Thank you for posting this. I am in the group of artists that feel threatened by AI, and their opinions are totally valid. But it is nice to hear someone talk about the benefits of AI, and I liked listening to your perspective on it. I think that an artist can get so much more work done with having access to references that help them make their idea a reality. I for one am someone who cannot produce drawings just from my imagination. I can see the idea in my head, but to translate it to paper I need to have a reference to look at to get the details, perspective and lighting correct. When I try to draw together an image with subpar reference it takes so long to the point I get frustrated and move on to something else. So AI is good for getting close to the reference you need, but you still need to put your own creative human perspective into the final piece.
This is quite disappointing. I don't care to use AI for art. Why can't artists try creating their own references? Instead of purely living on Pinterest/google image search and now using AI, you can photograph yourself or a friend/family member in the pose you want to paint and use simple costumes, lighting and props to get the poses you need. Then you can use the internet and books for further accurate research as you need. AI lives off of the backs of stolen art and images from other artists. As well it uses an enormous amount of energy and is awful for the environment. AND it's trained by underpaid and overworked people in poorer countries. Generative AI is gross.
Great video, great use of it!
I think its very good that you are open about it, because there are allot of artists who claim that they came up with the copied AI images! But I have to say its sad to see the excitement of removing the thing that makes art human. Also lots of ethical and morale problems with AI generating images.
Youre just lazy
As an artist I love giving AI example of my art and asking to copy or create something similar. I have AI create art from scratch and I give it drawings to paint. I also give it really specific ideas and instructions to follow and I have I revise some times. Google photos will search the world for simular works to give you an idea of how unique or mainstream your work is. Ai and I We do projects together. Where it influences me the most is as a model to try to do as well as. I’m not a real good water color painter but it inspires me to try to do it as well as it does with out the humility of honoring some none deserving human. Get the idea? You will learn of its limitations but they won’t be what you expect exactly. Kind of like working with a person.
AI is doing paintings! – A friend, AI SmythOS, will help you generate creative ideas, form catchy slogans, and write song lyrics. #AI #Creativity #SmythOS
It can if you can't draw, paint etc.
It’s decline of art if artist doesn’t use reality as tool for practice and creation. By reality I don’t mean photograph.
I will never buy your art. Its not yours
Thanks for this video, i believe ai can be incorporated in the artist day to day life to ease the creative process. Imagine how helpful would ai be if well used in a mangaka’s life? One could tell their story without having to put too much efforts in the visual process. What are you guys thoughts about how ai can improve art?
The thing that will not sit well with me is the fact that using this tool, after entering the prompts, one just has to wait and be fed options for the composition and colors, etc. Yes, you are able to choose and develop the images but at that point, is AI following you or are you following AI?
For those of you panicking about industry jobs… Listen we all knew whatever company we work for, they would love to replace us with a machine at a moment's notice. Artists are annoying for business-types to work with. Business types are hard for artists to work with. But, we have several advantages that they don't. Taste, originality, and passion. We can make this work in our favor! Here's my idea: we independent artists use AI to streamline our processes to make our dream projects. We get together with other artists and make amazing independent games, comics, films, shows, etc that make the corporate slop, (especially the AI gen stuff after they lay us all off), look like the garbo it is. We augment the skills we don't quite have with AI, up our production values closer to AAA titles and out-comptete them by giving people the meaningful art they deserve, instead of the widely appealing and dull works that come from the current nearly-monopolized entertainment industries.
Every artist I know has a big, pie-in-the-sky idea they hold onto, a story they want to tell if only they had the time to do all the tedious asset creation, learn a bunch of new skills, etc. My hope is that AI will help enough of us realize those visions that people develop a taste for independent art. With AI helping us, maybe we can make it fast enough to satiate the market AND keep our time investment low enough to be able to make it affordable for people.
This is NOT fine art. It is only design and NOT to be confused with fine art skill.
Your Egyptian goddess is incredibly beautiful. It's impossible not to fall in love.
My art teacher does this. She generate images we can use for references. I think it is cool. Sad how people abuse it.
Still you do not painted is A.i painted but you😂😂 nothing like hand work art that's we call artists. Just like marathon people running and you take bicycle rides instead running 🏃♀️
There is so much fear about AI replacing Artists and people in general. Why chose to live in fear or limit yourself? I'm an Amatuer Artist at best, but if you could use AI either for inspiration or refining your own Art, I don't see what the problem is. Its almost like an Artist saying I don't like Photoshop because it uses all sorts of tools to improve my Art. It makes absolutely no sense…
Finally, and artist that uses technology as an advantage instead of complaining and playing victim. AI is here to stay like it or not, so we might as well use it to improve. Adapt or die
I've always dreamed of having enough money to buy original art. AI art is easily created but lacks the carved out richness of real materials like paint, pastel, charcoal… Whatever. In my opinion, AI will never take over unless they create machines that can actually use material to 'paint' images. But as a reference tool… AI is amazing! I can throw in a few words…. Landscape, blue, sunrise…. And get hundreds of different users AI created artwork. In the end I have to apply the paint and the colors and the shadows and textures the way I want them but finding the right reference is no longer time consuming.
I used AVAkuma to create my OCs ideas. Now i can use AI to improve on my idea, and improve my idea based on whatever the AI has created. Im so glad to see an artist utilized AI to their advantage and didn't stop creating. You're also a skilled artist, i am happy to see that im not alone. I actually used AI to improve my art to see what i can improve on, because if i Don have social media, i don't have anyone to give me critiques. I used to use pinterest, but the amount of references i use are limited. AI is a really good tool to help the artist! I really encourage using AI to generate ideas and help artists. If used properly, any tool can become a good tool
AI is cool for filling in with props. Saves a LOT of time. I think you have THE idea!
Text it in, print it up and master it with paints and brush/knives on canvas, linen, etc. !
Definitely a TOOL for true painting artists!
I’m so excited to explore this in my art.
I find this very interesting, because often I'll look for references of a VERY specific thing and can't find anything close. Alternatively, I need a reference for something that literally doesn't exist yet. I came to a similar conclusion that ai can help in those situations where reality and photobanks just don't quite cut it. And just like with reality, we can iterate as much as we want on the source image.
I’m a traditional artist too, but I’m really bad at proportions, I’ve been painting for 40 years, so have practices plenty and just get stuck very often and usually give up. I now use ai for reference as well! It’s a very useful tool. Great video. ❤️🇦🇺
I'M TOTALLY AGAINST THESE MONSTERS USING THEIR ART TALENTS TO TAKE JOBS AWAY FROM MOVIE ARTISTS BECAUSE OF CEO GREED. BUT I THINK RESTORING RARE ART LIKE IN EGYPTIAN WALLS WHERE NO HUMAN CAN RESTORE THEM COULD BE OF USE??
I don't think that this is a right way to improve. the difficulty of assembling a painting finding inspiration in references is what makes your creativity work. the reference created by AI are already perfect they are created assembling all your ideas in a single image. cons are really more then pros for me
This is really inspiring. I love that you’re actually a skilled artist looking for inspiration and not just using a cheap trick to avoid doing art.
Ok you’ve shown me here how as artists we can take back control which otherwise feels like a potential threat to artists .
I think it would be better if this tech can be improved to where it doesn’t need to skim the internet for copyright work. I think that’s the slippery slope.
This i think is ok as long as its not using other artists work to generste imsges that look like their style or work and if you csn combine ideas from the various reference images to produce work that’s still in keeping with your own style and people still see your hand at work on your canvas is important too.
