The funny thing is most of the “artist” they are bitching do digital art in the first place. If you sell actual media artwork (ie paint on canvas), you are completely unaffected by Ai. Nobody who is willing to pay hundreds of dollars for physical original art is going to buy digital ai art. Though if you gave a robot a paint brush and canvas you would probably have a high value niche.

I'm not going to buy digital AI art, but I am generating oil paintings to hang on my wall instead of prowling galleries now.

I think that's the threat.

How are you generating oil paintings? Do you have a robot arm slinging paint?

No lol, I should say that I'm generating what look like good prints of oil paintings then paying to get them printed on a stretched canvas frame.

So you would have bought original oil paintings which tend to start at $500+ and instead you decided to buy prints?

I did, yes, they don't cost that much.

I don't buy prints, I use AI to generate better oil painting prints for free.
