Gregory's Server@Natanox π Oh yes, it's a big chance. I can't wait to storytell more and paint less tedious part of art that can be automated. (part in backgrounds, or anything a super Ai assistant could help). I already absorbed in my workflow digital-painting when it was fresh and new, 3D model paint-over, photobashing paint-over, and I'll reserve the same treatment for Ai assisted painting. I understand the one who are against; probably a mind set that put all innovations as a risk.

 Yes, the dataset is an issue, and generated art can be also infriging copyright holders (eg. no idea what Disney might think about https://lexica.art/?q=disney ) . Artist are suspicious that the dataset already use large part of Artstation and DeviantArt. For ArtStation; Epic Games boot it not long ago, and of course have a license on all the art here. That could make them in position of offering a commercial tool that use 'Ai' with their database. @davidrevoy @Natanox another story of big companies using free labor to consolidate their position of power⦠i do hope we will get a healthy space of open datasets and constructive use of machine learning in art.  @davidrevoy I see. Given backgrounds are / can be more abstract anyway it's really handy indeed. Especially with Stable Diffusion where you can give it a really rough version of a landscape to add all the details etc. I guess people are simply scared as always, like when books, radio, movies, 5G etc. came around. |
@davidrevoy @Natanox My worries with AI in the art space are mainly that so many tools are incredibly proprietary but are marketed as open. Not to mention that we mostly donβt know how much of the data that went into a dataset was taken without consent. That stable diffusion is seemingly openly available is a good trend, though, and using it as assistance or inspiration seems to have lots of potential.
