Selling A.I. Art is cruddy...

 

Prompt colorful scumbag

    Art from Midjourney, Dall-E, Stable Diffusion, etc. has been in debate in recent times. These machine learning algorithms have studied art from well-known artists. Should they not be credited? People are selling A.I. art on sites like Etsy. Oh, it's nice to look at. The work has been created using a soulless algorithm. Folks who actually make artistic stuff have to compete with this crud. A.I. art can flood the market. People will pay attention to that art too. No doubt. Why pull at the strings of artistic integrity? That only solidifies the issues with using machine learning algorithms to make images because there will always be people who will take the least resistance and exploit stuff. Using A.I. for recreational, educational, or personal use is fine. Commercial use of A.I. is shady. At least transform it. Don't go to Craiyon.com, type a prompt for wood textures, and sell the images that the A.I. produces. Do people even want all those imperfections in the A.I.'s work? A.I. is never the problem, but those with the wrong intentions are. May these people make their own artwork.


    There is a zing or a zest, depending on how potent it is. Images from these neural networks are impressive in how they imitate life and human work, such as photography and the media arts. Once you put that to work, all of that special presentation becomes unraveled to see the industrial products that it is. What art is it in that? The A.I. images should be treated like scrap wood. If untransformed, it may not have value because it was made with little expense by the person who is trying to sell it. In a capitalistic society, the product should be able to be the most indistinguishable from its competition, or you might just plagiarize. If the people you are selling the images to can do the same thing, where is the value? If the image is unique, it was by chance, for the A.I. is tasked with making the images from a set of data, and it is picking from what it was fed, and then it puts what data it understands together in a picture. An algorithm can never try. It can only piece together the data that the person requested that it know. Whatever the result, it varies. Those highly impressionable results are from people before approving the result that resemble rational imagery, and not that person with the prompt. Humans don't "generate" like machines, for man and woman put their minds and souls into something beyond studying a set of images.
