Recently it has come to my attention and after watching, reading and inspecting a lot of content regarding the Rise of AI Art that the future will apparently change forever when it comes to creative mediums,
It was already a huge step to move from canvas painting of people and being paid to do so to transition to photography and later on from professional photography to move to accessible and wide-spread pocket-affordable cameras which come included in our multitool box.
That being said, art just like photography is not going anywhere and it has to be mentioned that it will simply move to a commodity,
Some of the predictions to be made is that companies will start hiring people who are well versed in both art as well as tech so they can produce high quality products in a reasonable amount of time, that being said, experience and knowledge can never be replaced as such.
When it comes to creative freedom there comes a golden lining where a once hobby becomes a Job and unpleasant that may be, based on what has been seen so far I concluded that this is the only single component that is being replaced by the current advent of AI Tech (Machine Learning Tech to be more accurate).
Seeing anyone use AI will be a clear sign of them feeling unpleasant about any given task that they have assigned to the AI, any part of the process.
For example I may dislike doing Topology on a 3D Program and prefer to do Texturing, Modeling, or Sculpting.
Either way, those said tasks seem to be there because of necessity and with the advent of AI they will be replaced, a Human will be adding their personal soul into what they love and the AI will take it the rest of the way which the individual seems to be having unpleasant time with.
That begs the question, why not band people together and have their creative passions collage a final product? Well that is the point here isn't it? That is what we already sort of do with sub professions.
We can assume that ML Systems such as AI will replace us and that may be philosophically scary, we know that most of society would tell us that when a Job goes down another one rises and takes its place, however that is not as true due to the rapid development and growth of those replacing factors and combining with the inability of certain systems to create a "Utopia" that is economically independent.
Either way, these are some thoughts to ponder.
Now people may assume that the attention to detail or the precision is very low and may imagine machines messing up, but unlike humans, machines do not give up simply because they are tired, eventually technology which is driven by human intellect will rise above the common expectations and it already does,
Along the way here are some of the creations I have generated so far, these are fully generated:
There are a lot of things lately that need to be sorted out such as Intellectual Property of said images and so on, the first order came along to decide that the images are carrying along the "open-source" nature of the model itself, however we have to also take into account whether or not the AI was fed copyrighted information or not and while it may not be a legal plagiarism, it still holds risks, at least for the company which contributed to the model creation.
Plagiarism is happening all across media and even in universities if you are to ask a professor they will not answer right-away how to avoid plagiarism or how to copyright a good idea because obviously you cannot.
In art classes I was taught that tampering with an image enough will actually make it okay by rights based on the contribution, of course it is all a case-by-case and we are not advising anything here.
Either way, this is a pivital point and the worst of it is often overlooked, anyone can create an AI Model of their own now and it automaticall becomes open-source which is a big problem, especially considering what is being shared, if you navigate over at the civit website you will see what I mean, there is a lot of material to leave one hopeless regarding humanity, the site is not moderated and some of the material accessible there can be considered illegal to some degree, not because of plagiarism but because of obviously uncensored (often disturbing) material being distributed.
Either way this wave will create an oversaturation which will actually lead us to appreciate the real artistry, we can create furniture in factories yet a skilled craftsman somewhere in Japan or Italy is always appreciated highly and paid more than a machine to produce something original.
No one asked someone to create sculptures out of pencil tips and yet there is one such artist who does exactly that, those people get attention and of course this becomes part of their uniqueness.
My Stance on the matter is that things are inevitable, we may Push against the current but as we all know, the current will wash us away, the current in this case is the collective.
We are to be humble and allow for change to come along with its consequences and the best we are to do in such situations is adapt, something that humans are able to do effectively for generations, flexibility is in this case the winning factor.
Thanks for reading so far, my articles usually have a generic theme and little purpose so thank you for taking the time to read thus far, if you made it till the end you may want to consider a comment or similar.
Have a wonderful rest of the day!
