Artificial Intelligence - Will A.I. replace Artists?
Added 2023-10-01 22:09:20 +0000 UTCI recently reported on Twitter that Artwork I created was being stolen and just sloppily recreated through an A.I. It's not the first time that happened and it will not be the last time. I'm sure bigger Artists have to see this on a daily basis.
I've got many interesting viewpoints under that Tweet and since Twitter doesn't let me
ramble on and on about things, I think it's time to write another blog article here regarding my thoughts on A.I.
Personally, I find Artificial Intelligence intriguing. I like what can be done with it when used as an assisting medium. Helping in programming, faster searches for answers, and well...I guess you can use it for your math homework?
I wonder if there was any controversy when calculators got invented. Well, calculators don't do the whole progress for you, and aren't allmighty either. You need to know what you do to make a calculator work for you. And here's where A.I. changes things.
Sure, to generate a picture, you need to know how to use prompts correctly, you have to recreate Images multiple times and enhance them until they look good and maybe that can take a while. But there is one difference. Experience.
A beginner Artist can sit 300 Hours on an Illustration. After a certain amount of time passes, the Illustration won't change significantly anymore. You won't get better. You may have to train years, maybe decades to get to that point where A.I. is right now, the point where A.I can generate something on a very high level in seconds.
But here's why I think, A.I. will not replace Artists and the Art they create nor will it really steal any worth from high quality Artwork drawn by humans. Even if no one regulates it, if there will never be rules for A.I. use, if it's abused to steal, transform and sell Art, it will not win.
Let me reach back a bit and say what I think about the current state of Humanity and how the Entertainment Industry is one of, if not the best paid market in the world.
We live in a world where even kids as old as 6-7 years can get depressed, burned out,
suffer from extreme stress and even show symptoms similar to a midlife crisis. Why that happens should be clear. Society as a whole really pushes us to deliver.
Just passing school isn't enough anymore, you should study, and even then you may not get an employment. The world is connected, and while that's a good thing, now you get to feel sad when something happens literally on the other side of the world, because now you're part of it. People tell you how you should travel, eat, behave and treat others. The more you know, the more you will suffer, because it's good to know more, to get educated, but it also shows you how wrong you've been living. There's so much more, but I guess you understand.
How do people combat this load of burdensome info? Entertainment. Distractions and diversions. Some will take drugs, other will use other means of entertainment. A.I is not at that point yet, but in the future, it will be used to create more means of Entertainment. Today it's Art, but in a few years it will create complete Anime, Games, Movies and further along the line it will be able to invent completely new things.
Speaking about economy, those with money will subsidize A.I. to the maximum. They want A.I. as unregulated as possible because it can print out money. Why commission an Artist, when A.I. can do perfect Artworks for 10% of the price in way less time? People will be able to see and buy Art for a cheap price because it can be endlessly generated. But it's cheaply made, even if it can look good.
But that's not where it ends. I want to make a sloppy comparison to the food industry.
You can get Meat, fruit, vegetables, nearly anything for way cheaper than it should be. It's extra cheap so most people can somehow afford it. But quality food does also exist and it's more expensive then ever.
The market will soon become saturated with A.I. art, and people will grow tired of it. Those that buy cheap Art would not have bought your quality Art in the first place, because they don't have the money and most likely don't even understand Art.
With an even more saturated market it will get harder to be noticed, but also people will have an even stronger connection to a human artist than before, because they now know, how much more worth that is.
Many of that is of course speculation, but seeing how supportive actual people are of Art, it does make sense. Like mentioned at the beginning of this, I see the most potential of A.I. as a companionpiece, helping to create, while you do the creative part, like giving you better managment over layers, helping to remember and choosing the right painting tool, reverting back to a certain step and even giving you ideas that YOU will work out. But we'll only see how that develops in the future.
P.S.: ....I'm safe anyway because A.I. sucks at drawing feet, AHAHAHAHA....
