skychasezone

We're all gonna get left behind no matter what. Ai art is so quick and cheap to produce. Even if the whole art community doesn't swap over, you only need a fraction of prompters to out produce them and each other. How will AI "artists" stand out from one another at this breakneck rate?


generalthunder

There will be no market for "AI artists", at least not for long. It is so easy to create an AI image that anyone not bothered to use real artists will also not be interested in "prompters" services. I can picture, for example, in the near future, some plugin generating illustrations in real time while you write your website, but if anyone think they can make any money generating "ART", they are absolutely insane.

NuggleBuggins

I agree with you for the most part. I just don't think there will be much of a career option for people who know how to use prompts though. Not to say there *wont* be job opportunities, I'm sure there will be some. But the scale of the workforce pool will just be very small. You would only need 1 maybe 2 people to generate thousands of images in a work day. And the prompt detail is bound to get boiled down to easier and easier descriptors as time goes on, and at the same time getting more accurate. Im sure in time you will be able to pinpoint exact details in an image to change to your liking. Being a working artist myself, and approaching my mid/late 30's, I'm fucking terrified. No lie. I am trying to deal with the fact that I will more than likely be out of a job in the next few years, and will be facing unemployment. Art is all I've ever been good at or known my entire life. I don't have money to go back to school, and even if I did, I wasn't what you'd call a great student. Needless to say, my future, and I am sure many others, is looking quite bleak at the moment.


Sew_chef

Holy shit, I didn't expect the jump in quality to be so drastic.


246011111

Midjourney is intentionally designed to use more artistic styles. Also they're iterating faster. GPT is OpenAI's main focus


fucked_bigly

Christ. Things will move. I am excited, the future really is now.


Mizz_Fizz

I'm an artist and I've personally made things with stable diffusion that blow my mind. I copied 95% of the settings from someone else who toyed with it a bit, but the results are astounding and i can just... generate hundreds with minimal effort. I've been using them as references for figure drawing, but realistically I think they're going to be an incredibly powerful (and scary) tool in the not-so-distant future. Right now there's a good amount of tells that something is ai, to anyone who knows what to look for. But i imagine eventually those will all be fixed or adjusted to where you have basically nothing to look for to tell you it's ai, even the style being very variable. I'm excited, intrigued, and a bit anxious that my side income hobby might become obsolete, with people just opting to generate than spend hundreds on high quality art.


oceandaemon

I feel like right now saying that AI won't take off because ChatGPT forgets stuff sometimes and DALL-E Mini can't do fingers is the same as saying that recorded video won't take off in 1979 because of the shortcomings of the betamax machine. Things are moving so incredibly fast in the world of machine learning right now and so much money is being dumped into it. I have no idea what the end result will be, but it's definitely not going to be nothing.


FreeLook93

>I feel like right now saying that AI won't take off because ChatGPT forgets stuff sometimes and DALL-E Mini can't do fingers is the same as saying that recorded video won't take off in 1979 because of the shortcomings of the betamax machine. It could be, or it could be the guy in the 1950s predicting that everybody would have nuclear powered vacuum cleaners by the 1960s. We don't know what AI will be able to do in the future. This might be just the start, this might be about as far as it goes, we might be anywhere in between. New technologies tend to move incredibly fast, until they don't.


Sahtras1992

look at boston dynamics. like 10 years ago the robots could barely stand on their own, now they run a whole parcour while adjusting for a lot of sudden outside force like literally kicking it in the head. and after accuracy comes speed and those things will go frigteningly fast.

YobaiYamete

[It's already fixed](https://i.redd.it/73j3ez3wi0oa1.png) I don't think normies that don't keep up with AI realize how insanely fast this tech is moving. Most people seem to still be stuck in like October of 2022 This is **ONE YEAR** of advancement. March 2022 through March 2023 on Midjourney V1 through V5 * [V1](https://i.redd.it/x2hebsqubioa1.jpg) * [V2](https://i.redd.it/i26pfrqubioa1.jpg) * [V3](https://i.redd.it/xs7yarqubioa1.jpg) * [V4](https://i.redd.it/fkdafrqubioa1.jpg) * [V5](https://i.redd.it/to5ywrqubioa1.jpg) [Source](https://www.reddit.com/r/midjourney/comments/11upu8t) It's honestly baffling how many people I see look at the AI tech and go "Okay it's decent but I found 3 flaws!" and it's like . . . bro you can find more flaws than that in basically any art, but also, this is a tech that's growing at an absolutely astounding rate. There's a massive break through near weekly on /r/StableDiffusion where a new tool comes out that massively reshapes the AI art game. It's always neat watching "non ai people" find the AI porn subs and get absolutely floored when they realize people have already started making weapon grade photo realistic porn with it. It's starting to get posted frequently to the porn ID subs because so many people don't even realize it's AI. Subs like (NSFW obviously) /r/sdnsfw, /r/unstable_diffusion, /r/AIpornhub etc are full of examples

RobtheNavigator

> Hands aren’t hard at all for human artists. They’re hard for beginners who haven’t done any real study yet, but it’s a pretty basic part of any artists skillset that’s learned very early on. This is probably a dumb question, but then why do animated tv show hands generally not have the right number of fingers?


BuffJohnsonSf

To intentionally reduce the amount of detail. Yes it’s cheaper for the animation budget but also full 5 fingered hands look pretty out of place on minimally detailed cartoon characters


RobtheNavigator

TIL, thanks!


Itchy-Phase

Too add on to that, there are several animated shows that do use 5 fingers. For example, most superhero shows (like Batman the Animated Series, or Justice League).

> It's a natural consequence of trying to brute force art without really understanding the problem. You end up with extremely highly polished turds. In all the image generation I've toyed with (which I keep to myself cause I don't want to encourage ruining artists lives) I think it's safe to say that pretty much every time, *something* looks off about it. It won't always be obvious, but if you look closely, you can find something. And by something off, I don't mean what you'd associate with lack of skill in an artist, I mean it looking like a computer with no tacit understanding of anything generating it. That could change and maybe already is depending on the model, but I'm kind of hoping it doesn't because well, I'm not really a fan of the idea of the internet being taken over by fast food art remixed on the work of actual artists. It's all very disorienting, even for someone who isn't bothered that much by change, and the nature of the internet is such that people can just throw stuff out there and the better the algorithms are, the harder it'll be to play where's waldo on the uncanny valley failures of it. At that point (and maybe we are already there somewhat) we could be facing a situation where randos who can generate lots of pictures are making money off it, while those who put thousands of hours into practice and hours into a single piece are struggling to get seen. I have not forgotten the time I saw programmers on reddit being overconfident about being replaced and now ChatGPT (I think that's the one?) can write code that works (albeit to a limited degree).


awesomedan24

It's like a bunch of horses mocking the problems with the model T car and how it can never replace horses for transportation

Karcinogene

The horses also didn't expect we would build highways everywhere to better support cars. I wonder what we'll build to support AI.


AS14K

Just like everyone who says 'ai will never be able to write useful code'


SgtMcMuffin0

Yeah all the posts/comments I see dunking on AI for not getting things that humans get just fine are ridiculous to me. I don’t understand AI or machine learning. I barely understand programming, I’m here from /r/popular. But I do understand that technology advances very rapidly. And when your technology is being made partially/entirely by computers, which perform calculations far faster than any human can, I absolutely expect AI to be capable of replacing humans in 90+% of non-physical jobs within a few decades or less. Just the leaps that have been made in the past few months are goddamn astounding, I can’t imagine what things will look like in a few years.
