A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Alt text from source01: A girl labeled 'Artists' is holding a drawing tablet and pen under her arm. She is wearing round glasses and a blue sweatshirt. She has messy dark-brown hair and a brown skin-tone. She says "We don't really wanna MAKE A.I. art."

02: A guy labeled 'Art Enjoyers' holds his hand out while speaking. She is wearing a purple and yellow hawaiian shirt with a floral pattern over a white t-shirt, and has red hair and a light skin-tone. He says "We don't really wanna SEE A.I. art."

03: Behind them both, there is a cute girl in a business suit with a pink tie. She is blushing a bit and has pink eyeshadow, and looks upset. Her messy shoulder-length hair is parted in the middle, and held by two hairclips: one that looks like a red arrow pointing down, and one that looks like a green arrow pointing up. She says "Um ... I-Isn't there someone you forgot to ask?" She is labeled 'Shareholders'.

04: She puffs up her cheeks and pouts, a tear is on the verge of falling from one of her eyes. 'Artist Enjoyers' Guy is now in front of her yelling "AH!! SHAREHOLDERS-CHAN!!" while 'Artists' Girl is in front of her yelling "WE'RE SORRY WE HURT YOU!!!!"

Can you show something you’ve made?

Almost all AI art I see is anime girls and video game landscapes. Show me something that demonstrates creativity.

I’m no skilled artists, but I’ve spent dozens of hours just blocking. It’s really interesting to try to translate what I see in three dimensional space to two dimensions. How long do you typically spend preparing a project?

"you're not a real artist if you use XYZ" has been with us since the invention of photography.

AI slop is not art, but who said you can't use AI to do art at all? I know several artists (real ones, oil painters, selling their work) using AI.

Okay, I want to see it though. That’s kinda my question. I see a lot of slop, I haven’t seen anything else.

I’m a huge fan of Duchamp even, who seems to be massively misunderstood, as he is typically, in the thread. I want to see evidence of good art with AI.

Edit: it’s really interesting, I’ve had similar conversations multiple times before, but no one actually shares good AI art. Just argues that it is possible, never any proof…
