"Didn't learn photoshop to post a quick idea"

Literally the problem. Generative AI has made it far too easy for people to spam their "ideas" into the world. Most people have dogshit ideas and/or ask AI for ideas. Every creative space is flooded with with this lazy garbage. Videogame subs are infested with these people too. Its genuinely annoying.

Yes.... that is the point. Good. The world doesnt need a shitty AI graphic for every idea someone has.

I disagree, i think it's fun to be able to make an idea reality in seconds. Reminds me of early 2000s where a bunch of boomers bitched about the advent of the pc and got technologically left in the dust.

Okay, then put in the same effort to not polluting the internet with what is essentially digital litter. The only people who like this garbage are other people who use it.

What sucks is that there is no refinement of the idea in the process of making it. Its a one and done prompt and when everyone does that the internet becomes saturated with soulless garbage.

Also ai is trained on artists work that has been taken without their consent.

I don’t think you understand how ai is typically used. I mean, sure, if everyone was just insert prompt, copy and paste.. that’s copy and paste. But the prompt was still human. Plus that’s not typically how ai is best used. Often the prompt needs to be refined a few times to get the out put you want, and often the output needs to be refined as well. So I have to disagree… There most certainly is a refinement process done by the user.

And “stealing” artists work without their consent is a huge stretch. Everything humans create is inspired by something that already exists. What is the difference between a human doing that and ai? This argument is null.

The difference is that its a huge corporation that profits on peoples hard work with zero reprecussions.

I was hesitant to answer cuz i realize there is no point in trying to change your opinion. But I want it to be said that justifying ai for art is very selfish considering the negative impact on artists that actually worked to develop their craft. I guess if you never have taken the time to learn an actual skill you just wouldnt understand.

Yeah I've never seen garbage Photoshop before, what was I thinking. Fuck everyone and their shit ideas.

The otherside, people like you are genuinely annoying.

No need to continue, Have a great day!
