Apparently, teens who find #AIArt cringe have started calling it "boomer art" (because the community interested in it largely consists of older people).
I think that's actually pretty hilarious. Social and economic implications aside, I never liked the look of #AI #art myself - the contours of most pieces I saw looked fake, and the composition of elements has no real meaning behind it. It really only exists to visually wow the viewer.

For me personally, it gives me a chance to realize my creativity when I otherwise would not be able to, as a disabled man with ADHD and hydrocephalus, my hands don't work as good as others.

I agree it's not as good looking as human-drawn art, but I assure you, most of my AI art definitely has meaning to it.

@BeAware The big difference is that most of the "AI art" posted doesn't have any kind of modification from the prompt generated.

It helps with understanding the concept, or atleast giving you a direction on what you want to do, but ultimately it's NOT a finished product, while these guys go around pretending that a prompt just is a final piece of "art".

@Inbetween Well, I literally can't. However, I'm also not making any money off of my little hobby.🤷‍♂️

@BeAware Which is to say, it's like the BIGGEST PROBLEM EVER with using GAI.

I want to convey an idea or show off what I have in my mind and I lack the skills/capacity/time/whatever? Go ahead, look at this.

I want to grab your money with something an AI generated based on NO ONE KNOWS how much stolen art?
Yeah, well, that's troubling...

@BeAware It has meaning insofar that it uses images created by real artists (which do have meaning) to create new ones. Real artists also use works of other artists as inspiration for their own, but since the spectator views the subject through a different lens than the creator, they naturally add their own "flavor" to it. This isn't the case for AI art - it takes elements from a large amount of pictures and then rearranges them.

@BeAware It's essentially like making copies of other people's art, cutting out pieces of them, and sticking them back together. The AI might be able to identify the "theme" behind them, but it can't actually comprehend the meaning itself.
That's what I actually meant to say by this - sorry if it came off wrong. I do, however, understand the concern of people wanting to make art who can't draw with their hands (I have issues with my fine motor skills, and I've never been good at drawing).

@BeAware I really wish there was some way to make it possible for disabled people to make art that doesn't involve breaching copyright. Perhaps if there was something like a technology that makes it possible to draw with your mind instead of your hands (like moving a digital brush with your thoughts). However, somebody would have to invent that first...

Yep, and as of right now, that obviously doesn't exist so I work with what I have. I wouldn't mind paying for art if I had "pay for art" money. However, the US disability system allows almost no room in income for hobbies. We're just supposed to sit around all day and wait to die, I guess.😩
