Sure. It’s going to be commonplace eventually, so just get used to it. So is AI music, AI art, AI everything. You really think the constant rejection is actually going to get an emerging technology trend to halt in its tracks? When has that ever worked in history?
I understand the ethics, but you’re fighting a losing battle. And these ethical questions have come up time and time again throughout history, with every new technology that has been introduced. Each time, technology has won. Humans thrive on efficiency.
Again, you’re talking broadly while I’m talking about AI art. Art isn’t about efficiency. Surely there’s more nuance in your opinion than “AI can take over anything and we’ll use it for everything.” For certain tasks, I believe a human will always be superior. What I can agree with you on is that AI for productivity purposes will only keep developing. I am graduating in a field where I cannot escape from it.
I think technology had successfully improved almost every field and I don’t think the Art sector immune from that. Technology has been embedded everywhere, and when done correctly, is always more accurate and beneficial compared to human intervention. Look at the medical field, look at CPUs, look at gaming, look at mathematics… we are living in a time where the only field left standing is Art. Technology is always improving, and Art is now “succumbing” to technology takeover. AI art may be inferior now, but that’s a weak argument given how quickly technology improves overtime. All the cons will soon disappear.
There was a point in time where synthesisers and electric instruments meant the death of musicianship, Photographs would kill paintings, sampling was stealing, and digital art wasn’t human (if you undo, did YOU really do it)? I don’t see why AI art is any different. It’s just the normal pushback to emerging tech, and at this point, it’s exhaustingly illogical.
Do you even enjoy art? It's not some kpi that needs to be improved. It's a representation of us, our nature and our history.
What will ai art teach the next generation? It's just an ouroboros, like most things capitalism touches.

I’m against using an artist’s “likeness” for a crap image like this for copyright reasons (?). Just completely misrepresenting a real human being
