Comment on OpenAI’s new AI image generator pushes the limits in detail and prompt fidelity
MysticKetchup@lemmy.world 1 year agoNah that Guardians of the Galaxy art is exactly what I’m talking about. It makes basic mistakes even a child could point out and looks more long a knockoff. And refining it is just rolling the dice to get a better result, whereas an artist you can actually give feedback they can understand.
The game assets look a little better, but if you look carefully you’ll notice that they don’t tile correctly. It’s 90% there but the last 10% is the hardest part and it’s important especially for large projects and not just single static images. Not too mention they look generic as fuck, you’re not going to get the next Hollow Knight or Darkest Dungeon with an amazing original style from AI, you’re only going to get existing styles mashed together. The more specific the vision for the artstyle the harder it will be to generate it.
Also the idea of a Tiktok feed of AI generated content is exactly why I hate AI art. Sure, go ahead and use it to help existing artists generate cheap assets that would otherwise be random brush strokes. But replacing them? The idea that AI generated slop will have anything close to the quality and meaning of even cheap art is ridiculous. Why would anyone want that when they could have actual art made by real people, more of which exists today than anyone could go through in their entire life?

You are missing the bigger picture: This took SECONDS, no effort on my part and it was a first try, using technology that was a little less than three years ago at this stage. I can generate new images on any topic I want, instantly. This stuff is already incredible today and is getting better rapidly.
Meanwhile here are examples of glorious human art:
Human art is full of mistakes. The best of the best human art has “quality and meaning”, the average not really. Stuff like “Somehow, Palpatine returned” was written by humans. There is a lot of garbage that slips through, even in project that have so much money that there is really no excuse. I’ll take a few additional AI generated fingers, that are trivial to fix, over that trash.
Netflix is already running personalized thumbnails, not with AI, but that’s exactly the kind of stuff I expect AI to be used for real soon, if it isn’t already in some capacity.
Nobody cares about who makes the art outside of some art historians. Every movie, TV show or game has dozens or even hundreds of people involved, you have no idea who was responsible for what or what was going on behind the scenes. All you see is the result and you either like it or you don’t. “The Death of the Author” and all that.
