you fucking moron.
stop regurgitating with that kind of certainty stuff you dont even understand. what do you even know about how AI works to just repeat this statement without a hint of doubt or proof for expertise.
there is a group of people who conceptualize like you did, yes.
but that doesnt mean it is the whole truth. at most it is one possible part of the truth. seriously what do you know about anything to act as if you can pull stuff out your ass without even giving logical reason or examples.
please reevaluate yourself.

The Ai is not a tool/invention that is separable of the images it is being trained on, just as a car is not separable of the motor that is built into it.
no images - no AI.
no motor - no car.
the ai is not the blank programm itself before being trained. the ai is the domesticated form of that program.
yet the car manufacturer has to face legal systems aimed at protecting the work of other real people. people who are only able to provide value to society because a system of rules protects them from being exploited.
---
the car company has to pay the person (or group of people) who owns intellectual property in the form of a motor.
---
and just like that an AI is nothing without these things built into it that are made by other people; images.

reality is messy. sometimes artists should be charged for using ideas of others, yet often enough they arent. that is in cases a sad truth. and in others beneficial to us all. reality is fucking messy.
yet either way a machine relying on work of others as a crucial piece and not paying a fair return is not the same as a person being inspired by something.
after all a machine/object has no rights.
but rights need to be in place as to not allow social entities of unmatchable power to fuck up everyones life without being held responsible for it.

Yes with stable diffusion There are actually some really good models, and you yourself can train models to follow i.e a certain style to get consistent results.

This is useful for shit like icons or banners. I know /gd/ is a slow board but I am surprised that there isn't much talk on this.

Oh god you're a moron. But I'll entertain you.

First, I'm a fucking software developer, so I do know a thing or two about programming an AI. Also work on a company that deals with this kind of shit, although on a different field, not in generating some random 'artwork' - But deep down it's all the same.

How the fuck can you say "no images - no AI". Firstly, educate your fucking self. What we call "AI" nowadays, is just a buzzword for what is actually machine learning. A program where you train it with input to generate a desired output. You can have a motor and not have a car - The motor is the "AI". You feed it fuel and it goes BRR, but without the fuel it's still a fucking motor. That's what the machine learning algorithm does - You write a program that given a number of inputs, spits out a 'prediction' of what the output would look like. These Image generators work just in the same way, you feed it a prompt and it spits out an image. How that works is because it was trained on a model, like other machine learning algorithms - Feed it a data set, that associates each image with a text-based description, and the AI stores in it's memory that the word "duck" can look like the 3 million images of ducks it has stored. So when you tell it to give you an image of a duck, it looks at the "knowledge" of those images, and spits out a "new" duck image.

If I tell an AI do draw a duck, and it samples from 7000 different artists/photographers, should I credit them all on the final image? don't think so, and this is no different from you drawing a fucking duck. You've seen ducks, you've seen pictures and drawings of ducks, so you can probably draw a fucking duck. Are you gonna credit everything you've ever seen?

Your examples are just too fucking stupid and prove you know next to nothing about AI

you saying you'd be concerned with tech makes it even more ridiculous. you should be familiar enough with this stuff to be able and not just suckle on easy to digest headline-concepts.
I don't know how you would argue against anything I wrote in that first part besides of
>NOOOOOOOO

Of course AI is a buzzword. but literally we all know that. you think users of 4chan started using the web like yesterday?

dude. no. the programm we download and use and coloqually refer to as 'AI' (eventhough you understandably dislike the term) is not the raw machine learning algorythm from before training.
arguably the bigger part of work manifested as this 'AI-thing-product' as it runs on my computer lies in logistics and energyconsumption of trainingcenters as well as pure production of training data.
and that training data was taken from people who didn't sell them their property for doing so.
>an AI without training data is useless. just as a car without motor is useless. and with any product the work of people who contribute to its usability HAVE to be compensated.
argue why it would be otherwisse!
Do you really think a person who photographs animals for a living is okay with a corporation stealing his artistic skills for framing a duck in order to kill this same photographer?
a mechanical engineer doesnt have to build each motor in order to own its theoretical value. and it's the same with personal artistic principles which are being stolen just as the textural details of a fucking feather.

The AI is not only drawing A duck. It is drawing all of the components inside a rasterized image, many of which are result of pure human expertise. even if you yourself have no clue about composition, lighting, focus, bokeh or any other abstract principles leading to beautiful images, the machine picks up all of them, without acknowledging how incredibly much time and effort went into creating its sum.
in case of a human doing work and owning a picture you wouldn't say 'this person owns the concept of a duck'. they own the fucking image because it takes expertise, time and effort.
yet as soon as an AI did it you act as if the only thing it does is reproduce a duck, when it actually rips of this whole set of expertise as well.
>>
>>437837
3/3
the AI doesn't invent motors. it builds motors based on property owned by others. The people who were thrown into the training data are obviously being ripped off.

if (as you say) it actually would be no problem at all to teach a computer what a duck is, corps wouldn't have to rely on peoples property.

and I am really curious how you think it would be fair for real existing people with real existing jobs and real existing children should be ripped of like that 'because cool toy that draws my dnd characters'
>>
>>437836
>>437837

Machine learning algo is one thing, training data is another. Yea we use AI for everything and it's easier to just say "it's an AI", even if it's used for the most basic bitch thing like scanning a QR code with your phone. Misuse of terms annoys the fuck out of me, but that's also because literal autism. Anyway.

An "AI" exists without it's training data. That data just makes it work, but the algorithm is there. The training data is nothing without the AI either, so that motor/car example doesn't quite work. You can have a car without a motor and still look at it and "yep, that's a car, it just doesn't go very far".

As for the AI using everyone's knowledge to produce images, that's just the way it is. It sucks for artists that worked hard on developing those skills, and I can sympathise as I was a graphic designer before switching to software dev ( better pay and design clients fucking suck ). Even with basic shit like photoshop neural filters. I spent years learning PS and even did a side gig restoring and colouring old photos. Photoshop does most of it with a single click now, and any 14 year old can do what took me years to achieve. Sucks to be me. In any case AI isn't going to stop just because of some copyrights grey area. I'm making the argument that what an AI does is not much different from learning by yourself, during some years of studying light, composition, framing, anatomy, etc etc, condensed into a neatly packed "training data" package. Humans have that training data as well, it just takes longer to learn and practice vs an actual machine.

>and I am really curious how you think it would be fair for real existing people with real existing jobs and real existing children should be ripped of like that 'because cool toy that draws my dnd characters'

It's not, like most new tech. It wasn't fair for any profession that died because of technology, like when cars appeared, industrial mass production of objects/furniture, digital editing/painting tools, etc. I'm sure there's a shit ton of examples, and in all of them, people losing jobs or seeing their set of skills become nearly obsolete did not stop progress. AI is just the next one in line, and sadly artists are the next to go, for the most part.

It's also a really fucking dangerous path if you ask me. I like AI, I like writing some shit and seeing a cool image pop out, but millions other people are doing the same right now. There's so many AI generated images right now that in a few years time, most of digital images will be AI generated, and that will just lead to a loop of training data, where AIs are being trained on AI generations - original pieces and criativity will be a niche thing, and maybe that's were artists can re-emerge? But then AI will get trained on that as well. Fuck everything I guess and just ride the wave.

>>437855
yo.
crying? did you even read the whole conversation? I am telling some people who are interested why it is indeed theft. these corporations exploit people as workers but do not pay them in return. we are collectively building their product which they will then sell to us and kill our own jobs. this is hardcore legal fraud.

I love using stable diffusion. its an infinite serotonine rush and just incredibly powerful already. yet it is theft. and Id wish this thing in its current state was banned, since a stable society is worth way more.

also what you are saying about just going with it isn't true either. now I am not saying it is false. but to be frank we all can individually decide whether we are shutting our mouths about it or not. I am not disillusioned enough to think me or anyone doing this or that thing would change this or that for good. but after all I at some point of the day have to be able to go to sleep, and at some point in time Ill even die.
And honestly your approach doesn't make either one particularly comfy.
>>
>>437855
a last thought and food for more discussion.
I have a question I do not have a complete answer to.

but why do you think the big players are still waiting a bit?
I would guess it is because they know that the moment they start entering this big scale, legal investigation would immediately multiply. the best reason I came up with yet is that they hope for a moment of maximum disruption and social acceptance. they are trying to fly under the radar. this is a test round many different stakeholders have all kinds of interest in. eventho at the same time I wouldn't necessarily say
>the big players are not even here yet

Google and other big companies have an army of AI/ML engineers and infinite amount of data to train from. SD is one of the biggest practical use case that came out of AI/ML.

>but why do you think the big players are still waiting a bit?
I'm a programmer, I can offer a different perspective on what they are waiting for. I'm neither a graphics designer nor a legal expert, so take this with a grain of salt.
I think they are not only working on the technology but creating a business model to put into effect. Millions of artists worldwide, they can't just let that go to drain. This is not like automating customer support services, because they were mostly low IQ tards, where the biggest business opportunity was to outright kill the market. It is better to charge artists a monthly subscription rather than killing a workforce altogether. It would take a few years to reach there, but I believe that AI and artists can coexist and what I mean by that is to reduce the gap they will create tech that is not as basic as prompt based art like it is right now and won't be as complicated/delayed as drawing something from scratch, but something in the middle and that, I believe, in the end will benefit both: the artist and the art.

why not just trace from photos, cgi or pictures from other "artists" like many of these wannabes do all the time? I see no big difference and nothing really new here. Just another possible method.
>>
so i've been messing with the krita plugin and the workflow is interesting.
you can get fairly granular, but there's always rng.
feels a bit like photobashing or even collaging but the photos you're bashing are being produced on-demand, in context.
it removes a lot of the skill required to integrate new elements in (sometimes you still need to tweak h/s/l or levels).

as with anything you can start to inject skill into this. i'd say that most people using this right now are people with basically no shoop skills or an eye for composition (and they're incredibly lazy). autists will always autist and there's potential here to generate images at scales previously unfeasible due to time and labour constraints.

i'd encourage people to try it even if you have reservations about the whole thing. you have an opportunity to be at the bleeding edge of something that is definitely going to stick around and you have existing skills that will elevate you over the average proompter.
>>
i think the biggest reason this tech will eventually die is

1. like tracing, it fills people with shame. it is literally impossible to be an "ai artist" and get any sort of real fulfillment out of it since it's devoid of any creative process, that is unless youre delusional to the point of clinical level narcicissm. and

2. once the tech gets advanced enough where it can copy signature style, i think at that point even artists whove been on the fence about this issue or just didnt care will start giving a fuck and lastly

3. society has always shunned plagiarists and assholes, and i think the abrasive demanor alot of ai bros display and their persistent harassment of artists (even ones that least deserve it, like actually good twitter artists that are happy making a relatively meager living off their work) will come back to bite them in the ass real hard.

>AI art is devoid of any creative process
Having an idea and forming a concept is the first and most inportant part of the creative process. AI will help with the technical aspect of creating art and make the technical skill mostly worthless. Physical art will hold its value but the technical aspect of digital art is dead. Consequently contemporary artist and ai artist are forced to use their creativity even more then before, not less.
>>
>>439638
having an idea isnt a skill. a movie critic offering suggestions on how to make a movie better (valid or not) isnt the same as being the " better director". no one is "the better director, in theory" or "the better artist, in theory". if you are something only "in theory", then chances are you are essentially nothing. atleast as far as that "skill" you claim to have is concerned. there's a good reason for skill segregation existing, and that is to seperate lazy sacks of shit from people that arent lazy sacks of shit. you dont wanna be called a lazy sack of shit? well dont claim to be an "artist". i'm by no means saying only artists can be great people, but you can lead a fulfilling and meaningful life w/o claiming to be something youre not. to put things more plainly: you arent a "hunter" if all you did was press a button to make the deer drop dead. there's no inherent worth in your lived experiences and they dont "deserve" to be visualized simply by virtue of you having been born. like, get a grip you faggot. you can delude yourself into thinking youre "injecting skill" into it by applying your base level grasp of photoshop to whatever it is youre stealing, but deep down you know that is essentially the same as claiming to be some maths savant because you know all the specific commands you can run on a calculator. and thats what you are. a cuckhold. you are being CRUELLY cuckholded by a calculator and no amount of semantics can change that.

i think its healthier for me to be optimistic about this. alot of the ai people seem to just cant help themselves but be absolute cunts the way they approach the artists theyre training their ai on. i think they are cunty enough that they'll be universally hated at the latest once the tech matures to a point where they start stealing from actually good arists.
>>
>>439643
the tech can be trained by anyone on any art right now for very little money.

look, i'm of the view that within the decade these models will absolutely destroy the bottom and middle of the 2d commercial art market in most of its forms. i believe that these models are ethically dubious at best even if they skirt around existing laws.

however, i've still used them for few dozen hours now and i'm trying to keep up. i would highly recommend you do the same.
this stuff is not going anywhere, because the "productivity gains" afforded by this stuff can't be ignored from an economic standpoint.

eventually someone's going to come into a meeting having done 5x the work you have looking very polished for an early stage and the boss will ask how and they will say "ai" and any ethical concerns will go out the window.

adapt or die. and i don't mean "just use it like any other tool, bro" because that shit is garbage that clowns say. i mean build an entirely new workflow around it.

it sucks, but learn to work with it and do it well.
>>
>>439642
also i think you underestimate people's capacity for feeling intense shame over the realization of their own inadequacies. the people who dont feel shame and continue being mean spirited envious cunts will get bullied so intensely that they'll have no choice but to retreat to some very obscure corner of the internet just like what happened with all the deepfake porn.
>>
>>439644
i would have no issue over training my own art on ai to increase my productivity, but i still wanna be able to create a great piece of draftsmanship from scratch.
>>
>>439646
> but i still wanna be able to create a great piece of draftsmanship from scratch.
i'd encourage you to continue doing that, however, what you want and what may be a viable economically in 5 years may not be the same.
all i'm saying is, just get familiar with what's out there right now and keep up with it. you already have an edge over non-artists.
get set up with krita plugin (the photoshop one is a bit jank right now) and experiment with it for fun.
don't show anyone what you're doing. try making things you'd normally never make. get familiar with the tech and working around the limitations.
but again, don't go in trying to use it like a plugin for your existing work. just explore it for a bit and see where the limits and weaknesses are.
peace.

also i dont think anyone below high academic level draftsmanship should even be eligable for being able to purchase an ai at all. you can call it "gatekeeping" but i have no problem with that. gatekeeping is important actually.

You ever looked at the billboard charts or highest grossing movies. People love derivative garbage that looks like a million bucks, AI art is derivative garbage that looks like million bucks. Basically everything popular is made by formulas and algorithmic thought models, this is just the next logical step where you just cut out the middle man and let a robot do it.
>>
>>439702
This isn't untrue but what also isn't untrue is that the people who are the most alarmist about AI and who white knight for "real artists" as if art itself needs them to survive are also some of the worst offenders when it comes to reflexively shitting on any original art that doesn't rigidly conform to a formula that loosely falls under the banner of what "tradition" dictates is "worthy".
They do it with art and architecture and music; there's nothing wrong with traditional art and music or architecture but there's something intensely wrong with acting like it's superior to all else by default and that the existence of different perspectives and styles is an existential threat to all that is "good", that must be shamed and actively suppressed to save art and artists.
Quality creative works stand on their own merits and don't need some self appointed gatekeeper with the aesthetic sense of a grandma to survive.

tl;dr: ai excels at replicating EXACTLY the kind of art and design that it's detractors pretend is unique and superior PRECISELY because that "traditional" shit they love is formulaic as hell.

Society doesn't give a shit about plagiarists. They only care about products they're used to buying. The only time being an asshole matters is if you have to personally deal with them or they're somehow under the media/gossip spotlight. Most people plagiarize and are assholes.

There are some benchmarks comparing graphic cards if you google 'em. I'm still running it on a laptop 1050 because I'm broke but I usually prompt an X/Y matrix and leave it running while I sleep because it takes my computer 5-10 minutes to generate a 512x512 image.
>>
>>442551
>Society doesn't give a shit about plagiarists.

More importantly, the art world and those in positions of authority within it not only don't give a shit on moral/ethical grounds, they regularly refuse to take action regarding counterfeit art when doing so might call attention to the fact that they fucked up and authenticated it as genuine.

To do so would obviously be a hit to their credibility as professional authorities, but also risks exposing the fact that what they lavish praise on as "special" is so un-special that some unknown schmo can replicate it well enough to fool alleged experts.

That's a huge reason for all the wailing about AI; if all the "human element" and "soul" and approval from gatekeepers *actually* mattered, AI wouldn't be a threat, just as some unknown guy with a bunch of old paper making fake Rembrandt pencil sketches shouldn't be a problem.

And it's not just shady dealers and incompetent curators and authenticators who do it, artists themselves have signed the works of assistants for the easy money going back centuries, and Dali is one of the most counterfeited artist of all time in part because he would sign blank litho paper and sell it directly to forgers behind his legitimate publishers back.

There's a couple of ways,
1: Use img2img and set a low denoising rate so the image doesn't change much except for hair color
2: Use pix2pix plugin (it's basically a better version of img2img that doesn't change anything of the source image except what you want to change) and specify the difference in hair color in the prompt
3:Inpainting, just cover the hair and specify the hair color in the prompt, keep the de-noising strength low so it looks close to the original
4:Use controlnet and set the original image as the source and select "canny" for both prerender and redner options and specify you want the hair color changed in the prompt.

Honestly though it would be a lot easier to change hair color in any digital art program (photoshop, paint.net, gimp) by just selecting the hair and altering the hue of the selected area.

Midjourney is very fun and also quite addictive. Bearing in mind it is only at a very rudimentary stage, I think AI art will have effects on human psychology as drastic as social media and smartphones did.

From just using Midjourney for a little while, its strange how you feel a sense of creative satisfaction whenever it returns an image, even though all you did was type in a few random words and wait a few seconds. It will have the effect of turning every NPC into an "artist" and devaluing the time and effort that goes into genuine human creativity. It also makes you look at things irl and question if they are actually real or not, certain things begin to have an AI "look" to them. Hard to explain.

Art, fashion and music have long been dominated by hipsterish referencing of past eras and aesthetic movements and most young people obsess over nostalgia from times when they were not even born. AI art will fuel this x100 with every Zoomer inserting themself into their very own 80s budget horror movie or whatever.

Perhaps there will be a rise in niche movements where people pay a premium for real human art, similar to people choosing to buy expensive handmade art prints and homewares over mass produced stuff or choosing vinyl over downloads. But all in all, it will fuck artists and especially entry/mid level designers and writers in the long term. Directors will simply sign off and modify the tons of work that intern drones churn out with AI.

It does genuinely feel like one of those technological watershed moments. Yes, right now AI Art and ChatGPT are pretty crude but this is just the very beginning of whats to come.

I'm a professional graphic designer and illustrator. I also did a little bit of motion and 3D. Overall I have pretty wide set of skills and I take commissions in a lot of different fields of design and illustrations, from branding to characters design and animation.

For a few months now I'm trying to "take the pill" and do what AI bros are suggesting but it just doesn't work. AI can generate random-ish pretty images and it might fascinate normies and people without natural talent or imagination(like AI bros) but for me it is completely useless. I see a lot of people who, I assume always wanted to be artists but couldn't, trying to LARP themselves into art and bully everyone else out. It is very strange how AI is the future and how it is officially "over" but yet none of the AI bros can explain to me how exactly do I use AI in my workflow or what "new job" I should consider. I actually was pretty scared at first when AI started to make improvements, but now it seems more and more like a gimmick. So far the only real implementation of AI I saw in art fields are AI porn and some twitter accounts who post anime art but for some reason are really afraid of people who comment that it is AI generated. Oh, and a lot of tiktok accounts with the same issue - post a lot of AI art but very scared every time someone mentions it is AI generated.

So maybe at least here some of the AI bros can explain to me exact steps of how do I use AI in my job? Without mental breakdown if it's possible.

AI stuff is mostly unusable for high-quality work. I had to generate over 400 images to get the exact rock formation I wanted for an image, for example. I use AI to generate compositions and color combinations and textures. The amount of inpainting and img2img you have to do to get something decent it’s insane. It’s great for photographs but for anything relying on clean lines like vector art. Even if you get the image, you cannot even feel satisfied. It’s essentially a stock image that you could have bought before for $1 that now costs $1+ after renting the GPU for two hours to generate all those variations.

Hi anons, I'm wondering if a platform like what I'm thinking of exists:
Ideally something between upwork / an image board. The idea is to allow anons who are good at proompting to make a bit of money by selling their shit to whoever.
- business posts a bounty amount and a description of an image they want (ie a logo, background graphic, art asset etc...)
- anons submit images that satisfy the description
- business chooses their favorite from the submissions within a time-limit, the anon who created the submission receives the bounty

If there's something out there that fulfills the same use-case I'd be interested in knowing about it.

If I made a detailed pencil sketch, for instance, how much control could I have over the output?
>>
>>445257
there are some web services that let you do img2img for free or on a credit system with a few dozen free attempts, for example this is made by the ppl who develop stable diffusion: https://stability.ai/ there are a few similar web services maintained by enthusiasts

However, the images sketches above use ControlNet, which is an extension model that you install (kind of like a browser extension for stable diffusion), I'm not aware of any web services that support it.

It's free and you can install it on your laptop / PC but stable diffusion does require a decent GPU with at least 2GB of vram.


> If I made a detailed pencil sketch, for instance, how much control could I have over the output?
That's up to you. You can choose to have absolute control regarding outlines and let SD fill in the rest, or maybe force it to use 80% of the outlines and come up with the rest. Similarly, you can select parts of the image to follow your sketch 100% and parts to only follow it roughly.

Except it literally and exactly is that, the director is the one who makes the movie, he tells everyone what to do, so basically the prompter of AI is the director and AI is all technical roles that are currently being done by dumb unskilled humans who can't have the intellect to direct.

What idea guys don’t realize is the artist usually has ideas too.
Along with often better ideas due to conceptualizing, thumbnailing, moodboarding and hours of brainstorming instead of a thought process which begins and ends at “what if we combined these two things?”
Commissioner ideas usually are behind lower quality designs in art from my experience, especially their gaudy as fuck OC designs.
>>
>>448787
I work with designers that do pitch decks for commercial work. Typically a studio will have an in house staff art director who will then hire 3-5 freelance designers to come in on a 5 day booking to help build out the deck. Studios are paying to build these pitches out of pocket and many of them never award, so it’s generally a “sunk cost”. Nowadays you’re seeing the in house art director running mid journey to develop the frames for the deck. This is acceptable since it saves these studios who are on super thin margins a ton of cash burn, and if the deck is successful and the commercial pitch awards, there’s always the caveat that the design frames are just for mood and don’t reflect the final product. So for them , AI tools have been a massive success. My design buddies? 70-80 percent of them are out of jobs. Some of these guys have worked with David Fincher, Mark Romanek, Jayz.. and they’re seeing their careers evaporate. It’s beyond naive to assume this isn’t happening.

Because you have better things to do than spend hours dabbling with AI prompts, editing the output, etc. If you're a coffee shop, it's significantly a better idea to pay someone $2000 for graphic design work than spend a week doing it yourself. Business people don't think "This costs $500 it's too much" they think "Will I make more than $500 from the improved design if I pay this guy for the work".
>>
>>450464
This, and the fact that the manual skills related to art and design are not nearly as important as the aesthetic sensibilities and "eye" that valuable artists and designers bring to the table.

It's fabrication vs realization.

Theres all kinds of tools available to anyone to "make" all kinds of things with, but people who try to save money by DIYing things that require aesthetic sensibilities often get a rude awakening about the importance of people who have put in the work to develop that part of the equation.

When inexpensive vinyl plotters first came out people predicted the end of the commercial sign business, same with "desktop publishing"...turns out that you can't just push a button and have a quality product pop out, you have to know what is involved in making a quality sign or book.

Same with AI art; if you have no ideas and no qualifications to judge the output with a critical aesthetic eye, you are just as lost and useless as when you didn't have AI.
>>
>>450468

> if you have no ideas and no qualifications to judge the output with a critical aesthetic eye, you are just as lost and useless as when you didn't have AI.

You just assume final clients value the same things you value.

Look around, beauty is not the priority nowadays.
>>
>>450471
Doesn't matter what the clients value. The marketplace does. Which is competitive. Sure, business can survive without good design but it cannot thrive.

If a good design makes someone whip out their credit card and send you $20/month 10% more likely, do the math.
>>
>>450485

So, in your mind, client is detached from marketplace and good still follows your definition.

In short, no one knows what is worthy apart from you.

It will be entertaining to see AI wiping out self-entitled cunts incapable to adapt for no other reason than hubris. Start designing the banner that you and your friends will show in the rally to ask government some handouts, so you will be 10% more likely to reach your goal.

>>
>>450486
>In short, no one knows what is worthy apart from you.

Nobody said that, it was pointed out that the market decides what it values and that may be very different than what a person who seeks art/design for marketing purposes thinks is best, regardless of how it is created. It may be something different than any individual artist thinks it is too, which is part of why multiple people are often involved in important design projects on the creative side *and* on the client side.

>You just assume final clients value the same things you value.

No, you just assume that what a commercial artist/ designer values can't be the same thing the client values, and that any difference of opinion will always be from the artist valuing aesthetics over practical/ economic considerations, which is retarded and betrays your total unfamiliarity with how that business works.

Which is why you say stupid shit like-

>Look around, beauty is not the priority nowadays.

- as if this is some revelation or new development. Besides steering clients away from ugly shit that will turn customers away, designers also have to talk clients out of going with "beautiful" but ineffective art and design all the time, and this gets back to the original point which is that trying to DIY it without the benefit of someone who has made a study of how things work often just teaches the people doing it that there's far more to it than they imagine, and that they need help.

Good commercial designers/artists are quite adept at putting their personal tastes aside and working towards an effective final product regardless of what its final look or form may be, while still maximizing aesthetics to that end.

All of which explains why good designers/artists don't fear AI and aren't going to be put out of business by clients using it to sidestep them.
>>
>>450486
Unless you're designing someone's personal brand, you're designing for the marketplace and the user.

>In short, no one knows what is worthy apart from you.
You can tell based on engagement rates on social media, Google Analytics, and sales data and insights. There's also other considerations are where the material will be seen (probably don't want a small font on an underground subway advertising or on a billboard), accessibility (color blindness), etc. Sure, the store owner can DIY it, spend a few hundred bucks getting things printed and then paying for the space only to find out (or not find out) if they would have spent $500 they could have 10X'd it.
>>
AI is a massive lie. From where the term comes from (throwaway term made to get funding) to how it's presented to people (a face and name, trying to "humanize" it aka lying) to how people have this awful "it will always get better" fallacy.

TECHNOLOGY DOES NOT ALWAYS "GET BETTER". IT IS VERY LIKELY AI IMAGE GENERATION IS MORE OR LESS AT IT'S PEAK.

Any improvements will be incremental at best and most people will still be able to see AI from a mile away. AI is less efficient than any person with vision anyway. AI replacing anything is a techbro lie and I hate that the GD world has fallen for it. It's a useful tool for artists and nothing more. AI cannot give a project a vision.

That's what designers should be. Instead of selling custom tailored clothes or building tables, you use a computer to get things done. If you want to be an artist, you can, just don't expect to do business.
>>
But if you meant why not just go into starting a coffee shop or running a business-business, I'd say the difference is with design you can take on a variety of fields and projects, you're not tied down, you have full independence, and can pivot into multiple disciplines, versus selling custom clothes which is pretty limited and very much putting all your eggs in one basket.

If Photoshop becomes irrelevant and everything becomes AI, it will be just as easy to get into selling that and being more efficient/productive/creative than anyone else using (all competitive in the attention economy) versus all clothes are now made by robots. It will be designer with AI vs designer with AI as opposed to designer VS AI.

Textile and clothing manufacturing was one of the first industries to be automated in the history of automation.

Yet despite traditional skills like knitting and embroidery being almost completely automated and computerized and new production processes developed that would be impossible to do by hand, there are more jobs in clothing manufacturing than ever before and the ability for an individual to create garments for their own use or to sell has never been easier to attain.

At the same time, traditional skills like tailoring and hand stitching of fine lingerie are still in demand and can pay well for the level of training costs involved.

Textile manufacturing and sewing are a perfect example of how automation just makes more employment possible even as the numbers of traditional jobs involved go down as inefficient production methods are automated.

And then it comes down to simply marketing, which is where design comes in. If everyone has access to produce the goods and market it, if everyone can create designs, how do you stand out? Surely flooding the market with 10,000 t-shirt designs is not going to be it, since a competitor could simply add AI image generation into their t-shirt production website to allow individual users to make their own designs.
>>
>>451485
... but the reality is most people don't want to make decisions. If you give the option to someone to make any shirt they want, they might make a meme or two on the impulse but it's not going to be their main way of dressing themselves. Artists and people who want to express themselves with custom designs? Maybe. but I feel like those people would rather design it themselves already.

If you have 5 t-shirts in store and on a person budget, you're more likely to make a decision than if given 5000 designs to sort through with new ones added every day.

Good thing is AI works cannot be copyrighted, so big businesses cannot rely on it.

The process is more important than technique. Every GREAT artist has a meticulous process that was perfected over the study and development of technique. The idea itself cannot mature, or simply, won't be good, without a good process behind and therefore without a solid grasp of technique.

In other words, it is almost impossible to create significant and inspiring art with AI alone. And it will forever be like so.

Now a proper artist who studied his craft will surely achieve interesting results.
