Generally in favour of that notion.

But I also don't think being able to communicate ideas visually should be strictly in the domain of people who can draw.

I can't draw AND Ii don't have anything worth saying so it isn't really an issue for me, personally. I just slap impact font on a carefully selected meme template, the way God intended.

Edit: Behold

Even without knowing how to draw, couldnt you just take images from the internet and edit them together?

[-] Doomsider@lemmy.world 7 points 4 days ago

Aw yes because the effort is what matters?

That is why I tell loggers they should use hands saws. Chainsaws are really just cheating.

I was responding to that. I have no intention to argue why something so many people dont want to constantly see should or shouldnt be forced to be seen by those people

[-] Doomsider@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

I think you got me wrong. I was just commenting down a chain of thought which starts with someone needing to have skill mastery to communicate art to someone who puts images together to do the same.

Where do we draw the line and is effort really the deciding factor or just an excuse for snobbery.

[-] RandomVideos@programming.dev 1 points 4 days ago

But this is unrelated to the comment you originally replied to

[-] Doomsider@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Just having a conversation here.

[-] RandomVideos@programming.dev 1 points 4 days ago

Why not just reply to the comment that brought AI into topic?

[-] Doomsider@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

As I explained I was expanding on a conversation. Do you have an opinion here?

It feels like you don't. If you don't have an opinion and don't want to talk I have nothing more to say.

[-] RandomVideos@programming.dev 1 points 4 days ago

Does it matter if i have an opinion here? You brought a counterargument somewhere where there was no argument, which could be used as a manipulation tactic

[-] Doomsider@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

It was just a comment. Did you know people come here to talk. I the Future, if you have nothing to say you can just say nothing.

Frankly, the problem with AI slop isn't the AI, it's the slop. We now get to see what all those "I have so many great ideas, if only I could draw, you'd see!" people's ideas actually are, and it's... this shit.

[-] Melonpoly@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

Anyone can draw it just takes time and effort.

[-] gofsckyourself@lemmy.world 14 points 5 days ago

"Can't draw" effectively means "don't currently have the skill" not "will never be able to", generally. If it would take hours learning a new skill to create one thing and if you don't have the available time to do so, then that's outside of the realm of a reasonable expectation, and thus effectively counts as "can't".

Nah lol I can draw this terribly in Paint easy peasy

No amount of effort or practicing worked for me. I don't know if it's some kind of visual issue, a mental issue, or what. I do have aphantasia, so that might be related? I cannot reproduce something I see. It's just like the data that make up the thing don't make sense in a way I can put it on paper,

[-] Doomsider@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

This is really a teaching issue. There are several techniques that can train your brain how to draw. Arguably you may never be a great artist but you can definitely learn to draw with adequate results.
