Nothing wrong with that. Lots of art sites feature AI-generated pieces, and just like anything else, thereās good and bad.
What matters is tagging it as AI, not pretending itās something else. At the end of the day, itās all about the idea. As players, we just want to be entertained.
Over the years, Iāve commissioned a lot of game art from different artists for my profile pics, but this will definitely help make the videos more appealingāboth for new players checking out the game and for those already enjoying it.
Itās just stolen regurgitated crap. Nothing about it is good and honestly if I knew earlier that the devs used AI to get ideas, I wouldnāt have invested as much mon*y into the game. It shouldāve been obvious with the āwaifuā slop that it was getting bad and if you think the gaming industry could become boring and uninspiring, just watch in a few years, everything will be the same boring garbage. The death of art is upon us.
Your arts are very good and special and cannot be replaced. Actually, Ive inspired by many of your designs and arts, as well as other playersā. AI is only a tool, it does not make a person an instant artist, just like Copilot does not make me an engineer.
Also, I need to edit many AI-generated images by hand. They dont come ready to use lol There are still some obvious flaws.
Honestly, human artists spend years learning to do art āin the style ofā and almost everything they learn is literally from the art out there which exists. They replicate what theyāve learned from others, adding their own touches. AI is doing literally the same as what they are.
Whatās more, AI is bad at specific details and if you want a really good piece of art you need an actual artist who can finish it nicely for you. For that, or for a unique/new style youāll need an actual artist. So itās not like artists are made redundant by this tool.
What AI is excellent for is backdrops and quickly getting a vision into something real. Thatās a really useful tool to use.
I appreciate the passion for artists. Iāve always loved art. But on some level I hope you see how technological progress is a good thing and industries adapt. Iām sure you can speak to many people who have reached retirement and theyāll say that the roles in their industry changed a lot over the years they were in it. The art industry is sadly one of those where too many people want to do it for the amount of work out there and the work is often underpaid. Itās never been an excellent choice to get into.
Iām cool with new technology. Iām a big fan of progressivisim actually both socially and other ways but the problem comes from it being used for wrong ways that will hurt the masses because there isnāt enough, if any, regulation for it to not be abused. AI āartā where you just put in a prompt should not be in fanarts. There should be another thread for people who wanna post AI āfanartsā for people who likes those and can be muted for those who donāt wanna see low effort and ugly stolen art.
ChatGPT trained its image generation unethically too so I will not act like things are okay and suddenly be okay with it.
Also itās coming for everyoneās jobs. Especially the ones who love promoting it
I also have a few vacation weeks soon and i canāt decide what sketch should I finish. So feel free to choose one of the options and the most popular is the one Iām doing (also, comment Kanna ships)
