AI Art Seething General

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
It pisses me off when people at work show me something they made with ai. It's always someone borderline retarded showing me their little fictional world and roleplay profiles they made for all their imaginary friends. Just slop junk. Looks like crap too. You can always tell.
I also love how half the anti ai arguments are fucking nog tier "but i did eat breakfast today though". Yea congrats you have discovered that most conversations with coworkers is just meaningless slop. That's kinda how it works, if you had good and meaningful conversations with them then you would be calling them your friends not coworkers. Would you prefer them to go back to talking about the weather and other meaningless slop? People do things they think are cool and are proud of and want to share those things, unless you are clinically autistic then the normal response is to just go yea that's cool and leave it at that if you don't care. These people just want to show you something they enjoy, they're probably thinking the same thing about things you say to them too. They're literally just trying to start a conversation, if it wasn't with something they made with ai then it'd be about the weather or some whore they know that's pregnant or some office drama. Getting annoyed at people trying to make conversation with you is genuinely autistic.

I get how you feel, my mother does the same, takes two seconds to say 'that's cute' and leave it at that. You're just wasting your energy if that actually pisses you off.
 
Posted this a few times elsewhere on the site and seen it posted around but this video perfectly demonstrates how AI is going to find its way into professional workflows and just become a normal part of artistry in the future (Shocking, I know.)
What I realized about most anti-AI people is that they know literally nothing about AI. They think the only things you can do with AI is go onto some cloud service, ask it for something, and get a completed image that looks like every other shitty 'realistic' anime artstyle or slightly oversaturated live action image. The idea of local generation confuses them, things as basic as inpainting are totally alien to them, and AI still can't make fingers right. (Even though this hasn't been a problem for well over a year or two now.)

Thing is, AI can never make up for a lack of creativity. These creatives (granted, most of these fanatical anti-AI artists aren't creatives themselves) can never be replaced because they have the know how to establish the emotional connection with the audience necessary to make a piece of art engaging.
These people are actual fanatics, though. They aren't just unwilling to listen to reason or the blatant truth that we're not going to walk back the greatest technological advancement of the 21st century just for them, they outright do not care. It was never in good faith, never about being 'right'. Literal fanaticism over fucking AI generated pictures.
 
takes one second to say "that's tarded"
And you're still a sperg for dissing your co-workers for showing interest in something while you blow them off as being beneath you, so you come here to post about it expected to get stickies and praise(??) on the AI thread about anti-AI spergs.
You're not winning any support if it needs to be spelled out for you.

*Dissing my coworkers for showing interest in basically eating their own boogers

Sorry I didn't know this was actually the ai fan club thread. I made a mistake. Seemed simple from the title. Now I know.

Did you read any of the posts in this thread? Do you read any posts in any thread?

There's been countless people come into this thread and say they hate AI. Those people were listened to and more often than not agreed with. You were not because you came in and sperged about how you're too autistic to deal with basic social interaction. This isn't an AI glazing thread, that doesn't mean that this isn't kf, people will still call you retarded if you are being so.
 
It's always telling when people change their opinion to the polar opposite after they found out who made it. They can't admit to anything that would mean that AI in 5% of cases doesn't produce slop, no, it has to be in 100% of cases totally garbage, otherwise they'd have to admit that their side is flawed and not 100% right with everything. Either total victory for their stupid camp they side with or nothing, but certainly not a non-absolute position, and it's such an infantile thinking really.
Thing is, it's not that "AI in 5% of cases doesn't produce slop," it's that a real person with an interesting idea and the perseverance not to accept a slop result put a little bit of effort in to get something specific and good from AI.

You can get lucky and 5% of the time get something amazing with a nothing prompt like "cool wizard casting dope-ass spells," but most of the time when you see something good made with AI, it's because a person with a vision was behind it.

AI was used in the making of this insanely disturbing video.

I mean it's just like everything else, you get out what you put in. AI doesn't produce slop 5% or 95% of the time. It produces 0% slop if you give a shit and 100% if you don't. It's a bit like looking at corpo memphis slop and saying that all artists produce that because you cannot have any variation in how much someone cares or their intentions, every single person in a niche acts the exact same as everyone else in there with them.

But fucking hell man I love cloudflare so much, I really love that the government here has basically banned the entire internet and even just to access civitai I have to sit here f5ing through tor exit nodes to find one that isn't fucking blocked. Not quite sure how this stops all the immigrants raping children but oh well.

This couldn’t sound gayer but that’s the beauty of art at the end of it. Human effort + intent makes it what it is, be it through experience or dedication, which fuels exp.
If you shat something together in 5 min through Midjourney, we can tell.
If used one hand to goon while drawing furry commissions by hand, we can tell also

Well, maybe.

This discussion stemmed from that viral tweet of a game mockup, apparently done with Midjourney video. I really don't know the guy's process, maybe it was his fifth try just writing something simple like "retro Daggerfall motion aesthetic, walking down a long path from a forest through a small medieval town toward an epic dark castle in the far distance, 1080p hi res pixel art trending on pixeljoint best quality."

But there's also the curation aspect, recognizing that this is something really cool that needs to be shared with others. Same as someone taking casual photos who recognizes "holy shit from this angle it looks like my dog is shooting flames from its mouth, this has meme potential."

I'm not really a defender of AI art, more indifferent (though I'll pretend to be super pro-AI when artists acquaintance who barely produce shit and spend their day playing games and gooning seeth on the internet about it).

Having said that, that ghibli shit was fun as fuck when I was trying to produce my Joe Redifer avatar and had to get specific to try and match my old irl image.

You’re right, I didn’t consider that. But I also think with AI, the less effort or thought really put into it, the more the end result would only be praised for the machine, not for the person ‘’’responsible’’’ for the output. I don’t think anyone would hire you for their wedding photos for a pic where your dog’s the star, you just happen to have had a camera on hand.
Why I made that point is because I do know some Ai ‘’artists’’’ that genuinely, through layers of editing, created their own aesthetic and style based on AI images. One which can be learnt from despite ‘ooOooOoo numbah machine bad’

Oh can you show me something that looks good that comes from ai? I've only ever seen tasteless dogshit but I'm open to changing my mind if you have anything you're really proud of or something you think looks really good!
