@@GruppeSechsehhhh people won't stop making art though. And it all looks cheap and swirly and the same it has a quality that everyone will notice and they won't want it because it'll look cheap. Like the live laugh love mugs.
This really spoke to me because I thought the same, it made me return to making art and enjoying it again because it feels like AI took the burden of making "productive" art exclusively for profit, i make art to express myself not to sell it
“there really is something in how Al art cant get human hands right vs. some of the oldest art we have is our handprints on a wall.” -random tumblr post I saw a couple days ago
I saw that too. It really is beautiful in how human we are, trying to leave our mark and create something that lasts by projecting ourselves on cave walls, versus robots just trying to steal a bunch of art and throw it all together, or trust the first thing it finds on reddit
to be fair, many human artists also struggle with hands if it isn't them tracing their own. For some reason hands are just the bane of drawers, human or otherwise.
There are some extensions that block out most popular ai results from google search. If you look up “ai art blocker” you should be able to find some. Also adding “before:2023” also gets rid of them.
I've gotten AI to make music and the only thing I do with it is write the most stupid, juvenile lyrics and get it to make a song that sounds like it has actual production value, and when it works it's like the funniest thing ever. Then I browsed the public libraries of other people's stuff and everyone else is taking it seriously, so it's all just generic noise. I guess it's the difference between using AI as a toy or as a tool, and as a tool it's usually pretty boring.
The single most damning question about "AI" that I've seen is "Why would I want to read a book that nobody bothered to write?". It perfectly applies to all creative arts in relation to AI, and you've pretty much nailed it here.
That's what I'm starting to ask and they have no answer to it. Their goal is to be the ones producing AI slop while the rest consume it and pay for it but they dont realize NO ONE wants to do that and not even them. They are ruining it for us all the nerd fucks.
exactly. when i read im paying attention to the authors literary voice and how they word things, how the narrator views the world and how it effects their decision making and dialogue. all that stuff is nonexistent with AI because it’s all taken from existing works. i’ll just read the existing work
It reminded me of this AI chat thing I used to play with in highschool (late 00s, early 2010s). I forget what it was called but it literally was just cyclical "conversations" where the AI would contradict itself. Glad to see nothing has changed in the last 10-15 years.
The fact that AI had to leech results from Reddit is already an example of people migrating away from algorithms. The whole reason people added 'reddit' at the end of their google searches in the first place was so that they'd get results from an actual human instead of ad recommendations
Every time I browse Reddit nowadays every few posts has a reply that’s obviously AI. Search engine AI feeding off Reddit reply AI does not sound like a good time. Maybe we should add weird characters like ‽ and ⅖ into posts so AI figures out it can use those characters and start getting even worse
No, we did that because google results suck, when even 10 years they would get you what you actually wanted and not what someone rigged their SEO to put in the first page.
@@acookie7548 I like the idea of everybody deliberately AI poisoning their Reddit posts, maybe we could make a browser plugin that replaces all characters with other Unicode characters that look exactly the same to humans but would result in uncommon or nonexistent tokens
“I want AI to do my laundry and dishes so that I can do art and writing, not for AI to do my art and writing so that I can do my laundry and dishes”- Joanna Maciejewska
Would you pay the same for an AI art as you would for real art? No one on earth would, AI will never replace artists if people don't value AI art as much. Instead of actual art, AI is mainly used for advertising and other situations where you just want a pleasant picture to look at rather than a handwritten detailed painting
@@qweee3913 thing is we already cant see the difference between one and the other, and AI is only gonna get better. So yoyll have 1 real artist and 9 fske artists using AI, and when youll be trhing to buy real art all 10 of them will claim its real.
or, more likely, so that you can do somebody else's laundry and dishes . . . somebody who works at a company that stole your art and writing to program a robot to make terrible knock-offs of it.
@@xitcix8360 The quote means that AI should do menial dumb labor while humans should be left to use their creativity. I don't get how dumb labor is more difficult than making good art.
I like the term "Zombie Internet" The uncanny, shambling thing with a false life approaching you isn't a human. It kinda looks like one, it's made from what used to be very human, but it's not. And it wants to consume you

it's so insane, there are several MOVIES in belarus cinema right now that are completely created using ai. honestly I want to have a tool to separate myself from any ai content on internet, it's so tiring
We're letting them open Pandora's Box because there's literally no way to stop them. Like seriously, how do you stop people from developing AI? And even if you could, how would you do it in EVERY COUNTY IN THE WORLD? Ban AI here, and all you're doing is giving China a completely monopoly on it
This helps feed into the fear-mongering that was the earliest advertising for AI. Hidden in the message that it is dangerous is the message that it is effective and powerful.
I liked most of the video, but I don't quite understand Drew's animosity towards AI generated videos. Unlike art or music models, video models don't steal anything from real artists. I have seen some of the videos featured by OpenAI, and while they were obviously cherry-picked, it still amazed me how their model has improved. You can recall how horrible and unrealistic videos like "Will Smith eating spaghetti" or "Rock eating rocks" were just a year ago, and now we have a car ride that you honestly can't tell from the real video. I really think Drew is being too harsh on a technology that is basically 2 years old, and that is rapidly developing.
@@ebashunegrovai video steals from artists as well, ai cannot generate anything from zero it needs material to do that and steals from videos taken by people that work on different fields, art, documentaries , films, etc, not to mention how unethical this all is as you can basically use private footage of people framing them for crimes, fake evidence or worse, we have already seen the consequences of that with deepfake with women and little girls who’s image and footage was used for revenge p*rn
@@ebashunegrov "The chase continues north in the city! Police helicopters are converging on Avenue 87 and Elm Grove Park!" Granger nodded. "They're faking. You threw them off at the river. They can't admit it. [...] So they're sniffing for a scapegoat to end things with a bang. Watch. They'll catch Montag in the next five minutes!" "But how-" "Watch." The camera, hovering in the belly of a helicopter, now swung down at an empty street. [...] On the screen, a man turned a corner. The Mechanical Hound rushed forward into the viewer, suddenly. [...] A voice cried, "There's Montag! The search is done!" The innocent man stood bewildered [...]. He stared at the Hound, not knowing what it was. [...] The Hound leapt up into the air [...]. Its needle shot out. [...] "Montag, don't move!" said a voice from the sky. The camera fell upon the victim, even as did the Hound. Both reached him simultaneously. The victim was seized by the Hound and the camera in a great spidering, clenched grip. He screamed. He screamed. He screamed! Blackout. Silence. Darkness. Montag cried out in the silence and turned away Silence. And then, after a time of the men sitting around the fire, their faces expressionless, an announce on the darks creen said, "The search is over. Montag is dead; a crime against society has been avenged." Darkness. [...] Granger turned [the viewscreen] off. "They didn't show the man's face in focus. Did you notice? Even your best friends couldn't tell if it was you. They scrambled it just enough to let the imagination take over. Hell," he whispered. "Hell." The above is a heavily abridged snippet from the climax of Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451. This, to me, is the true worry. AI may seem harmless now, but in what direction is it going? It's going for art now and as much as that sucks for artists, it isn't just artists who should be afraid. Art imitates life, so the better AI gets at mimicking art, the better it gets at mimicking life. We already see those who don't think critically and those on the fringes of society and the fringes of cognition (children and the elderly) being taken in by fraudulent AI images and stories. I've seen faked Joe Rogan podcast snippets and I know you've seen the fake image of the Pope in supposedly some new drip a few years back (the puffy white jacket image). So what happens as that continues to get better? What happens when someone deepfakes *you* doing something heinous? What happens when someone uses AI to create a video of something that "happened" ten years ago that changes history and manufactures a Mandela effect? That's essentially the power to rewrite history. Do you see, now, the true danger we have here? The Fermi paradox is the term for the contradiction between the seemingly high likelihood for the emergence of extraterrestrial intelligence and the lack of evidence for its existence. It has many proposed answers but one of the most popular ones is the Great Filter, the idea that there is some sort of milestone that a civilization has to pass in order to progress on the Kardachev scale and to be detectible. More than likely we have not hit the filter yet, whatever it may be - some think it's becoming a full Type 1 or Type 2 civilization. But what if AI is the filter? What if *this* is what does us in as a species. AI can indeed be a powerful and positive tool if ethically controlled and maintained, but considering our world gov'ts track record, more than likely it will be exploited and weaponized. Truth will get muddled because of AIs potential to overwrite and skew what we know. Art and culture, often all that remains and persists of ancient civilizations, will fade out and die. If you've watched Netflix's 3-Body-Problem, you may be familiar with just how damaging having something continually liquify truth in the field of science can be. All of that is why we should scrutinize and have a natural animosity to AI.
“It would take me ten years to do that.” “Okay. What’s the rush?” That really hit me. I needed this. AI defenders: please find somewhere else to argue.
there's so much pressure to achieve constantly and to do it at the youngest age humanly possible that it makes you feel like you just shouldn't try at all because you're too late :( i love rebelling against that and taking things at my own pace now
I'm currently rendering metal in an art piece - a process that makes my fingers hurt, my back ache, and my eyes become itchy as I stare at the screen and blend the same color in, over and over again. It's kinda grueling, I won't lie, n tbh I was sitting here pretty much sighing and kinda loathing the process, just telling myself "It'll be worth it, I'll be happy and proud by the end." - Because yes, I will!! But hearing the way Drew spoke in his 'final speech' genuinely made me lock in, and *ignore* the little pains, *ignore* the time it'll take me to finish, because I'm still nowhere NEAR close to done, and *ignore* the things that make my hobby a little bit of a slog sometimes! Because I'm CREATING!! And I'm creating PASSIONATELY!! Against people who can't even pick up a simple pencil!! And the best part, is that even though rendering metal sucks, because I'm a little new to it, I'm LEARNING! I see the way the colors blend, and change - what curves look proper, how the light SHOULD bend, where the shadows SHOULD darken! And of course, I'm learning how to do it easier, a little faster, shortcuts here and there to help me make something I'm proud of... But I'm still doing the WORK for that knowledge, and I'll still be doing the work to learn more when I do it again! Learning and creating are some of the best things you can do in life, and if you can't bother to pick up a pencil, instead of typing prompts into a generative AI that will never have HALF the heart human art has, that's just sad. Behind every piece was someone whose fingers hurt, back ached, and eyes became sore - even all the cringe bad art you *don't* like - because they had passion. Thank you, Drew, for seeing that :) back to the grind I go!!
im amused by this... metal. fingers hurt. back aches. creating. back to the grind. yet theres no actual metal being manipulated? *goes back to converting steel bar to blue chips that get stuck in hair, shoes, clothing, and all over lathe... then thumping it with a hammer for good measure* i may just be creating useless rubbish, and its frustrating, and its worthless... and... i forgot the point of all this...
the way that drew seemed so genuinely angry at the ai video of him is so real and seeing in real time somebody's likeness being taken clearly against their consent makes me feel genuine dread. it's so messed up.
I keep seeing "RUclipsr sings!" videos popping up, as well as a court case of a very messed up teacher using an AI voice to get the principal fired so no one would look into him. We're going to see more and more like this too
There are even AI-generated pornographic images and videos of people that exist, even celebrities. I saw an interview with the actress Xochitl Gomez, who was SEVENTEEN at the time, talking about how she's seen content like that made of her and how scary it is that she can't do anything about it. AI stealing people's likeness in general is horrible, especially for pornographic content, and there needs to be legislation, but the sad truth is that the people who have the power to create that legislation probably couldn't even figure out how to download a PDF.
@@5falltv895 my issue isn't that it's being misused to make people think it is real, I just personally believe that you have a right to your likeness and it's a crappy thing to do for somebody to use it in an ai without your consent. even if there's no immediate repercussion it still feels like a personal violation and from the seems of it that's how he felt also.
I feel really bad for artists who make hyper realistic art online and get bombarded with so many, "IS THIS AI??" stuff. Such a sad time for artists right now. :(
it sucks for everyone. the real artist and the user wanting to see real art. the artist has their stuff mixed into a flood of ai garbage so no one can find it and the user mostly sees ai garbage so you'll start to get paranoid that every art you see could be ai.
Lets not forget that not AI is the main issue here but shitty people. Of course it sucks for the artist to get drowned in AI content, but it's another issue.
I now want to abandon my dream of being at least a somewhat noteworthy artist so I can inspire others into my hobby or just wow them and make people happy because my art will be turned against me now and everyone I want to make happy and other artists. I’m tired of this nightmarish money-rotted dystopia the world is becoming.
I was there, on Twitter. Some AI image generator users were complaining about other users stealing their prompts. There were users... arguing that one should copyright prompts... so that others don't steal them. My brain is not in shape for these kinds of mental gymnastics.
@@s0LLagal Most NFTs were algorithmically generated, so the parts that made them up might have been created by humans*, but the final images were most frequently not. (*: later generations were/are not infrequently made from "generative AI" algorithms through and through.)
Honestly learning about that Netflix documentary makes me think Netflix should be sued for libel-it’s one thing to use factual information to sew a narrative about a murderer, but to confabulate fake images for the sake of that narrative and pass it off as the real thing is explicitly trying to forge a false narrative about a person’s life, regardless of their true character. shouldn’t be legal.
I think the worst thing I've seen as an AI search result was in response to the search; "I'm feeling homicidal urges," to which Google's machine responded that you should kill a homeless person, as they won't be missed. This whole thing is a nightmare, nobody who hasn't made their entire personality AI wants it anywhere near anything they want to use with any regularity.
That's not really true- PEW research center shows a majority (57%) want AI to help with household chores that are routine or basic online tasks People want selective use, not necessarily abolishment
The worst part is that I'm sure none of the people responsible for all this AI crap actually use it in their daily lives. No one who has the ability to create these kinds of tools would be able to look past the glaring imperfections. It's like how the people who own big social media websites would never let their kids use it. They know exactly what these things are, they see right through it, but it makes them money so it's everyone else's problem now
It feels like this “AI” craze is starting to transition from “wow, a computer made this? That’s such a cool novelty” to “this low effort garbage is everywhere and I don’t want to see it ever again”
@@Floridabaritoneboy to be fair, people use AI to refer to generative AI. Most don't complain about AI being used in an actually useful setting like GPS, because that's a good use of the technology, but when AI is used to just make a pretty picture it's just a waste of resources and research funds, while also having environmental problems, the fact that it could potentially impact the livelihood of artist, the fact it oftentimes steals from artists to train itself etc.

one thing that was interesting to see was how basically every subreddit quickly banned AI stuff as soon as the generators got popular, mostly not for ideological reasons, but because it’s consistently low-effort garbage that sucks
@@PunishedDadnah, there's really good stuff there, it just never hits the algorithms. Plenty of supportive communities and niche hobbies that were ripped from the regular web and consolidated onto reddit, sadly.
@@breannathompson9094yes! reddit is the go to place if you have a very specific issue. more than likely some tandom person on there 10 years ago had the same issues and in the commenst are the solutions. reddit is a godsend website- aside from the furry weeb cukture it propetuates.
@@issnotgenFRRR, which is why it’s so stupid that the ppl arguing in favor of AI are always like “oh but AI content is going to be so much better than human content ever could be” because the truth is, I don’t actually care if AI is better, I just want HUMAN-MADE CONTENT
Another fantastic video, Drew! Your humor and insights never fail to make my day. The way you break down topics with such wit and intelligence is truly unmatched. Keep up the great work! - a real comment that i wrote with my human mind after definitely watching the video
I admire the patience you must have to be able to put together a video like this. my take on AI, just like with ads and other blatant crap is basically just a lot of raging internal screaming. i will always value the patience and hard work that a human puts into even something like rants more than even the best AI generated thing out there
And that's the thing, AI generated content isn't even good to begin with. It's all soapy, and weird, and completely wrong about almost everything. It's just overhyped stuff, really.
Fun fact: there was an actual study about the efficacy of parachutes compared to normal backpacks when jumping from a plane. It found no difference at all. Though, it has to be remarked that, for ethical reasons, they could only perform this test with the plane standing still on the ground. It's also notable that this paper was published on april 1st. Obviously, this context was completely overlooked by the AI.
i mean, a closed parachute and a normal backpack probably are pretty similar anyways. if the parachute doesn't open, they'd certainly serve the same purpose
It did mention that the study was on planes "within a few feet above the ground" at the very end if you look at it, but it still blatantly misunderstood the question.
the rise of ai makes me think of that quote from jurassic park "they were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should." we keep pushing the boundaries of what's possible and for no apparent reason at all. it's all just progress for the sake of progress
If everything needed a "good reason" before someone tried it, new things would simply never happen. Most people were terrified of electricity at one point in time., my how things have changed.
@@snowthemegaabsol6819 With that statement, then it's ok for you to invent and try new things for malevolent purposes. I'd understand if you would say that inventions or new things comes to life because somebody just happen to have so much love for thermodynamics, spending their years self studying and tinkering then got lucky. That's understandable since human creativity is impressive and it's natural that we will create something accidentally. But deciding what happens after that or upon trying is crucial and it should be for a good reason. Anything that is vague or undefined has put people at risk but of course, you will never mention it since humanity is already benefitting. Hell yeah! electricity, right? As much as you have a point, I will agree with OP, we're lucky that it's us on top of this planet, still and for now. It's already a common knowledge that research facilities and military experiments at some point have developed something that they immediately have to get rid of because it can cause our extinction. If this continues especially with how fast-paced everything is, we just might encounter that one mistake again at the wrong process, wrong invention or wrong time and it might obliterate us for good.
it makes me think of another; "youre, uh, very determined, arent you? you'll never give up, even if theres, uh...absolutely NO benefit to persevering whatsoever. if i can make that clear. no matter what, you'll just keep going. not out of any desire for good or evil...but just because you think you can. and because you "can"...you "have to.""
Of course their "should" reasons for AI is to reduce labor costs, I don't think it's entirely curiosity that's driving these large AI projects backed with serious money
I'm glad someone isn't just saying "It's probably not ethical but you can't deny that its impressive" and turning to the more realistic "this looks like shit"
The fact that Netflix used AI images is so stupid. ignoring the fact that it's straight up lying, it changes a part of the story. Jennifer's parents were strict to the point that they controlled most of her life, so putting in fake images of her partying makes it seem like they couldn't be THAT strict which makes her motive for killing her parents seem less likely
@marzuqahmed218i don’t see how it could be an accident without a lot of willful ignorance, which basically isn’t an accident at that point-it’s a documentary, they do have to know where the images they use come from.
recently went to a Gale Ann Hurd Q&A where she was talking about how much she can't stand AI. ironic that people ignore the movie that screamed issues with ai at us lfmao
“Let the machines do your writing, creating and thinking for you so you can spend all your time just having fun!” Fun doing what though? What if I enjoy creating and thinking all for myself? And what happens when we have a society that no longer knows how to create? Or analyse? Or think? Excellent video! Thanks for sharing it!
If you were actually wondering what the "fun" is, it is money. Generative AI is a short term thing meant to save money on people. Then they give that money to investors/shareholders/chief officers so they can cash out at high revenue high return points before the value drops due to lack of quality. Just another way to turn goodwill into money for a quarter.
“if you’re consistently consuming media you don’t like in the year 2024, that’s a skill issue” is a quote that needs to be thrown at everyone on the internet
Honestly. As an avid music lover, I don't like the radio (revolutionary statement, I know) but I have found my good shit: power metal and symphonic metal. Those genres are so good. If you cannot find good music these days you're doing something wrong. My favorite band has to be Beyond the Black, the emotion in their songs is so good.
@@pigeontoes5421 no it’s not incorrect. People engage in hate because it feels rewarding in some way, otherwise they wouldn’t do it. Humans don’t do things they don’t doesn’t gives them a sense of reward. It’s the basic function of evolution, every human behavior is driven by feelings, punishment and reward, things that feel punishing we don’t do, and things that feel rewarding we continue doing. Sadness and pain are punishments because it’s a result of behaviors that doesn’t benefit reproduction or survival. Happiness and fulfillment is rewarding because it’s a result of behaviors that benefit reproduction and evolution. Hate can feel rewarding in many different ways, it could make someone feel superior, powerful, and often includes social interaction in some form.
RUclips mid roll and pre roll ads have been taken over the ridiculous AI images and voices, even large companies like MeUndies will use that disgusting smug old man voice
I dont think enough people are giving Drew credit for basically doing investigative journalism. He has pivoted to making actual video essays rather than just commentary and I like it a lot. Drew is too smart to be relegated to just talking about Team10. Although we love those videos too lol
This content is why I enjoy drew more than other similar creators that I used to love back in the day. I’m sorry but I can only watch so many Reality TV reaction videos
Claiming that AI has helped you “create art” is like going to McDonalds and ordering a burger and claiming that the employee “helped” you “cook” the burger. You told them what you wanted, and then you got it, but you didn’t make shit.
one of the first arguments against ai art was that its like getting a professional baker to make and decorate a cake for you and then passing it off as your own at a bake sale. you didnt make anything and youre taking credit for someone else's skill and labor
As a disabled artist, I’ve seen streamers modify their controllers to play with an amputated hand, artists with tremors who put a tennis ball on their ones, artists who learnt to draw using their feet. Ai does not help these individuals, adapting and overcoming does!
If they really cared about disabled people (such as myself) it would be way more helpful to fund research into conditions with little known about them, like my own fibromyalgia. The number one reason I will not practice or create anything is because of my chronic fatigue.
@@Lightning_bugsexactly! How about instead of spending millions of dollars on an AI that rips the creative freedom people with disabilities ARE capable of, you donate millions of dollars to funding research on the disabilities themselves or to programs that work to help disabled people be able to create for themselves in the first place?!
@@Lightning_bugsapologies, both the beauty of creation through humans and disability representation are things I’m highly passionate and get fire up about. I worked with students with disabilities when I was in high school. I often worked on creative things with them. We had a student with an extreme case of cerebral palsy. He can’t walk or talk on his own and his cognitive functions were impacted due to complications at birth. He was still such a happy person and I loved spending time with him. Fine motor control was hard for him, but I’d often join him in hand/ finger painting. I’d paint his hands different colors and I’d paint my own and we’d have fun putting color on paper. He loved this so much that he would jump with excitement in his wheelchair when the paint was brought out and he realized what we were about to do. We also did “paint balls” where he could pick up a ball dipped in paint and push it across a large paper and roll it and make some really cool abstract art. The most dangerous thing we let him do was hold a paintbrush and splatter on paper (dangerous in that we gave it to him and ran to avoid getting paint splatters on us lol). He loved creating those things. And AI would take away the innately human marks he made with his own hands and mind. He could point to the colors he wanted and liked. He would tell us when he thought he was done and satisfied with what he made by giving us a certain look or just setting the tool we gave him down. I’d hate for some dumb AI to come in and replace his joy of making art on his own, even if it’s not conventional art. Ack I get so fired up about this stuff lol 😅
something i saw recently was along the lines of "i want ai to do work so i can focus on art, not for ai to do art so i can focus on work" and i think that really encapsulates a lot of what i think about ai edit: this comment got more attention than i thought, idk, the most important thing i think i can say is that you should enjoy and invest in things that people create that you enjoy, especially when they create passionately. art is such an extremely human trait, it should be experienced at a human level.

that's the fun part about humanity right now. Its ran ENTIRELY by billionaires that want even more money. It has become virtually impossible for advancements in technology to help the average person. It is almost certain that every new invention for the rest of human history will be bought out and designed with the SOLE PURPOSE of making everyone else work more and enjoy life less, so that the billionaires can continue stealing everything and using the entire world for themselves.

Adobe Stock is genuinely awful. As a casual artist, when I need a reference photo of a REAL animal, it's really annoying to see their gross AI images show up at the top of the search results.
This got me wondering about the fact that all AI generated images are copyright free? So…how are they charging for something that doesn’t belong to anybody? Why not just nick it from adobe? (I tried googling the facts here, but had already forgotten that google’s now just a game of boggle with every word previously typed online and am too hungry to delve deeper)
The best advice i can offer people now is to use the library. Yes it requires more effort and much much more time, but, for now at least, older print media may be our only source of trustworthy images
This has been my exact issue. At least it's less bad with the more obscure animals, but it's really frustrating when you just want a decent reference image and it's all just garbage. Why would I want some wonky looking ai amalgamation when looking up 'grizzly bear photography'? it's a mess.

@@fineless You don't have to flatter or compliment someone to not be mean. Just continuing a conversation about whatever the video is about is fine as a comment.

We shouldn't take rage bait either. It does nothing.
someone once defended ai art to me saying 'I don't have the money to invest to learn art ai is helpful to me you're just privelaged' like my brother in christ I STARTED DRAWING on my NOTEBOOK IN CLASS during NOTES, it literally doesn't get more accessible than that
@@seigeengineno, people who are too lazy, insecure in their skills, and apathetic to the creativity and history of humankind that is found in art, are the problem. it's easy to now that ai isn't a problem. but wait until there isn't a shred of humanity left in the world, for better or worse. no, im not fear mongering. it's already happening right in front of u. you're willing to be ok with ceo's and billionaires replacing human ingenuity and the essence of our creativity? for what? a measly ai drawing anyone could do. ok with individuals excusing their own inept behavior and excuses ? i truly wonder why the rich and lazy people are so quick to replace one of the few things that we do so well. people look down on ai "artists" bc they have no true respect for the craft. for the thousands of years it was built on. the human history. it's not just pretty things to look at, it's revolutionary and tells us our history. it can insight change and send a message. why are people so apathetic to that? ai "artists" will never understand the joy of honing your craft to make something beautiful and sharing that with others. so sad 😭 there's no beauty in something that takes 5 mins to work on. like fast food. it's cheap and accesible, but doesn't mean anything compared to home cooked meals with ur family. doesn't beat waking up early to make something that's meaningful and delicious. that you spent hours working on. u can take the easy way, but will there be true satisfaction in it 🤔 yeah IDC if you read all of this thank u 😭
@@seigeengine Ah, yes. Because the person who actually has a developed skill is the insecure one and not the techbros cosplaying as something other than a drain on society.
@Wote89 how are ai artists insecure? They type words and get pictures out of it. Normal artists are the ones losing their minds over it. Literally the entire discussion surrounding ai art started because people are insecure about being replaced
@@therealstemarmanwould that not scare you? The possibility of being replaced by some robot created to do your job better than you? Actual artists have a right to be mad.
People claiming that entering a prompt means they're an artist is like paying for a commission from an actual artist and then claiming that as your own work
Difference being, the art isnt art any more than the technology itself may be. Its bot too bad fir visualizing concept work or note keeping, but its absolutely horrible at anything actually creative. It really illustrates the difference between genesis and genius.
Yeah I don't care how many hours they spend on typing prompts, they're still not doing the bulk of learning that any artists go through to get good: colour theory, lighting, anatomy, shading, etc. "I'm not talented". Yeah, a shit ton of good artists were never talented in the first place, becoming an artist takes hard work, not just un-earned talents.
@@pong9000It’s understood that they didn’t do it themselves though especially if their guests know they suck at DIY projects. Not a great comparison for AI art as making art to the general public is some mysterious ritual that they don’t have the discernment to call out when it’s fake.
The rise of ai on pinterest genuinely hurts me. I love to crochet so I usually turn to pinterest of inspiration and jfc it’s filled with ai generated pictures of crocheted animals and clothes. It’s so obviously fake too, the stitches make zero sense. It’s such an insult to all crochet artists :/
YES i've seen others talk about this and it's extremely predatory especially to beginners who are just learning and looking for projects to try out. i'm getting back into crochet after years of not doing it, and it's sad how much more cross-reference i have to do with patterns. and pattern makers need even more testers who are public figures in the community just to prove that their patterns are legit. when i was first getting into crochet i could go online, find a free pattern and print it off without worrying whether i was being scammed by something ai-generated
I've had the same problem trying to find interior design inspiration on Pinterest lately. It's all the most bizarre AI nonsense where half the furniture / items in the house are impossible structures that make no sense and serve no purpose. It seems to think that everyone feels their house with needless clutter, or even so many plants that it's basically a jungle. It makes it basically impossible to use it as any kind of inspiration or starting point for a space that just so happens to actually exist in the physical realm.
@@jeezdutsyes, just today I was looking for interior design photos which I’ve used for years as ideas and inspiration, and it was literally AI photo after AI photo of bedrooms full of stuff, clutter and unidentifiable objects.
Same!I feel bad for new crochet artists who see something ai created and feel bad because they can’t do it when in reality it’s physically impossible to do it
That's a lie. Of course he understands. Because money. And because plenty of people want to "make" something, but don't want to have to put in ten years to TRY to get good enough to simply have sufficient skill at making something, let alone marketing it to enough people ("if you GET LUCKY, people might actually see it!") for them to see it.
@@Ilyak1986 I believe this line in context was referring to the phenomenon of AI creating incredibly similar stock photos that already exist. So like...if you needed a photo of a horse, why do we need to replace the zillions of real photos of horses on google images with an AI photo of a horse that is probably worse. Hyper specific phenomenon that isn't actually adding up to any saved dollars and cents, it's just weird and unnecessary.
@@matthewmcguire5564 ah, in that case, sure. Could be for people trying to get the AI to make a better stock horse photo, or another stock horse photo. That leaves me scratching my head myself.
At first I was scared to lose my job since, I'm an artist; it was so much scarier to realize it wasn't just my job that was fucked but the internet as a whole
Actually the people who commission for AI stuff would've never commissioned you in the first place, I was worried at first too but then realized those who pay for art would never pay for generated images.
the entire media industry is toast what else would you expect when by posting their content on the internet and allowing big tech to forbid it's use by anyone only so they could deep learn data train on it to resell that to others "not stealing" "not copyright infrigement" as long as it's them that do it...when Shazam which was already worked behind the scenes a decade earlier but you had to call a phone line to identify tracks when shazam became a thing we all tought it was super cool how wrong we were it became a tool to distribute stars....yellow stars
30:57 this. making art is frustrating, but there is nothing more satisfying than seeing the finished product and feeling immense pride at how it turned out, and how people will react/interpret your work
1000%. I get the greatest dopamine hits when I have to do a ton of frustrating trial and error before finally getting something right. It's trained me to seek out challenges and it has caused me to improve and diversify my skills exponentially. Tech bros are vindictive towards artists because they see us as having some unfair privilege that they weren't lucky enough to be born with, but it's all work ethic.
32:01 reminds me of a tiktok comment interaction I saw once, someone said “this is gonna take 3 years” and the creator responded with “The time will pass anyways”
I think the real nail in the coffin for AI is that it looks cheap. Not the art itself, but the fact that a business using AI generated 'art' sends the message to customers and investors that it doesn't have the capital to pay a human being to create for them.
@@naesala Exactly. It's like yeah, you can technically show that you've "created" a product for your brand/company, but now I have zero faith in your business' ability to deliver anything real
That's an interesting thought. Thank you. My mentors told me to not settle for jobs that are below my abilities. And network with the people you aspire to be like. I mentor kids who live with incompetent and abusive adults. it's an important role and very rewarding.
It’s just bloating the internet man. It doesn’t help that people WILLINGLY use text to speech nowadays, so it’s hard to actually tell if some TikTok is a random guy or some fucking AI.
@@D44RK_Iced_Yogs Plus media literacy and critical thinking seems to be down the gutter. People think it's only old people that get scammed so easily but younger generations are so easily fooled by stuff like this (maybe not the art, lol). The amount of times I've been shown a TikTok that's just blatant misinformation with that TTS voice because the person who watched it doesn't do any of their own research and just believes whatever they see is terrifying. I'm genuinely scared for future generations raised on all this BS tbh
Pinterest has become unbearable due to ai. I'll search something on there and sometimes all the search results will be bad ai images. It's literally impossible to escape ai because it's on every app.
i use pinterest regularly (like, regular REGULAR) and im thankful that i never once encountered any AI contents, even if i did it wouldve been memes and / or ironic posts
I'm a pastry chef. We've started to get people coming in with AI generated pictures of cakes asking for us to recreate them. Spoiler alert we can't. And then they get mad at US for false advertising our abilities. Like ma'am, you're showing me a picture on your facebook feed from a profile just titled Cakes. WE DID NOT POST THE PICTURE. NOBODY DID.
This part of it all scares me because it makes me wonder if AI itself isn't really the threat, it's that people are actually dumb enough to be fooled by it in its current, very primitive state...
@@jeezduts You _wonder_ that? That's always been The Threat. To Everything. AI is just making it more obvious. Every day-ever since the internet became widespread-new depths of the gap, between the gullible and the intelligent, are discovered. Making it harder to ignore. But the _really_ scary thing is that the gullible breed at a higher rate, and the malleable spawn are abandoned, left to ferment into fools. Because manipulative buttcocks have a taste for *_mold._*
32:10 this genuinely helped me get back into drawing comics, which I enjoyed in middle school but then kinda just stopped. I kept thinking "my art isn't good enough to do the comics I want to make," but like... how's it gonna GET "good enough" if I don't START? Thanks, Drew. I've been having a lot of fun drawing Superman because of this video.
One thing that really pissed me off about AI, Pokemon held this art competition with 3 image submission limit, and the results ended with 6 ai images taking up winning spots all by the same guy just with slightly different enough names. 6 real, different artists could've had one spot each, but ALL SIX of those winning AI photos were all taken buy one guy and his little robot thief with grimmy little hands Edit: Apparently the images were disqualified! Thank god! And thank you to the people who let me know! But I'm still pissed he was able to win before pokemon disqualified the images Second edit: Please, politely, shut up. I don't care how convinced you ai bros are, ai "art" is stealing, it's easy as balls, and shouldn't belong in a fucking art contest. You have your fucking ai image contests, you don't need to get your grimey fucking hands on the actual talent it takes to make art.
there was also an ai art competition and the winning image was an actual photograph taken by an actual man with an actual camera. he said he hopes the audience wont be upset about being deceived, considering thats exactly what ai does. edit: *A winning image, i looked at the article it was 3rd place and got the peoples choice award. the photographer, Miles Astray was then disqualified
You can sell something that's not protected by copyright, it's just that someone else can also take that thing and sell it too. Or give it away for free with zero repercussion. In other words, stealing AI art isn't theft. :3
idk why ai was made and immediately used to do artistic things. Robots are supposed to make life easier, not take away the few joys we have access to. Make ai clean the trash out of the ocean or something idk
The AI was made to do these things first because they are the easiest thing to do. Robots have been making people's life easier for decades now. You don't have to do laundry, dishes, lawn mowing, mopping or vaccuuming anymore unless you are petty enough to count the one minute it takes to load and unload things from the machines or to empty the roomba...
AI was "immediately" made to do artistic things... AFTER it was first used to do the following: - Voice recognition to help those who can't type - Audio Transcription to help those who can't hear or can't easily understand voices - Diarization to improve the above - Translation to help people communicate across the world - Image classification - Facial recognition - Content moderation to vastly (but imperfectly) reduce the amount of spam, adult, and absolutely vile content that you see - Optical Character Recognition to allow us to convert huge amounts of our history into digital form where it can be preserved - Voice synthesis to help those who can't see - Detect fraudulent transactions to prevent people who steal your card information from impersonating you as successfully - Analyze and classify tumors, neurological disorders and bone fractures
"The best part is, I didn't make the music myself." THAT THREW ME. For me, the best part IS making the music myself. Heartbreaking to see your art reduced to this.

I'm nowhere near a musician but I like to tinger on the DAW and it is so fun once I get in the flow. Real ones know the best music comes from those who enjoy themselves making it.
My father is trying to learn to cook better, and has been asking AI for recipes. They’re often terrible, over or undercooked, and he refuses to try other recipes. The most frustrating part of this is that I am a professional chef in a fine dining restaurant. I can create recipes for him. I’ve asked him if he needs recipes, and he’s said he has them, and then they’re made by AI. He’s not a bad cook, he follows all the instructions, but the instructions are flawed, and he doesn’t understand that.
Wow that's dark. Sounds like the root issue (except for the AI itself) is that your dad, for whatever reason, rejects human content. Seriously, it's not a normal reaction to refuse recipes that work in favor of AI recipes that don't work...
This is my favorite video on youtube. It's not even a year old and yet I've returned to it time and time again, just to hear the incredible arguments laid out in a logical and compelling sequence. Drew perfectly encapsulates why a.i. is stupid, how everything it makes is horrible and soulless and why we shouldn't use it. Amazing video,
This is why stop using any spotify or any kind of app to listen music.Just download all the songs you have in ur playlist in ur memory card or phone storage.
There was drama about that forever ago Its chinese smartphone farms liking their own crap to get bigger revenue shares They just replaced crappy commissioned music with AI I guess This is nothing new idk how drew completely flubbed that topic
Crazy how my parents would constantly tell me to not believe everything I see on the internet a couple years ago. Now they believe literally every AI post they see on Facebook and it makes me sad
Not just on Facebook it’s literally everywhere even the news! They seem to believe it all and don’t think to do 1 minute of research. Nope, they hear it and eat it up then spew their beliefs and use their age to claim they’re correct.
I feel like I need to have a sit-down talk with my parents about how to spot AI-generated images on facebook so they don't get fooled. I'm worried about them.
I unfortunately work in big tech and those "delusional nerds defending AI" are the ones running the show. Our CTO unironically used an AI Avatar in a a meeting with 500 professional post secondary educated adults and then was like "I bet you didn't know that wasn't me!"
I am 44 years old and I grew up along with the internet literally. I still do not understand exactly when people went from, don't believe anything on the internet cause its the internet. To OMG it's more real then real life and I will die to defend it.
Right!!! And the “well google says this dadada” like even GOOGLE PRE-AI wasnt the best source of information if you dont know how to research your sources.
I mean I don’t think that’s necessarily the same group of people. Imo, people who are engaging with AI are mostly duped people ignorant that it’s AI (and therefore not a demographic who ever internalized “don’t believe the internet”) or greedy opportunists looking to dupe people. In which case their philosophy is “go ahead and believe everything you see on the internet so I can exploit your dumb ass.” The other group of people, who say it’s the greatest most beautiful future for all mankind or whatever, are a negligible minority of basement dwelling contrarians and hopefully will remain that way. But who knows.
That's actually a really interesting point because it's really hard to pin exactly when it happened. I feel like it had to be a generational shift, which is I guess a little comforting, because kids growing up during this stage aren't going to believe a thing anywhere from anyone. Hopefully.
Well the issue is philosophy isn't mandatory. And thats where you are basically taught to think critically when reading ect. The internet just requires the same skepticism as newspapers to navigate. And the moment we stopped teaching kids about editorial narrative and trying to read between the lines. Was the moment people stopped needing it
My biggest concerns are AI voices and AI music. I love making my own music and I love doing voice work, but neither of those things seem like they're going to be profitable hobbies in the unsettlingly near future.

I went to buy space-themed stickers for my daughter on Amazon, and the first dozen or so listings were just collections of AI-generated art stickers. I knew this would be a problem. On her last day of school, she came home with AI-generated art stickers from her school. They are hideous. One is a parrot without an eye and it has a separate tiny bird for a cheek. It upsets me sooooooo bad. Especially as an artist who wanted to really put myself out there... And now everything is gunked up. The internet has cancer. The internet is sick with an aggressive cancer.
That really struck me, calling AI cancer for the internet. You're right. That's one of the most well put things I've ever heard. It's excessive, it's bloat, it disguises itself as real, healthy art and it suffocates all things real and genuine until the internet dies. That just makes so much sense to me.
The irony is that the cancer is humanity. AI hasn't become sentient. It's not doing this itself. It's humans that are using AI to do this. WE are the problem.
There is an AI commercial where a kid comes up with a story and the parents use AI to make art for it. It pisses me off every time. The kid is like, 6, let the kid draw it themselves because 1. That's much more special than generated trash, and 2. By encouraging your child to draw their own art they could build up that skill and perhaps find their talent or future profession. If the kid is coming up with the story, let that creativity thrive and don't teach them to rely on a computer to finish the details for them.
i also think that’s taking away something that could be an important part of their development, where it could stifle the child’s creativity and imagination by not allowing them to express themselves or come up with their own ideas
No matter how good the AI with Adobe Subscription Price is, it will always try to impersonate the Japanese Sakura Tree and the Asian artist who'd drawn on SAI and Clip Studio Paint since 5 years old. AI is about hustle, not art. Drawing is art. When everyone hustles, no one will be.
"AI is great because the less artistically talented people can still create great images!" "So we should incentivise people learning to create real art so that the AI isn't needed?" "No, that's stupid."
as someone who recently got into drawing, I can say that doing something and knowing you made it entirely with your own hands is a high that can't be replicated. Also, I have full control and can make the finished drawing look exactly how I want it to (besides skill issues) without writing an essay
I follow a lot of artists on Twitter and they've started putting an x over their art just so Twitter doesn't steal it to train their ai. I'm so tired of these big companies taking advantage of people like that.
AI is KILLING me when I’m looking for art references. I wanted to see a body type that might be considered “ugly” so I could draw a monster lady. I searched troll woman, orc woman, ogre woman, dwarf woman and ALL of the results are pretty, slim, anime styled AI girls. Like WTF??? The “prettying” of art is driving me up the wall
YES ONG the other day i tried to draw my oc in fantasy armor and all i found for reference are those 'perfect' anime girls with massive badonkadonks and pixar-like artstyle of 3d animation
Now AI can do almost everything. Not only generating images and "art" with almost 99% accuracy, it can generating almost photorealistic videos and even generating various music audios! And all it takes is only 3 years. This is very scary and concerning for the real artists out there
I saw a Twitter post saying something along the lines of “AI art convinced me of the existence of the human soul because I’ve seen what art looks like without it” and…yeah, that about sums it up.
I didn't believe in human soul until I saw "art" created by AI. I thought corporate music, stock photos and footage and direct to video films were soulless, but all of those things have so much more soul than anything AI has ever created.
The amount of times my mum and my brother have tried showing me one of those "This is how easily I make $15K per week by doing this thing" videos, it's genuinely so frustrating to have to counter ridiculous arguments that I'm not even trying to engage with bc they don't understand I have a soul and a conscience lmfao
in 1997 or around there, the goverment of Canada made a commercial about a house hippo. The Hippo looked real and the commercial could fool you into thinking house hippos were real. and then it said: Don't believe everything you see on television. Never seen a commercial age so well for the internet
It’s weird that we’ve heard of people going to jail for forging paintings and selling them (something that is still a lot of work despite the intrinsic thievery of it), yet it’s legal to completely steal the entire history of hundreds of thousands of artists and produce derivative work with zero effort at all.
Yeah forgery is only illegal if you try to sell it as authentic. It is also actually more difficult than the original was in most cases. The AI thing is a big problem.
it's cuz the monetary value of art is in the provenance, not the beauty. to me it's kinda similar to how human deaths don't often spark wars, but destruction of or theft of property often does.
AI does not democratize art, free, open-source software like Blender does. Before Blender was a thing, the only way you could make quality 3D animations and renders was expensive software that costs thousands of dollars, but after Blender basically anyone could do it for free. We need more stuff like Blender and less AI.
ai has become so invasive that when i was doing a fuckin school project that needed me to use stock photos of people i had to spend like an extra *15 minutes* trying to find something that wasn't AI. like it didn't make it easier, it didn't help me out, it just made everything harder because every image available on google looked like absolute shit.
i visited a game shop and almost as soon as i walked in i noticed it was FILLED TO THE BRIM with ai images of pokémon characters on the walls, and they were selling tumblers with ai images on them aswell. it made me feel so uneasy. and then a while later i saw an ai generated logo on the side of a car
I literally saw an ai ad on the bus stop last month. It was Einstein, like you can't just use a normal photo?? it was an ad for ai tutoring, too, which makes it way worse...

It will be difficult to get Facebook to remove AI generated content when their metrics for success are grounded in tracking interactions on that very content, and unfortunately, AI content is driving the most interactions. “It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends upon his not understanding it!” -Upton Sinclair, 1934

As a musician myself, it really hit me hard when you showed that Spotify is likely publishing AI songs and putting them in recommended Playlists. This is genuinely devastating.
I can agree with this as an artist. While I do traditional art, I see a lot of other artists getting their art stolen and turned into ai art that looks ten times worse and just goofy. It’s really sad. You can’t feel the emotion behind the art and it’s just…cold
i use soundcloud instead of spotify, and i've still seen AI generated content, but it's never popular, usually like 3 likes. really sad. but it isn't pushed at all. soundcloud also creates playlists for things like black history month and pride. also, it has helped me find some very small artists that make awesome music. i have extremely specific tastes, so i don't normally find new artists unless i actively seek them out, but soundcloud totally fixed that for me.
"You guys remember when they told us AI was going to do all the menial labor and let us have the arts to do with all our free time? Now the machines are making all the art and the essential workers are still working themselves to death in three jobs..." I think about that sentiment a lot when this stuff comes up.

Actually having fun making something? But that's not using 100% of your time efficiently!
I've gotten AI to make music and the only thing I do with it is write the most stupid, juvenile lyrics and get it to make a song that sounds like it has actual production value, and when it works it's like the funniest thing ever. Then I browsed the public libraries of other people's stuff and everyone else is taking it seriously, so it's all just generic noise. I guess it's the difference between using AI as a toy or as a tool, and as a tool it's usually pretty boring.
The single most damning question about "AI" that I've seen is "Why would I want to read a book that nobody bothered to write?". It perfectly applies to all creative arts in relation to AI, and you've pretty much nailed it here.
this is so real
That's what I'm starting to ask and they have no answer to it. Their goal is to be the ones producing AI slop while the rest consume it and pay for it but they dont realize NO ONE wants to do that and not even them. They are ruining it for us all the nerd fucks.
i think it’s more useful for brainstorming and editing writing but not doing the entire thing

The fact that AI had to leech results from Reddit is already an example of people migrating away from algorithms. The whole reason people added 'reddit' at the end of their google searches in the first place was so that they'd get results from an actual human instead of ad recommendations
Every time I browse Reddit nowadays every few posts has a reply that’s obviously AI. Search engine AI feeding off Reddit reply AI does not sound like a good time. Maybe we should add weird characters like ‽ and ⅖ into posts so AI figures out it can use those characters and start getting even worse
No, we did that because google results suck, when even 10 years they would get you what you actually wanted and not what someone rigged their SEO to put in the first page.

Would you pay the same for an AI art as you would for real art? No one on earth would, AI will never replace artists if people don't value AI art as much. Instead of actual art, AI is mainly used for advertising and other situations where you just want a pleasant picture to look at rather than a handwritten detailed painting

I liked most of the video, but I don't quite understand Drew's animosity towards AI generated videos. Unlike art or music models, video models don't steal anything from real artists. I have seen some of the videos featured by OpenAI, and while they were obviously cherry-picked, it still amazed me how their model has improved. You can recall how horrible and unrealistic videos like "Will Smith eating spaghetti" or "Rock eating rocks" were just a year ago, and now we have a car ride that you honestly can't tell from the real video. I really think Drew is being too harsh on a technology that is basically 2 years old, and that is rapidly developing.

The above is a heavily abridged snippet from the climax of Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451. This, to me, is the true worry. AI may seem harmless now, but in what direction is it going? It's going for art now and as much as that sucks for artists, it isn't just artists who should be afraid. Art imitates life, so the better AI gets at mimicking art, the better it gets at mimicking life. We already see those who don't think critically and those on the fringes of society and the fringes of cognition (children and the elderly) being taken in by fraudulent AI images and stories. I've seen faked Joe Rogan podcast snippets and I know you've seen the fake image of the Pope in supposedly some new drip a few years back (the puffy white jacket image). So what happens as that continues to get better? What happens when someone deepfakes *you* doing something heinous? What happens when someone uses AI to create a video of something that "happened" ten years ago that changes history and manufactures a Mandela effect? That's essentially the power to rewrite history. Do you see, now, the true danger we have here?
The Fermi paradox is the term for the contradiction between the seemingly high likelihood for the emergence of extraterrestrial intelligence and the lack of evidence for its existence. It has many proposed answers but one of the most popular ones is the Great Filter, the idea that there is some sort of milestone that a civilization has to pass in order to progress on the Kardachev scale and to be detectible. More than likely we have not hit the filter yet, whatever it may be - some think it's becoming a full Type 1 or Type 2 civilization. But what if AI is the filter? What if *this* is what does us in as a species. AI can indeed be a powerful and positive tool if ethically controlled and maintained, but considering our world gov'ts track record, more than likely it will be exploited and weaponized. Truth will get muddled because of AIs potential to overwrite and skew what we know. Art and culture, often all that remains and persists of ancient civilizations, will fade out and die. If you've watched Netflix's 3-Body-Problem, you may be familiar with just how damaging having something continually liquify truth in the field of science can be.
All of that is why we should scrutinize and have a natural animosity to AI.

I'm currently rendering metal in an art piece - a process that makes my fingers hurt, my back ache, and my eyes become itchy as I stare at the screen and blend the same color in, over and over again. It's kinda grueling, I won't lie, n tbh I was sitting here pretty much sighing and kinda loathing the process, just telling myself "It'll be worth it, I'll be happy and proud by the end." - Because yes, I will!! But hearing the way Drew spoke in his 'final speech' genuinely made me lock in, and *ignore* the little pains, *ignore* the time it'll take me to finish, because I'm still nowhere NEAR close to done, and *ignore* the things that make my hobby a little bit of a slog sometimes! Because I'm CREATING!! And I'm creating PASSIONATELY!! Against people who can't even pick up a simple pencil!! And the best part, is that even though rendering metal sucks, because I'm a little new to it, I'm LEARNING! I see the way the colors blend, and change - what curves look proper, how the light SHOULD bend, where the shadows SHOULD darken! And of course, I'm learning how to do it easier, a little faster, shortcuts here and there to help me make something I'm proud of... But I'm still doing the WORK for that knowledge, and I'll still be doing the work to learn more when I do it again! Learning and creating are some of the best things you can do in life, and if you can't bother to pick up a pencil, instead of typing prompts into a generative AI that will never have HALF the heart human art has, that's just sad. Behind every piece was someone whose fingers hurt, back ached, and eyes became sore - even all the cringe bad art you *don't* like - because they had passion. Thank you, Drew, for seeing that :) back to the grind I go!!
Don't forget there are tutorials to help you if you get stuck on something, and remember to take breaks once every now and then

the way that drew seemed so genuinely angry at the ai video of him is so real and seeing in real time somebody's likeness being taken clearly against their consent makes me feel genuine dread. it's so messed up.
I keep seeing "RUclipsr sings!" videos popping up, as well as a court case of a very messed up teacher using an AI voice to get the principal fired so no one would look into him. We're going to see more and more like this too
There are even AI-generated pornographic images and videos of people that exist, even celebrities. I saw an interview with the actress Xochitl Gomez, who was SEVENTEEN at the time, talking about how she's seen content like that made of her and how scary it is that she can't do anything about it. AI stealing people's likeness in general is horrible, especially for pornographic content, and there needs to be legislation, but the sad truth is that the people who have the power to create that legislation probably couldn't even figure out how to download a PDF.
Idk Id be more upset if a meatcannon video of me popped up. And people love those!
And nobody thinks either media is real so that argument is invalid
@@5falltv895 my issue isn't that it's being misused to make people think it is real, I just personally believe that you have a right to your likeness and it's a crappy thing to do for somebody to use it in an ai without your consent. even if there's no immediate repercussion it still feels like a personal violation and from the seems of it that's how he felt also.
I feel really bad for artists who make hyper realistic art online and get bombarded with so many, "IS THIS AI??" stuff. Such a sad time for artists right now. :(
it sucks for everyone. the real artist and the user wanting to see real art.
the artist has their stuff mixed into a flood of ai garbage so no one can find it
and the user mostly sees ai garbage so you'll start to get paranoid that every art you see could be ai.
Lets not forget that not AI is the main issue here but shitty people. Of course it sucks for the artist to get drowned in AI content, but it's another issue.
I now want to abandon my dream of being at least a somewhat noteworthy artist so I can inspire others into my hobby or just wow them and make people happy because my art will be turned against me now and everyone I want to make happy and other artists.

It's the same shit with techbros whining about copyright over NFTs, but at least the NFTs were made by a human
@@s0LLagal Most NFTs were algorithmically generated, so the parts that made them up might have been created by humans*, but the final images were most frequently not. (*: later generations were/are not infrequently made from "generative AI" algorithms through and through.)
Honestly learning about that Netflix documentary makes me think Netflix should be sued for libel-it’s one thing to use factual information to sew a narrative about a murderer, but to confabulate fake images for the sake of that narrative and pass it off as the real thing is explicitly trying to forge a false narrative about a person’s life, regardless of their true character. shouldn’t be legal.
I think the worst thing I've seen as an AI search result was in response to the search; "I'm feeling homicidal urges," to which Google's machine responded that you should kill a homeless person, as they won't be missed.
This whole thing is a nightmare, nobody who hasn't made their entire personality AI wants it anywhere near anything they want to use with any regularity.
Meta has tons of Muslim and Islamic AI crap and non is removed as Meta has become Allah loving instead of saying no to religions
That's not really true- PEW research center shows a majority (57%) want AI to help with household chores that are routine or basic online tasks
People want selective use, not necessarily abolishment
The worst part is that I'm sure none of the people responsible for all this AI crap actually use it in their daily lives. No one who has the ability to create these kinds of tools would be able to look past the glaring imperfections. It's like how the people who own big social media websites would never let their kids use it.

Fun fact: there was an actual study about the efficacy of parachutes compared to normal backpacks when jumping from a plane. It found no difference at all. Though, it has to be remarked that, for ethical reasons, they could only perform this test with the plane standing still on the ground. It's also notable that this paper was published on april 1st. Obviously, this context was completely overlooked by the AI.
i mean, a closed parachute and a normal backpack probably are pretty similar anyways. if the parachute doesn't open, they'd certainly serve the same purpose

That's understandable since human creativity is impressive and it's natural that we will create something accidentally.

Anything that is vague or undefined has put people at risk but of course, you will never mention it since humanity is already benefitting. Hell yeah! electricity, right?
As much as you have a point, I will agree with OP, we're lucky that it's us on top of this planet, still and for now. It's already a common knowledge that research facilities and military experiments at some point have developed something that they immediately have to get rid of because it can cause our extinction. If this continues especially with how fast-paced everything is, we just might encounter that one mistake again at the wrong process, wrong invention or wrong time and it might obliterate us for good.

If you were actually wondering what the "fun" is, it is money. Generative AI is a short term thing meant to save money on people. Then they give that money to investors/shareholders/chief officers so they can cash out at high revenue high return points before the value drops due to lack of quality.

saying ur an ai artist is like getting a builder to build a house for u and saying "Yeah, im a builder"
Claiming that AI has helped you “create art” is like going to McDonalds and ordering a burger and claiming that the employee “helped” you “cook” the burger. You told them what you wanted, and then you got it, but you didn’t make shit.
@@Jaysearching wtf are you not agreeing with?
@@2amCryptid Hate mobs when someone only agrees with 99% of their script:
one of the first arguments against ai art was that its like getting a professional baker to make and decorate a cake for you and then passing it off as your own at a bake sale. you didnt make anything and youre taking credit for someone else's skill and labor
@@Jaysearchingam curious in what way you don’t agree? Genuinely wanna know other perspectives as someone incredibly anti-AI myself
@thatfunkadeus Because any large group of people who disagree with you are, naturally, a hate mob.
As a disabled artist, I’ve seen streamers modify their controllers to play with an amputated hand, artists with tremors who put a tennis ball on their ones, artists who learnt to draw using their feet. Ai does not help these individuals, adapting and overcoming does!
If they really cared about disabled people (such as myself) it would be way more helpful to fund research into conditions with little known about them, like my own fibromyalgia. The number one reason I will not practice or create anything is because of my chronic fatigue.
@@Lightning_bugsexactly! How about instead of spending millions of dollars on an AI that rips the creative freedom people with disabilities ARE capable of, you donate millions of dollars to funding research on the disabilities themselves or to programs that work to help disabled people be able to create for themselves in the first place?!
@@Lightning_bugsapologies, both the beauty of creation through humans and disability representation are things I’m highly passionate and get fire up about.
I worked with students with disabilities when I was in high school. I often worked on creative things with them. We had a student with an extreme case of cerebral palsy. He can’t walk or talk on his own and his cognitive functions were impacted due to complications at birth. He was still such a happy person and I loved spending time with him. Fine motor control was hard for him, but I’d often join him in hand/ finger painting. I’d paint his hands different colors and I’d paint my own and we’d have fun putting color on paper. He loved this so much that he would jump with excitement in his wheelchair when the paint was brought out and he realized what we were about to do. We also did “paint balls” where he could pick up a ball dipped in paint and push it across a large paper and roll it and make some really cool abstract art. The most dangerous thing we let him do was hold a paintbrush and splatter on paper (dangerous in that we gave it to him and ran to avoid getting paint splatters on us lol). He loved creating those things. And AI would take away the innately human marks he made with his own hands and mind. He could point to the colors he wanted and liked. He would tell us when he thought he was done and satisfied with what he made by giving us a certain look or just setting the tool we gave him down. I’d hate for some dumb AI to come in and replace his joy of making art on his own, even if it’s not conventional art. Ack I get so fired up about this stuff lol 😅
Nobody [in a position of power] wants people adapting, and especially not overcoming.
I watched a video the other day of an artist that learned to draw holding a pencil with his mouth. He's a quadriplegic.
We're at peak Hapsburg AI, where the AI is training off AI so much, the inbreeding has killed their kids.

congrats on the Mike’s Mic youtube video of the year win 👏 👏
something i saw recently was along the lines of "i want ai to do work so i can focus on art, not for ai to do art so i can focus on work" and i think that really encapsulates a lot of what i think about ai
edit: this comment got more attention than i thought, idk, the most important thing i think i can say is that you should enjoy and invest in things that people create that you enjoy, especially when they create passionately. art is such an extremely human trait, it should be experienced at a human level.

in place of your word 'work' Otherwise, it is the exact same wording as yours.

that's the fun part about humanity right now. Its ran ENTIRELY by billionaires that want even more money. It has become virtually impossible for advancements in technology to help the average person. It is almost certain that every new invention for the rest of human history will be bought out and designed with the SOLE PURPOSE of making everyone else work more and enjoy life less, so that the billionaires can continue stealing everything and using the entire world for themselves.

Adobe Stock is genuinely awful.
As a casual artist, when I need a reference photo of a REAL animal, it's really annoying to see their gross AI images show up at the top of the search results.
This got me wondering about the fact that all AI generated images are copyright free? So…how are they charging for something that doesn’t belong to anybody? Why not just nick it from adobe?
(I tried googling the facts here, but had already forgotten that google’s now just a game of boggle with every word previously typed online and am too hungry to delve deeper)
for real. i was looking for face references for a character with a specific type of face in mind and half of what i found was unusable ai shit
The best advice i can offer people now is to use the library. Yes it requires more effort and much much more time, but, for now at least, older print media may be our only source of trustworthy images
This has been my exact issue. At least it's less bad with the more obscure animals, but it's really frustrating when you just want a decent reference image and it's all just garbage. Why would I want some wonky looking ai amalgamation when looking up 'grizzly bear photography'? it's a mess.
this is why pirating adobe products is okay

You'd be better off keeping to yourself with how the internet and its culture is evolving (or devolving).

someone once defended ai art to me saying 'I don't have the money to invest to learn art ai is helpful to me you're just privelaged' like my brother in christ I STARTED DRAWING on my NOTEBOOK IN CLASS during NOTES, it literally doesn't get more accessible than that
@@seigeengineno, people who are too lazy, insecure in their skills, and apathetic to the creativity and history of humankind that is found in art, are the problem. it's easy to now that ai isn't a problem. but wait until there isn't a shred of humanity left in the world, for better or worse. no, im not fear mongering. it's already happening right in front of u. you're willing to be ok with ceo's and billionaires replacing human ingenuity and the essence of our creativity? for what? a measly ai drawing anyone could do. ok with individuals excusing their own inept behavior and excuses ?
i truly wonder why the rich and lazy people are so quick to replace one of the few things that we do so well. people look down on ai "artists" bc they have no true respect for the craft. for the thousands of years it was built on. the human history. it's not just pretty things to look at, it's revolutionary and tells us our history. it can insight change and send a message. why are people so apathetic to that?
ai "artists" will never understand the joy of honing your craft to make something beautiful and sharing that with others. so sad 😭 there's no beauty in something that takes 5 mins to work on. like fast food. it's cheap and accesible, but doesn't mean anything compared to home cooked meals with ur family. doesn't beat waking up early to make something that's meaningful and delicious. that you spent hours working on. u can take the easy way, but will there be true satisfaction in it 🤔

@Wote89 how are ai artists insecure? They type words and get pictures out of it. Normal artists are the ones losing their minds over it. Literally the entire discussion surrounding ai art started because people are insecure about being replaced
@@therealstemarmanwould that not scare you? The possibility of being replaced by some robot created to do your job better than you? Actual artists have a right to be mad.
People claiming that entering a prompt means they're an artist is like paying for a commission from an actual artist and then claiming that as your own work
Plenty of homeowners talk of how they expanded their kitchen and how they built the carport and re-paved the patio, to the barbecue guests.
@pong9000
There's a difference between "I repaved the driveway" and "I had the driveway repaved." One of them would be a lie, even in your scenario.
Difference being, the art isnt art any more than the technology itself may be.
Its bot too bad fir visualizing concept work or note keeping, but its absolutely horrible at anything actually creative. It really illustrates the difference between genesis and genius.
Yeah I don't care how many hours they spend on typing prompts, they're still not doing the bulk of learning that any artists go through to get good: colour theory, lighting, anatomy, shading, etc. "I'm not talented". Yeah, a shit ton of good artists were never talented in the first place, becoming an artist takes hard work, not just un-earned talents.
@@pong9000It’s understood that they didn’t do it themselves though especially if their guests know they suck at DIY projects. Not a great comparison for AI art as making art to the general public is some mysterious ritual that they don’t have the discernment to call out when it’s fake.
"How are you gonna do something for 10 years that you wont even do for a day" a lot more people need to hear this lol
The rise of ai on pinterest genuinely hurts me. I love to crochet so I usually turn to pinterest of inspiration and jfc it’s filled with ai generated pictures of crocheted animals and clothes. It’s so obviously fake too, the stitches make zero sense. It’s such an insult to all crochet artists :/
This!!! It’s been so annoying when at first it looks like a cool pattern until you really look at the photo and it’s impossible stitches
YES i've seen others talk about this and it's extremely predatory especially to beginners who are just learning and looking for projects to try out. i'm getting back into crochet after years of not doing it, and it's sad how much more cross-reference i have to do with patterns. and pattern makers need even more testers who are public figures in the community just to prove that their patterns are legit. when i was first getting into crochet i could go online, find a free pattern and print it off without worrying whether i was being scammed by something ai-generated
I've had the same problem trying to find interior design inspiration on Pinterest lately. It's all the most bizarre AI nonsense where half the furniture / items in the house are impossible structures that make no sense and serve no purpose. It seems to think that everyone feels their house with needless clutter, or even so many plants that it's basically a jungle. It makes it basically impossible to use it as any kind of inspiration or starting point for a space that just so happens to actually exist in the physical realm.
@@jeezdutsyes, just today I was looking for interior design photos which I’ve used for years as ideas and inspiration, and it was literally AI photo after AI photo of bedrooms full of stuff, clutter and unidentifiable objects.

@@Ilyak1986 I believe this line in context was referring to the phenomenon of AI creating incredibly similar stock photos that already exist. So like...if you needed a photo of a horse, why do we need to replace the zillions of real photos of horses on google images with an AI photo of a horse that is probably worse.
Hyper specific phenomenon that isn't actually adding up to any saved dollars and cents, it's just weird and unnecessary.

Actually the people who commission for AI stuff would've never commissioned you in the first place, I was worried at first too but then realized those who pay for art would never pay for generated images.
Yup, basically anyone who came to the internet for anything genuine has lost what they came there for.

@@sdghetufgkjsdfgI feel like this is a great point. If you actually pay for art, you'd definetly feel the difference anyway.

30:57 this. making art is frustrating, but there is nothing more satisfying than seeing the finished product and feeling immense pride at how it turned out, and how people will react/interpret your work
1000%. I get the greatest dopamine hits when I have to do a ton of frustrating trial and error before finally getting something right. It's trained me to seek out challenges and it has caused me to improve and diversify my skills exponentially. Tech bros are vindictive towards artists because they see us as having some unfair privilege that they weren't lucky enough to be born with, but it's all work ethic.
As an artist, seeing how passionate you are about defending art is really inspiring to me. Unironically one of the best rants I've heard in a while.

I think the real nail in the coffin for AI is that it looks cheap. Not the art itself, but the fact that a business using AI generated 'art' sends the message to customers and investors that it doesn't have the capital to pay a human being to create for them.

This part of it all scares me because it makes me wonder if AI itself isn't really the threat, it's that people are actually dumb enough to be fooled by it in its current, very primitive state...
How much of a Karen do you have to be to just ask for some random pastry that’s not on the menu and be mad when it doesn’t work out?
@@jeezduts You _wonder_ that? That's always been The Threat. To Everything. AI is just making it more obvious.

One thing that really pissed me off about AI, Pokemon held this art competition with 3 image submission limit, and the results ended with 6 ai images taking up winning spots all by the same guy just with slightly different enough names.
6 real, different artists could've had one spot each, but ALL SIX of those winning AI photos were all taken buy one guy and his little robot thief with grimmy little hands
Edit: Apparently the images were disqualified! Thank god! And thank you to the people who let me know! But I'm still pissed he was able to win before pokemon disqualified the images
Second edit: Please, politely, shut up. I don't care how convinced you ai bros are, ai "art" is stealing, it's easy as balls, and shouldn't belong in a fucking art contest.
You have your fucking ai image contests, you don't need to get your grimey fucking hands on the actual talent it takes to make art.
"It is not enough that I succeed. Others must fail."
ohhhhh this makes steam hiss out of my ears
He made six? He just wants to see the world burn at that point.
there was also an ai art competition and the winning image was an actual photograph taken by an actual man with an actual camera. he said he hopes the audience wont be upset about being deceived, considering thats exactly what ai does.
edit: *A winning image, i looked at the article it was 3rd place and got the peoples choice award. the photographer, Miles Astray was then disqualified
It is about the outcomes.
Fascinating how Adobe is trying to charge $80 for the rights to an image that can't be protected by copyright, according to US case law!

You can sell something that's not protected by copyright, it's just that someone else can also take that thing and sell it too. Or give it away for free with zero repercussion.

idk why ai was made and immediately used to do artistic things. Robots are supposed to make life easier, not take away the few joys we have access to. Make ai clean the trash out of the ocean or something idk
The AI was made to do these things first because they are the easiest thing to do. Robots have been making people's life easier for decades now. You don't have to do laundry, dishes, lawn mowing, mopping or vaccuuming anymore unless you are petty enough to count the one minute it takes to load and unload things from the machines or to empty the roomba...
The tech bros went for the thing that's easiest to make money from instead of things that adds actual value to society
AI was "immediately" made to do artistic things... AFTER it was first used to do the following:
- Voice recognition to help those who can't type
- Audio Transcription to help those who can't hear or can't easily understand voices
- Diarization to improve the above
- Translation to help people communicate across the world
- Image classification
- Facial recognition
- Content moderation to vastly (but imperfectly) reduce the amount of spam, adult, and absolutely vile content that you see
- Optical Character Recognition to allow us to convert huge amounts of our history into digital form where it can be preserved
- Voice synthesis to help those who can't see
- Detect fraudulent transactions to prevent people who steal your card information from impersonating you as successfully
- Analyze and classify tumors, neurological disorders and bone fractures
A lot of art is done digitally so I would imagine it’s easier to make a computer program to do that than make a whole ass robot to clean the ocean

My father is trying to learn to cook better, and has been asking AI for recipes. They’re often terrible, over or undercooked, and he refuses to try other recipes. The most frustrating part of this is that I am a professional chef in a fine dining restaurant. I can create recipes for him. I’ve asked him if he needs recipes, and he’s said he has them, and then they’re made by AI. He’s not a bad cook, he follows all the instructions, but the instructions are flawed, and he doesn’t understand that.
Wow that's dark. Sounds like the root issue (except for the AI itself) is that your dad, for whatever reason, rejects human content. Seriously, it's not a normal reaction to refuse recipes that work in favor of AI recipes that don't work...
maybe your father just doesnt like you?
Your father is too proud to accept help from his son/daughter, my dad is the same and I hate him for that

Right!!! And the “well google says this dadada” like even GOOGLE PRE-AI wasnt the best source of information if you dont know how to research your sources.
I mean I don’t think that’s necessarily the same group of people. Imo, people who are engaging with AI are mostly duped people ignorant that it’s AI (and therefore not a demographic who ever internalized “don’t believe the internet”) or greedy opportunists looking to dupe people. In which case their philosophy is “go ahead and believe everything you see on the internet so I can exploit your dumb ass.”
The other group of people, who say it’s the greatest most beautiful future for all mankind or whatever, are a negligible minority of basement dwelling contrarians and hopefully will remain that way. But who knows.
That's actually a really interesting point because it's really hard to pin exactly when it happened. I feel like it had to be a generational shift, which is I guess a little comforting, because kids growing up during this stage aren't going to believe a thing anywhere from anyone.
Hopefully.

I went to buy space-themed stickers for my daughter on Amazon, and the first dozen or so listings were just collections of AI-generated art stickers.
I knew this would be a problem. On her last day of school, she came home with AI-generated art stickers from her school.
They are hideous. One is a parrot without an eye and it has a separate tiny bird for a cheek.
It upsets me sooooooo bad. Especially as an artist who wanted to really put myself out there... And now everything is gunked up. The internet has cancer. The internet is sick with an aggressive cancer.
That really struck me, calling AI cancer for the internet. You're right. That's one of the most well put things I've ever heard. It's excessive, it's bloat, it disguises itself as real, healthy art and it suffocates all things real and genuine until the internet dies. That just makes so much sense to me.
The irony is that the cancer is humanity.
AI hasn't become sentient. It's not doing this itself. It's humans that are using AI to do this. WE are the problem.
It's sad that her school didn't want to put any effort into finding quality stickers made by an actual artist.
This is so real. I went back to school shopping and they had were a bunch notebooks with horrifying AI generated covers ☹
@@mafukun I’ve seen adverts with AI images too. They’re filthier than even non-ai digital images.
There is an AI commercial where a kid comes up with a story and the parents use AI to make art for it. It pisses me off every time. The kid is like, 6, let the kid draw it themselves because 1. That's much more special than generated trash, and 2. By encouraging your child to draw their own art they could build up that skill and perhaps find their talent or future profession. If the kid is coming up with the story, let that creativity thrive and don't teach them to rely on a computer to finish the details for them.
i also think that’s taking away something that could be an important part of their development, where it could stifle the child’s creativity and imagination by not allowing them to express themselves or come up with their own ideas
Drawing does beautiful things to your fine motor skills and spatial awareness. Training AI is going to cause people to stop training people
No matter how good the AI with Adobe Subscription Price is, it will always try to impersonate the Japanese Sakura Tree and the Asian artist who'd drawn on SAI and Clip Studio Paint since 5 years old.
AI is about hustle, not art. Drawing is art.
When everyone hustles, no one will be.
"AI is great because the less artistically talented people can still create great images!"
"So we should incentivise people learning to create real art so that the AI isn't needed?"
"No, that's stupid."
as someone who recently got into drawing, I can say that doing something and knowing you made it entirely with your own hands is a high that can't be replicated. Also, I have full control and can make the finished drawing look exactly how I want it to (besides skill issues) without writing an essay
I follow a lot of artists on Twitter and they've started putting an x over their art just so Twitter doesn't steal it to train their ai. I'm so tired of these big companies taking advantage of people like that.
AI is KILLING me when I’m looking for art references. I wanted to see a body type that might be considered “ugly” so I could draw a monster lady. I searched troll woman, orc woman, ogre woman, dwarf woman and ALL of the results are pretty, slim, anime styled AI girls. Like WTF??? The “prettying” of art is driving me up the wall
I'm so happy that every search engine is permanently crippled if you don't add a "before:2022" tag to your search :)
AI truly is a gift to mankind
YES ONG the other day i tried to draw my oc in fantasy armor and all i found for reference are those 'perfect' anime girls with massive badonkadonks and pixar-like artstyle of 3d animation
Hey thanks for the before 2022 thing. I’ll have to use that.
Does the before thing work on Pinterest? I’m just asking for the artists who are better than me I don’t really draw realistic proportions ever
Now AI can do almost everything. Not only generating images and "art" with almost 99% accuracy, it can generating almost photorealistic videos and even generating various music audios! And all it takes is only 3 years. This is very scary and concerning for the real artists out there
I saw a Twitter post saying something along the lines of “AI art convinced me of the existence of the human soul because I’ve seen what art looks like without it” and…yeah, that about sums it up.
Which is why we need to advance AI further
@@qweee3913nah, we good bot
@@qweee3913more soulless art! MORE I SAY!
@@qweee3913who's we?
Until you find out a bot wrote that tweet.
I didn't believe in human soul until I saw "art" created by AI. I thought corporate music, stock photos and footage and direct to video films were soulless, but all of those things have so much more soul than anything AI has ever created.
i'd take disneys direct to dvd sequels over ai baloney any day
There is something interesting about how deliberately bland and soulless corporate music is. There is nothing interesting about ai music.
@ville__is that you Skynet?
@ville__no. *you’re* a poo
@@exnsaoSome of those direct to dvd sequels are even, dare I say it, tolerable.
The amount of times my mum and my brother have tried showing me one of those "This is how easily I make $15K per week by doing this thing" videos, it's genuinely so frustrating to have to counter ridiculous arguments that I'm not even trying to engage with bc they don't understand I have a soul and a conscience lmfao
in 1997 or around there, the goverment of Canada made a commercial about a house hippo. The Hippo looked real and the commercial could fool you into thinking house hippos were real.
and then it said: Don't believe everything you see on television. Never seen a commercial age so well for the internet
I dunno about you but my house hippos are very real
I think that was in one of Kurtis Connor’s vids.
I seen it in the early 2000’s when I was a kid!
theres a new version of it for the digial age but the house hippo was great as a kid
I love the house hippo commercial, such a classic
It’s weird that we’ve heard of people going to jail for forging paintings and selling them (something that is still a lot of work despite the intrinsic thievery of it), yet it’s legal to completely steal the entire history of hundreds of thousands of artists and produce derivative work with zero effort at all.
It's legal because corporations are doing it
Yeah forgery is only illegal if you try to sell it as authentic. It is also actually more difficult than the original was in most cases. The AI thing is a big problem.
it's cuz the monetary value of art is in the provenance, not the beauty.
to me it's kinda similar to how human deaths don't often spark wars, but destruction of or theft of property often does.
Technicaly it's not legal. the companies are simply profiting while they are not punished.
@@micahfoley9572 heard of a little ole war called world war 2???????????
AI does not democratize art, free, open-source software like Blender does. Before Blender was a thing, the only way you could make quality 3D animations and renders was expensive software that costs thousands of dollars, but after Blender basically anyone could do it for free. We need more stuff like Blender and less AI.
Ai is democratize art tho. Is also an open source software for your local pc
they do not want to democratize it. they want to make it cheaper so they do not have to pay to impress normal people.

“How are you going to do something for ten years, when you won’t even do it for one day” - really resonated with me for some reason
It's so frustrating having to dodge so much AI crap every time I'm online. It's getting exhausting but then you can't even get away from it IRL.
ai has become so invasive that when i was doing a fuckin school project that needed me to use stock photos of people i had to spend like an extra *15 minutes* trying to find something that wasn't AI. like it didn't make it easier, it didn't help me out, it just made everything harder because every image available on google looked like absolute shit.
i visited a game shop and almost as soon as i walked in i noticed it was FILLED TO THE BRIM with ai images of pokémon characters on the walls, and they were selling tumblers with ai images on them aswell. it made me feel so uneasy. and then a while later i saw an ai generated logo on the side of a car
I literally saw an ai ad on the bus stop last month. It was Einstein, like you can't just use a normal photo?? it was an ad for ai tutoring, too, which makes it way worse...
At this point we gotta resort to going to the local library if we wanna get accurate information.
I mean, my library is pretty fun. I like going there anyway. Lets gooo.
Like right now they are collaboration with a big museum and they have a REAL dinosaur skelleton on display. For free. In my library. Libraries are cool😌👌
Me as a library tech student who has spent entire courses discussing info literacy: i feel validated
@@bluehydrangea5506 Same!
Ah yes let’s bring back the entire thing the internet was trying to replace and go back to the 90s where you had to sift through massive encyclopedias to find any useful information.
@@therealspeedwagon1451 I mean, if the information you're finding online is not useful or accurate, maybe. But many libraries make lists of vetted electronic resources available for all kinds of things.
My Facebook was getting flooded with those "why do pictures like this never trend" posts and I reported a bunch of them for being fake pages. After a couple of days every report came back saying it was legit and wouldnt be removed
It will be difficult to get Facebook to remove AI generated content when their metrics for success are grounded in tracking interactions on that very content, and unfortunately, AI content is driving the most interactions.
“It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends upon his not understanding it!”
-Upton Sinclair, 1934
who do you think are running those acc? why does meta spend so much money on AI?
Literally nothing on Facebook ever gets removed. I sometimes report comments with extremely barely censored racial slurs and they always report back saying they won't remove the comments.
@@uamdbro a bot was leaving comments on hundreds of facebook posts saying things like "support pedophilia, kids are old enough to understand consent" I reported their account and a lot of the posts on it and got a message back saying I need to stop reporting and commenting on them or I'LL get in trouble for "harassment". the account has been up for over a year, still posting shit like that

As a musician myself, it really hit me hard when you showed that Spotify is likely publishing AI songs and putting them in recommended Playlists. This is genuinely devastating.
I can agree with this as an artist. While I do traditional art, I see a lot of other artists getting their art stolen and turned into ai art that looks ten times worse and just goofy. It’s really sad. You can’t feel the emotion behind the art and it’s just…cold
Not “likely”
Definitely and massively
And profiting massively
i use soundcloud instead of spotify, and i've still seen AI generated content, but it's never popular, usually like 3 likes. really sad. but it isn't pushed at all. soundcloud also creates playlists for things like black history month and pride. also, it has helped me find some very small artists that make awesome music. i have extremely specific tastes, so i don't normally find new artists unless i actively seek them out, but soundcloud totally fixed that for me.

"You guys remember when they told us AI was going to do all the menial labor and let us have the arts to do with all our free time? Now the machines are making all the art and the essential workers are still working themselves to death in three jobs..."
I think about that sentiment a lot when this stuff comes up.
Literally
actually it's the robots that's gonna do the menial labor
Someone posted this quote already but
