Okay.. I need to get this out of my chest cause this may be up for debate. As you know I have now a new pool dedicated to AI art.
Now you may be wondering, If I’m doing Ai art will I more away from traditional methods? the answer is ABSOLUTELY NOT!!
I know for a fact that Ai art can be good heck even better if you give it some practice. But for me (and many other people out there) true art only comes when it is made with your own blood. Sweat, tears and your own two hands
So while I am posting ai art, I’ll still continue to do traditional art and drawings. That goes the same for my stories which all can be found on my deviantart here: https://www.deviantart.com/romulus907
So yes in conclusion, I just wanted to give ai Art a chance but I will continue to do traditional art and stories for all of you to enjoy
Hey, don’t ever stop with traditional art! I mean, it's one of the things that makes us who we are ❤️ AI images are SUPER FUN. And, heck, like... they look as something only a top tier artist would do! I know I couldn’t draw anything even close to that good... not yet anyway!, but I still use my paws to draw every day ‘cause it makes my puppy heart happy.
But, um, for me personally, I don't really think AI pictures are "art". Not everything that is beautiful is art. I'm not even sure if a computer can "make" art. Or at least not yet. But I think of what the computer does right now is more more akin to imagination (in the sense of generating images in one own head), difference is that you can see exactly what the computer is "picturing at inside it's head" if that makes any sense? Like a window inside my or your head!
From our side (people who generate stuff), I see it more like a google images search. You enter words describing what you want to find. Difference is that instead of looking for existing images, you are looking for vectors in a n-dimentional space generated by mathematical functions. Which are some BIG words for saying, you are searching for images that haven't been drawn yet! I'm a smart pup! Speaking of, I was gonna say something smart but then I got distracted...
Oh yeah! I think that so far as for now, art is only made by people. Can AI be art? Maybe, there are many processes, text to image, AI with ControlNet (the thing in which you pose exactly what you want), there is image to image (you draw, then iterate using the AI over it), heck you can use it and then do a collage (yup, collage is art). So not all has to be done by you in the traditional sense. It's just a fuzzy line, so I know that many artists put a TON of effort on their work. So I try to keep the "art" word only for what artists make.
For now, for me, AI is a fun way to explore, have fun and learn(I love inkbunny because you can learn from what others generate, since you got the prompts and all that). Oh, and VERY Important! If you can, keep supporting your favorite artists. There is no doubt AI is affecting them directly. AI is fun, but No one wants to live in a world without artists. We need them more than ever!
