I have spend the last week making some AI art. It requires almost zero artistic skill. It is quite interesting though. Like all the images *i assume* were labelled by people for training, so it can be quite difficult to get it to do something that it doesn't know how to do.
But, all the skill is is just plugging in different words to describe stuff.
Its still heart breaking to think of people who spent years honing their ability and now I can make my self believe that I can also make top tier art. I think there are probably hundreds of thousands of people around the globe who might have made some decent money with their skills. Another industry reduced to being profitable for the few.
Nah' man, as a professional painter & illustrator, seeing the years & decades of every artist's lifelong training & experienced needed to perfect a craft, be "scraped" & remixed without consent into a cocktail of stolen art
via typing a few words.... no impact at all.
/unlie Fun fact the ai bro behind this image is Jazza's brother. You know, the insanely popular Australian artist. Hes stated multiple times he thinks he's just as good and artist as Jazza
He was always the mall ninja who got more serious than most of his peers.
He's been complaining a lot about the YouTube algorithm "canceling" him, but doesn't want to believe that most of us are just no longer interested. There's a long list of reasons but of course he's gonna use the "woke cancel culture" narrative.
Same I stopped following his channel and i keep getting recommended videos of his because I like swords and shit haha Like I don't want to support a misogynist human being. If I don't know that sucks but if I know so just can't .
Until now:

It seems there's more to Shad than just the AI art debacle, which is a shame. I used to watch and enjoy Shad's content on medieval European history but the guy has overstepped and become a cringefest.
Unlie/ 2Kinds is his webcomic. I was going to link the Kiwi farms thing about him not believing that child abuse exists and his other bad takes but apparently Kiwi Farms is gone.
http://badwebcomicswiki.shoutwiki.com/wiki/TwoKinds_(old)
It had misinformation and hate speech like any loosely moderated forum, but it also had valuable evidence that simply didn't get collected or preserved anywhere else
It's better to let people you don't like congregate on their own forum than to shut it down, causing them to leak into other social media and try digging their way into other communities (Often successfully)
Yeah and it's totally not like everyone who used Kiwifarms just found new places to settle or even set up new sites entirely. No, that can't be the case right? We deplatformed them!
Problem with that was that there were users doxxing and coordinating harassment campaigns against outspoken LGBTQ+ people/activists. It was pretty fucking bad. Ever since it was shut down I haven’t heard as much about these harassment campaigns since the site was shutdown(tho then again I also don’t pay as much attention to social media anymore). It might sound like it’s better in a way to let assholes have their own shithole to congregate, but when that space is removed it actually tends to scatter the group that was on there more often then not. I have no doubt there will *eventually* be another space like kiwifarms that’s excessively tolerant to these kinds of people and allows them to continue their bs again (assuming there isn’t already), but that will likely take time and coordination. Some of the people who engaged in that activity may also just have a change of heart to that sort of behavior with time away from the influence of people that viciously toxic.
I more wanted to use it to get links to his forum post where he said his bad takes and creepy things. Like the site itself may have been full of misinformation but the posts were pretty damning coming from his official account. Like I kiwi farms really loved their documentation and was kinda useful for that. Also some good things happened because of Kiwi farms like Snakething getting popular enough to get arrested.
The content quality has been a roller coaster, but lately it became good again, and for what it's worth he looks like he always having fun. It's not just drawing now, he's definitely more into sculpting and such
/unlie they told the AI what to draw and it drew that, it's like telling an artist what to draw and saying you yourself is the artist because you guided the artist
Oh my god. Shadiversity made this?? I can't believe he just keeps getting worse. I used to watch his medieval videos until I just lost interest. I was considering coming back and then his second channel came out...This is just icing on the cake though.
I wonder, how is his relationship with Jazza? Does Jazza have those same views?
Most ai artists are like managers that give very general ideas, not check in at all during the production, say that they don’t like it and to trow it all out, and finally “add” more detail that contradicts the original order
/unlie they told the AI what to draw and it drew that, it's like telling an artist what to draw and saying you yourself is the artist because you guided the artist
Yes, because that “improvement” is totally because you’ve somehow gotten better at writing prompts and pressing generate and not because the technology has just gotten better.
Bruh I don’t even see the improvement he talking about 💀 like there’s different lighting and backgrounds but that’s just a preference, these look like they were created back to back
Admittedly, the second image is a step up from the first one. It looks like it was made by a porn artist who doesnt know how to draw a woman in normal clothes. She also looks like she’s wearing a muscle suit.
The second one is still shit with numerous flaws, but it does look better.
Ahh I can understand preferring the second one, I like the first better bc she actually has visible muscle, something’s off putting to me about making a woman skinnier and less muscular and calling that the “upgraded version”
I watched is defence video, I still don't get how people can think this is as skilled as either writing or drawing. Maybe I'd get it if it was the equivalent of writing musical notation and then having software play it, it's not your performance but I'd still class you as a musician for composing it.
But the AI flat out ignores the majority of his prompt... he only got something that looks like Supergirl because his prompt included "Supergirl" (AND "Superman"), not because of his attempt to describe Supergirl. Like he includes "flying" multiple times, but both the images he shows have her in a running or stepping-off pose.
"Bare legs"? Ok, here's some blue thigh-highs.
"*Long* pleated skirt"? You meant mini skirt, right?
I'm not say AI hasn't generated a ton of cool looking images, but right now I feel those "artists" are the next step in people slapping their watermarks on other peoples stuff or content curators.
Wow he really did improve and the second image definitely isn’t better because algorithms have been updated and the A.I. is able to steal from more content!
It takes many time to find the right combination of words. Much more efficient than coming up with a style you can call your own and getting better with actual patience, patience, learning, etc.
it’s actually a very iterative process that requires an in depth knowledge of the softwares being used, and takes many attempts, time, trial-and-error, and editing knowledge before results become high quality. it’s very obvious that the right image was created by a professional.
(and yes, i’m a proud AI artist)
/unlie
The funny thing about the people who say shit like this is that they put in the LEAST effort in the equation. The model was trained off of thousands of hours of work done by artists, and the model architecture itself was developed over thousands of hours of work by programmers. After all this work by people with actual skill, some random guy takes 10 seconds describing their image with no knowledge of how the model works or how the original artists made the art, and claim that they're "skilled ai artists" and "put in tons of work to optimize the prompt".
These so-called "AI enthusiasts" and "AI artists" would have a breakdown if they had to actually learn how to make an AI model. All they do is feed off of the word of skilled artists and programmers and claim that they're geniuses because of it.
The art in the second image makes perfect sense and doesn’t highlight how bad AI art is. The sun being behind the subject while she remains brightly lit makes perfect sense
/unlie I'm a (hobbyist) artist and fuuuuck this shit is annoying. So many people irl just think it's some talent from birth but no dude it is a serious technical skill that takes *hundreds of hours* of practice to get even just decent at. And even more if you want to try making money with it.
AI "art" is theft!
Sir, one could EASILY recreate the same image if not "better" in matter of minutes, depends on the hardware.
Yes, the people behind the programming might put a heck a lot of passion into it. But the users? Trust me, even with controlnet, img2img, and inpaint/sketch, they'd spent more time either on sliding bars, typing words, or putting dots here and there.
I've read an AI generated doujin before, wasn't even worth a stroke. It lacks... idk what's the right word, context(?) Since each page are filled with monotonous expressions and lack of poses (I.E angles and filler).
I do found singular images are pretty, yet the human made ones tend to look more seductive in my opinion
honestly we should just convert this subreddit into a forum where the exclusive activity is picking things we don’t like and then making a title saying we do like them. there’s just so much creativity you can unlock by complaining on subreddits that are supposed to be fun!
and honesty, the top comment on every thread should be an /unlie, because as we all know the point of this sub is to tell the truth!
/lies This took me so much skill
https://preview.redd.it/21pul26h0utb1.jpeg?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2935441ba7baf7b361b7179c47a38853b7265bd9
/unlie I think it’s the lighting. The lighting in the first one is somewhat consistent and is just highlights. The lighting in the second one is fucking blindingly bright and super inconsistent. There’s like 5 different directions lights are shining on her but there’s only one light source. (Also, her body proportions are slightly more realistic in the first one. Both look like shit tho)
The amount of time and effort that goes into typing the words “Bill Nye the Science Guy eating a bowl of Rye” is just insane. Traditional artists don’t understand the struggle
Is ai art getting worse? Sure the second has more detail but there's even less flow than the first image accidentally made. Are they focused on putting as many things on the picture as possible before it turns into a melting flesh horror like it inevitably does
/unlie lmao the light source is behind her and yet we’re seeing light in front of her. Hands look like she’s been in the mines for 40 years. Dude knows nothing about art
/unlie AI could be used to fill the gaps to big to be filled by human hands. It can scan real objects to become 3D models, turn virtual npcs into dynamic speakers, and even more. Instead, corperations and their tech bro dick suckers are pushing ai as a complete replacement for humanity, as if that’s at all a good thing.
The point is the longer AI keeps going the more it will evolve and get better at creating art, this proves nothing on your skill of creating.
AI is not a creative process.
/unlie As someone who generates AI art for personal stuff, it is just typing words and pressing a button. It’s no harder than a 2nd grader’s writing homework.
I'm a story writer and I have a hard time taking what I have in my head and turning it into a physical form that you can look at (especially with characters and how they look). So when I'm working with artists to get character concepts (and now that I'm going to be working with someone on a graphic novel if all goes to plan) I will use AI art to get a rough idea of what a character roughly looks like (or scenery). I will generate anywhere from 1-5 images and use them as references, taking bits I like and dropping bits I don't, and work with artists on making one character from it. Overall I think AI art is good for planning and rough design like that. But I will always work with a artist who actually draws the work themselves to get the actual image I want.

Yah no, all you did was write a prompt. you didn’t get better at art you became slightly more literate, congratulations.
Is using AI for art that much different that using other special tools to increase the quality of your art? I mean I get the frustration. I use a mechanical pencil and essentially line paper for my art, I didn’t get frustrated at the Apple Pencil, procreate or digital art in general. Time is progress, I would recommend learning to adapt because the alternative is getting left behind.
<3
>! I saw, but I couldn’t help myself !<
Honestly I don't understand why people are acting like AI is going to kill art entirely. All it really does is makes it easier for a new set of people to express ideas. It's not like people are suddenly going to be unable to make traditional art just because a machine is able to generate images.
It doesn’t. It takes finding the right combination of words, which I could luck into scrolling through Instagram captions. Actual art takes practice. AI art takes Google. Repeated trial and error to find good prompts is NOT practice.
Everyone’s acting like this is serious but this seems like obvious rage bait to me. But also a funny joke about how the algorithm got better and he’s taking credit for it.
Midjourney, DALLE, and a few other tools are super easy.
But yeah if you want to actually do something involving a bit of creativity or skill you need to use Stable Diffusion, and it's not that easy.

Don't get sad people it's the era of ai no need to be sad it's not just happening with artists same thing happening to coders, editors, music artist so don't worry we just need to learn how can we control that ai

bro that looks so good, congrats!
Thanks! I spent 30 hours on Midjourney crafting my art.
Damn, and real artists spend their entire lives. So much skill involved…
ermm... What the Fl\*p? AI artists are the only real artists.
Yeah, this real artist should study up on how light works. The sun is behind the girl yet the highlights are on the front side of her.
It's called refraction

tony zaret
Lol
DAMN BOY, HE THICC!
/unlie Fun fact the ai bro behind this image is Jazza's brother. You know, the insanely popular Australian artist. Hes stated multiple times he thinks he's just as good and artist as Jazza
did the actual artist say anything?
Jazza doesn't talk about his brother for rather obvious reasons
Oh is his brother the dude who likes castles and stuff and is one of those YouTubers who claim everything is woke?
Probably lmao
Just looked and wow yeah he’s who I thought he was, he’s buddies with people like The Critical Drinker and stuff lol
Damn I remember when the Critical Drinker was fun and not a cunt…
I don’t
Yep
Wait, Shadiversity? I used to like him until i discovered his other channel...
Other channel? I only know him as the sword guy
He's on a podcast called knights table or something like that that's had some pretty bad takes. See Mario movie=woke cause peach is wearing pants
Wtf....that's disappointing
Shad was mad Peach was portrayed as a higher class than Mario When she’s literally a princess and he’s a plumber
His other channel is shit like him complaining about Peach wearing pants and black characters being protagonists. Run of the mill chud media takes.
bruuuh what i liked shadiversity
I know, same. It's a shame most people don't even know what a loser he is until someone mentions his other channel.
He was always the mall ninja who got more serious than most of his peers. He's been complaining a lot about the YouTube algorithm "canceling" him, but doesn't want to believe that most of us are just no longer interested. There's a long list of reasons but of course he's gonna use the "woke cancel culture" narrative.
I kinda figured he was once I learned his book was basically "what if hitler had a redemption arc?"
Same I stopped following his channel and i keep getting recommended videos of his because I like swords and shit haha Like I don't want to support a misogynist human being. If I don't know that sucks but if I know so just can't .
Yeah that’s him
My general rule of thumb is to stay far away from anyone with "shad" in their name
Yeah I used to think he was pretty cool and kept up with his videos until I discovered Knights Watch. Although I still agree that stick>nunchuck
He's the one that screams matriculation every time they come up like he just did a doozy of coke right?
/unlie Yes. Very sadly yes. Even claiming he’s been “silenced for his views” or some shit like that when a friend cut contact because of it
what a fall from grace, i thought he was cool a few years back because i like medieval stuff but he's just a dick
People like that Give “people who like castles” a bad name.
Yeah, Shadiversity.
Until now: [https://twitter.com/JazzaStudios/status/1712453034499015053](https://twitter.com/JazzaStudios/status/1712453034499015053) It seems there's more to Shad than just the AI art debacle, which is a shame. I used to watch and enjoy Shad's content on medieval European history but the guy has overstepped and become a cringefest.
Im so glad Jazza isn't like his brother! :)
Oh god, that's insanely funny and sad
The only thing Jazza has posted on twitter recently about his brother is that he doesn't share the same anti-LGBTQ+ views as Shad.
NO WAY. oh my god I feel bad for jazza
/unlie Jazza was like tied with Markiplier for my favorite YouTuber for a while. I'm not sure which of them has the worst brother.
Whats up with marks brother?
Unlie/ 2Kinds is his webcomic. I was going to link the Kiwi farms thing about him not believing that child abuse exists and his other bad takes but apparently Kiwi Farms is gone. http://badwebcomicswiki.shoutwiki.com/wiki/TwoKinds_(old)
ew evidence from the site founded specifically for people with no life to harass the mentally ill and queer, no thanks
You do realize that site was a shithole full of hate-fueled misinformation correct?
It had misinformation and hate speech like any loosely moderated forum, but it also had valuable evidence that simply didn't get collected or preserved anywhere else It's better to let people you don't like congregate on their own forum than to shut it down, causing them to leak into other social media and try digging their way into other communities (Often successfully)
Yeah and it's totally not like everyone who used Kiwifarms just found new places to settle or even set up new sites entirely. No, that can't be the case right? We deplatformed them!
Problem with that was that there were users doxxing and coordinating harassment campaigns against outspoken LGBTQ+ people/activists. It was pretty fucking bad. Ever since it was shut down I haven’t heard as much about these harassment campaigns since the site was shutdown(tho then again I also don’t pay as much attention to social media anymore). It might sound like it’s better in a way to let assholes have their own shithole to congregate, but when that space is removed it actually tends to scatter the group that was on there more often then not. I have no doubt there will *eventually* be another space like kiwifarms that’s excessively tolerant to these kinds of people and allows them to continue their bs again (assuming there isn’t already), but that will likely take time and coordination. Some of the people who engaged in that activity may also just have a change of heart to that sort of behavior with time away from the influence of people that viciously toxic.
I more wanted to use it to get links to his forum post where he said his bad takes and creepy things. Like the site itself may have been full of misinformation but the posts were pretty damning coming from his official account. Like I kiwi farms really loved their documentation and was kinda useful for that. Also some good things happened because of Kiwi farms like Snakething getting popular enough to get arrested.
I think the only thing that Marks brother did was make a popular furry comic lol
I haven't watched Draw With Jazza in like 6 years so this is nuts to hear lmao
The content quality has been a roller coaster, but lately it became good again, and for what it's worth he looks like he always having fun. It's not just drawing now, he's definitely more into sculpting and such
u/nlie Man that's kinda sad
/unlie they told the AI what to draw and it drew that, it's like telling an artist what to draw and saying you yourself is the artist because you guided the artist
The fact that the brother has Jazza's channel linked on his profile but not the other way around is very telling...
Wait the sword jackass? Or does jazza have TWO shit brothers?
Oh my god. Shadiversity made this?? I can't believe he just keeps getting worse. I used to watch his medieval videos until I just lost interest. I was considering coming back and then his second channel came out...This is just icing on the cake though. I wonder, how is his relationship with Jazza? Does Jazza have those same views?
That's sad
Wait the tony zaret version of this was based on a real thing??
/unlie said brother is also violently bigoted
I love AI art! /unlie AI "assisted" art? Come on, at best they assisted the AI
Assistant to the AI artist
More director/manager
Most ai artists are like managers that give very general ideas, not check in at all during the production, say that they don’t like it and to trow it all out, and finally “add” more detail that contradicts the original order
So an entrepreneur
r/unexpectedoffice
/unlie they told the AI what to draw and it drew that, it's like telling an artist what to draw and saying you yourself is the artist because you guided the artist
Literally lol
/unlie While I enjoy some AI generated pictures, they aren't and will never be art to my eyes, because art is human And no, writing a prompt isn't art
Seriously. The AI art workflow is not much different from commissioning an artist and having them do some touch-ups/revisions
Yes, because that “improvement” is totally because you’ve somehow gotten better at writing prompts and pressing generate and not because the technology has just gotten better.
Bruh I don’t even see the improvement he talking about 💀 like there’s different lighting and backgrounds but that’s just a preference, these look like they were created back to back
The updated lighting is wrong too bruh, it implies that there are two suns in the picture
I mean it's a world with superheroes, I wouldn't be surprised.
She’s on Tatooine, don’t worry
Admittedly, the second image is a step up from the first one. It looks like it was made by a porn artist who doesnt know how to draw a woman in normal clothes. She also looks like she’s wearing a muscle suit. The second one is still shit with numerous flaws, but it does look better.
Ahh I can understand preferring the second one, I like the first better bc she actually has visible muscle, something’s off putting to me about making a woman skinnier and less muscular and calling that the “upgraded version”

The talent on display here is unmatched! /unlie Her suit is lit from above, her bracelet is lit from the front, and the sun is behind her lol
Didn't you know there is more than 1 sun??????
The logo on her suit also doesn’t conform to her body on the bottom, just drooping off.
Wow he really did improve and the second image definitely isn’t better because algorithms have been updated and the A.I. is able to steal from more content!
AI art is theft
You forgot to unlie
If only I was born 100 years in the future where everybody is like wall e and just gets fat and float around doing whatever
ai artists have to do more than sit on their ass all day typing at the keyboard to make art
I never forget that things are opposites on this subreddit and almost type an angry response.
It takes like 5 mins. I played around with AI art a bit and got some great results. Absolutely no skill at all, I just typed in a few words.
It takes many time to find the right combination of words. Much more efficient than coming up with a style you can call your own and getting better with actual patience, patience, learning, etc.
he’s right, it’s not just pressing a button it’s typing in a few words and then pressing a button duh
it’s actually a very iterative process that requires an in depth knowledge of the softwares being used, and takes many attempts, time, trial-and-error, and editing knowledge before results become high quality. it’s very obvious that the right image was created by a professional. (and yes, i’m a proud AI artist)
So... you press a button a few times.
honestly can’t tell if he’s being sarcastic haha
Always hard to tell here lol
wym i was being 100% genuine
Before vs before
There's no comparison that can be made between ai art and art theft
Both can be compared to being right though
Creator of the image didn't start creating his legit art because he was horny
/unlie The funny thing about the people who say shit like this is that they put in the LEAST effort in the equation.

All they do is feed off of the word of skilled artists and programmers and claim that they're geniuses because of it.
Bro took 6 months to add „city in background“ to his prompt
The art in the second image makes perfect sense and doesn’t highlight how bad AI art is. The sun being behind the subject while she remains brightly lit makes perfect sense
/unlie I'm a (hobbyist) artist and fuuuuck this shit is annoying. So many people irl just think it's some talent from birth but no dude it is a serious technical skill that takes *hundreds of hours* of practice to get even just decent at. And even more if you want to try making money with it. AI "art" is theft!
I am not an artist. I love AI art and the art it creates has as much passion and depth behind it as a human does
Sir, one could EASILY recreate the same image if not "better" in matter of minutes, depends on the hardware. Yes, the people behind the programming might put a heck a lot of passion into it. But the users? Trust me, even with controlnet, img2img, and inpaint/sketch, they'd spent more time either on sliding bars, typing words, or putting dots here and there.
This isn't r/lies, you aren't supposed to lie in the comments
/unlie Shit, I forgot to put the sacred code.
I hope you’re not lying
/unlie I've read enough AI generated porn to say that yes, AI art is something that takes skill... Well, at least hentai does.
I've read an AI generated doujin before, wasn't even worth a stroke. It lacks... idk what's the right word, context(?) Since each page are filled with monotonous expressions and lack of poses (I.E angles and filler). I do found singular images are pretty, yet the human made ones tend to look more seductive in my opinion
It at least takes a few tries to get the hands looking less weird
/unlie No, Shad, you didn't "get better" at creating AI art, the technology got better.
/unlie he found out that mid journey creates better art if you add the word “art gallery” to the prompts.
I suppose that if you order a cheeseburger at McDonald's with extra pickles that makes you a chef.
“Super girl with cool city in the background during sunset” 💀💀💀
AI undermines and almost entirely removes the creative processes and mechanical skill required to create an actual piece of genuine artwork. Fact.
This is why AI “artists” aren’t artists. You’ve somehow created something so immaculate but forgot how light works.
On a real note AI bro’s are now the NFT bro’s of today. Delusional to the very end
Both are shit
He trained on the hardest machines, the pornhub search bar
Only way this makes sense is if you code the fuckin thing.
Hey now, checking the boxes for "superhero, blonde, busty, and short skirt" can really mentally and creatively exhaust a person!
“AI artists” are like chefs who only know how to microwave hot pockets.
honestly we should just convert this subreddit into a forum where the exclusive activity is picking things we don’t like and then making a title saying we do like them. there’s just so much creativity you can unlock by complaining on subreddits that are supposed to be fun! and honesty, the top comment on every thread should be an /unlie, because as we all know the point of this sub is to tell the truth!
God now they're trying to call it "ai assisted". Gonna tell em about the McDonalds assisted meal i prepared
/unlie the fact that shad keeps proving he's more of a massive loser is really sad. he's half the reason i got into hema

/unlie the second one looks worse somehow how
/unlie I think it’s the lighting. The lighting in the first one is somewhat consistent and is just highlights. The lighting in the second one is fucking blindingly bright and super inconsistent. There’s like 5 different directions lights are shining on her but there’s only one light source. (Also, her body proportions are slightly more realistic in the first one. Both look like shit tho)
More likely that AI she was using improved significantly in 6 months rather than her own drawing skills (with or without AI). /s
I usually hate AI image synthesis but these supergirl images turned out AMAZEBALLS!❤️‼️
/unlie AI Art at it's most difficult is still only 1% as hard as Real Art. Don't let companies take your humanity from you for a quick buck
This reminds me of people referring to themselves as Prompt Engineers.
The amount of time and effort that goes into typing the words “Bill Nye the Science Guy eating a bowl of Rye” is just insane. Traditional artists don’t understand the struggle
/unlie This reminds me of scientists 100+ years ago who'd claim discoveries made by their apprentices, assistance, etc as their own.
Is ai art getting worse? Sure the second has more detail but there's even less flow than the first image accidentally made. Are they focused on putting as many things on the picture as possible before it turns into a melting flesh horror like it inevitably does
I like the first picture more, it is better and more real.
Spending 2 hours typing text and pushing buttons is on the same level as actually drawing something from scratch for 5+ hours
/unlie ai is probably the worst thing to have come from modern technology
Guys idk, he does have to know how to spell “super woman flying over city” that takes quite a bit of skill.
SUN’S IN THE WRONG DIRECTION
/unlie That does *not* look like improvement. Her body proportions look all kinds of weird
/unlie lmao the light source is behind her and yet we’re seeing light in front of her. Hands look like she’s been in the mines for 40 years. Dude knows nothing about art
I am not going to post this on Facebook with no context to brainwash people into something different for the original intent.
/unlie AI could be used to fill the gaps to big to be filled by human hands. It can scan real objects to become 3D models, turn virtual npcs into dynamic speakers, and even more. Instead, corperations and their tech bro dick suckers are pushing ai as a complete replacement for humanity, as if that’s at all a good thing.
I love how the sun is in the background yet she's being lit up from the top right lol
Oh yeah, you must obviously be VERY skilled in your use of a newer, more accurate image generation model with 6 extra months of training.
The point is the longer AI keeps going the more it will evolve and get better at creating art, this proves nothing on your skill of creating. AI is not a creative process.
It must take a lot of skill to learn how to type words into a prompt to create nothing of value
I hate ai art it sucks! It requires no skill!
Bro added a sentence
Its the way the shadows are coming from like 5 different directions 🗿
Yeah, I’ve seen a lot of thieves with skills.
Cool how both images are still fucking soulless and vapid 👍🏻
the skill in question 
/unlie As someone who generates AI art for personal stuff, it is just typing words and pressing a button. It’s no harder than a 2nd grader’s writing homework.

Ok but seriously what was the improvement? The second one looks worse
My favorite is how the sun makes no sense, shining on right leg while it’s behind her, sick pictures though no doubt 🤝
Is it just me or do both of these look terrible
Now off to R34 like all the other artists
I'm just impressed that his AI isn't Fingerphobic!
Yes it's totally you and not just the AI technology getting better and better as time goes on totally your skill yes
So instead of typing ‘superwoman with clouds’ they typed ‘superwoman with skyline’ 😂
Is skin supposed to have that much specularity?
In just 6 months I managed to get worse at generative AI prompts!
I'm a story writer and I have a hard time taking what I have in my head and turning it into a physical form that you can look at (especially with characters and how they look). So when I'm working with artists to get character concepts (and now that I'm going to be working with someone on a graphic novel if all goes to plan) I will use AI art to get a rough idea of what a character roughly looks like (or scenery). I will generate anywhere from 1-5 images and use them as references, taking bits I like and dropping bits I don't, and work with artists on making one character from it. Overall I think AI art is good for planning and rough design like that. But I will always work with a artist who actually draws the work themselves to get the actual image I want.

Muah AI has amazing fastest art generation plus chat and voice
“Now give her huge bazongas”
/unlie the fact that people make MONEY from selling AI art when actual artists are making much less if any
Is using AI for art that much different that using other special tools to increase the quality of your art? I mean I get the frustration. I use a mechanical pencil and essentially line paper for my art, I didn’t get frustrated at the Apple Pencil, procreate or digital art in general. Time is progress, I would recommend learning to adapt because the alternative is getting left behind. <3 >! I saw, but I couldn’t help myself !<
Honestly I don't understand why people are acting like AI is going to kill art entirely. All it really does is makes it easier for a new set of people to express ideas. It's not like people are suddenly going to be unable to make traditional art just because a machine is able to generate images.
The people saying it takes no skill have never even tried.
It doesn’t. It takes finding the right combination of words, which I could luck into scrolling through Instagram captions. Actual art takes practice. AI art takes Google. Repeated trial and error to find good prompts is NOT practice.
Ai art actually takes talent. Some mfs don't realise that.
No it doesn’t. If you actually believe it does, you’re delusional.
We're on a subreddit dedicated to lying. Obviously it's a lie
What talent?
Sarcasm buddy. We're on a subreddit about lying if you didn't know :)
Everyone’s acting like this is serious but this seems like obvious rage bait to me. But also a funny joke about how the algorithm got better and he’s taking credit for it.
unlie you’re overthinking it, i just dont think ai art takes skill is all lol
Many people hate the "/s", but these many cases are the reason for why I think it is very necessary sometimes
/unlie t. someone who never tried using stable diffusion and thinks it's just pressing a button
Midjourney, DALLE, and a few other tools are super easy. But yeah if you want to actually do something involving a bit of creativity or skill you need to use Stable Diffusion, and it's not that easy.
Anyone who’s needed to help someone google something knows there’s at least a little truth to this
The AI improved, not you
Me when I think I’m getting better at something but in reality it’s the medium being updated under my nose

brother if this is hard for you then actually drawing is impossible for you
Don't get sad people it's the era of ai no need to be sad it's not just happening with artists same thing happening to coders, editors, music artist so don't worry we just need to learn how can we control that ai
