Yeah, no.
First AI right now can create very decent images in seconds for basically free, and it only will get better.
Second, AI can do much more than that: translation, Explaining a text in simpler words, help write code, semantic search... Creating poems about armadillos and talking like a pirate are fun novelties, but not the goals.
What happened to translation in the last 15 years will now happen to creative design.
So, nothing? Because you still need professional translators for creative works, plenty of writing simply doesn't directly translate as it relies on culture-specific context that readers in other languages and countries don't have. So you need someone who is well versed in both cultures to find an appropriate alternative for the translated work.
90% of translation needs are from tourists in foreign nations. They are fulfilled via AI.
AI art is the same. Instead of learning how to sing/play/draw over a period of years, just use AI to get to a good enough solution for far cheaper/free.
If you have zero standards in your art and don't want a connection with other people through art: sure.
But people get bored by Marvel Movies quite quickly.
They make and entertain millions
And people get bored of them.
the stats say otherwise
Hahaha look how you get downvoted for stating the obvious. Amazing community here.
Well, it's a classic. Now look at this:
opens umbrella
They make bulletproof umbrellas now?
It's so impossible in fact that the CIA spends millions destabilizing countries that are even threatening to become socialist.
It's one of the reasons that make it impossible in practice.
The USSR spent millions the other way tho.
I dont see any rain coming, you can close your umbrella
Is that supposed to count as"stating the obvious? O.o
There are so many factual errors in their comment tho.
Good things you stated some? Why not have an actual discussion instead of a pissing contest?
That stuff is not free, for example. The energy and water usage is simply not economical.
I said basically free. It costs a fraction of a cent to generate an image, that would take a human a few hours at least.
What if I tell you that the effort that gets put nto the image is a vital part of art?
Well, that's your opinion. I'm more of a finished product kind of guy.
You just said it: you value more the "product" part of art. Not the "art" part.
You know you can run a lot of these models on your home PC right
