Fuckin' SSSLLAAmmMMMMmEeeDddd, dude!

Like a trashcan lid to the head!

[-] million@lemmy.world 16 points 8 months ago

How will they survive such a thorough slamming?

I can’t wait until we are on the other side of the slammed. I am sure it will be replaced by an equally annoying word choice.

Always downvote slammed articles

@pregnenolone has been Slamming slammed articles!

[-] CorrodedCranium@leminal.space 28 points 8 months ago

I really don't care one way or the other. I think AI being used is an inevitability. I think it would only really be relevant if Microsoft had a policy against AI being used in games for things like asset generation for example.

[-] Primarily0617@kbin.social 45 points 8 months ago

gods am i glad microsoft didn't have to dip into their literal trillion dollar valuation to pay independent artists any money at all to advertise the independent developers they're so gleeful to take credit for

[-] clearleaf@lemmy.world 9 points 8 months ago

It wouldn't be an independent artist it would be a marketing company

[-] RagingRobot@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Yeah or an artist they already have on salary. This was just less work for someone already working for them.

It doesn't matter if you all don't like ai art. It's not going away and it will only continue to be more prevalent.

You should embrace it. I say this as someone who has a ton of debt from art school still. Resistance is futile.

[-] CorrodedCranium@leminal.space 7 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

I'm not defending Microsoft. They're a soulless corporation releasing an ad around a holiday where a lot of people have time off and recently received gift cards and spending cash. I don't think them paying for an artist one time when they hope to use AI for a majority of their throwaway adverts really matters.

This is such a pointlessly smarmy comment.

This is why we need a rule that if you incorporate your logo into AI art, your logo becomes public domain.

[-] Natanael@slrpnk.net 12 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

This is technically already legal precedence in USA, copyright requires human expression and without sufficient human creative control in ML generated works they're effectively public domain

Edit: why downvotes?

[-] hperrin@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Yes, for the imagery itself, but their logo is still under trademark. What I’m saying is if you put your logo on AI generated imagery and release it to the public, you no longer own a trademark for your logo.

[-] Natanael@slrpnk.net 4 points 8 months ago

That's not how courts are going to treat it. Public domain (lack of) licensing is not "infectious". Instead you can just cut out the trademark and reuse ML images because under current legal precedence they're in public domain but the trademark isn't

[-] hperrin@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

I understand that. I’m saying I want to change that.

[-] Natanael@slrpnk.net 4 points 8 months ago

Good luck with that

[-] danielbln@lemmy.world 7 points 8 months ago
[-] Kbobabob@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

I'm guessing so the maintainers of the AI don't have to worry about copyright when it uses the logo somewhere unexpected. But I'm curious what OP says.

[-] woelkchen@lemmy.world 22 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

They have their own Bing Image Creator. Obviously they'd prefer to use their own tool instead of hiring artists. Everyone with two working brain cells saw this coming. (I'm not defending it, it was just obvious the day Bing Image Creator was launched.)

[-] echo64@lemmy.world 11 points 8 months ago

AI art is always so immediately obvious. I understand the temptation. Oh wow, I can jazz up this throw-away post that no one really cares about.

But everyone that sees that post immediately notes oh its ai art again. Because our brains are picking up on all the details. So it kind of defeats and distracts from the point.

There might be ways of encorporating ai generated images into things, but it's not gonna be by just generating an image with a prompt and running with that as your main graphic.

[-] Daxtron2@startrek.website 20 points 8 months ago

I guarantee you've seen AI generated images that you didn't know were AI. It's survivorship bias, you're only seeing the ones that are bad as immediately AI.

[-] Lekip 9 points 8 months ago

Never say never. I wouldn't be too sure whether or not it remains obvious when AI is being used, and for how long. Right now though it's definitely nothing that should be used as a final result. Really good way to get inspiration for moods and motives though

[-] MysticKetchup@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

I don't think it's even good as inspiration, since it pretty much always just ends up looking fairly generic. Better to spend some time crawling the internet for more interesting and unique inspo

[-] Lekip 8 points 8 months ago

No offense, but I strongly disagree. For an initial inspiration sure, arch daily is still my go-to as well. But once you have some idea of what you want to propose to a client it's honestly been a gamechanger to me. Much easier to get specific using prompts instead of searching some tags hoping someone already made, photographed, uploaded and tagged what you are looking for. In terms of how generic it is; so is most of the stuff on say Pinterest. I think it's how you combine and implement what you find/generate. No matter the process. At the agency I work at AI image generation has been a great tool for the past half year. The release of Midjourney 4 made it viable for us, although I prefer StableDiffusion. Either way, I would not want to miss it.

[-] Cybersteel@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

It's gonna be an eventuality as the technology gets better. AI made games coded by AI, art assets drawn by AI and stories written by AI. The only thing that might protect developers would be new laws against this. Unfortunately, if legislators didn't help protect horse drawn carriage drivers back then, they sure as shit won't help protect us artist now. I can forsee that the only ones being able to afford buying AI made games, other AIs. With humans being delegated to doing hard labour earning pennies on the dime. AI is inevitable.

[-] bunnyfc@kbin.social 3 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

it's ironic, since AI generated always looks polished - but the identification is mostly context-based i.e. we know nobody would pay anyone for making that illustration from scratch: because it's a throw-away

illustrations will be ubiquitous but mostly shit, only the shit will be more polished

so if an illustration is highly polished but otherwise garbage, it's AI with high probability - because the craftsmanship of the generator exceeds the artistic taste and development of the user

Just as much love as Microsoft shows the rest of Xbox
