remember how before chat gippity came along it was common for people to say constraints make better products, usually with regard to old games or movies before CGI

@deprecated_ii Silver lining, removing the constraint of "every creative choice must be made by committee" might open us up to a lot more experimental stuff
@Kazak @deprecated_ii Counterpoint: most people who are going to "benefit" from this are not particularly creative and nothing new is really offered in the area of artistic freedom that the internet doesn't already provide. Due to direct funding a lot of the "committee" is already dead for independent artists who have an audience.
@wgiwf @deprecated_ii What do you mean by "nothing new"? AI has unquestionably made solo video production and solo game development like 100x easier. The scope for what's viable for solo projects is way broader now than it's ever been
@Kazak @wgiwf there's a saying that art comes from struggle (or whatever those goobers say), and I used to laugh at it because I thought it meant you had to be one of those performatively tortured starving artist types to make "real" art. like pain itself was somehow an essential part of the work
but I have a new appreciation for the saying now. it's not about suffering, it's about putting in the work to develop skills, to learn the craft and the body of work relevant to what you want to do, and that journey turning you into someone who can make good art
with AI, almost nobody will put in the work anymore. they can jump straight to an outcome, but the outcome will be shit
it's climbing a mountain vs having a helicopter drop you off at the top

AI isn't stopping anyone from drawing and being poor while doing it.
Not yet.
AI actually facilitates the real artist by eliminating markets for human created art works. Only those who create because they enjoy it will pursue the craft, resulting in art as art and not as commercial product or social recognition / fame.
You think AI could create this?
This isn't a Jackson Pollock painting...?
