Stable Diffusion, NovelAI, Machine Learning Art - AI art generation discussion and image dump

[Post Reply]

I make one comment about an ai and every chucklefuck under the sun bombards me. remind me to never use the IT board again

How angry were you when the pen and paper were invented?

 

[Turtlebees]

Just installed and opened this up for the first time. Even though it hurts my heart as an artist, Stable Diffusion is my new fav thing.

I am sorry I cannot be assed to try and figure this out myself but can someone do womb wizard? I will give you good boy stickers in return.

Womb Wizard as a prompt combined with Staph's original sigil spat this out on a first go.




I went to text only, added fat satanic druid, and got these:

I feel like this is just going to be used as entertainment for coomers and won't actually be replacing commercial art on a wide scale.
People are still going to commission artists they like and people who like to draw are still going to draw.

Maybe I can use this image to honeytrap fujoshits into reading Teds manifesto
"uwu I wish uncle ted send me bombs~"

He's got a present 4u

There are Hollywood moguls thinking this AI shit is great. Who needs to pay screen writers, actors, film crews, special effects artist, composers and musicians when they can be replaced by robots and computers for less money or for free. Who cares if the final product is mediocre dreck as long as it makes more profit with less hassle without dealing with unions and guilds?

 

[Cabelaz]

This is awesome for just being able to put an idea in and getting a better image than I could ever draw back. Rip amateur artists though!

I really am disliking the animefication of Ted. Pure uncanny shit.

 

[naaaaiiiiillllll!!!]

Who cares if the final product is mediocre dreck

I mean, that's Hollywood's main goal anyway, so this is less of a "who cares" but a major selling point.

This is going to be a gigantic shitshow. I've barely spent a day fucking around with this and I can tell you right now you'll be hearing about this for years.

• Artist outcry about being replaced by a $600 GPU.
• IP concerns in that an artist's style can be trained into a hypernetwork and reproduced instantaneously.
• Government, legislative, nonprofit, and public outcries regarding the triviality of producing near lifelike CSAM.
• Privacy concerns in being able to make passing nude / otherwise offensive or humiliating images of real people.

I'm calling it now, the Information Era is dead and we are now in the Machine Era. Computer information processing is now more important to the direction of society than the general ubiquity of information which defined the information era, just as the WWW redirected the world from the Nuclear Era and the cold war standoff to a global interconnected community.

Governments using ML to memorize faces from public IDs to track people in public (China literally already does this), civil litigation over copyright defemation and nonconsensual pornography, criminal litigation over production

It's happening.

Aka your dad was always right: art school is a big mistake.

I know almost every job will be eventually replaced with AI/robots, but I didn't realize it would be starting so soon.

Ever seen the movie "Simone"?

This soulless machine produced mockery of "art" is a terrible but sadly unsurprising indictment of the modern age. Where's the passion? Where's the soul? If you want real art, that takes human imagination and skill. For example:

No. 5 by Jason Pollock

And my personal favourite:

Bridge by Robert Ryan. This pinnacle of human achievement is valued at 20.6 million dollars. On a completely unrelated note, you can buy a blank canvas for about 15 quid.

Could a soulless machine produce artworks of such profound beauty? I think not. A monkey randomly applying paint to a canvas might however.

I've heard that Jackson Pollack was just fucking with people and they fell for it. Not sure if it's true. But I always hear stuff like "it's the way he layered the paint blah blah blargh". Yeah well, leave any toddler alone with some paint tubes and you'll get the same result.

Anyway, I can only use the various apps because I can't into modern GPU.

No tears.

Some of the results for inpainting are truly breathtaking.

I for one can't wait until this shit starts replacing this globohomo alegra type shit you see plaguing any and all corporate art. It'd still be soulless but at least I wouldn't feel like I'm being treated like a fucking child everytime I see it.

 

[2138_1255]

I really don't understand why you're in such a hurry to put people out of work.

Your job is next.

You forgot a major one.

Framing people for crimes.

"Framing people for crimes" will the first (and most widespread) use.

 

[Kaktus Kompot]

While these developments present some disturbing predictions about not just the art, but all the information we consume, I believe that ultimately the technology is rather limited and there will always be a group of auteurs creating high-quality art just for the sake of creating it. But commissions and corporate illustrations? Yeah, these guys will have to look for a new job pretty soon.
Pesonally, I'm not too worried about AI art since I prefer traditional pencil on paper medium, and when the machines learn to replicate that, the humanity will have to deal with way bigger problems than soulless illustrations.

I think you're gonna see more of it.

Just learned that my ~8 year old Alienware meme machine laptop has barely enough power (Nvidia GTX 970M, 3 GB VRAM) to run this. I may download stable diffusion and set this up before it's made illegal or something. Also, when I eventually upgrade, I have something for my old laptop to do (sort of).

This could be the start of a new and interesting hobby...

Is a 970 really worth fucking around with this, I have a 970. how long does it take to generate pictures on older cards?

I really don't understand why you're in such a hurry to put people out of work.

Automation has been putting people out of work for over a century at this point. The stock line we are eternally fed is "We have automation that will free you from the toil that you currently need to do, that will allow you to do more productive things". Never mind that is how you were putting food on the table, and doing the more productive things will involve a year at least of retraining and starting back at the bottom of the career totem pole.

No one cares much when its Kiosks at grocery stores, or that automated cars and trucking is coming down the line. Those are going to be vastly larger issues when it comes to employment. Can't help but enjoy the schadenfreude from the creative classes now that they are getting it in the same way that their lessers did. I have very little sympathy that automation just now is suddenly a problem
