The process of creating is crucial to learning and growing as an artist. You make discoveries, have revelations, come up with new approaches, techniques, ideas. The process is something most artists enjoy and value deeply. If it feels like 'mundane drudgery,' ask yourself why.
You do realized that everyone has different opinions on what they enjoy and what they don't, right? For example, I consider writing some boilerplate code as mindless drudgery but I enjoy coding. AI has actually done quite a lot for me in terms of studying, coding, etc. Saves me time which I can use to focus on other things. Not everyone enjoys the same things as you and you have to accept that. I used to enjoy drawing but I don't draw anymore. One can enjoy art but at the same time, consider some of it drudgery.
@Rahll You'll achieve success when you steal from other artists because all great. great. artists. STEAL.
You know what I find funny, its the fact that the very same arguments used against AI, have been used again digital artists in general over the last 25 or so years. AI is a tool. Just like a paint brush is a tool, just like photoshop is a tool, just like gimp (my preferred app) is a tool. AI artists learn and grow over time, their technique change, their art gets better. I find trying to come up with creative and descriptive ways to describe art to be mundane drugery but I see no harm in others do it. Any argument about "theft of art" is nonsensical unless you are identifying a specific AI site, model, or tool, because AI in general can be trained on anything the creator wants to train it with, so it can't be a universal truth that AI artwork is a violation of any copywritten work. I have used ai tools to learn how they work. I have compiled my own AI models and trained things locally. I have used some of these AI creations in my own digital creations, others I have used as inspirations for creations. Overall I don't use AI but I am not anti AI. In the same way this person considers tradition digital art tools as mundane drudgery I consider prompting mondain drudgery. Both things can be true and one still be an artist. If an author and a poet is an artist in their own right, how is them turning their words into creations through AI any less of being an artist?
@Rahll AI tools are actually removing your creativity @bilawalsidhu whatever original thought you might have had was destroyed the second AI ran it through its algorithm and pumped out someone else's idea
@Rahll you think the process is unique to hand tooling and work taking forever? The whole world got empowered to create and you think it’s not boring and slow enough…
@Rahll People like this thinks they're making gourmet meals out of mixing and matching frozen microwavables. Worst of all they're leaving instructions for someone else to do it then tells everyone he's a chef.
@Rahll This is the part that drives me so bananas. The final image bores me. I love being in the middle of creating it, working things out, getting frustrated, changing my mind, and all the rest. That's where all the good stuff happens. These guys miss all that. 👎
