    Reminder: Your stick figure doodles during math class are worth more than the most gorgeous thing AI has spat out.

      The most gorgeous thing AI has spat out is images in a shiny/glowy artstyle that at this point everyone knows is AI, with almost-faces that give the uncanny valley vibes, and backgrouds or text that barely makes any sense because the AI has no sense of reality and allucinates shit.

        I mean if you want to stick your head in the sand and lie to yourself, then sure.

        Look at a few of the recent top images in [email protected] and try to tell me that many of them don’t look good. I’m sorry, but you are fucking delusional if you can’t even admit that some AI models can, in fact, make impressively good looking images.

        If you want to argue the morals of AI art, then yes, let’s have that conversation. But to try and dismiss all of it by saying it doesn’t even look good is just pathetic and willfully ignorant of reality. You want so desperately to believe that AI could never create something that looks good that you have deluded yourself into ignoring the truth.

        The technology is growing, and it will leave you behind.

        Like, fuck, man; am I just supposed to pretend like this isn’t beautiful?

        Or that this isn’t cute and funny?

        Am I not allowed to look at things like this and acknowledge that it’s far better than anything I could produce without dedicating decades of my life to the pursuit of art?

          Look at this

          And tell me how it looks good. Not the pic itself, but the artstyle. It’s still has traces of that shiny shitty AI artstyle.

          Y’all treat AI as the fucking holy grail of technology. At one point, everything will be plagued by the cheap, shitty version of the AI images, and the better models will be trained on that instead of actual art, and then these cutting-edge models will be just another shitty image generator because it got more shitty AI images than art fed into it.

          The main fucking problem with AI’s quality is that most people aren’t using these high-quality models, most people are using the first thing that they find. And since the people who know about the hugh-quality one are a minority, the internet will be plagued with low-quality, soulless art.

              The two first you linked had very notable AI artstyle (specially the second), but that last one was way better. Yet, not the models or efforts the average netizen will use to get AI images, so internet will get plagued with the bad quality ones with uncanny valleys and errors everywhere.

                Lmao, try to make the same argument for anything else. “I don’t want people to paint. Most are seriously bad at it and I don’t want my feeds filled with their ugly artwork. Ive already seen that style anyways.”

                You don’t even know why you don’t like it, you’re just doing what you’ve been told to do. Jfc.
