Calling AI generated pictures "art" is insulting to most artists. I agree though, all this hype is driven by short-sighted capitalism

It's good enough that people won't hire artists to do their art. Are you a corporate suit who needs mock ups of a certain idea or product? Have an unpaid intern spend 5 hours prompting Sora AI to produce hundreds of, and sort down to 5, images that you can use on your post-golf lunch meeting tomorrow afternoon

and you somehow don't think having slaves/unpaid interns in your story is the real problem?!

I think you might have missed that my entire post was a criticism of that industry.

It's one of many problems.

Similar to the discussion on forgery being art or not? (for example)

If it's not art then what are artists afraid of?

You seriously think people wouldn’t do for free what others require pay for under any other socio-economic society?

Oh, right…. Capitalism is to be blamed for…. Everthing ever.

Don’t get me wrong. Capitalism sucks, but let’s not dilute the water.

A place for all those who loathe machine-learning to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
