Maybe that true, but it's kinda funny to see the AI Artbros who gloated over artists being made 'obsolete' from AI are fucking crying over how mean those same artists are when they meme their AI art.
Nah, perhaps for you it is a silly shitshow, but it still shows the lunacy those shitlib twater artists losing their shit easily from the conservative Mormon bait at first sperging out from this faggotry trying to own the chuds like manic shitheads they are.
Just being delusional detractors being envious over instant vidya-tier rendering that could take forever to do manually.
Like this picture, I've seen plenty of Touhou art and this is the first time I can see a picture of someone and immediately remember the author. It's hard to explain. You could say that it isn't the most technically amazing thing you've ever seen but the artstyle and coloring sets it apart.
As the great Terry Davis once said "an idiot admires complexity, a genius admirers simplicity" this quote can absolutely apply towards any artistic vision of optimization, separating between human-readable art some retard with some artistic knowledge could easily understand how to study and be inspired from, and complex polished illustrations loses any hints of readable line stokes, practically becoming cryptic and mysterious.
Some of my favorite Stable-Diffusion assets are the ones that closely resemble simplistic techniques similar to traditional illustrations.
Man, this looks like garbage. If I was an artist and someone showed me this telling that it took them a lot of time to generate it using AI, I'd breathe a sigh of relief.
If some other artist with more dedicated experience does those amplification hybrid techniques while reducing time to compile the image, it would've been a unique motivated situation, but that doesn't stop spergs from going tardrage about it enforced on their narrative mkultra programing. Just endless lunacy, it's like if a group of guitarists are outraging over the use of the amplifier, because they're afraid of transforming their musical efforts into something new.
There are skills involved but what once took 100 hours could end up as 10 hours as UI and tools evolve. Something like ControlNet alone is a massive step towards "getting something 1% as good as you envisioned".
Come back in 2 years and all this software will be much more powerful and easier to use, even if the models themselves don't change much.
It makes me wonder why the lead programmer 'lllyasviel' behind ControlNet hasn't published that V5 Style2Paints yet?
This true Ai-art assistance software could've reduced the amount of seething of artists and they'll have fair game in this modern artificial-brain-cell-tensor chip AI world Uncle Ted would bomb aganist rapidly faster than BLM riots.
That's the real conspiratorial question I'd like to know, because the Controlnet dev restricted top secret access to V5 S2P in his GitHub which also fucks up GitHub browsing every time like a nigger being tasered in area 51.
Maybe 'lllyasviel' really hates helping out artists and wants them to melt the seething boiling pot until the smoke alarm sets off, till they finally release it after years of refinement.
