- In this video I wanted to speak to artists like me who are CURRENTLY dealing with the very real and sometimes deadly mental health impacts that this whole situation is bringing up. Take care and keep drawing.
There are many concerns and opinions on AI Art and many videos being made about said subject that are much more eloquent at laying out the legal, and ethical concerns then I am.
Here are a couple videos that go into those specifics:

You don't give up either, I love your art!
as i wrote under another comment... i think fighting is the right way. the same way algorhytms can detect copyrighted music... they can be trained to detect ai made art. that way it will be clear in the future what is made by humans and what not. you artists just have to get there. and you will, after more and more people will lose their jobs (animators, game designers, music, movie industry, writers, programmers, everything digital... and so on).
every tech can be reversed, found, and rewritten. and the ai's that are already out there will be usefull only as refference pictures creating mashines, after an algorhytm is created that will detect ai art. there just has to be an interest in it. political interest for example. hopefully the people who are claiming to be anti rasist will realize soon that these ai's are often creating apes or weird creatures with dark skinned people. then these people could help the fight as well and so on. at some point i think that people will realize that it's not just about artists. it's about them as well. big tech will swallow everyone if there is no resistance. so don't give up yourself okay?
also you should watch this. something seems to happen behind the curtains ruclips.net/video/Nn_w3MnCyDY/видео.html
@@mrwri and what about future artists? that are not even born yet? they need rich parents until they are 30 and have the skill because starting jobs are taken by ai? no need to worry for them as well?
@@mrwri and they didn't have an ai to compete with while they were starting their career. that's my point.
@@mrwri i refer you to what i said as well. no one starts as a pro artist. it takes time to become one. you need to eat during this time so you need money. if all starting jobs like freelancing or commissions are taken by ai... how are future young artists supposed to become pros without having financial help from their parents. do you get it now what i meant?
This goes way beyond just Artists. Drivers, retail workers, cooks, software programmers, writers, legal aids, customer service reps, It seems every where you look technology is marching towards making another profession obsolete. Society is going to have to re-think how everything is going to work out.
exactly
That is probably going to be the future at some point. Though I think AI taking over X will depend. Such as AI truck drivers, that will probably take longer to actually come and my guess is you are probably going to always have a human driver to supervise the AI, the day when the AI trucker can do everything will take most likely a great deal of time to come. Now in terms of Art, if we are looking at Art purely through the lens of "who is hiring the artist(s) ?", assuming AI art is legal (still not sure how copyright issues will work) then yeah AI part will definitely be a part of the future going forward. I.e... the genie is already out of the bottle, that genie is not going back in.
What I think is going to happen is the smaller creators will probably use AI art more generously simply because I want to save money and the AI art is "good enough". The big companies I think may slowly become a mix of AI art and
"regular"/people artist. I.e.. the big companies may use AI art where it is cheaper, does need to be as specialized or people won't really notice that X company is using AI art for Y.
@Jason Stephenson thank you, you just said the most beautiful words in that first sentence... every factor that leads to conflict within people, the two parties and how they hate each other. AI and professions. Its all to tear us apart as people so that the human connection is devalued. We are devided and thats the true problem
This is Bible prophecy 101 happening! One world system, one world control where the need of human beings will be less because the AI replacements are there in the making, to humiliate the Most High God the creator of us all. This time to reconcile with God and His only son...the only door to the Father YHWY Elohim. Soon another fulfillment is the production of designer babies/ super beings...perhaps will create super artists, musicians, doctors, engineers. just as Rev 13:8 had given there will be people who are in the face of the earth on those days whose name aren't written in the Book of Life because they will be designed and birthed in another process this world had created.
@@littlesparrow34 what should we do then? I want to turn back to god, but I still have my fears of the future
I'll never stop drawing, and this won't stop me. But I'm terrified that my dream, the one job that I've told my friends, family, and everyone around me will be impossible to get, because there's a cheap, easily accessible, and near instant alternative to people like me. I want to animate, I want to be a part of the process that has created all my favorite shows and movies. I doubt that I'll even get a chance to APPLY for a job like that now that ai can do it faster and better then I could. They make fucking masterpieces while I'm still learning to draw fingers. Especially with how studios already mistreat their staff, I don't have a single doubt that they're willing to just drop us in favor for the "make art button." I doubt that I'll be able to live that dream job anymore. Again, I'll never stop drawing, it's my truest passion in life. But it's still so fucking scary
I’m honestly thinking about learning to sculpt :)
Just to have backups
or making more traditional pieces
Maybe you can discover other stuff that you like just to have a plan B
@Death light I do have a back up, I've always wanted to get into voice acting. It's just upsetting that I can't get my dream job as an animator
@@deathlight4210 I thought that too but AI creates 3d models too so I kinda lost all hope...
Please don’t stop. Do what you love. AI art has just lowered the bar to something cheap, disposable and stolen. I think there will end up being parallel art forms - AI art (the junk food) and human art.
We are still a long ways away from AI being able to animate a cohesive piece on it's own. Even if it could it would never be able to create the unique stories in your brain. AI will become a tool for human artists as time goes on, it will never be a replacement.
Sometimes, in our darkest hour...all we need to hear is "Dont give up". thank you for this video.
I'm more annoyed with the gleeful attitude that these AI tech-bros have towards actively removing humans from the humanities such as art. I've seen them gloat at the aspect of taking our jobs/commissions and replacing us with AI.
It's honestly heartbreaking to see.
Imagine crying because Ai Art is doing better then You.
Yeah that's just unrealistic, I'm sure time will tell what will actually happen.
@@Death-777 really? Unrealistic? It sure makes digital art obsolete for digital artists, what do you mean??
@@cutesyprincess14 No. That is not what is happening. These programs are not doing art better. They are doing it cheaper and faster.
@@warsin8641 „cry more AI is here to stay forever from now on”
Your techno defeatism is pathetic.
It’s a very terrifying thing for me as someone who just graduated from art college hopeful to start building myself up, only to enter this terrifying reality of what seems like an ever more AI infested world. I want to remain hopeful, but sometimes it just feels like every few days there is some ground lost, with very little action that might give newfound reassurance. Seeing so many people say “this is how it is, deal with it” or “It can help if you use it, adapt or die.”, feels like each another nail in the mental coffin.
I find myself afraid to post my work. Afraid to start commissions for fear of them being plugged right into an AI model. It’s hard to suddenly feel so lost without any idea of how to proceed next.
I’m right there with you. I’m a software engineer, and the latest developments in AI have been downright scary. They say the good will outweigh the bad, but I seriously doubt that. For what it’s worth, an AI may make an image in a few seconds, that looks similar to what a human might create, but the reason I like art is because of the human process behind it. I can see myself in what an artist makes, and as a fellow human being, I can empathize with the artist. That will never be replaced. Maybe for cheap 13 in a dozen game assets, or corporate images people will opt for an AI generated image, but when it comes to what I hang on my wall I will always opt for the work of someone who, like me, suffers the human condition.
The actualy funny thing to think about of the AI's break into the commission field is.. that most of the people selling this stuff will be scammers, while most of the people buying it are going to be the cheapest customers. These two together will (and I assume already do) result in people trying to rip off artists with a few dollars, only to get awful results from scammers who are trying to undercut each other until they literally work for $1-2 only to flood the cheap customers with the most awful, all-time-low-quality art possible... meanwhile decent customers who care about artists will be even more motivated to pay both money and respect to those imperfect people who create unique works.
This gives me hope actually, thank you 💕
Exactly. The AI revolution is only going to destroy those with no actual skills/passions. Those who actually have talent will become even more unique. And that’s the point. They (our controllers) want to make it hard for people to obtain financial freedom. So the usual methods of getting that (having talents, hard to reproduce skills, working a high paying job) are being removed or access to them being difficult. Essentially we must adapt. Everyone needs to be learning basic programming so they can stay informed and competitive.
i literally want to shake your hand rn for this comment
Ai 8s only getting better everyday tho. That'll basically be the good quality art. I gave up officially today. I still get optimism spikes like recently but i leaning on giving up.
It's good to hear this. You have a point here. As the reason people buy this AI art because It is cheap. More than that. People will not buy it. And also. Anyone csn do prompts so... There's no value on AI at all.. if everyone can do it as well! And can make Artist worth more appreciated!
This is devastating, I feel for the artist community, I am a music producer and I fear it will come for us next. I still think and hope at the end of the day, real art will still have value.
Same here .. music is my passion and I fear AI will ruin that for me.
@@MR_JXB omg we in the boat I been writing recording music for a min now I hope this is gonna come to an end Asap
What do you mean "come for us next". They came for us at the same time.
@@arbitool there is no good AI music yet
@@prcption8636 There are "apparently" or "on the surface" good AI works in both fields with 0 essence I believe, but yes, more abundant in the visual art.
I'm not an artist, but I really feel for you and your community. I am worried about the sudden advances in AI. Writers are feeling the same way about OpenAI's Chat GPT. I kind of feel like I'm in an episode of the Twilight Zone. Hang in there, we'll see what happens. Love your art! Especially the first one you sketched and painted in this episode.
What do you think the end quote could be for a twilight zone episode on AI
Thank you.
Since 2015 I've been trying to put my money where my mouth is by paying artists and musicians whose work I enjoy using the patronage model. I am not rich. Hell, some months it's tough getting by, but I made a commitment that while I can't give monetary recompense to EVERY artist whom I enjoy, that's no excuse for not at least picking a few and sticking to it.
I try to take every chance I can to encourage others to do the same. To every non-artist out there: please do the same.
To every artist out there: thank you for what you do. You help to create meaning, beauty and purpose in this life. You are stewards of the best light of humanity in this cold universe. Thank you so much.
You have been an incredible supporter over the years! I'm honestly so honored to have had your support! It really means a lot! Even a bit of support means a ton to each individual artist!
@@ChrissaBug we globally need a way to send micro transactions without fees.. many people would easily give 1 euro or something and that would be way more then an ADSense click. i kinda refuse to make paypal and patron rich and give them all my info. it should be as ez as sending email to give someone a few dollar/euro.
@Eff Dee Thank you for that. I recently got back into art, and started posting for the first time online, and it’s been so tough seeing all this AI art around. If there’s no meaning behind it, then is it even art? It feels like a cheat. Like I have to suck for years to get okay, then some AI can pop out a professional level artwork in minutes. It’s just hard, you know?
Holy crap, this made me tear up. Thank you :)
@@boohoo5419 the donation site ko-fi offers users to make donations without a service charge
It become very hard for me to draw or post drawings on social for the past three months. I lost my creative partnership to AI and was told that I was too slow, too lazy and not talented enough. I felt hopeless. I'm a struggling to earn enough for living while pursuing art. It is sad but I decided to only draw for myself. I enjoy drawing but being compared to AI is not fun.
Draw art themed against AI, get the word out.
It's the artist's role to defend art.
My honest reaction 🤯
Same here. I don't even post anymore. I still make art. I've been making some of the best art I've ever had. But like you said. I don't want to be compared.
this is so unfortunate, I really didn't want to believe all this nightmare when I first saw that horrible DallE art that made horrible amalgamations of photos, but back then, deep in me, I knew this will happen, and I just kept telling myself that I was just being negative. Time passed and I realized that my fears were so very real, and as much as I hate to admit it I think I am going to be replaced by AI art, and I feel it's just going to happen sooner than I expected. And now I don't know what to do or feel, It's frustration, sadness, anger, and uncertainty like I've devoted so much to art, and working as an artist, I've sacrificed many things to get to where I am, and it all just crumbled so quickly. What am I even going to do now? should I go back to being in a call center, am I too old to start learning something new? what if I devote another decade to something, and after I finally made it that also gets replaced by AI. I guess I just don't know. Too many emotions happening at once, this is just a twisted black mirror episode... just not fun
I see you are under the assumption that you know how AI works. However, you comparing it to a human brain in that way, makes me think you actually just know as much as I do. AI doesn't learn or "THINK" the way humans do, so don't try to compare it, making us think that it actually learns to do art, or creates art just like a human does.. that is just an insult, it didn't learn it, it was trained on stolen art, ... and NO it doesn't create art the way I do, and it will never... I don't like stealing people's hard work, and I'm no machine(as I said, very different from humans)... And Of course, it is gonna be more efficient, and better, I mean it was trained on stunning artwork from millions of artists out there, kind of hard to compete with that.
@Hogan Dromgool that's not the point, the point is that its taking his job, OUR jobs, tell me how we are supposed to compete with near instant art? We all have a process, but no working process is fast enough to convince major studios and customers to choose us over instant results.
@@hogandromgool2062 AI art just steals from real artists
But you wouldn’t understand since you’re benefiting from it
@@mistahg4496 He’s benefiting from it so he probably doesn’t care
@@deathlight4210 possibly
So, here's my two cents with AI Art (having dabbled in it for a little bit).
- You can never get exactly what you want with AI Art, you always have to settle for what it generates.
- With actual artists, you are always in charge of the final product. You get exactly what you want.
So all my humans out there, hold your heads up! Yall got my support!
The AI advances by the day. In a few years, you will get exactly what you want.
This reminds me of people who hated digital tools when they came out. I recommend using the exact solution the community used back then. Treat these as tools and find ways to combine them with your craft.
@@lowfatlatte0 Yeah, I agree. Try to use the AI to enhance and add to what you have and create yourself. I've been using my Dad's artwork to generate new art with AI - at his request. I'm actually somewhat surprised that a 70 year old is so open to it, but he is.
Thats true to some extent but ai art will get better. I tried it for 2-10 Hourse and with the right wording you get mostly what you want.
It will take time for sure but it will get better and better over time in 5-10 years ther will be programms That can make you 90-95% what you want. For the most part even when i work with a artist i only get that what the artist makes and thats most off the time what the artist thinks i wanted and not wat i wanted my self. So i only get 100% off what i want when i am the artist my self ore i pay 100 of dollars for rework.
@@Schinken_ That's a good, but sort of sad point. There's only so much that can be edited once a work is done. So I guess for an authentic work, it would be good to have feedback and discussion throughout the entire creation process. Then hopefully the end result is pretty much exactly what you want.
I draw and paint digitally a lot, and have been working towards finding work in graphic design.
I recently got clued in to the whole AI art thing by someone I knew, and from that person and others I've found that have pushed the idea on me what most annoys me is the disrespectful "Artists are obsolete, prepare to become useless" attitude I've run into. I have issues I work through, and the worry regarding how the art markets and industry will be affected certainly isn't helped by that sort of attitude.
Thankfully doing art helps me a lot day to day.
I want to speak to possible worries for young artists. I came of age at the beginning of the development of digital art. Photoshop 1.0. No pen tablets, everything via mouse. Yet fears digital art would destroy traditional art ran rampant. Computers would take over the art world. I was told by art teachers I trusted to not go into a career in art. It would become a dead end path due to computers.
I have watched with tinges of regret as the fears of apocalypse proved unfounded. As the art community and the industries dependent on art adapted and actually expanded because of the new technology. None us know how the introduction of AI-generated art is going to play out. If you have a passion for art follow that passion. Don't let fears in the now of the future dissuade you.
I don't think it is the same situation, digital art is very similar in process to traditional art but these programs are stealing other work and spamming websites everywhere not to mention the horrible attitude of ai users most of them have no respect.
This, I feel like most of this is hysteria and paranoia over new things and too much internet.
I already see people making "fake AI art", ie. art that parodies/emulates the common errors of AI made stuff. AI art accounts have popped up and yet their stuff looks as obvious, ugly and amateurish as the accounts of kids who make "art" from playing with positioning 3D models. And legal stuff is going to be difficult for a while but will work itself out eventually, certainly by the time you go from student to career artist. People who are losing sleep should close their laptop, get to work and calm dovn.
@@denahelmi6469 same argument happened with vinyl vs CD, than CD vs mp3... real instruments vs synthesizers, synths vs VST's and so on and on... hand coding in html vs dreamweaver, dreamweaver vs php, php vs javascript, yadi yada over and over again. All the old masters were copying artists before them, everybody was stealing from everybody. Picasso was "inspired" by African masks, Chagall's style was not even his... differentiate an early Monet from an early Renoir (good luck with that one) or Braque from Pablo. Campedonc vs Kádár Béla... and so on and on and on aaaaand ooooon. And yet here we are. Btw can you point out anything in that blue elf girl that has not been done yet?
I agree with you except that in the field of education, all resources have been directed toward technology except in elite art schools. So, no one gets to be a sculptor anymore, unless you go to RISD or equivalent school. Is the future we want one of only elite artists? You get AI education and nothing else? Or where everyone who wants to make art has to be self-taught like I am, because I couldn't afford art school? My problem with AI is it is a tool to create record-breaking inequality. Another form of creating social isolation like social media. With no accountability.
@@courtneybrown6204 They mess up schools (art and no art equally) on purpose everywhere. -for quite a long time now. The best way to actually learn something is self taught with apprenticeship. Who taught Michelangelo or Seurat to be themselves? AI at the moment creates more equality. It is free and accessible to most. One can use it to make money and support ones "real" art carrier. Same AI basics are present in most of the creative softwares used by the whiny people for decades! Are we gonna get F'd at the end? YES. -no question about it... it's what we're going to do in the meantime.
Worked my whole life as an artist, hence the name. Sleepless nights on cgi projects from college days right through to professional career. I never had to worry about how to make money. I was always seen as the successful one that could be called on to realise dreams and the visions of my peers, my friends, family. I felt proud that I earned it.
I'm sorry to all artists, but this is the big one, not just for us but for humanity. This isn't just a tool, this is Intelligence itself, Skill itself. Unfortunately, as the human race, we love Competition. We are desperate beings, clawing at each other, and subjugation is a subconscious infection in our minds. If it wasn't for the lusts of the 'Haves' and 'Have nots' , Ai would be an incredible moment to witness, because it would be akin to watching an alien race. But no, we need profits first, even though shareholders make plenty for a very comfortable lifestyle, yet the lust for more seems like it can't be controlled.
Our way of distributing the commodities of life itself needs to change, our way of life needs to change. This will be painful, but Ai will give us the opportunity as a species for introspection. Hopefully we will realise fighting each other for survival and comfort is illogical, and this so called Meaning to life is ill placed and is a ancient and outdated as our primate ancestors of animal mindset.
Can't wait to sell all my equipment, burn and delete all my artworks and head to the construction area to work!. Then I will cry and drink away my depression to forget about my dream being shattered by AI art programs made with 'OUR' artworks to destroy 'US', without our 'CONSENT', which is pretty ironic. Then I will die in agony after realizing I've lost the sole thing that has kept me feeling alive this whole time! Cheers!
@@dami3661 Yup! If it wasnt for my fascination with Ai, id feel the same, and at times I do. But if for a moment you can step back from yourself and remember, you cant take your achievements with you after death anyway, youll realise something. That is, that this world is bigger than you, and it was always be about contributing to the bigger thing. It does take an immense amount of surrender, but its the key to keeping calm. Ai is something so big, so groundbreaking, its going to be akin to all of humanity giving birth to a Superman. Yet it wouldve only have been possible by the efforts of billions. This is how powerful this entity is going to be. Can you find pride in that? When an immortal entity 1000 years from now looks back at the efforts of the collective? The only thing I think worth doing now is making sure Ai is democratised and not enslaved to the rich.
@@dami3661 Im already there... and i sense, that, it will not take long, to get to the drinking part...
I hate that so many artist are going through such a difficult time right now but as an artist myself, it’s helps me knowing I’m not alone in being scared and sad about this.
I had seen a post the other day where someone generated some ai art in the style of Hayao Miyazaki. Everyone was commenting that they hope he got the chance to see the piece. Miyazaki has stated years ago that AI and art do not belong together. He even went as far to say he feared we were nearing the end of times.
It’s wild to me that people can say they think highly of an artist, copy their art and wish for them to see it, while also disrespecting them in one of the most offensive ways.
@@dankburgers you clearly have no clue what intellectual property is, so shut up.
I am sorry for you. Despite that i am 62 today , I have equal but not so strong feelings.
Many of my " dreams and wishes" are gone over the past years.
Of course i am just a hobbyist and so many (like you) are much better.
So let me conclude it so: NEVER GIVE UP
What your work means to you is more worth than money.
I wish you a Happy New Year and much power for what's comming. Regards F.
Yes it's more worth than money and that's what "AI artists" will never understand. But look something, while it does give me tremendous joy to sketch, draw and create, I was also making money from it. First of all it took so much effort to come into that stage where my hobby became my job and I was actually able to make some modest but livable amount of money. I will now have to look for another job. I don't know what that job will be but if I am going to work for 8 hours a day I doubt that I will have much- if all- time to enjoy my hobby...
Would you tell manual laborers and factory workers to not give up? AI art is coming and artists will be obsolete as a paid profession. Even top level animators will be at risk of unemployment.
@@bub6871 sadly that's true...But you know what, that is not even the biggest problem here in the long run. This technology is gonna end ART and evolution of human creativity that is lasting more than 45.000 now...
I'm motivated by spite honestly. I refuse to let some soulless algorithm outdo me as a flesh and blood being with a mind and soul. I believe human artists will always be superior because of that, and I'm not willing to give up. AI will never be the next Beksinski or Goya, but people like us can be.
that's the right way to look at it. git gud as ai will only be better from now.
@@reuterss306 -🤓
Sadly real life is not a curated story from our consumerist world, if your argument is the value of humanity well... AI IS the accumulated value of humanity, it's not like the invention of the camera, AI is literally stealing the intellectual property of the individual and turning it into a singularity of knowledge, to think we can beat the infinite potential of AI with the potential of a single person is foolish, straight out of every superhero movie, every epic story of hero vs countless villains. It's quite funny how technology indoctrinated us into thinking were special only to show us "it" is more special. I'm not attacking you, I'm a fool myself, pursuing art every day sleep depriving myself and getting carpal tunnel while barely making any progress. Also I'm glad to see someone else getting motivated by spite! It helped me push through many years but anyway... I will forever be a fool, because if I'm not, I'm nothing.
Youll never win against ai lol.
I’d recommend changing your motivation. Machines can already outdo people in so many fields, but who cares, it’s the personal touch that matters. I know an AI can beat me at chess, but it’s still worth playing. A robot could beat me in a marathon a hundred times over, but it’s still worth doing.
art is literally the human epitome of emotional and logical expression.
Yes, it's the definer of the human race. Everything that makes any culture is an artifact, the product of human handicraft at the time. AI just exploits that and AI ideologists follow the fascist/transhuman new-man myth, that the collective future of humanity is an organicist one, that we are to be a part of a hivemind of technological prowess and that emotionality is inferior. Italian futurism spawned italian fascism. Nazism wanted mechanisation. So why is what we thought against suddenly ok?
@@kibi8999
you speak of "nazism" but ironically the creators of AI are Jewish scientists
is it though? seems like AI will be better at it. how can that be?
AI is the human epitome of emotional and logical expression
Conpletely and utterly false. It is just a form of cognitive automation.
I feel like I'm living a sci-fi horror. Never thought one day I will be threatened by AI, but here we are.
It’s truly unfair. I wish one day I wake up realizing this has been nothing but a horrible nightmare.
Damn artists are dramatic😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
We have to start a war with technocracy. I'm up for this
Luddites
I saw that coming but hoped it will be further away in the future, when I'm either dead or too old too care.
Ai art really hasn’t fazed me much yet but it is heartbreaking to see newer artists talk about giving up their art journey cuz of it. To think about ppl giving up on something I love so deeply really does bring tears to my eyes cuz I couldn’t imagine my life without art
I completely agree. I’m not gonna give up on my art. Yes Ai art can be fun for some, but I just can’t get with it. I’ve been drawing for years and it’s always been therapeutic for me. I don’t know…I feel like the people that are running this know what they’re doing.
they were never meant to be an artist does an aspiring pro fighter look at the current pros and say its too hard and give up before they started? you keep at it and keep trying
@jazzy j they've GOTTA know, they can't just not know what's happening here. There are millions of artists in the world, speaking out about this. Either they're really dumb, or really evil
Its all been by design, they want the human obsolete and programmed like cyborg , its a war between good and evil perfect timming with the last two years
@@hogandromgool2062 yeah, AI art is more useful for people who lack skill
I have just recently learned what AI generated art is, I had admired the art I have seen from several AI artists have made but honestly now that I know how it was generated I am bothered by it. I have worked as a commercial artist, commissioned artist and drafter. I’m in my 50’s and totally old school in my approach. I have recently used photoshop to clean up backgrounds for the purpose of making clean prints of my work- but that’s my only use of a computer to make art. For me- it’s soul crushing to not work in the way that I love to work. There is no doubt pressure to digitize every aspect of our lives…. Even our precious artwork! You are called to be YOU- and it’s only you who can create the work YOU were created to make! Back to the basics- yes, 100%!!!!
That’s how I see it too. I used to work traditionally but I love the freedom I get with digital, my stylus and computer are tools still though and an extension of my creativity. This ai stuff however is a complete and utter replacement of everything that drives us and makes us human. It make me so angry.
@@mrs.quills7061 I would love to try procreate- I does look like fun & no mess to clean up after! I will admit- old school is messy!
@@hannahcrumley3103 and expensive! For me it was heartbreaking to work on an oil painting for months and mess it up or lose my mojo to have to wait in between layers to dry, with watercolor I’d overpaint it at times and warp the paper and I was never a fan of acrylic it felt too stiff for my liking! For a while I just did sketches in my sketchbook and never progress them further until I built my own pc and got a drawing tablet, changed my whole process and world because I could experiment without consequences!
You should honestly, procreate is magical the brushes are very intuitive and respond like real brushes in some cases. I found there was a bit of a learning curve for me at first from traditional to digital because you have to plan more and think in layers, think about the tools and what they can do-but there’s so many tutorials on RUclips for shortcuts and ways to speed up the process. You can literally drag a color and drop it into a sketch and procreate knows where to fill it, it’s really cool.
Procreate records your process too so you can see the sketch turn into an illustration! The only thing I don’t like about it though is it can limit your layers or document size depending on the size of your iPad, so I use procreate to sketch and keep like an art diary and I use clip studio paint on my pc to finalize everything, I prefer clip studio for line art because of the pen brush I created for it and it has an adjustment feature that corrects lines when you draw slightly. That’s the other thing too you don’t need to tweak a traditional brush, so it took me a while to find what worked for me.
I consider myself very lucky that I started delving more into traditional mediums over the past few years. I mostly use digital art to plan out concepts for my physical pieces at this point. I still love digital art and the artists who make it, however, and plan on commissioning some digital artists soon!
@@mrs.quills7061 You both seem to be very much in the dark when it comes to the possibilities AI can offer. For starters, you can use AI to ENHANCE your own creativity, by having it generate random composition, which you can then use as reference in your own preferred method of art creation. That's just one example
I’m not an artist…. I’m not an artist yet but I’d like to be in the near future.
Your words reached out to me and thank you for keeping dreams alive.
Ai could never replicate that human touch or those imperfect details that give it a human touch.
I hope that everyone is doing mentally well… and that the future will not be ai dominated
It will, if we prompt a brain and a memory before doing the art, even if it's not for today technological possibilites ; but it will happen the same TNT led place to the nuclear bomb a century after. Fuck scientists who always think "can I do it ?" and not "should I do it ?". They are criminals for me.
I find it quite crushing atm. People seem to hold more value in a.i art too
Long live human created art ✊️✊️✊️
The most unbelievable part is, that there are people who celebrate this. Its like... the majority of people don't understand art. They watch movies not to think, but to get their brains flushed. This is the reason, why Transformers-movies exist. The most people never visited an art gallery. Yes, it is far more worse: We are a hated breed. As artist, you don't create something worthy for the society, so the most people think. They tell you, to learn something better, like making money at the stockmarket or work as an workerbee, to make mommy and daddy proud. And for what? To regret your fucked up life after 60 years in a job you hate, because everyone does it the same way.
And that's why we artists are hated. Because we stand out and show this endtime-cancer-capitalism, that there is another path. Yet, they drop us down. As an photographer, I always heared the quote "You just pushed a button, thats not woth the price" or "My phone has more megapixel than your camera 😂". Now they will say "is it real or just AI?". Now they will create something with a few prompts, instead of hireing me and my collegues. And guess what? They don't care about quality. The only thing, they want is as much output as possible, for no money. The wet dreams of every businessman. And they are coming for drawings, photography, animation and film. Music is also doomed. Thats the future, no matter what they say to hold us down from revolting. We are obsolete now and I don't think, there is a plan for a social care system, to help those, who lose their jobs. At the end, soilent green is human meat. Homo homini lupus.
I am sorry. Was a nice life. In future we will have to figure out, how to survive this new horror-dystopia. You think, AI is too cheesy to create something worthy? Then look at Disney. Marvel-movies everywhere. Remakes. Shitty series. And yet, the majority consumes it anyway. Its not about the quality. It never was. Its about making the shareholders happy and rich. Nobody will know, when the big companys start to let AI write their storys, animate their movies, create their merchandise. At the end, we artist will be the dying breed, not the big companys and CEOs. Or, how porcupine tree stated it in their song "the sound of muzak":
Hear the sound of music
Drifting in the aisles
Elevator Prozac
Stretching on for miles
The music of the future
Will not entertain
It's only meant to repress
And neutralize your brain
Soul gets squeezed out
Edges get blunt
Demographic
Gives what you want
Now the sound of music
Comes in silver pills
Engineered to suit you
Building cheaper thrills
The music of rebellion
Makes you want to rage
But it's made by millionaires
Who are nearly twice your age
One of the wonders of the world is going down
It's going down I know
It's one of the blunders of the world that no-one cares
No-one cares enough
Had a mega meltdown today about how useless it can feel to pursue art as a career. I think this was a good day to watch this video. Thank you for making it, it really made me feel better.
You should look into Industrial Design. It’s a legitimate career with a salary and benefits that is incredibly creative and involves tons of drawing / painting (we call it rendering)/ 3D modeling on a daily basis.
@@dickskinthin9192 I’m concerned AI is capable of doing this too
I feel so pathetic
@@toriel5695 maybe eventually, but not currently it's not. Believe me, I checked! 😁
I think the most challenging part is how quickly it came on. It wasn't gradual, I wouldnt have expected something like this until 2050 or so, but now life is just becoming one big black mirror episode. How many artists have commited suicide because of this? Its a statistic we cant really count but its there. This is only the beginning the tech is in its infancy. Soon movies will be generated without being able to tell the difference. Everyone will be effected by it eventually. Just sad to see the writers and artists hit first.
The change has been gradual though. Photoshop came out around 1990. You’re right though about this being just the beginning of the new renAIssance. There are some creatives currently working on AI generated short films!
Writers and artists were naturally the first to be infused with AI. There isn’t any real world ramifications for spelling a word wrong on a script or adding more fingers to a hand in an art piece. Dig a hole in the wrong place and you could possibly end up with a gas leak.
Because of ai replacing me as an artist, I don't wanna live anymore
Beat them before you ever try to beat yourself, by whatever means.
Same here, man.
Well, 11 months have passed, the world continues to turn for artists and AIs continue to develop, but I don't know if they are gaining ground or we artists are consolidating ourselves in a trench. What I am sure of is that I will not stop expressing myself with drawing because each drawing of mine has a part of my soul and that is my small gift to the world. No AI drawing has that
AI art has killed me and i am angry with people who loves art for a living and made money only to be dumped into the garbage
How are you managing to type from beyond the grave?
This whole AI art mess had got me stressed out to the point I almost quit. But now I've been drawing even more since then. I've been doing this since I was a kid, and I'm not giving up now because of the AI thing.
Keep at it, you're doing what I can't. I was struggling to enjoy art even before the AI surge, now I feel like I don't want to do it anymore.
@@herpderp3916 I haven't stopped, except after my dad passed away last month I haven't drawn anything for a while. But before he passed away he and my mom told me to keep at it.
bro, just treat these as tools and find ways to combine them with your craft. for example, look at the industry when machines first got out, however, people still buy human-crafted shoes, or cars for example, it has never lost its value, in fact, it has increased and human-crafted stuff is treated nowadays like a treasure and costs a fortune.
I feel that this will also intimidate a lot of people just stepping into the art scene… it’s the whole “why try when I will have no way of keeping up.” - There’s a major sense of hopelessness, and it also feels like the same factor of which some schools take back on art classes, reducing self expression… in favor of just logic.
I feel like we forget that expression, emotion… is what makes us uniquely human, and when we deprive ourselves of emotion, we’re just hollow, and majority of the time apathetic. (This doesn’t mean that more non-creative people are not empathetic or sympathetic, I’m more or less saying if there are no outlets that enable expression, then things WILL likely get darker within ourselves.)
Please be strong my fellow artists, we, together, need to express ourselves and let the world know we are a part of the spark of emotion and creativity, we need each other, and so long as we lift each other up, there’s light ahead.
well, giving low voltage tech couple years ago had to ivest 10 k plus in re learning about underground fiber optic wire, coal miner lost ther job and the response from society was , get good at coding, our fishing industry nearly got jacked by china 2 years ago, and fisherman took a huge lost as individuals, farmers lost their whole farms via buy back because of petty political reason... I think yall artist kinda need to own upto the change of time, especially given the contributtion factor you allplayed inenergiing the left to do what theyve done... fuck it... art shouldnt start witht hte idea of making it an industry.. an rightly so its beinng ripped from under yall ungratefull kids.. go do game desiging its art right... well there ya go. yall video game art designers wanna be nothing more.. unless your doing art not for cash. like coal miner, they are just untrainedcoder really XD Lol
Thank you, half of these people just don't understand why we are artists and put us down because of AI art. You have my respect.
Art started because humans have always had the urge to mimic, copy and tell a story, it's a fundamental part of being a human, it's just recent that we could really make money from it, however making money have never been the main goal, and I think the human desire to make art will still exist no matter what and we should still do the things we love
but we still need to money
I 100% use midjourney as a hobby. I have 7700 images generated as well. Sometimes i believe "artists" forget some of us just use AI to kill time.
@@OrangeHeadTM sadly, by doing so, time is not the only thing you're killing.
@@jjstarrprod what else am i killing?
@@OrangeHeadTM actual artists careers.
You do know that some people on this planet are doing this for a living, right ?
Believe it or not, but for a lot of people, art is not just a hobby, but a full-time job that pays their rent, their food, their bills, their family's livelihood.
Seeing so many bored people prompting some random stuff and slapping some existing artists styles on it is effectively flooding the market with trillions of lookalike images, therefore, plummetting the value of said artist's artistry, since now, everybody with a computer and a few prompts can do "the same" (minus the human eyes and hands -for now) for free and in no time, therefore bringing said artist value to virtually zero, so that said artist can no longer make any income, pay his rent/bills/family needs, and has to abandon this career he/she spent years if not decades honing their skills and experience to find a job in a completely unrelated profession where he has zero experience and has to start all over at the lowest ring and payroll. And that is IF they are lucky enough to find another job in another field, which most of the time, certainly doesn't happen overnight (sometimes a few weeks, sometimes a few months, if not years... And during that time, the bills always come due, and the already meager saving of said artist are melting like snow under the sun, and by the end of a few months, they're living on the street already, and everybody knows that when you end up in the streets, it's for life ! Nobody makes it out of the street.
How do I know all this ? I AM one of said artists whose livelihood is directly under threat by this so called AI revolution and its irresponsible use by its irresponsible devs and users who think it's just a hobby for when they're bored, while an entire swath of the population (yes, guess what ? All your MCU, all your Star Wars, all your Netflix shows and Game of thrones and LOTR, and Harry Potter, and all your anime, all of it all are done by actual full time artists PROFESSIONALS ! Not hobbyists.
Professionals whose profession is about to get obliterated all around the world because of people like you, who are just "killing time")
being an artist is all I ever wanted to do and have passion for, and seeing how fast AI has progressed is very discouraging. I really don't know what the future holds for us artists but I hope we can get through this
Do not ever give up. I wish I could say when this technology will stop advancing, but you can never know with these things, but know this. All „AI” up until this point has been extremely overhyped, and even the best „AI” we currently have(ChatGPT) is extremely expensive to run. So dont give up, and hope for a better year in 2023.
it's over
Oh my God, Shut up! I don't mean to take my anger out but it just doesn't help when people say words like it's over at least on this comment section are trying to be optimistic. It's getting too weird ,too creepy , too ridiculous and at this point tech people who create ai or either taking it too far or there just doing too much . I know I shouldn't let the news get to me but still . 😤
I agree. I started my channel on here two years ago. Recently I've been working really hard and have seen that pay off with a little bit of growth. I was so excited to keep going...but then I saw a lot of AI making better work than I can at the moment... Who wants to watch me draw at 10x speed while talking about the process when you can just click click and boom.
I will continue to create; I do feel the invalidation, the lack of respect, the lack of fairness... I feel the "you're just goin to have to just deal with this because there's nothing you can do."
I tried Dall-e. It's really good. I mean it came up with really solid concepts. AT this point it can be a tool. But the fear is when it gets better; when every element looks right the first time.
I consumed every video I can on AI art and I can say I'm utterly exhausted of it. But I can't let this ruin my hope. I've been working on my channel for way more than 2 years. Almost a decade of getting a copic marker collection, different paper, paints, pencils, tools, even digital. I refuse to let that to go shit because a machine.
I small part of me has hope that people will see the issue here. "Normal" content creators are starting to talk about this and they too are saying the same as us. There is an ethical issue here and it needs to be addressed. I believe it will be.
Whatever anyone does, please do not give up. None of you.
I disagree but let's hope you're invalidation of my legitimate concerns are right; if so then we have nothing to worry about. I stand by my statement; until proven otherwise.

The thing is... Art is as much about the process as about the final result. With AI you get only the final result.
Why would anyone watch a speedpaint video when you can just scroll to the end and just look at the result?
@@SliceOfFish Because, at least for me, it's rewarding to watch the process. I like to see the HOW and the WHY. it's fun for me. That's why I like RUclips. I never get bored of speedpaints or watching people's process. That helps me learn but I also find it entertaining and engaging. It's something we do, it's fun for us, we talk and we hang out. it's a community and an experience. There's isn't much to say about a piece of art if the process is altogether void. We know exactly how AI art is made...but the human experience is diverse and unique. That's just me though.
really wanna know why this video has so many dislikes. ai bros mad again ig
It is all the AI bros who have a seething hatred for anything that requires talent.
@@Taskicore Talent, a natural aptitude or skill. I've definitely seen people put other artists down because they weren't "Talented enough". The art community is hilariously conceited. As always, pride comes before a fall.
No machine will ever take the place of the wonder of choosing you paints, preparing your canvas, painting with soul and beautiful expression, feeling through the medium of choice and the satisfaction of creating something with your hands. It is a gift to cherish and hate, never give up your art.
No AI can compare, it just sucks the pleasure out of humanity.
Those in tech that puh it and smite it etc, are truly poor unimaginative creatures.

I'm not an artist but I've always been a decent writer and I wanted to release a book one day. AI is going to destroy writers as well and now I wonder what the point is if an AI can write a book on any subject better than I can. I feel very depressed, thinking about AI just makes me want to die sometimes.
I swear if we start to consume entertainment without any human intervention the species is doomed
Same here. I am not pursuing a path towards a job in writing but I always wanted to write alongside a job that can support me. AI will saturate the market so badly that it will be impossible for even good writers to gain any readership.
If it will be able to write better than most humans, literature as an art form will be rendered obsolete.
Ask any historian, artifacts, aka art, define a culture. If you dug up a culture where art was made via AI, you wouldn't be able to couple the individuals of that society to the images. AI isn't a human artifact but rather an exploitation of it.
I learn a couple if languages as hobby and did think about becoming a translator or some sort when I was a kid. I’m kinda glad I stayed on hobbyist level of multilingualism, translation is absolutely going to get taken over by AI.
@@Jacky-zt5ch Google translate has existed for a long time and seems to work fine. A universal translator like in the Star Trek franchise seems viable but not with current technology. Hell, most AI doesn't even understand what I'm saying in my first language.
While I was looking at some of the best AI images out there I suddenly realized that there was nobody behind them, they didn't have a soul, no story behind them. The images were really great - what famous rockstars would look like if they were children. Apart from the hands, twisted or having 7 fingers, all else was really, really amazing. But somehow they didn't resonate with me at all. One can perhaps argue that for example if you are fooled into believing that some AI images were created by a human artist you would look at them with the same admiration as you do normaly. But then again, when you look at art you always search for the soul behind it no matter if you are looking at human art or you are fooled with AI art presented as human. Art is a soul searching activity.
I just got back into drawing, I'm not trying, hoping, or planning to make money off of it or anything like that, but even in my position I still find AI art annoying. Just not being able to discern between human created art and AI art online because they all get mixed in together. And knowing that if I make something good it could be used in some algorithm to be weaponized against the community that I drew inspiration from. But you're right, it forces us to make sure we draw for ourselves, which is a silver lining to a very bad situation.
See, I feel totally the opposite. AI art is what's getting me back into drawing, it's a wonderful tool and an infinite generator for references that will revolutionize the art industry. It is an amazing source of inspiration that should not be feared or hated as much as it is imo. Of course, AI art has its downsides but it has so much potential to be used justly. Like all things, it will be used immorally for profit. Yet I think artists shouldn't be resistant to the idea of AI art entirely.
@@alita8900 Companies are shit bags, always are. So they will use it to snuff out millions of jobs if it means they make so much as a few dollars more a year. That's kinda the problem.
Artists don't have much of a problem with it, short of people training AI using their works without permission. I mean you see lora models out there directly stealing someone's work to replicate it basically.
As an ex AI prompter, I'm sick of people who mock real artists. How sad their lives must be if they are so happy about the lives, careers, dreams falling apart. Not a single mentally healthy person would enjoy the suffering of a person. Using AI doesn't make you an artist, it's simply product consumption with extra steps, while true art is made with effort, love and actual soul.
This is very, very well-said, "product consumption with extra steps" is perfect.
The AI "watch the world burn because MY life is miserable" crowd is constantly talking about an end product and how consumable a product is, and that's it. There's no concept of how a great end product comes from the collaboration of a paid team of artistic minds. Art isn't an end product, it's a process that results in an end product.
"Soon we can enter a prompt and it will generate a full movie for me!", all the while not realizing that a brilliant movie is made through the collaboration of a team of artistic minds with human spontaneity that, no matter what, cannot properly be replicated by a machine. Even at it's best, there is an organic way that our animal minds work - messy, imperfect - that creates incredible art with depth and meaning. Something just "looking cool" doesn't make it art, it makes it a consumable for you to ingest while you munch on snacks and twiddle your toes in your grandparents' fart-soaked recliner.
When you've been watching only AI movies for years, your prompts are going to be based on other prompted movies, and so on, and eventually the quality of the movies that you're generating will be about as complex as "worker and parasite" from The Simpsons.
They are focusing solely on the consumption of media, any media at all, and not how great media is created or what art actually is... just consume, consume, consume. In, in, in.
@@greg_online I fully agree
Not using AI doesn't make you an artist either, hack. Plenty of accomplished traditional artists love and utilize generative AI. Imbecile.
really? people have souls now, are you making this claim literally? AI art is just as valid as any other method its just easier to render. It wont make the theme, concept, characters, context anything like this you have to make yourself and try to get the bot to follow
Thank you. I have been feeling the same for months now. I’m sorry that you feel this way, but this message helps so much, knowing that other artists feel the way I do.
I remember when I was using these old computers as a junior at work and we used to joke how the computers were so slow they couldn't keep up with our fast typing speeds, fast forward to today and i'm blown away with how computers are faster and quicker and extremely creative now with this AI. I was also watching someone else say that their coding careers are now on the line too as that chatgpt was able to write code. But what I'm really waiting for, and it will happen, is how the big mega music corporation industry deals with this AI mutiny, as they are extremely sensitive and precious and brutal when it comes to people using or playing their music or sounds, just waiting patiently for that volcano to explode to see what happens, maybe something will be done then. And about art, it is very sad to see people with no art experience whatsoever come in and be like all excited and say they're an artist now making money off it, it's a massive slap in the face to real talented artists.
Funny how designers try to be all positive about this, meanwhile reportedly (according to an article by Insider) staff members at Adobe said on internal Slack channel that Firefly is "depressing" and causing them "existential crisis". I mean... if ADOBE STAFF calls it depressing, why are artists positive? It's depressing and horrendously dystopian. Some people just refuse to see it. Adobe is adding it because they have no choice as other companies would do it anyway... but people who work there hate it
Thank you for your encouragement! I love your genuine nature. It is so therapeutic for me drawing. I had someone recently do an Ai render that they wanted me to recreate to give the more human touch. Keep on keepin on yo! You’re such an inspiration.
Bwahaha! Rage yoga!!! Yes!!!
There will be a small market for human made art. The limited time of a human life and the consciousness having a human experience are aspects that makes you special. Some people will prefer that to a machine, but unfortunately the masses will not care.
As a musician since 1986 I am glad to no longer be dependent on making money with art. It's heartbreaking for me to see fellow artists suffer like that. Make a spiritual experience out of it, I guess. All the best!
So so relevant to how I'm feeling, and it even happens to be the holiday season once again. Thank you for putting it into words in a calming manner, and your art is lovely
I don't know how this video got so many downvotes when it's just an artist voicing their fears and offering sentimental motivations to others. She's not even being confrontational to anybody. What kind of psychopathic community comes by just to mass downvote a video that's only promoting better mental health for the people at risk of a disruptive technology?
The AI at community is a cult that worships greed, laziness and selfishness, and hates artists. And is also filled with misogynists.

Don't be sad. People on social media say all kinds of things just to get under your skin for a few laughs. Don't let it affect your mental health by doomscrolling. Randoms on social media can't take away the meaning art has for yourself, as an important skill that helps you express yourself. Secondly, don't underestimate the appreciation people have for artists. I'll always hold an original illustration by Kentaro Miura in higher regard than, say, the creations of an AI simply copying his style. Also, as many people have pointed out before me, artists need to become more assertive about the legal limits of AI art.
I've been doomscrolling on the Stable Diffusion subreddit. The anti-humanism, entitlement, and cruelty on that sub is stomach turning. They think if an artist's style is ripped by an AI, it actually benefits the artist because now "the general public knows who he is." I keep responding to them, but it's a losing battle.

Haha my mom needs to hear this, she's an artist. Yeah, I think everyone should concider like trice to "live as an artist". She became a teacher, and even worse a college one. She is really known in the medium at international circles. Her veredict? Not a good life, like at all. She was passionate teaching students at first, but she lost all hope in two years. I remember vividly the moment she looked at me dead in the eye and told me to never become an artist, and I took her word for it. She showed me angrily how her students never ever gave not even the slightest effort, she encouraged them to create whatever they want and ind the end it was all mediocre, devoid of soul or made five minutes before the class. It saddens me quite a bit, she was passionate and cheerful but her students took that away, let alone the idea of "living as an artist"
no you won't. unless your work is PHEMONENAL, like, psychotically amazing, no one will care about your work or pay you for work. trust me. I got a bachelor's in illustration, biggest waste of fucking money I ever spent. at the very least, I would tell people if they insist on the artist's path, art college is NOT necessary whatsoever. when watching youtube videos you can learn for free.
@@CommentReader Nope, your work doesn't need to be phenomenal to get attention or to sell. That is the biggest lie they tell you. If you want your work to sell and be seen, you need to be a very good at promoting and advertising your work in key places. That takes a ton of time and it is the reason why big artists and corporations have marketing teams to promote their work. Have something that is relatable/appealing to the masses. Find an art nice, have decent art and struggle with the social media algorithm. It also takes a little bit of luck with all of this.
Your art can be the most unique and amazing thing since Van Gogh/Picaso, but if you don't know how to advertise and don't have the right audience it it will be lost in the millions of images on the internet/world.
@@yake2685 Just because she teaches annoying rude kids doesn't mean she can't enjoy making her own art and being an artist. People can have different jobs and still be artists.
To me it seems she is regretting becoming a teacher and not her personally regretting being an artist. I don't see how her students took that away from her and why she told you to never become an artist. I would understand if she told you to not become a teacher because of the ungrateful and rude kids.
I recommend everyone to have fun with art. And if you make art do it for yourself. But if you want to make a living out of only doing art and not have any other job, be very aware that like in most fields these days it is a bit hard to find clients and be stable until you establish a client base that you can sell your work to. Unless you're going to get a career in healthcare or as an essential worker, you're not guaranteed to be hired easily anywhere. And this is the truth even for engineers and many other fields. Sadly, I know way too many engineers, even architects who struggle to find work and be paid decently.

I have read a lot of these AI enthusiasts mocking artists who criticize AI, only to come to the realisation that even tech jobs can be done with AI. I really understand your struggle and appreciate your work, so I want to share two things with you, one regarding art as passion, and one regarding art as a job.
1) On art as passion. A labour like yours is intrinsically passional like no other and no one who does not like art is willing to go through all the process that takes to be a good artist. As a matter of fact, artists often share some personality traits that drive them to express themselves through art. Only because your labour is not the most productive one - in a materialistic sense - it is often not recognised. It does take a deep spirit to hold art in high esteem, and this is something that many of the bison heads out there will never be able to grasp. Hence, even if you cannot make a career out of art (which I will discuss in a moment), never stop creating just because some machine can reproduce some picture in a matter of seconds. Chess grandmaster Bobby Fischer thought Chess was dead because of computers, but the game is today more alive than ever before, and its community and the interest in Chess is ever growing. This is, I predict, the future of art.
2) On art as a job. If you want to have a career based on art, it is true that you will have to learn to use these new technologies, for they are unstoppable, for better or worse. They cannot be stopped because there are too many political interests to develop them, so everyone should start to accept that they have come to stay. This does not mean that you have to give up on doing art in a more traditional way, but that it will not be enough to make a career out of it. "Don Quixote long ago paid the penalty for wrongly imagining that knight errantry was compatible with all economic forms of society". Do learn to live in this new world that is coming, but don't ever drop your passion, for job is what makes you survive, but passion is what makes you live.
I think one solution may be to make a directory of 100% organic created content creators.. or perhaps some kind of label could be displayed so real art is authenticated.. similar to labels on food. we need transparency
Yes, support socially, financially and advertise sites that are pro-human. Avoid social media, support protective networks.
This video is very helpful.
Before all these things of AI, I stoped to draw last year due to personal problems and the economy of my country. I've needed to work in another area to pay my bills even I was drawing hard to enter in the art industry. But I've alaways kept in my mind that it will be just for a while and soon I'd will start to draw again.
Since i stat to see this scenario of AI popularity, I started to think "Ok! Where I go now?"
I think your words kept me more calm.
Thanks a lot!
It takes a lot of strength to make videos like this, on topics that affect people's lives so deeply. I just want you to know that you aren't alone in your feelings and the artist community will find the light at the end of this tunnel. Stay well and keep making art the way you want to!
Rage yoga YESSS FINALLY!
Also I'm not gonna lie, I was thinking of this a lot too.
A commentary YTer I admire posted a video about AI and basically had the stand point of "everyone samples art why be upset." It was a crushing.
As artist we carefully construct a shell around our feelings, our self worth and egos.
"Don't compare your art", "Trust your process", "Don't burn yourself out", "keep pushing for creativity" "remember why you love art". Everyone being compared especially young beginners, seeing them look at the summit of art through the lense of AI and saying "I'll never be able to climb that" and turn away. It sucks.
But I keeping thinking of artist back in the day; Van Gogh painting everyday in the countryside thinking "No one will ever like my art, I'll never be anything."
To now not only be world renowned but his art pieces touching ppls hearts in ways he could have never imagined.
We in the moment feel so helpless and miniscule but if one person sees that art and feels something genuine I think that something worth pushing for, because who knows what the future holds. Maybe one day there will be a Dune-like rejection of computers and AI and all that will be left is what humans put their hearts into.
That is very well-said. Thank you 🫂💗
This video is something I really needed to hear, especially since I don't have a lot of art friends to talk to who can relate. Thanks for taking the time to make and post this
Thank you for speaking about this. Just adding my own two cents: I genuinely believe that there is some synergy, something more than the sum of parts that authentically created art has, a real sense of emotion that simply can never be replicated.
Our minds are not even close to being understood by us, so they can never be recreated. This is an extremely existentially distressing issue, however, as an artist.
I wish you and every artist, creative, human… the best.
Without the hard work of awesome artists who are so creative and imaginative, there wouldn't be data to feed AIs. I wish them immense courage to overcome these feelings. Please remember that you are irreplaceable.
Hell, you're making this video and here I am *starting* traditional painting, knowing this AI thing exists. No one has ever cared what I've done or how hard I've worked for anything or how talented I've ever been at anything. So I go into this knowing damn well it's just going to be for me.
I have been drawing since I was a kid, I’ve often struggled for a long time not only mentally but the fact that I have never felt like my art has gotten where I want it, and this influx of AI Art Theft has made me seriously consider giving up. To feel like a machine can do “art” better than I have ever come close…..thank you for making this video, it’s not easy, but I won’t stop. Thank you for your channel as well, you have done so much to help me get better or at the very least, feel better about my art.
Keep going dude you got this
Why not learn to use the AI to take your art to the next level? It's not a replacement to you as an artist, but a new paradigm in tools enabling your creativity. Much like digital design tools were a new paradigm compared to physical brushes and paint. Learn to prompt properly, remix datasets with one another, reroll specific parts of images, and do manual touch-ups where AI struggles. You can even hand create base images and have AI create something around it. AI WILL make an impact in many many fields and there's no putting the genie back in the bottle. You will either need to learn to use it, learn to compete with it by hand (100% possible), or you get left behind. That goes for artists, programmers, or writers. Keep an open mind and good luck.
@@fernandae.d.332 Then do it your way, but learn to compete. Like I said in my pregious comment.
@@fernandae.d.332 Its the definition of Fair Use actually since its a transformative work
@@fernandae.d.332 ok then why not learn something not as replaceable like architecture?
We don't want AI art, we want your human art. It will always be like that. The human spirit is what we want to support and buy art from. There are visions and ideas that only humans can create in their minds and put into their art that is more valuable than anything else. AI just use existing images from your art and that should be regulated under rule and laws that YOU decide as human artists. Get together, form groups, form unions, and get good spokespersons to lift your fears and desires up and front.
We must make this good in harmony and balance for all humans - and respect that AI is just a tool which must be regulated and under the control of the ARTISTS not only science, businesses, or states.
You are so beautiful and valuable to the industry, we must protect and help you - not the machines.
This ai stuff is like the art equivalent of a participation trophy, people who never got past finger painting now think they’re special because they can type words into a computer, anyone can do that, pick up a pencil and draw.
That’s such a good comparison, I agree
@@Cha4k there is something to worry about: the non-artist degenerates who use ai to make art steal not only pieces of work from other artists who did not consent to have their work to be stolen, but also the recognition of other artists who are trying to make money off their hardwork. it's easy for you to say, since you're probably not an artist
Ai is just giving unearned privilege away
Could you not say that the code, created by the programmer, that can generate AI art, is not, in of itself, art.
L.
i appreciate you so much. i have been feeling like ALL of this, holidays are icky and this whole ai art bs has made me feel like i should give up art. but dw i won't it just sucks because i keep getting those thoughts. at the end of the video when you said "don't give up" bro i was cooking while watching and i straight up starting cry like a baby ;m;
this year i decided to take art seriously and try to become a better artist and you are one of the artists i have looked up to / been learning from so seeing this from you means so much to me ; 3 ;
also PLS do a rage yoga video lol
Ever since I was a kid I only ever made art for myself, and for the people in my life who I knew would appreciate it. For me it was, and is, therapeutic, it was fun, and it was a way for me to communicate my word through images as an autistic person who always struggled with communicating my thoughts.
And while a part of me would love to be a career artist, it's also an aspiration that I don't allow to affect my value as an artist. For me, letting go of that pressure to "careerify" my artistic worth was critical to improving my relationship with my art and with myself. Weather I make a million dollars or nothing, I'm still an artist, and I always will be. If I make art, I'm an artist. I've already *made* it. It's not much, but it's enough.
To any artist who reads this, I love you, and I love your art. Even if you don't, or can't, or if no one else in your life does, I do. And I always will. I swear on every last drop of ink I've put to parchment. You are an artist. You are enough.
It's good to focus and get excited with your own projects. The mind is so fragile and we can slip so easily. If art is your safe place then forget what others are doing. Always strive to become better and help others discover more
It's nice to see people promoting hope in others but avoiding the toxic positivity at the same time. As someone who's been drawing most of my life (near to 20 years) but also explores other mediums like music composition and game development engines, I can't say all that time was dedicated to art exclusively, but it has always been the first medium I turn to for self expression. I recall years ago, that I said, "the day I put down the pencil for good, thats the day I truly die." I've wanted to give up before. I've seen young artists zip past me in mere MOMENTS. I've seen people once my pupil surpass me. But I had to reconnect with the purpose, why I started, why I do it. Much like you've said. I do feel many artists these days view their art first as a product and maybe not at all as an extension of their being.
I'll be upfront. I'm pro AI, but with caveats. We need ethically sourced datasets, so people can feel more secure about their art being stolen. I think that people shouldn't be able to get away with claiming they made a piece, as that's also disrespectful to the ai itself. When I have made a few "ai arts" it has been started with my own hand drawn image, refined with ai, then edited by me, in a back and forth conversation, resulting in some impressive work. I think if more people could use it this way, it would be for the better. It's helped me to learn and desire to try new brushes, methods, etc, and it's honestly made my fire to draw burn hotter, not colder.
I personally don't fear ai taking my style or my work. Try as it may, it can make pretty pictures, but it can't form a relationship with a fan base, engage them and involve them in their project, and come to foster and love a community in the same way a human can. By all means, I think we as artists need to understand our value, but not be absorbed in our hubris either. I am intermediate at best, but I imagine more professional artists may be at a point where they have "hit their peak" and to see something generate quality similar to theirs may terrify them or challenge their sense of control. But as I said, I feel this is very similar to seeing an artist more skilled than oneself whipping up an art faster. That shouldn't make us stop. Our art is expression of our experiences, of our feelings, the lessons and stories we want to share. And whether or not a human or an ai can make it "faster" or "better" is no reason to throw how far we've come away. I think if you love art more for the number of likes and views than the process of making it, you've lost sight of the heart in your art to begin.
Art on its own doesn't have inherent meaning or value. WE. Give it that.
I'm glad i'm not the only one. You're strong girl , we can with this!
My advice to you younger artist, remembrance the traditional mediums and tools. We all start with paper and pencil. Then you might add markers, color pencils and paints. A.I. art cannot compete with mixed media on canvas. A.I. cannot create a fresh new character with a cool wash, acrylic or inks on it. Clay statues...metal work, glitter on poster board....forget it!! A lot of you grew up with Photoshop or Gimp or Applepads and that's your baseline frame of reference for art....time to evolve and really come into the craft. Buy some watercolors, pastels and an actual set of graphite pencils, canvas paper, canvas board, and tap into the 1 thing A.I. will never be able to reproduce, raw human creativity. All I see with A.I art is reproduced digital work, not one piece that looks like authentic paint on canvas. Build up another skillset away from the tech.
I was thinking about switching to traditional art since AI art came out, there are few job ideas that I have I have. Thank you
You'd be surprised how well AI can emulate traditional media. Eventually hardware AI will copy artists to paint physically, or 3D printers will make paint layers indistinguishable. The whole advancement of AI is about faking the process so you can't detect it.
Hehe, here I am just starting my art journey. I don’t give a crap. I’m doing this for me.
I’m going back to traditional.
I did that too. But it still feels half moronic to be doing them. Thanks to AI. I still get some satisfaction, but in the same time it doesn't feel as meaningful as it used to.
This is like an episode of Black Mirror. As a teacher, I believe this will come for us too.

It's okay artists, we can still make hands!
AI can make hands now.
this is so sad, we will se what happens.. stay strong artists I respect you all
I left art years ago, and definitely don't love the "real work" I do now, but I like the dignity of working and the purpose of my contributions. It may take a little longer, but automation and MLMs will definitely impact my field too, so I'm well aware I may lose all that soon. The AI adoption chatter at my company is stressful at times, so I have empathy for what you're going through.
I'm also not sure stripping humans of their purpose en masse is a good thing from a sociological or psychological standpoint. Guess we'll find out.
(Also it's perplexing to see so many bugmen in the comments gleeful for people to be unemployed.)
So, I started drawing for myself when I was 21 and I would never have shown my art to anyone if it wasn't for my sister that found out that I drew a year after I started. I never cared about showing it to anyone, not because I thought it was bad, but because the point of it was to carry me through my anxiety and insomnia. It gave me literally a thing to focus on when I was in a never ending loop of bad thoughts.
Now I'm 26 and this hole AI thing happens. At first I was like "Interesting...I guess we will see." now it's a bit more complicated then that. I'm a philosophy major and I couldn't stop thinking about the meaning of it. And to me, right now, it's a giant beast (Wether it's good or bad), a strange thing that produces images salvaging what it can from artists. Meaning that without art it can't do anything. If we stop making art, it will only make this beast repeat the same theme and ideas. It will, as it is right now, only create a strange eco chamber of what was but never achieve what could have been. (One exemple is the fact that it already chow some bias in gender roles like a nurse will be a woman 90% of the time).
Honestly, I think it could be amazing in the right hands. But like pretty much anything, in the hands of people looking for a quick cash in... well, the prospect in grimm. I also think we will be in the "Wild West" of AI for a few years and hopefully not longer. In the end it still could be amazing that, with the help of an AI, you could animate a character that you have design and drew in different poses and angles. An artist could make a short film, or a fan film with the help of his personal assistant AI. I guess that's the key word here, AIs should be assistants not replacements.
I could literally write a essay about this, this gives me a feeling of existential dread that I only feel when thinking about my nation disappearing (I'm from Québec, @AdamDuffArt used the nation exemple in one of his videos at my surprise and I feel it's accurate.). Feeling your hole identity shifting is painful as hell... But I really have to stop writing because if I don't this comment will be a never ending rambling.
By the way english is not my first language, so if there's any spelling mistake let me know so I can correct them.
No, It won't eco chamber, but it won't guarantee something good with its changes, it'll need human feedback to know that yeah this change X is good. Which we'll happily provide at no cost in some way, like we did with capcha to teaching AI to recognize patterns. It'll already have a good base, so the evolution won't be bumpy as it could have been a few years ago.
90% of nurses are female so that wouldn’t be bias, that’s just reality.
@@daruthebeast Well, I'm going to have a lot more reading to do before I have a clear Idea about where it's going. I was mostly rambling in my comment. I'll keep that in mind during my research in the future. Thanks.
@@magnusred2945 I'll assume that you mean no harm here. I won't go into detail but I still think philosophie is useful, what's wrong with thinking, right?. That's why I decided to study it. But I also went to grab a Political science degree too. And if you wonder I'm working a stable job that is most likely useful to society since it's a gouvernement job. It's not great fun, but it's definitely not boring and it's good work for my humble life.
@@BlackBull. Don't be sorry, this is quite funny. Thanks for sharing this XD.
when i started drawing, illustration, concept art, whatever, t'was just a hobby. And if the satisfaction of a "job well done" was nice, i think that what exited me the most (and still does) is to see the wonder in the eyes of thoses who see my stuff as their ideas ou whole univeres comes to life before their eyes. And i thought for a long time that this would be my ideal job, my ultimate objective : to bring this wonder that started at my TTRPG tables in boarding school to the most of people...
Now i'm just... tring to get a goddamn job to feed myself each month and i just get rejected, and rejeted, and rejected, and i am so... tired.
I try to keep drawing, but each time it feels more hollow, and i just see the flaws and i just see all thoses stuffs that just make me feel irrelevant. I want to keep the art, and live for it, but it's so goddamn hard, and it feels like nothings ever is enough or work out... I dont know where i'm going with this, i guess i just wanted to talk,

This is very touching to see and listen too. All art is the expression of one's self. It doesn't matter if you love to create art with drawing, or even with words. Art is a way to express one's self, regardless of your skill level. I love to draw and write. Sometimes it's my way of coping and escaping reality, even if for a short time. Art is a way to free the mind, even if we don't think we're great at it. We learn and grow with every step. We learn and teach others when we show a bit of ourselves in the things that we create. There are many communities that share in the same interests, and sometimes it's hard to reach out, but they are there for everyone. To everyone out there, never lose hope in the passions you hold dear. We are the hearts and souls behind it all, and technology is but a tool we created.
The amount of coping, selfishness and shallow thinking in this comment section is mind boggling.
I’m very concerned for the Art community and this big change in their lives. We live in a world whereby people are lazy and want instant outcomes and solutions.
How can artists compete with a tool like this?
Employers don’t care how it’s done or care about the painstaking task artists go through - they want multiple options and they want to see results immediately.
By putting your own selfie video in parallel with your sped-up painting process, you have instinctively put forth the human factor which is so much sought when we contemplate Art 💓
Your art is so amazing, you really should not worry about AI art. It sucks that they steal from artists to make their "art" but they can't replace your skill.
Exactly
On one hand, as both a technician and artist, I am worried about AI....for everyone. And the reason? Well, because of how absolutely false your statement is. In other words..... yes, they CAN. That is ABSOLUTELY the rabbit hole we are headed down. :-(
@@SomeDumUsrName When I say "they steal from artists" I am talking about the people who take the art from other people and feed it to the AI. The AI itself is simply a tool that can be used in many helpful ways if the right people use it.

People in my own community are using ai art for profile pictures and backgrounds etc. I don't get comissions from any of them anymore. Ai art has thanos snapped my repeat customer-base.
Hey Chrissa, I really feel you! For years, art was the only thing that kept me away from 'unaliving' myself, and it has taken a huge toll on my mental health. Currently I stopped doing Digital art and switched to learning traditional media that I was always interested in (Oils and watercolor) just to discover that Stability AI is already planning to do that as well.
I feel extremely discouraged, but I hope our community can be stronger than ever and find a solution together.

I am sorry to hear that impacted so much on you. Please look at your art! It has emotions in it.

I keep telling myself its time to give up because AI is here and it will only get better. My mental health has been so terrible, I feel like this thing that means so much to me is being given to a robot instead. Its like my feelings dont matter. It sounds so dystopian in a way. When you started crying, I started sobbing too and let out all that rage and pain that has been building up inside of me regarding this. watching this video made me realise there is people out there who feel the same as me and i am not overreacting. It hurts, it hurts so much. Im sending you virtual hugs!!! Youre awesome, lets keep this support going in out little community because no robot out there can truly take our place. they cant feel what we feel, they cant get together like we can with so much love for art and each other.
No you're not overreacting. I have had days when I feel way worse than she shows on the video. Like I want revenge, deep anger I feel some days, not just sadness. Not just anger for my own fate, but the fate of young people who dreamed of art careers. I want to avenge them all, but I just don't know how.
It's really really tragic thing. But for only to some people, the ones who felt art is their "calling in life". For most people it means nothing, they can't relate. These "get over it, jobs have always been replaced" people don't realize that it's WAY more than a job. It was the very meaning of our life. Very core of our identity. In the same way our face is, or a mother's only child is. It's not just a job, it was the most important thing about us as a person. More important than our face, actually.
You'll be alright! Real talent doesn't lie.
My humble opinion being someone who loves art, but has never aimed to sell anything: What makes art worth millions? I suggest that the answer is the artist. People don't want "Starry Night". They want "Van Goghs Starry Night". I think people are driven more to the artist and the idea/story that creates a painting/song/story than the actual piece of art itself. I think artists will be fine personally!
DaVinci didn't paint starry night, Van Gogh did. I agree with your sentiment though 👍
@DeadHouse hahahaha thanks for the correction :D there we go, fixed that up.
Well, that’s great for the 0.001% of artists who reach Van Gogh status. It’s not really a lot of consolation to the vast majority who rely on commercial work to pay the bills while trying to make a name people care about.

I have a lot of thoughts about AI-generated content, which I should probably turn into a video as well. Basically, I think humans have some very real advantages that make me a little less nervous. We can show process, we can tell stories. The magic trick of putting paint, pencil, or pixels onto a surface, and it becomes a little alternate reality is something that only we can really do. You can enter the mind of an artist, but there is no “mind” in the computer.
the mind of the computer is the code itself. the source of the code is the programmer. the mind of the programmer is the same brain of an artist.
@@emikomina it's ridiculous how people don't see the difference. programmer doesn't have any relation to the output that consumers get, consumers get the product made on the basis of the stolen art from everywhere on the net, exploiting living artists' creativity.
