I’ve seen some videos completely AI generated that looked flawless yesterday. Every day I feel more and more uncertain I’ll ever find a job again in the industry.
It’s funny how in most old scifi they showed a future where we as a society had AI working labor intensive jobs but art was a human-only activity. I guess we didn’t account for how bad capitalism was going to overpower our value.
I think artists like Andy Warhol and Jackson Pollock have done a lot to preserve the humanity of art. For Andy, he would never need an AI to generate a soup can. Even if he did it’s Andys commentary and perspective that is coveted. The same is true of the most intricate paintings or sculptures and their creators. Jackson showed us the act of making art is just as interesting as the art itself. An AI could pop out a million abstract pieces that looked exactly like a Pollock but… it will never be a Pollock. AI is no more a threat to art and the people who make art than the camera was.
As of now, here is no humanoid AI robot replacing manual labor, just trained AI software/tools/APIs that run on computers and perform some specific and somewhat complex tasks.

The movement that attacked machines because it was replacing manual labour is from 1811

The first image’s caption is : Robots doing heavy lifting work that was previously done by human worker
Let me put it big letters the part that you missed:
humanoid AI
So for it to fit your description, the social changes impacting technology have to clock into work like a dinosaur from the Flintstones, and look like Rosie from the Jetsons, otherwise, automation of manual labor has no impact on society and social dynamics
You mean the generated anime scene stuff? Those DO use sketch frames made by a real artist who then uses AI to combine t he em into animation!
AI may be a crapshoot but it loves being given physical guidance. Don’t tell it to draw a person, sketch a person and then tell the AI to turn that into a person.
Basic photoshop skills do work wonders. The better you are at art, the happier the AI will be to co-operate.

No, I don’t think I’ve seen that one unless it’s the corridor crew one, which to be fair still had a ton of work- but, no traditional animation though.
I mean photorealistic stuff. And while it’s still not exactly at the same level of quality a studio can produce, the rate at which it’s progressing is jawdropping. It’s already rough getting an artistic job at a studio; in five years from now I’d be surprised if those jobs aren’t at least halved thanks to AI. Because as you said, AI cooperates really well.

That’s not really unique, is it. Tech has always been working to increase output for a given unit of work or money. Animators used to sketch and record every frame. Then famous animators made key frames and outsourced 80% to sweatshops. Now you can animate scenes by layer and by object on your computer. I do have concerns about nefarious use (regarding both material and employment replacement) but this isn’t a distinct AI issue, it’s a normal greed issue with a new scapegoat
Meanwhile, art creates by humans:
Hey, that’s solid art
Not for long.

I see he is very excited for that pizza
Tbf, I’d also be pretty excited if I could take a slice from a pizza and still somehow have a full pizza. Infinite pizza hack.
I hate to break it to you, but nothings going in to that mouth. More like going out.
HE is the infinite source of pizza
:O
the bugs and roadkill give it extra protein.
You also get to grow hands out of your forearms
it’s just so big and girthy.
What’s going on with this guys elephant-man cock?
It’s actually just the tip. It’s all tip.
Fucking huge tip tho.
Worst case of mushroom cock ever documented.
He leans on it, don’t you see? That’s his lean-knee-wee-nee.
This image is actually really compelling.
Daamn he packin
Weirdly enough this is a terrible example. I kinda like it (but for all the wrong reasons)
It’s… It’s beautiful.
the last temptation of the crust
We will become crabs eventually. We will also keep pizza. I see this as a prophecy.
I could make the same meme but swap AI and real artist and as an example of the “real artist art” use my drawings (and I’m like really bad at drawing). It would make as much sense as this meme. But I can’t really tell if it’s some AI art hater meme or just a meme. I sometimes see people meaning memes similar to this deadly serious, so sorry if I’m being a nitpick.
AI art be like
Where’s the head?
On the shaft.
“I call this move the Marylin Manson”
(yes, it was a hoax)
The fact that one AI generated image looks incoherent or shitty doesn’t mean that all AI generated images are.
deleted by creator
A lot of them are like that and that’s actually a good thing.
It’ll be a little while before people can generate photographs that are indistinguishable from the real thing, completely destroying our ability to critically evaluate anything.
So we still have time to stop it.
People can already, one has even won a contest.
You can use offline image generation tools like Stable Diffusion if you have a powerful enough machine. Also, if someone generates an incoherent image and keeps it, it’s mostly for the sake of it, because you can try generating the image over and over again until something good comes out while tweaking the prompt and the negative prompt.
Man, my faith in humanity meter keeps dropping and dropping and dropping with every little thing I see on Lemmy today. Can we get some good news, please?
Honest question, how old are you?
