What artists do you know that make money off their art? The starving artist not being able to make money to survive has been a thing since before Van Gogh's time.
We've automated the food making process, but people still make money off of preparation of food, there's always going to be a market for artists, but that market will be different.
These AI things are great tools to assist artists, but the fear mongering gets in the way.
No, this is a tool that does all of the work of an artist. It is absolutely not an assistant.
That's a bad faith argument, and it's actively harmful. Artists are struggling yes, and this just makes that worse, it won't be a separate market that somehow doesn't impact them.
If you think we should actually work to make it harder for artists to do things, that it's actually good that they struggle, then you have some messed up priorities, friend.
Ok so it's absolutely not an assistant right? So say I'm working on a business logo and I'm having a hard time coming up with an idea to branch off of, I use an ai image gen to create a bunch of logos in a bunch of styles, I then use a couple as starting points for a design. How is that not a tool to assist an artist?
Just because you don't see it as a tool to assist an artist's doesn't mean it isn't, people will use any tool for good or evil.
It’s not assisting you in anything. It’s doing all the work for you
