicians to play the instruments I need like bass and drums.

The shitty thing about Adobe's "clarification" is that they didn't re-update the terms of service. I'm hoping AI-prompted images are just a gimmick and they go away once viewers see that they're kinda trash and the datasets are run dry. Nightshade feels like the better option to combat this because AI is being pushed so, so heavily by shareholders in these companies and businesses. They want people to buy into their AI products as a "solution" to... Really, just not paying artists (like illustrators and photographers). They need to see that artists who don't consent to their works being used without permissions will take action when things like copyright laws and licensing haven't caught up to the digital age. I love the big fuck-you to the data training. We need more legislation. We need businesses to fear their consumers because they really are at the whim of what consumers want and use.

why would imperfections making you human mean your customers want imperfections?
@@Synthesia-ef7hj Yes, imperfections are definitely needed to some degree to create a more organic aesthetic, as opposed to synthetic "perfection" that can come across as ugly. I'm pretty sure he is referring to imperfections that create an organic feel. Consider 2D animation, for example. Even today, 3D animation often struggles to capture the organic quality that 2D animation achieves. From an organic perspective, a purely synthetic aesthetic can appear dull.
@@Synthesia-ef7hj my point was that sometimes people want such crystal clear audio with no hint of accent, which is when hard for most people due to cultural and regional differences.

I don't think AI can ruin art in a sense. What makes art so special is the fact that it can be done by us, humans. You take that away, and really, all there is is a flat superficial image. The art is really in the process that leads to the result, and when a piece of art is completely done by a human, without the use of AI at all, then that inspires and motivates people. AI will never replace that. Artists will always have a career. I believe that 100%. One day people will ask if a piece of art is really done by a human, and in finding out that it was done by a human, people could be even more exhilarated than even now. So in a way, It may do the opposite for us artists, or at least I hope so. The real problem is finding out if a piece of art is really done completely by a human without AI.
I agree, I think too many people value art based on its dollar value, but in reality, art isn't about money. If your only goal is to make money, you would be better off in finance. Art is about sharing your soul with others!
@@Naoto-kun1085 exactly, very well put.
"You take that away, and really, all that remains is a flat superficial image." You see, the problem is that many people just need a "flat superficial image". For example, a comic book writer only needs the illustrations. An advertiser only needs an image with cool VFX of their product. A video game company only needs concept art for the characters. Most people don't care if these AI-generated works lack "soul"; they just want illustrations. If AI can produce them, they will use it.
@@baiwuli6781 I agree to an extent. I really mean that the process is the highlight. I think people can be subconsciously inspired and motivated if they find art amazing that's done by a person entirely. That's me though.

Short of a major breakthrough, I doubt AI will replace the fully trained and skilled artists, but it may very well replace those that are in that 80% tier. I look to self driving cars for example. Sure they can handle 80% of situations, but that last 20% is crucial. 20 years ago they were saying cabs/uber drivers would be unemployed within the decade... yet here we are, with self driving cars still ramming telephone poles 20 years later.

I feel like even having AI help you do character turnarounds kind of defeats the purpose of doing one in the first place. I know there are parts of art that are more laborious but that’s why human made art is so impressive. I feel like the real problem is how quickly people are expected to churn out art in order to meet studio demands and deadlines. I wish we could just hire more artists for certain projects , create slowly, and reject generative AI altogether.

@@Dovieandi ik for 3d animation but 2d animation? i feel like there might be a blind spot for ai when it comes to handdrawn 2d animation and its beautiful imperfection, 3d rigs and basic 2d rigs will be AI-ed for sure but im still hopeful that when it comes to hand drawn frame by frame the greedy businessmen keep their hands off
i mean there is a tool like that, but it looks so lifeless fortunately and it cannot generate objects consistently. but im afraid its a yet tho.
there's one vid viral in twitter now unfortunately... and it looked decent enough that you wouldn't know it's ai if you were just scrolling through the timeline :/
02:53 I tried to opt out of meta's data scraping, mentioning that I lived in the EU when most of the works on my account were made and posted and so GDPR should apply, but even after going to the effort they replied explicitly that they will not go ahead with the opt-out because they cannot find 'evidence of personal information' in outputs.
Who HONESTLY expected the corporations to keep their word and defend the people they profit off of, instead of pursuing even more profit? Not me..
It's such bullshit. I 100% doubt that they went through their data sets looking for specific personal information. Can you imagine any other company saying "no you can't opt out because we can't find your information in the data set"? That's fucking terrifying because how do we know they even have the data to begin with? How are they keeping track of a user's data? They're trying to use this stupid loophole that a user needs to have evidence that their data has been used, but without access to the training models and data sets, users can't prove that. It should be enough to say "I don't consent and I would like my data removed from all databases and servers, per GDPR regulation."
How did you phrase your opt out? I wonder if it's about the wording of what you write in the opt out form. I just said that my work that is posted is my own intellectual property and I don't give them permission or consent for it to be used in any way, including in ai training data sets. And that if my request is denied I'll have no choice but to delete all my posts immediately. I got approval right away. I don't know but I'm wondering if maybe they are obliged by law in eu/uk to approve if you most explicitly and bluntly state you don't consent. Otherwise, if you phrase it more like asking, they might use it as an opportunity to evade the point and try to subdue you with nonsense like "well, your personal info isn't found in the data set". Which is complete bullshit btw. So what if it isn't found, I still want to opt out and whether it's found or not is irrelevant.
Anyway, I don't know if it has anything to do with the wording, just me speculating. That would also explain why they make you write them a frickin letter instead of just providing an opt out button - to use any possible loophole.
(fellow european) I barely post on my ig, but I still have images that are directly linked to my identity so I didn't even bother to phrase it in a 'professional' or 'polite' way. I never asked for them to data-scrape my account, so why should I be? lolI just said that I was disgusted by the new policy and demanded to be opted out of it. I got a reply within seconds, whether they'll actually follow through on it, idk. But maybe you could try it that way, if you've found no success so far?

Well, I studied programming and artificial intelligence in school. I learned some things in college about cognition, and today I work as a designer. I can contribute to this debate, I guess.
Everyone needs to understand that generative AI is not a big industry conspiracy. This is not some evil plan to destroy us all. The history of this technology goes back more than 40 years. It was already suspected, even in the 1990s, that at some point artificial neural networks would become so good that they could completely describe a photograph. It is a scientific matter. The hype happens today because the big industry saw that, in the last years, these algorithms have become so good that they could now exploit them commercially.
What can reassure creative professionals about AI is that you need to know what you're doing to produce something useful. This applies to everyone, from translators using AI to architects and illustrators. This part is exemplified in the art director’s comment. It's no use, AI doesn't know what composition, perspective, style, and color are. It is an empty algorithm with no intentionality that mines the data of hundreds of millions of users.
This is where the debate about AI gets ugly. This is not about banning AI. This is impossible. It's about making it clear that OpenAI, MidJouney, Google, and many other companies are illegally stealing our data and that we need to do something about it. These companies know this, they know that what they are doing is incorrect or even illegal, but they also know that their business model will be seriously compromised if they don't do it this way. AI is an expensive thing. What will happen when governments regulate this? What will happen when celebrities and artists win their lawsuits? What will happen when pornography generated using the faces of children causes a negative stir in public opinion? Because of that it is already being debated whether this AI hype is economically sustainable.
We artists should understand as much as possible how AI works. Yes, AI is useful in many ways. It's just a machine, there's no need to be afraid. However, we must be aware of what billion-dollar companies can do, just as we must show that tech companies cannot do what they want at any cost, or, otherwise, they will start to suffer FINANCIALLY.
PS: Review your terms Adobe, I've been missing Gimp a lot lately..
The only way people can be protected by this is an international Bill of Digital Rights. That’s the only way. But I don’t expect that to ever happen given politicians are local, corporations are global, politicians are worth a few million, corporations worth billions or trillions. Hence even if such an effort was to be made, the corporations have all the power in the world to push back on that and destroy it.
Why? Well because then anything someone does online belongs to them. You can’t “opt in” or “opt out” without written, signed, notarized contracts. Similarly here. This means that whenever you Google something or are snooping around in Amazon, the digital marks you’re leaving, the labor, belongs to you. Google or Amazon can’t use it.
Thus far they have. Whenever someone is browsing for things they’d want to buy they are teaching Amazon’s algorithm to show you what you’d be most likely to buy, in effect making Amazon a profit. Amazon is monetizing the digital labor you put into perfecting their algorithm to predict what you and people like you want.
It’s like owning a piece of land and having cement, steel and bricks on it, and inviting people to take a minute to lay a brick on their way to work or wherever. Thousands of people and hours later the collective effort of these people put into this thing freely has created a huge building the owner now had and will monetize, effectively privatizing public labor for nothing!
That’s where we’ve been at in regards to the internet for decades. This is just the most obvious case. And lawsuits against the AI companies won’t do squat. We need a Bill of Digital Rights.
I would rather ban it, honestly.
It's developing so fast laws are falling behind failing to cover it. It needs to be banned first, discussed later.
I thought there already has been cases of AI making CP content
Im not really afraid of AI, in fact i think its a really cool technology. What really scares me is the people using it, you go on the internet 99% of them are saying that they aren't stealing but at the same time saying that artist/creative workers arent necessary, so far they just demonstrated a narcicist public image.
I like to think ai will not replace artist since people enjoy human art, my biggest concern is the flooding of content ai is going to create, making it harder and harder for REAL art to pop up.
On the Meta data scraping for those who live the UK and I imagine EU too, literally filed my request for my data not be used and after verifying my email address literally 1 min later was approved so looks like their not arduous back a forth. For the paragraph I literally wrote, " don't want the Zuck to be perv, thanks" so don't worry about writing convincing argument, they probs put it their as deterrent to people opting out. and of course Great video Jackie!
Why do people even want AI art? We humans can do it just fine, so why go the extra mile to do something that can already be done? To do it better? More efficiently? It's failing, clearly, since AI can't accomplish many things humans can, so why do people continue to push and try to create AI art?
They want ai art because its cheaper and faster.
@@peacefulman2196 Mmm fair point. I guess that's the worst part; industries and companies will do anything to cut corners...
Cheaper, faster, and better if you spend 2-3 minutes more.
Also, no hassle of interacting with entitled humans.
@@OnigoroshiZero unfortunately true but i guess that's what gets me. These artists should be entitled to their work but thanks to humans' greed they're denied basic decency :/
lazy people want to make art but don't want to put the work in
And Master Hayao Miyazaki said it when they offered him to use that garbage from open..
"The human being is losing faith in himself, it is an insult to life itself"
Saying that a slot machine that spits out random noise, stolen and violating copyright, is art,...
It's like saying I'm a professional cook for putting a purchased pizza in the microwave.
There’s no such thing as ai art.
Art is something that a human made with their hands not by automated machines
Looking at AI art I see that it all looks alike and nothing new is created. Or it imitates a popular artist generating thousands of fakes where every line and stroke is perfect and the subject is a generalization of what that artist has done in the past. But nothing about it is new. There was no creative revelation coming from the real artist. It's kind of like Art dumbed down or Art for dummies.
So AI art trainers are stealing the work and livelihoods of actual artists with no compensation for when the AI trainer uses their copyrighted works. (Original works are automatically copyrighted to the creator, no registration is required). It is sad that Adobe tries to make you sign a no-contest agreement to use their software, which I will stop using. Facebook too. Does Corel have a similar no-contest agreement? I assume these no-contest agreements are sort of like an attempt to circumvent a "Work for Hire" statement even though they have not hired you? That would be illegal copyright infringement, at least as far as the U.S. Copyright Office is concerned.
Too bad all these corporations are viewing AI art as their personal license to rip off artists of their unique styles for no compensation. Hopefully the U.S. Copyright Office will see AI art trainers as the latest generation of the copy machine because that is what it is.
I just finished downloading Glaze and Nightshade ! I can't wait to use them 😈
2 years later, and they produced 0 results. The image and video generation models keep getting better.
Maybe next time try to learn how these models work, and how they are trained.
God I hate AI art
I’m afraid of loosing authenticity, in all creative works. Music, books, art, movies just seems like ai is slowly flooding the space and I feel like I’ll be having to tell younger generations that the internet is just full of lies and to ensure we are critically analysing absolutely everything we see. It’s exhausting
exactly the next genertion becomes a society full of non believers while everything you will see has to be checked if real or not. you can't trust anything anymore- no pictures no music no movies. everything can be generated and faked. Newest trend on tiktok are schlager hits in the style of the 70s with new joke lyrics. but it sounds so real, people think they do exist.
Nice try to "luddite" the AI with "glaze:, but the AI will eventually win the day, sad to say.
Adobe saying they only use license content.... Then change their TOS to include YOUR content AS LICENSED CONTENT by giving them consent to do so. The audacity of that is wild.
I love the idea of Glaze and Nightshade but im sorry waiting up to almost 2 hours or more is just not feasible NOR do i want to wait that long to simply add basically a filter to my image. They need to bring that process time WAY WAY down to make it more applicable to people. That time frame alone really puts off alot of people like myself.
think the process of glazing/night shading my previous artwork feels daunting because iv posted so much on my insta and twitter
wish they can allow a similar feature to DeviantArt were you can keep a art piece up but update it though the edit tab so you don't have to take it down fully
anyways I'm glad to hear a professional's pov on this topic, great work Jackie!
Using these processes on past posted work is likely a fruitless endeavor anyways. If it was already posted in the past it's likely already been scrapped and sitting in a dataset. This really only applies to future works you may post.
@@thatwittyname2578 yeah, ive learned from another video recently that there really isn't a place to hide your art anyways, Cara especially says you cant post AI but someone could still manually take your art from their site to give to their AI
@@emmadilemma4177cara is basically just a gold mine for ai since they know none of the images are ai generated, its literally the perfect data set
That mic setup you have is very cute
Ai won’t stop me from drawing
Sure, it might take away my ability to make money from art but it’ll never stop me from drawing
Drawing is the only thing I’m good at anyway
I’m not going to stop drawing either!
Can never put a price on art
So weird….. here in Miami we got a gazillion art galleries with price tags on the prettt pictures
I would love to start an art account someday, both on insta and on Cara (I have X but I barely post there so), but perhaps I'm gonna wait a bit to see how everything goes with the new platform and with Glaze and Nightshade. I'm very happy to hear some positivity tho! Especially from experienced artists
Im on pillowfort! Its also a website that completely bans ai content, the place is very welcoming and settled down there. Also trying out Cara!
I'm not a graphic artist, but I am a musician, and one with about 20 years experience in computer science. These AI models are basically worthless, because they have virtually no precise control over what is generated. No fields to type numeric values into, sliders for color grading, or checkboxes for modes of operation. It's literally billions of dollars, and gigawatts of power to develop a 'tool' that is utterly worthless.
Blender, Procreate, Cara here I come
Oof, be midful, this is long. I hate generative ai. I don't hate ai in general , most ai doesn't need millions of stolen data from essentially unpaid labor to function. Nor does the human brain, digital artists, nor photographers. But gen ai, it only exists because of theft and will continually need more of it. Its a statistical algorithm being sold to the general public as legit artificial intelligence. And honestly, the more i learn about it and the lying evangelists that push for it- the more i HATE IT.
Just get more reasons to at regular intervals.
Always hated using insta, but was told for years it was a good app to use. It wasn’t. Dropped it after this blantant theft and last minute tos changes. I was too happy to ditch it. I deleted everything that wasn't glazed and let it collect dust. (Btw, some folks say "you agreed to the tos" like it excuses theft when
1.) T.o.s doesn't supersede copyright ownership.
2.) Tos changes constantly. Regardless if you agree to it or not.)
Ooof, on adobe but I've had a building hatred for that company since they started their subscription model- it might have been before! School taught me how to use the suite but ive kept alternatives for personal use. I feel for the people that have used it for years. Eff that parasitic company. They ruin everything they touch, look at the shoddy programs! Look what they did to FLASH! But hey. Plus most of their user base hate their gen ai add-ons. They can slap gen ai features on programs for people who ca already draw and edit stuff- but they can't fix how badly photoshop runs...mkay. adobe can enjoy that us court lawsuit from their cancelation fee follies.
For every artist thats popping up out of the woodwork saying, "Im an artist and i use gen ai" , fantastic that you benifit from the theft and exploitation of your fellow peers labor. You know that tossing a couple of your works or making a quick scribble for the ai model to fill in is just a DROP in the water of the stolen ocean , right? You're part of the problem, you aren't the solution and neither are your methods. Even if "you use it for inspiration/ideation" you are still benefiting from scrapped datasets and - jesus what happened to imagination and references.
And to everyone else that uses these things- You're not creative and You're not an artists. You're a glorified requester.
The main people i see benefiting from this tech as we speak are scammers, posers, spiteful choosing beggars , and cheapskates. Nothing tells me how half-assed an idea or product is than to see an ai anything. You needed the computer to do EVERYTHING for you: ai writing + ai imagery + ai programming + ai but wiping. At that point, what did you actually make? (Nothing). And now you have a poor product made at the very average of everyone else's stuff... that you can't even copyright nor own. Imagine all the power and fossil fuels used for that-because god generative ai is HORRIBLE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT.
I advice artists that wanna use these things for inspiraion or reference to :
1.) Don't. The bad far out ways the good.
2.) If your being forced to- just draw from scratch and get an actual photo to reference just in case because god ,the anatomy and posing tends to be awful. Even if it "looks good". The gen ai model doesn't know how the human body works most times (they are statistics based , not understanding based. ) ,two were generated by people who don't know how the human body works either.
All the people who never bothered to pick up a drawing utensil but want the "artist" lable slaped on them, often have no: skill, sense of depth, or sense of what looks good. There is a REASON why you have graphic design jobs- these skilled workers know how to make attention grabbing efficient works. They know how to design. Your average joe DOESN'T and NEVER BOTHERED TO LEARN. Which is why you see the most cluttered looking, mishmash composition pieces and logos one could ever come across. If you sucked at art before gen ai, you still suck with it. It doesn't make you creative. It doesn't make you an artist , and it isn't as innovative as people make it out to be. Its stuff weve had before but fell into the hands of tech illiterate buisnessmen who want short term gain. Take video games for instance: There is only so much a glorified aim bot can do for a trash player. Welp, gen ai is an aim bot- and one some people are PROUD to use!
With how much they delude themselves and SPAM it everywhere , near exact pics over and over
You can have something cheap and fast, you can have good and cheap, and you can have something fast and good. BUT NEVER ALL THREE. Gen ai is the poster child for this. Oooh, when they stop being totally free (because they are money sinks and the companies haven't found a proper way to monetize then outside of investor handouts) they are gonna be mad.
Little reminder that gen ai imagry only looks this "good" because:
1.) It stole from people that are better.
2.) Loras (basically datasets that a user steals from a specific few artists to make a more specific look. Recall the samdoesarts situation where some twats made a contest of stealing sams art and making lora images from them. )
3.) The gen ai images are HEAVILY edited and doctored.
Same with sora and the aidio generations. All of them only exist due to theft. Like the biggest gen ai pushers are choosing beggars trying to convince you these toys are tools. Same ones who try and convince you NOT to use glaze and nighshade.
Speaking of nightshade and glaze- getting real tired of ai pushers breaking their necks to tell people not to use them. Obviouslythey work to some degree. And any time you can inconvenience a theif is a good time. As ai fanatics keep pointing out, there may be some noise removers , but they often destroy the image or severely reduce the quality of said image , making it pointless. Or how they say its 70% effective at protection and not 100%, so they discouraged you from using it.. but clearly it still works!SOME PROTECTION IS BETTER THAN NONE. Nightshade, glaze, artshield, mist cloaking, low resolution uploads, noise, and other things are just some ways we've ADAPTED after all. (Since they are always telling us to "adapt or die" when really they mean "sit down and take it" . They don't know the full definition of adapt and get mad when we do resist to survive.)
This gen ai thing isn't just artists problems, but it is often dismissed as one and that shows a lack of empathy and respect. Art goes into far more than you know. Gen ai imagery would not WORK without STEALING from artists and photographers. STILL LIVING ONES. Plus all the animations, comics,, costume designs, building designs, and do much more that artists have helped to create only for Ungrateful choosing beggars to diminish said contributions while using them is really...something.. Honestly, all jobs are at risk: actors, programmers ,writers, musicians , you name it. Its so cute to see a singer gushing about a gen ai image they generated only to get upset that someone fed their music into an ai music generator. /s. Same writer that used gen ai imagry would get mad when an artist used gen ai writing instead of hiring a writer. It is an abundance of "i don't care unless it happens to me" mentality. When really, gen ai technology should be condemned from the JUMP.
Ai may not be going anywhere, matter of fact we've had it a while. But gen ai is just a falsely advertised algorithm that should never be limped into ACTUAL ai. It honestly can wither whenever the ai bubble inevitability bursts. May it get Limewire. May it get Napster-ed.
May one good lawsuit ruin the entire gen ai scam. 😂
Screw Adobe and Photoshop, use Krita.

This ai war has been blown way out of proportion imo
This made me feel a lot better, as a small artist I didn't really know what I could do but glaze/nightshade seems interesting. It's an easy way to push back and protect ourselves.
No and it never will. If anything, AI has made me improve my game at painting, illustrating eh. AI is like 3D and NFTs...it will make a big splash initially, then slowly fade as most folk realise what a hollow con it actually is.
NFT is definitely bad, but what's wrong with 3d? Sure, those AAA companies have boring hyper mega realistic 3d, but I've seen a lot of artists who make very nice stylized 3d models. 3d is like sculpting, some people make cool stuff with it and there is nothing wrong with the medium
By definition it is not art, only humans can create art which by definition is "human self-expression".
AI generates mashed together images so it makes more sense to call it "AI generated images" (AIGI) or just AI images.
reasons on why AI art wont take over all artists jobs, A company provides goods and services for the people so they need to provide things that people actually want, First of all AI art cant be copyrighted meaning they would be providing non copyrighted art which wont end well, second no one wants things made by AI like would you rather read a book made by a person or an AI? obv a person right... If the people dont want things made by AI, companies will be forced to not use AI created things. These are my reasons on why I dont think I will fully take over, also I think Its only booming right now only because its a new thing and its in its spotlight. only time will tell though.
money will tell if AI art will be a thing or not, if people pay for it then will be a thing, if people refuse because there is AI and they don't like it there will be not a thing
personally i think the market will have both handmade art and AI art , for games, media, animes, comics and movies , and some countries will copystrike like crazy like US and JP but others will simply ignore and pull out the maximum overload of AI spam in every way possible like China and India
AI is not death of artists. AI is the death of the sub artist, that had as art just drawing the company maskot in a new image using a new product. That job willb e gone to AI. But.. creating a new maskot? Even if with help of AI to bring up several concepts to be later tuned, that will still be job of a human for a good while.
AI will for sure take some jobs. You do not need to draw interpolation frames in an animation, the AI can do that. But you will still need artists for that animation movie. That is just another tech revolution, as many that have hit humanity and several fields. It is unavoidable... people need to adapt. You need to become good at things AI cannot be relied upon.
What gets me is that the AI generated images are so bland. Even if they’re nice looking, there’s just never anything interesting going on because the AI naturally doesn’t have taste and just goes for an average of the images it knows.
Thank you for making this helpful video Jackie!
fun fact: physical art will never go away
Amen to that :)
I'd heard of glaze and nightshade but didn't know where to start, so thank you for explaining in a way that makes sense! 🥰
It's not the tool but how you use the tool, there's always grifters and people who use them to harm others and their own benefits, you choose how you use them. Ai can totally help you with character turn arounds, they have tool for that, also re-coloring, also scaling, also outfit change etc. These tools will make the boring tasks easier and give you to focus nice parts, it's only your own incompetence if you're afraid to improve your pipeline. Ai is not taking your jobs, but artists who use Ai.
It does take jobs though. With the help of AI reducing worktime, 1 artist can do the work of what... 10? maybe 20 artists?
yeah in a good world that would work. we dont live in a good world, greed, profit and lazyness of most people who use it to safe money make cuts and validate themselves with it, that is the problem.
@@enilenis the artists are screwed already. google "AI painting fools art critics". we become a society of non believers cause everything we see now is questionable if real or not. we see design hotels on tik tok which dont exist. fotos from locations which dont exist. we hear songs that never got composed by real artists. i work in advertising and get fotoshoots from brands that was created by AI cause its cheaper safe models safe photographers safe location travels etc.! many jobs are on stake. people will loose their jobs trasticly. I will go that far and say AI/KI is destroying the world as we know the very moment. Either you have to jump on that wagon as an artist and use KI for your advantage somehow or you go down.
@@enilenis Luddite? I won't bother responding to everything you've written. Soon your entire job will be replaced and don't come crying when it's gone. Companies only need a handful of humans to get the job done going forward and I doubt you're talented enough to be the one they save.
AI is surface level good. But zoom in, look longer than 5 seconds and the illusion falls apart. EVERYONE should glaze their artwork until laws are in place to protect everyone.
AI Art is the death of noob artists whom lost their confidence. It's the noob trap that will prevent them from improving.
It is not the end of artists, rather the death of art sites flooded with algorithmical imagery.
AI is so lame and pointless. Only boomers and people who wish they were special find it worth anything.
as somebody who roughly knows how its trained, I can confirm every image during training goes through small change (like gaussian blur 0.01) which removes all poison data so nightshade or glaze is completely useless
I'm wondering... what if people massively uploaded nightshaded images? Would that really mess most of generative AI? 🤔
stop calling it ART. Call it slop, please and thank you
I love your use of the term “prompters”. It’s so succinct.
It's pretty risky to say, but I'm still gonna say it: It was never the machine fault.
The more I watch videos about this whole situation with ai, the more Is, that ai is pictured as some kind of villain machine, that wanna steal our art. But that's not how it works. Ai is programmed to do only what people told it, and it's never been living on it's own. At least I hope so... So the judgments, that goes on ai, Is actually should go on people and companies that programmed the machine to do so. Trust me, ai would never awake on it's self one day and decided to steal from artists.
I think that the art community should deal not only with AI itself, but also with companies: write petitions, submit applications, arrange proteses. Anything to get through to people in the first place, not to a soulless machine
I FREAKING HATE AI SO MUCH WHY DO PEOPLE LIKE IT? DOESN'T IT FEEL BETTER TO MAKE IT YOURSELF AND IMPROVE? I HATE ANYONE WHO IS SELLING AI 'ART" ON WEBSITES AND THINKS AI DOES A BETTER JOB THAN AN ACTUAL ARTIST. AI IS STEALING FROM ARTISTS, NOW IM TOO SCARED TO POST MY FREAKING ART BECAUSE NOW YOU GOTTA BE SUPER CAREFUL BECAUSE AI CAN JUST STEAL IT EVEN DELETE UR WATERMARK. im gonna look more into cara i think thats the last social media thats safe for artists.. screw ai absolutely the worst thing that has been happening in 2023-2024. and if someone says my art looks like ai im gonna freaking lose my mind. ITS NOT ART IF YOU'RE JUST COPYING FROM EVERYONE NO CREDITS AND PEOPLE THINK THATS COOL. WHAT IS THIS SOCIETY WE ARE LIVING IN RIGHT NOW?!
we artists need to do something to stop ai from taking over our artwork
please i am BEGGING for this.
Yeah it’s messed up!
I really don’t see AI really taking down artists anytime soon. To me it going to be more a a useful tool for “ready made” concept art then anything really serious.
Yeah in the 3D space I compare it to things like auto retopology. It's quick useful and fast, but it's MUCH MUCH better to do it manually
Already took. Before for big project you needed 10 artists. Now - 2 is enough. Also, completely destroyed artists on stock markets.
What if someone screenshot-ed your artwork and uploaded it. Would the glaze or nightshade still work?
yes
It's comforting to know that as scary as generative AI is getting, it's also so fragile that a little thing like barely-perceptible squiggles on an art piece can make it fall to pieces.
Thank you so much for this video! I think me and alot of other artists really needed something with hope and information on how to fight back on AI art. Definitely trying to figure out how to learn Glaze and Nightshade. I also was wondering how you feel about the Adobe situation and if you are currently looking or going to use other software for your art. I would love to hear your recommendations as a replacement for Photoshop.
No but yes. Because consumers do not care if it's human made or not. it looks good, then it's good.
Aye it really is all down to that. Sure people can make arguments about how the REAL artists will never die because AI works are inherently soulless in their aesthetics and could never do X or Y but the fact is the average consumer is not going to care. Worse, its a distinction that companies don't care about, even those where quality art has been their defining hallmark are happily adopting AI. So Art won't die as a form of human expression but commercially speaking its pretty over and will largely serve as a hobby.
@@sum8601 I think the future is all about character building and story telling. Not just fancy looking good feeling kind shit that already all over the internet. People who can really build a world will be needed.
And? Consumers also want free shit. Should companies just make everything free, then? Or is it just the ones that you aren't boot licking?
@@AlexW1495 Yeah, consumers do want free shit, but how is that working out right now? Every price is up, more subscription on everything you can even imagine, free is usually the one cost most. Companies will not make things free unless it will make more money, like free to play. I don't know, do you think anybody can stop this? Most people say they care, but no they don't. Obviously not care enough to help the artist other than say I care.
wait i dont get it im like really stupid. so whats stopping them from screenshotting and ai training ur image even if u dont consent to it? like how would u know, is there evidence if they ai train ur art? o _O
If you think about it, AI needs to be fed a lot of art to start producing quality images. The less information it has, the less variety it can offer. Why? Because it essentially creates collages from existing images and blends elements together correctly. We are all being misled about what it really does. Our art came from years of human experience built up to what we have today. If we left AI with no input, it would create nothing, which proves it is a factory of stolen artwork mashed together constantly in a mathematical sequence.
its stolen everything from art station
Yes. Earlier models even generated recognizible watermark alongside image.
Man that Japan trip sounds awesome! Too bad im only a 17 year old brokie 😞 hope everyone who does go have fun!
Eww
@@PutineluAlin uhhhh
@@mangled_orgnz I had been on a trip to Japan. It’s a cool country and you’ll be amazed by it. I’ve brought some of my collectibles to Australia.
I love this, let's use Hobie Brown as the symbol of our artsy revolution🍻
This is some sci-fi shit, sign me up for rebellion!
AI certainly won't be the death of artists, as a whole, but it sure shows where the prorities of those using it lie. Hint; their main concern clearly isn't quality.
AI art is a great BLESSING for non artists people. Period! 99.99% artists will not allow their arts being used, even if it's fanarts. Imagine you want to make a book about an anime character. Of course you need LOTS of drawings. Imagine if u have to pay each picture. How much will you sell the book?! Will people want to buy EXPENSIVE and mind you UNOFFICIAL ANIME BOOK??? The answer is resounding N.O.!!! So yeah I'm a supporter of AI art! Hallelujah for AI art....
Um. I hope WIX isnt stealing art to feed into an AI.
I did not think of that being a possibility until you mention squarespace. I was using it for portfolio but i might just delete.
I'm concern now about that too
Hey Jackie!! I am a young drawer, I want to be a prop designer, an animator and game developer, but it genuinely seems like it’s getting hopeless with how AI is taking over, and in the near future it’s most likely that AI will take over. Would you recommend sticking with the passion or find a job that makes more money?
I wouldn't have to glaze or nightshade my art if these assholes weren't stealing artwork, why do I have to do this? All I want to do is create.........
Gen Ai for the most part has turned already existing problems in the art industry up to 11. Any results that they advertised especially in the early days were either not met or were greatly overhyped. Businesses have started to realize this too.
No problem here, you can continue create, while AI companies will make money from your work.
Then do it, no one is stopping you...
No one will ever ban you from creating anything, just don't expect to get paid for it. If you like it as a hobby, you will be fine.
But like everyone else crying about this, you people don't really care about the process, just for the economic benefits that allows you to make easy money. Typical hypocrites.
@@OnigoroshiZero Ok, first of all, making actual good art is not easy, it takes a lot of time and patience to be able to learn this skill in the first place, a skill that these bastards want to steal.
And second of all, this capitalist system we live in forces us to work in order to survive, so in order to dedicate more time to making my art, turning into a job has to be a goal, otherwise I need to dedicate 40 or more hours a week on some other bullshit job that I hate doing.
What am I suppose to do? Work in a job I hate, until I can hopefully retire in my 60's or 70's to finally be able to do the thing I wanted in the first place?
10:26 Ai Art could’ve been so cool but instead it’s being used for just one purpose. WHY???
Ai can't draw hands. You're fine.
😂
Frankly, it bothers me how much people are hyping this stuff because it really isn't all that amazing in the end. AI was impressive for the first 6 months or so, simply because we had never seen a computer generate entire finished pictures or texts before. By now, it's become very obvious just how limited it is. And I don't believe it's going to get much better. It might even get worse.
I'm also tired of hearing "AI can be a great tool". We have more than enough tools. Technology has made everything too comfortable already, limiting our own abilities to do things. It's time for people to embrace the discomfort of actually doing stuff for themselves again, or we'll all turn into those people from WALL-E.
I'm honestly thinking I will be working in retail in a couple of years, if AI continues to grow as fast as it did in the last few years.
Before we had NFT's, now AI, I dunno if it's a coincidences but it feels someone has a massive beef with us artist and wish to ruinned forever by comodifying it.
let's hope it will happen something similar to the bullsh*t that NFT was, something that eventually was a letdown.
No, it is the birth of a new era of my career where I can finally automate my comics process and not end up in the hospital again. I'm using Stable AI with my own character designs with my own Lora models in conjunction with 3D models. Educate yourselves and get better at your crafts! LOL
Its going to be so sad to hear about the creators of Glaze suddenly disappearing mysteriously. Theres no way these big corpos are going to let them keep doing this. Either the company will be harassed until they shutdown or theyll be bought out.
So glad you mentioned Brad Colbow’s video! He also mentioned you in one of his videos about art RUclipsrs he follows
WHAAA drop the vid pls

RUclips keeps hiding my comment when I add a link but it’s called “Art RUclipsrs I’m learning from right now” and it was uploaded 2 months ago
One of the issues I can’t stand with the AI fear mongering is all the people calling out other peoples artwork as being AI created when they don’t even know. I’ve even seen people say “if you don’t show a process video it isn’t real.” 🤯 So for every piece of art I post online I have to post a “making of” video to not have people claim it’s AI?! Come on people we are allowing our fear to divide the artist community, sending people into an AI witch hunting frenzy. We’re better than that.
Nah, AI is a threat much more grave than having to prove your work. If your work is the type that would attract doubts, then you have the capacity to show the process.
Over the past couple of months there have been multiple AI prompters pretending to be artists, posting obvious AI, getting called out, and doubling down. Only to get proven for the leeches they are.
Says someone with A-eyes! Just kidding/complimenting. This situation will even out, become paywalled and regulated, however it'll surely leave scars in the artistic and commercial landscape for good. Also, junior positions in just about all branches of digital work may get culled and the floor raised.
I don't like AI because as an artist it kills my potential to market my skills... Why pay me for my time and effort when one can go to _Dall-E_ , write a few words, and have the AI construct a digital piece that's even suitable for hard copy processing and framing (or even on a digital screen and frame) all for a fraction of what you would have to pay me or any other artist? Granted, it's machine made and next to worthless, but you can always change to another cheap image!
No, only the wealthy will appreciate art, as they always have, and that's an extremely niche market and always has been... Even moreso, since some of the rich are themselves now being "taken to the cleaners" by their own kind (and by the politicians) these days!
... of real DIGITAL artist.
Things are like the Wild West right now. Instead of keeping myself in the dark waiting for the best, I went to study AI, how it works, and its flaws. As far as I can tell, the idealization of Generative Art AI is the core problem. Art AIs were created with the philosophy of making money off the “do art yourself art at home or at work without the need of an artist” market, instead of being created as a tool to improve artists productivity. Besides the obvious ethical problems, AI also have a certain component of randomness that is its Achilles heels ATM (it could change with time, but for now, it is): You just don't know what you're gonna get with AI. If you are a layman in art, that detail is not important. If you know how to draw, you have one BIG advantage over it: Precision and intent.
Also, I personally think that the AI market is a time bomb, specially in the art sector. Two particular scenarios are very capable to happen in the future IMO: 1) AI complete saturates the market, no new art is produced to feed the machines, the industry is forced to go beck to use human art because there is no innovation. 2) The management of intellectual property becomes impossible. As things are now, not only artists were used as sacrificial lambs to feed the machines, but some big companies' art got in the blender too. They didn't notice yet, but their intellectual property is ALREADY being stolen, they just didn't felt in their pockets yet. And that, my people, is not a matter of maybe, is a matter of when. At some point, these big companies that now advocate so intensely about using AI to cut costs will be in the same position of the artists they fired: some AI replacing then. Expect heavy lobby from those companies to regulate or prohibit AI.
my guess is that we as a society will eventually get tired of ai generated soulless content, lack of human feeling in products and such, and re-discover the value of human art.. i hope. tho i feel like with how much numb consumerism and anti-intellectualism (?) there is, my guess aint gonna happen in my lifetime :")
Ai is just gonna make the lack of originality problem in mainstream media worse, because instead of artists doing their best with what greedy executives are forcing them to remake and reboot, greedy executives will be copy pasting the same things into ai over and over again without even a hint of variety. In the long run all AI is gonna do is make more people flock to indie animation in search of something authentic.
i saw the thumbnail cut off and thought it was saying AI is ending. got so excited there man
I am thinking about this topic for a while and I came to a conclusion. "Art has a purpose". AI art can make anything a human can make but there would be no purpose of that art.
Try looking at the video games these days. They are state of the art software, high visual fidelity, highly tested and polished but not "fun", why? Lack of purpose. People tend to mix good games/movies/music with nostalgia to prove that that it wasnt that better as you remeber it. Watched Rush Hour a few weeks back, and it was fun! Maybe you get my point.
The second point is about democratising art. This is a foolish and poorly constructed argument make by management people. AI will generate generic art and you'll consider it your work.
I want to end this comment by a line,
"AI art is like ready to eat noodle, you cant change the ingredients but can call youself a chef"
Define real artist though? In my book digital art isn't "real" art since the computer is doing most of the work.
