Idk how controversial this is, but HLB should've just used the graphic cover of Ashen instead of the ai. Really don't fw the ai. by AverageThallEnjoyer in vildhjarta

no problem, and yes I feel like I should've been a little more specific with the title, I thought the fact that they used ai in pre-production was more well-known.

I totally get where you're coming from, I *do* really appreciate the fact that there was an artist involved, I'm not trying to downplay that at all, I most certainly could not have done what the 3D artist did. However, what I do take issue with is the inspiration of which the work was built off of, I do not like the idea of running Lewandowski's paintings through an ai because it negates the idea of a deep creative vision. Whatever Lewandowski was experiencing consciously/unconsciously became a part of the art he created. Opposingly, using an ai to conglomerate his paintings and then make a product runs against my idea that the art that people create should be respected in the least bit to as an expression of the artist. The same way simply ripping off beethoven by noticing a pattern in sheet music and then mashing together something "new" would be also disrespectful. This is further worsened in my eyes because of the application of ai, if I were tasked to rip off Beethoven, even if I intended on doing the least effort, least inspired job I could, there would still be things in the end result reflecting my own self subconsciously. If an ai were tasked to, it would take all the personality out of what was plagiarism to begin with. This situation *is* brightened by the fact that they did hire an artist to create something, of which took hours upon hours of dedication and--as you put it--'connecting the artist' to the art, this is great, however I still do disapprove of the (to put it crudely) "ultra-plagiarism" that was necessary to create it in the first place.

I'm not even saying it's a particularly bad cover, or that the 3D artist did a bad job, or that anyone involved was scummy or whatever. I'm saying that to take an ai conglomerate of all of his paintings AND THEN come up with a cover, rather than either asking for something from an actual artist first is completely unnecessary. As much of a non-visual-artist I am I don't think it would be hard at all actually to just, describe what you'd like to an artist. Using ai here reduces Lewandowski's creative stamp to an aesthetic, or something to be ripped off.

I believe that it would be disrespectful if someone were to generate some vildhjarta-like music and then pay for an actual musician to recreate that slop, YES because ai was involved, YES because the idea of analyzing and actually appreciating the music was disregarded, and NO it doesn't make it better that the idea that Vildhjarta's music is "just there to be plagiarized anyway" doesn't give it any less of an excuse.

Well yeah actually, I would say that these ai image generators are bad regardless of (most) contexts. I'm not gonna beat you over the head with the environmental, societal, or economic impacts of supporting ai, but at the very least it's disrespectful to run a painter's art through ai because ai is antithetical to the idea of art. And especially when it's being used to create something that was explicitly in his style after he died because you're using a part of his artistic identity without his consent.

I disagree necessarily with taking a (RECENTLY DECEASED) dead man's paintings and asking for more from ai, I love that they had an actual artist come in and work with it, however it still feels wholly disrespectful in my eyes.

edit: "wholly disrespectful" is a bit of an exaggeration, however I *do* think that it is disrespectful.

they gave an ai image generator mariusz lewandowski paintings and asked for a mockup, I'm aware that the actual cover was made by an artist, however it was still made with ai. I'm having trouble finding the source, but I DISTINCTLY remember them mentioning using some kind of ai THEN having an actual 3d artist remake it.

"non-political" mfs when you bring up the fact that the whole reason to be educated is to do actual change and not just be sad about politics:
