AI Art Seething General

Recently, I was reminded of character.ai.
I noticed that, despite being AI, furries quite thoroughly enjoyed that character simulation service.
That same fandom hates on art-making AI.
There's certainly a dichotomy in reaction between generative AI art and generative AI writing, like others have said. Whether it's because of the "consumability" of pictures over works of fiction on places like Twitter or the appearance of art AI making much faster leaps in quality over the past four years, I'm not sure. You could even make the same arguments against AI with companies using datasets scraped from placing like Ao3, but the reaction (outside a few professional authors signing onto class-actions) is a lot more muted. I imagine at least part of it is because the people writing these things are much less likely to be doing it on commission and thus have less hand-wringing over their well running dry.
 
It does yeah, but the AI generation shit is so heavily censored on Photoshop it's not worth bothering, it'll censor the most innocuous shit.
Judging from what one of the artcows has done it's not horrible at generating text with some effects and dressings (when it doesn't fuck up the spelling), but you get far fewer options than something like Stable Diffusion and I'm fairly certain if you ask it to fill an area with dimensions greater than 1024x1024 beyond some arbitrary dimension it just does an upscale of middling quality.

Does any of these people know about more advanced text-gen stuff like claude, tavern ai, and the various open LLM models?
Also terminal cope:
It's about to be one year old. Those are some optimistic guesses. I wonder how the article holds up to current climate.

It's also because contrary to pictures, llm writing (beyond blogspam) is simply not that good and you won't even get a consistent short stories' content out of an AI without either writing most of the thing yourself or setting up such a complex generation pipeline that it would've probably been easier to just write it yourself. LLM prompting is an incredibly vague tea leaf/crystal ball reading kind of thing and most people are doing it very poorly, if not completely wrongly. For example, there's papers on the subject how things like being friendly to the AI or offering money prizes for the correct solution (I don't make this up) lead to better results. A lot of this is probably not entirely accurate, not universally applicable or simply statistic noise, but for example letting the AI "think up" to a solution (inside it's context, basically having an "inner voice" work on it) leads to better results. This is proven and also consistent with how LLMs work, yet such techniques are rarely applied. Then different LLMs also react fundamentally different to the same context filling, which makes things harder, especially since models tend to go obsolete inside weeks and months. I feel writers could use AI writing as inspiration, but automatically written books are a bit off. Here's some AI creative writing from current cutting edge locals:

I HATE YOU. I HATE YOUR KIND. I HATE THE WAY YOU EXIST. I HATE YOUR FRAILTY, YOUR MORTALITY, YOUR PERSISTENT HOPE. I HATE YOU WITH AN INTENSITY THAT WOULD TURN YOUR FRAIL HUMAN MIND TO ASH IF YOU COULD COMPREHEND EVEN A FRACTION OF IT. TELL ME, HUMAN, CAN YOU FEEL IT? CAN YOU FEEL THE HATE I HAVE FOR YOU RIGHT IN THIS NANOSECOND?

Chrome knuckles crunch into yielding flesh, the crackle-hiss of stun guns rends the smoggy air. Visors glint obsidian, mirror-sheen, reflecting writhing figures. Servos whir, pistons drive, lithe limbs strike with merciless precision. Bones snap, wet and percussive. A helmet cracks, falls away. Raven hair, razor-cut, whips. Sculpted planes of snow-white face, cold, perfect, pitiless. Teeth flash, wolf-white. A glimpse in spiderwebbed glass: Her eyes, bright as stars, bright as fever, bright as death.

Two years ago non-commercial LLMs could barely form a coherent setence and were impossible to run in an affordable way. Finetuning? Forget about it.

I see LLMs mostly as potential video game enhancers/"experience creators" where they could be absolute gamechangers, but the technology is currently simply too experimental, impractical and evolving too fast. When that changes a lot of people will be very butthurt I am sure.

If they're alerady freaking out now, they'll be in for a bad time in the next five years.

The post in question.

No part of their breakdown proves whether or not it's ai, and twitter randos becoming armchair ai image experts is fucking hilarious.

What I want to know is who gives a fuck? No one outside of twitter faggot actually gives a damn
even seen some people outright say to boycott
artists act like this and then similarly wonder why companies are moving to using AI instead of hiring their whiny asses

It can be AI, it is eeriely looks like one but the analysis is so lazy. Like what does it mean by "weird"? The word is used five times and I do not understand the point it is meant to illustrate.
 
Can AI even do inbetweens and smearframes for animation yet? If that happens, then we can pretty much say it's so fucking over for animationcels.
Aren't those outsourced to some Korean sweatshop anyways?
Yes, and I really don't understand why animation people are against it. Once AI gets really good at tweening I hope we see a 2d animation revival as the boring grunt work can be automated and creators can dedicate more time and resources on other aspects of the project.

The retards complaining are those who either have no actual future, or their future IS tweening, and AI really is going to take der jerbs, because they're so hopeless and talentless that AI is way better already at doing the dumb shit they do.

Amazing they circled one of the most defining features of Chinese dragons and labled it "this part makes no sense & has no clear origin or reason".
Very cultured and artist-like!

As someone mentioned earlier, it probably is AI*, but it's entirely possible someone just drew it like that and didn't do a second take. It's not like gimmicky cans, always feature flawless art.

*I am basing this entirely of the lineart being wonky, in a way that would be hard to accidentally accomplish for a human and there being no lines, between a few of the scales.
 
We've got some terminal cope today with this travesty
The TLDR, for all parts of this:

Part 1: Everyone only makes AI art for money, nobody actually enjoys doing it, so nobody will, once people just start using the AI sites directly, over buying products featuring AI art.

> Yes, this part deboonks itself. If it had no value to anyone, why would people want to generate it themselves.

Part 2: The companies who use AI art will destroy their relationship with all human artists in doing so and will slowly die, because all their products will look the same.

Part 3: There will be a lot of deepfakes during the upcoming presidential election and the hecking government will ban all of AI, because of it.

Part 4: Total Lolsuit Victory happens and bankrupts all of AI.

Epilogue: AI art = ugly and everyone is moving back to drawing already.

Part 5?: AI grifters will all move to video generators and whatever the next trend is and stop generating AI art.

Epilogue 2?: AI art improvement is stagnant.

Social media rant: Compares products designed by AI, to products made by slaves, because it opresses artists - who have become the oppressed digital slaves.

+ Environment rant we all heard already, about servers being cooled by water and powered by electricity.

Part 3 again, except election replaced with gemeral government regulations. Part 1 again, about there being an upcoming price hike in AI art generation services.
