But people were bad at assessing whether images were made by artificial intelligence or an artist.

As someone been in the field a long time before tha AI boom, just trust me. It's knee jerk. They have no good reason to hate generative art, even the idiotic way they fed copyrighted work into some models does not explain in the least why anyone should hate an entire way of making art

i pretty much explained it so, ok...

[–] KeenFlame@feddit.nu -2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

No you did not and have a very limited view of what generative art is.

Do you realise that in the eighties when the first generative artists arrived it was without this knee jerk shit, and studied just as much as the other art

In whatever case you may not decide what is art and not, nor pretend that it only seems sudden. It is sudden. Hatred for no good reason, just because it's popular opinion. It will very soon feel really foolish to have such a stance because some of the big companies are disrespectful. It is just an art form. Nothing worth hate about it

yeah, you're not making art if you tell AI to draw you a pretty picture... neither is the ai...
get over it

[–] KeenFlame@feddit.nu -1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Anything someone calls art is art. If they only shit, it's art. It's important you understand this.

It's valid for you to say "I don't care for AI art and think it's cheap" which, I also agree with, however, what you are engaged in is harmful aggressive rhetoric.

And no. Generative art is not telling ai to draw. You are delusional and blinded by rage.

Stop being a child, as soon as possible.

ok, your mom is art then...

Anything someone calls art is art.

and you're extremely wrong to say it's not " valid" to say that...
