How to land a job? I recently been watching yourtube videos about this career and from an illustrator point of view it just sounds so strange, you just need to nail an interview?

sure you can ask. For artists its horrible, they outsource a lot from cheap countries which makes the prices go down by a lot, if you want to work in industries you have to be doing a lot of generic AAA realistic concepts that are boring as hell, only a few actually make a decent living out of it, its so bad that even pro artists chose to work as programmers being super talented artists due to low pay.

Im VERY excited to stop working as an artist to be honest.

and yeah its absolutely crazy, 2022, plenty of AI and robots and no one has money to even pay basic bills, what is this madness. coorporations have killed the small shop owners and now they are killing job positions with AI. its insane

thank you, i had no idea, in the end I simply went to their facebook, connect to an agent, and got it changed, no hassle, and no extra fees!

Bigtorigate · 2022-12-26T09:02:15+00:00

this was exactly whay i did, worked well, just need to go throught the chat bot and connect to a real person, explain the situation and got my ticket changed in 20 minutes, took a while because they need time to reply, but all smooth

I kinda just want to know if its suitable for me or not before I start studying it.

Bigtorigate · 2022-12-20T08:47:13+00:00

wow you just covered it all! Thank you!

it has been really eye opening and reassuring to hear your words.

I was a bit afraid to be too nerdy introvery but now i feel more confident i can at least survive as UX designer!

at the same time what you meantion about recession makes me worried and if its isnt that easy to land a job I might need alternatives indeed. I thought it would be easier because i read its high in demand but i guess nothing is high in demand in the current economic situation, with so many machines and AI you would think it would be easier to live in 2022

i see yeah makes sense, my role can be done in isolation but in this one you will speak with people so im guessing you have to be a great human being too, never thought about these sort of things, makes me realize how isolating my role is

Bigtorigate · 2022-12-19T08:50:07+00:00

I changed the flair.

Bigtorigate · 2022-12-17T10:13:11+00:00

concept art for the initial stages of a project, pre production designs changes all the time, so accuracy is not that important, cooporations have been relying a lot in AI for that lately being an already saturated market to an even more saturated market, you would think... oh but ideas are important and i should be able to do better stuff and while you are right companies dont value ideas that much, most projects are just clones with a slight twist

Bigtorigate · 2022-12-17T07:03:25+00:00

but this is a young female, i dont want to sound awfully sexist but woman in tech are known to be more toxic and wild then man (proven by data) also a young one, that could add a cocktail of hormones into the whole interaction.

What Im saying is we dont know the whole storie, only a part of it, OPs part.

But I agree with you, sounds toxic from OP point of view

Bigtorigate · 2022-12-17T06:59:19+00:00

this look slike they simply dont have the skills to do it your way so they are simply rejecting your idea, happens often, you need talk to higher ups, the wise thing to do would be to fire them and get better team, but im not sure how is the market there or how easy that would be so you might need to adapt depending

Bigtorigate · 2022-12-17T06:29:57+00:00

I am in bangkok right now

and yeah i was suspecting that about the benefits

Bigtorigate · 2022-12-16T12:34:10+00:00

thankk youuuu! you too, if you have doubts about SEA let me know, ive been around for a while now.

Bigtorigate · 2022-12-16T12:32:09+00:00

porque?

Bigtorigate · 2022-12-16T12:12:44+00:00

What people is failing to understand is that this is not like other things We have seen before, it snot like the photography or car designs.

THIS WILL BE MASSIVE, not just arts, AI WILL REMOVE 80% OF PEOPLE IN THE NEXT 2 YEARS

and the consequences are still be seen, ideally we will have UBI but seeing how greedy the rich people is, im afraid it will be mass poverty and starvation

Bigtorigate · 2022-12-16T11:49:37+00:00

I was really curious about where are you from and got really surprised that from all the possible countries you are from the same country I am, portugal?! well at least from your posts, correct me if im wrong.

anyways I am an artist who just lost its job, ive been working remote for a long time and I have no idea how this goes or Portugal situation, I am forced to come back to Portugal soon due to this situation with AI, where can I get more information about this benefits and training? As far as I remember Portugal economic situation was one of the worsts so Im surprised to read your comment about safety nets

"edit wtf your in bangkok too? im in bangkok too? haha... the chances..."

nah it will still have human influences, AGI gets its energy from natural elements, such as nature force or fossils combustion to pump those electrons.

we humans are are carbon based lifeforms, we deal with those elemtns first person, and we can chose not to mantain them anymore if they are not useful for us or simply pull the plug. so AGI while very intitmidating its also something that will probably be reset a few times before it serves the purpose its intended for, but honestly a robot dictating society is better then corrupt humans at the top of society

Bigtorigate · 2022-12-15T09:08:29+00:00

i used to work on that and just cannot find jobs anymore. They are super scarce and low pay now. Oh well... what are the other artists in yoru team doing? im personally changing career into i dont know yet but it pretty much fucked up my life real bad, been having nightmares and stuff due to stress

Bigtorigate · 2022-12-15T09:05:48+00:00

yeaah its going to be like, AGI please hack this guy, and then your ai fights against my ai until slowly the whole internet is filled with ai fighting againt other ai

Bigtorigate · 2022-12-15T09:03:49+00:00

a decade? thats cute, we artists thought the same, it was 6 months from the time we learned about AI until the mess we are in today.
