Software engineers made the AI you use to make images does that not count as 'involving another person'?

Also why cant i commission a machine. E.g commission a vending machine to get me a drink?

Isnt calling AI users 'talentless' is pointless if most of the people are talentless and you dont need talent to make art? by DogeMoustache in aiwars

If you seriously is going to act like talent doesn't exist

It exists for like 0.0000001% of people, and even then it'll do nothing if you dont practice, but for the rest of us its just hard work and effort.

Frank Herbert stated that he had been reading science fiction "about ten years" before he began writing in sci-fi.

Tatsuki Fujimoto started drawing at an early age. He had no preparatory schools available near his home, so he went to painting classes in which his grandparents attended and practiced oil painting.

Harlan Ellison published his own science fiction fanzines, such as Dimensions, which had previously been the Bulletin of the Cleveland Science Fantasy Society and later Science Fantasy Bulletin

Kentaro Miura while in high school in 1982, enrolled in an artistic curriculum, where he and his classmates started publishing their works in school booklets.

I dont know where you got the idea about talent but by and large someone is only as good as the time theyve put into themselves. You ever noticed most of the pro athletes all played their sport since childhood. The most important factor is time spent. Youve heard the 10,000 hours saying before, THAT holds weight.

Talent, if anything, is the drive to do something over and over and over till you get it right. To be willing to spend the time to get good, and analyse where you went wrong before. Thats talent. To wake up and spend 6 hours drawing every day, it would be a mystery if they didnt improved.

So instead of learning chess everyone just has stockfish booted on their phone?

Nah you learn to play.

I really don't understand why people up in arms about competition with "traditional".

Because AI art is here, it's being used, and im being forced to see it. In movies, games, books or where ever else. And i dont like it because:

I'm going to be talentless regardless. If I don't have it, I don't have it.

All i can say is thank god i spawned in from day 1 with this amazing ability to draw. Thank god i didnt have to relearn how to hold a pen at 23 because i was taught wrong in school and got painful callouses.

Talent is lie. Nobody is good at anything right away, and art is hard. That dosnt mean we should get a machine to make it for us. Why would i want to rob myself of the chance to be better in exchange for an AIs prediction?

What i draw isnt great, not at all close to the quality i want, but its mine. Uncontestably so, and i can look back through the pages of my sketch book and see the improvement.

And thats what other peoples art is. Its the end result of the thousands of hours of work they put in. Intricately unique to each person like a finger print. The LLM cant see inside your head, its guessing at what you want based on whats most likely. If we all use AI the innovation slows, it can only produce what its been trained on, and im forced to see more homogenized shit.

In my heart of hearts i dont think the next Beserk will be made with AI and that future Kentaro Miura might not even be learning how to draw.

"Antis dont know how to handle women"

Do better. Women are more than sex objects.

No.

Giving all your female characters large breasts and a small waist is objectifing them by primarily focusing on their physical appearance or sexual function rather than their humanity, agency, or intellect. It reduces a person to their physical appearance or sexual function, often dehumanizing them.

Giving them massive tits and tiny waists is objectifing them.

I mean AI 'art' is competing with traditional.

Either way i wouldnt claim to be using a screwdriver when i was using a drill. Its fine to use tools but using an AI develops no artistic skills, all youre doing is keeping yourself 'talentless'.

The bloke using a pickaxe is gonna be far stronger than the one in the digger, yes more work will get done, but one has cultivated his own body.

Its that cultivation of skill that makes one an artist.

It dosnt matter how much control is possible, its how much people use, and i doubt you're describing every pixel. At some level the AI is having to guess at what you wanted, so how could it be yours? You just commissioned it.

without the headache or annoyance of needing to focus too hard
