@Darktiste I get what you say about it taking less people to create movies and video games, along with how artist is needed to be human and experience life to therefore insert those experiences and emotions in the art. Yes, you are right there are some areas that the AI lacks in, at least as of now and it still needs the human cool factor.
The Outpainting feature seems interesting and maybe you should experiment with that and see what comes of it. I see how the AI could be good for the randomization. Yeah, I'm not with the idea of photo bashing, just not my thing, and I definitely take pride in drawing and painting my work out as much as possible unless I'm strapped for time and have to start taking those industry shortcuts to yield a finished product for a deadline. It does take a certain skill to photo bash well, it's an art form of its own and I always think of matte painting when it comes to photo bashing. Yes, good artist steals tastefully but it's different when a machine, or better yet algorithm is doing it. There is no good way to justify what AI developers have done to program their databases and make it be ok, at least not to me. Creative human stealing can be about giving back, but the AI just consumes and produces, and repeats infinitely; we might take 50 to one hundred times to try and understand something, but AI can 50k times in seconds or less. The artist should have been put first to begin with, now there is a monster created with the potential to create many more monsters cause this thing can train itself and spawn children that can quickly do the same, there is no stopping it now, the damage is done and corporate greed wins.
Playing with AI to me is like playing with fire, it's just a matter of time before getting burned by it, and that has already started to happen without even having to type in one prompt. Innocent people's lives are affected by this and there is tremendous change on the horizon. Reality as we know it is going to change very soon due to all this, hopefully everyone will be happy with the end results as it could all lead to something good, but things will get much worse before they get better with this situation.
It sucks that this thing damages the process of things like writing, creating images, making music etc, it's very unfortunate because the process is why most even do any of these things at all. You think I aspired to be a visual artist of any sort to just type a prompt in the computer and have it do the majority of my work? Absolutely not! If someone would have told be this all would have come to be at the end of 2022, I would have written the visual arts off as a hobby a long time ago, along with anything else this AI crap can deeply effect.
I respect and understand if you don't really care for the process of image making, and that is perfectly fine and ok, and if you like having conversations with the AI visually or in any other way, then you should of course continue pursuing what you find interest and passion in, and in that respect I'm glad these new changes in the world work out for your personal best interest.
Very cool on the exploration of the 10 designs and the most recent ones are pretty wild indeed. The top right and bottom Dopplegangsters are very cool ideas. I'd say for me it's a tie between Dopplegangster and Shadowstep, both of them are strong visual ideas that can definitely be monopolized on, perhaps flip a coin to decide on which one of if you have the time do both maybe even featured in the same image.
