I find that i can spot AI Images fairly easily these days, especially the sort of fantastical tableaus that get posted to the various AI communities around lemmy. I'm tired of seeing them; it all looks the same to me. Was wondering if im being too sensitive, or if other people are similarly bored of the constant unimaginative AI spam...

For the record, I block any explicit AI Art communities that pop up in the feed, but there are more every day...

it's not art

Oooh, a chance to ask my favourite question!

Why not?

See, I have never really gotten what most would call "art". I've been to museums across the world, big and small; I can appreciate skill in creating a complex piece. But I'm not "good" with art. Most of what I saw in the MoMA I wouldn't call art. Two solid black circles on a white page, I wouldn't call art; nor "found art" like an unmade bed or a broken toilet; nor the seizure that is Pollock's work. But others do, and I accept that they find something in it even though I don't understand how someone can pick up a bucket with a hole in it from the curb and put it on a stool under a spotlight, and call it "art".

So yeah, what makes AI art not art? And who made you the arbitrator?

It’s not art. Accept it or don’t. I don’t care, but it’s not up for debate.

[-] voracitude@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

Yeah, reasonable people have reasons for believing the things they do, so I think I'll just label you unreasonable and move on with my day, random internet stranger.

That’s fine. I can be unreasonable to you. Just like you accusing me of being unreasonable, while seemingly not accepting that I can have an opinion is both ironic and hypocritical.

[-] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Why isn't it up for debate? Pretty sure every idea can be challenged. Maybe it isn't up for debate because you don't want to exert the effort to defend your viewpoint and want us to take you on faith

[-] GilgameshCatBeard@lemmy.ca 2 points 10 months ago

Punching a short sentence into a text field and expecting to be called an artists is the same as asking a computer to write a song for you and saying you’re a musician.

It’s an affront to art, and cringey as fuck when these AI “artists” think they’ve accomplished something.

I hope all those traditional artists are paying royalties to the people who invented their instruments and brushes and pencils. I hope they are paying royalties to Monet for being inspired by his work, and to Neaderthal Tregg the first to sharpen a stick, et al.

It’s amusing that you think this is an argument.

[-] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Please produce the person who did this. I want a name and a date.

[-] GilgameshCatBeard@lemmy.ca 1 points 10 months ago

Everyone that creates shit. You want me to name everyone? Check instagram. There’s plenty of these talentless wannabes posting their garbage there.

Sorry about your luck, kiddo. Consider this a lesson on not getting what you want.

[-] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Pretty typical when something doesn't exist. I should have known from dealing with theists all my life.

[-] GilgameshCatBeard@lemmy.ca 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

My refusal to answer your stupid question is in no way the proof you needed to make your ridiculous point. I saw your “gotcha” a million miles away kiddo. And it’s dumb. Therefore I am refusing to let you lead the discussion in that direction.

Oh, and by the way…

The whole- yu diDn’T aNsWeR me sO tHaT mEaNs i’M riGhT!” trope has never worked on people that actually know that that isn’t how things work. I get that your friends in school kick rocks over shit like that, but it doesn’t work in the real world.

I’m not obligated to answer dumb questions by immature children trying to create an argument out of my opinion.

AI isn’t art.

Deal with it.

Lastly, how exactly am I a theist? I’d love to know how you made that leap. Should be hilarious.
