I dont understand the purity tests we are putting artists through

AI is just a tool. It can be used correctly to assist in making a gopd product, or a lazy artist can make slop (a lazy artist will produce slop, regardless)

If its wrong to use AI to make filler material, then is speedtree wrong for allowing environmental artists to take a shortcut and not have to hand craft every tree in their game world?

like, minus all the plagarism and energy use issues. If wr are speaking strictly of artistic integrity or whatever, i dont see the problem in using AI to assist artists (as opposed to outright replacing them)

Pretty sure that’s the primary thing everyone takes issue with. If you removed that most people wouldn’t have as big of a problem with it. There is still a social issue at play in terms of the potential damage generative AI can do to the job market with no real safety nets or long term consideration for the consequences to society and the economy, but most people aren’t even getting that far.

  Yeah I think if you removed like…
  
  The theft and plagiarism
  
  The privacy infringements
  
  The government bribes
  
  The massive energy costs that are leaving people at a risk for blackouts
  
  The environmental destruction in the areas the datacentres operate
  
  The complete disregard for the health of the people living around the datacentres
  
  The constant lying in an attempt to pump up stocks and grab as much money as possible before nuking the economy
  
  The creepy-ass plans to institute an authoritarian techno-dystopia
  
  Whatever else I’ve missed on the list
  
  I’d be a lot more positive about it.

I love how “don’t break the rules and lie about it when entering a contest” is a purity test, now. Y’all are fucking wild.

Seems silly to require ALL the unit tests pass, too, cut them some slack. /s

I don’t think there is any problem with using AI art as a placeholder until the real art is ready.

I also don’t think there is any problem with being disqualified from a competition that says “No AI Art” for doing so.
