--- Quote ---I worked in a radio station hand-in-hand with the station's program director as a computer programmer responsible for generating playlists, so I KNOW this. You ASSUMED it. --- End quote --- I know it as well. Why do you think I assumed it? Is it because you are a giant ---meecrob--- nozzle? The answer is yes. Oh. And whenever you are tempted to use the phrase "Few know this...", just know that it means you are going to look like a giant ---uvula---. |

| Mike A:
Let's use Randy logic on this statement. Only people with direct knowledge can know anything. Randy knows how things look to a turd. Randy must be a turd. I think I have got the hang of this now. Thanks Randy. |

--- Quote from: RandyT on September 21, 2022, 10:01:18 am ---Greg Rutkowski... --- End quote --- I had to look this guy up :D Fantasy, dragons n heroes n stuff. Cool. I see his style has been exploited by AI art algorithms, and he fights back. Good on him. Copyright is an important issue. Can you copyright a style? I used to paint D&D figurines and was pretty good. No time for it now though. Doing a single figure (properly) could easily take a full day. --- Quote ---But as for the art itself, I think some out there aren't seeing the true potential for what they have been given. Artists can now do a fairly complete simulation of an art idea before ever laying pencil to paper, and that in only a few minutes. After about an hour, they could be presented with 100 potential compositions for that idea to choose from... --- End quote --- Yes. This is what I meant, a while back on this thread, when I said --- Quote ---the AI is simply another artist's tool, like a paintbrush, spraygun or potter's wheel. --- End quote --- Some artists will struggle, but if all they were doing was painting pine trees against mountains and lakes then I don't think that anybody is really losing anything. --- Quote ---I can imagine that at some point in the near future, mostly average people will look at a painting in someone's collection and say to the owner "Is that a real Rutkowski?... Wow!" :) --- End quote --- An original painting isn't really 2D. If you look closely you can see the brushstrokes, the paint built up by layers. Even the backing canvas, mistakes, framing... You don't have to be Sherlock Holmes. I guess these things can be faked too, but it takes a lot of effort and experts can still tell the difference. Digital waterprinting and related security become more important here, especially for digitally produced art. Then you have the problem where the AI doesn't really get the artist's style and/or techniques right. Friend showed me an AI Monet few weeks back and, while I recognised that it emulated the Monet style, it was wrong.The blobs of colour were too far apart, not "colliding" with each other. There was not enough of the intricate little background details I expect from Monet, even in a "still life". That, and I doubted that Monet would ever paint a cat. Least not that particular cat. I will leave you to enjoy one of my favourite paintings of mountains, trees and waterways. No pine trees. |
