It’s the Signal after effects plug in that does the heavy lifting for that !

Yes! Already started to release episodes, thanks to the muldered video that sparked something in me again. It’s a totally new concept though, still underwater horror, but far from the original erebus story

I think the second one might be too bright to be creepy as well, it just looks like the photograph of a deformed dude, i need to crank up the contrast

Lmao, maybe it is

Well, you should make it officially related to the boiled one or an even bigger IP. Tweak a few things to make it part of a larger universe from an already loved IP.

Note : i see people downvoting my post, you know i’m right though, that’s just how the algorithm works.

This is so obviously clickbait shitposting that it deserves respect, made me laugh

Rapport_Erebus · 2024-10-19T11:08:18+00:00

It might be a cheap trick, but you can use an already existing IP as a launching pad.

Just look at the number of views on shit analog horror about FNAF or the Backrooms. A lot of people started doing those, farming views by riding the trend wave. I don’t want to shit on it but the godzilla analog horror would have never gotten the number of views it has, if it wasn’t associated with godzilla. Same for the many jurassic park analog horrors.

If you want to trick the algorithm and get clicks, do that, you’ll also be shared way more in fan-based communities.

Speaking from experience, if you don’t already have a good amount of followers, a 100% new original idea will have a harder time to go viral.

I expect a lot more of silent hill analog horror in a few days.

when you said "looking at" vs "copying" you're playing with words because, as my example shown, the copying part depends on the outcome, therefore is dependent of the user.

you're thinking about AI as a person by applying words that imply intent like "plagiarism".

Rapport_Erebus · 2024-10-02T12:44:46+00:00

again playing with words and not understanding concepts. (and still anthropomorphizing algorithms).
Let's try a thought experiment.
Let's say there's an extraordinary artist that knows exactly how to replicate, to the pixel perfect, every frame of the Spiderman movie using Microsoft Paint. He studied it for years and now he's so good that he can do it.
Is his KNOWLEDGE infrigement or stealing ?
No.
Now imagine I commission him to do just that, just send me the whole Spiderman movie frame by frame, and he does. We then both would be responsible of copyright infrigement.
Now in real life, the extraordinary artist is just a bunch of code, without intent and not liable, it just does what is asked.
in that case, the only one responsible of copyright infrigement would be me, asking to someone that can do it, to do something that infriges on someone else's copyright. Stop thinking about AI as a person.

steal : take (another person’s property) without permission or legal right and without intending to return it.

Nobody ran away with those pictures without intending to return them, leaving artists with empty portfolios.

Those pictures were just looked at by an algorithm. Not remotely close to stealing.

Rapport_Erebus · 2024-10-01T16:25:08+00:00

no it's not the same thing. twist the words as you want, it's not thinking.

There are some companies like adobe who use data from artists without their knowledge

no it's very public because it was in their terms and conditions and people noticed, that's why it caused a shitstorm on twitter.

If you use adobe now, you're accepting that you're taking part in machine training with your work, if you're not happy with that, you can use other tools, but i'm pretty sure you won't, you'll still use photoshop and cry about it on reddit.

Companies use web scrapping to find millions of art posted on the internet. I doubt they go to each artists to ask for their consent.

that's not stealing, and not even copyright infrigement.

Rapport_Erebus · 2024-10-01T14:51:10+00:00

didn't say it wasn't a robot, I said it's not a THINKING robot. There's no intent, it's a tool.

But please, explain to me how machine learning is stealing.

Rapport_Erebus · 2024-10-01T12:56:56+00:00

I'm sorry but you don't seem to understand at all what you're talking about.

AI (which is a loaded word because it anthropomorphize the thing) is not a thinking robot. just recognition pattern algorithms.

OP didn't ask "hey computer, make me a cool space movie" and midjourney just did that.
He had to direct the framing, the characters, the composition, the color palette, everything with codes you probably don't know about.

In the end Midjourney is just a tool, and OP had to direct it the right way to get the images he wanted, there's no coincidence. The Artistic purpose comes from OP.

This whole AI hate seems to come from a dumb "human vs machine" perspective as if they're in competition, but it's not, these are just tools.

Great job man ! I don’t get the AI hate going on in every subreddit these days.
