yah i guess you could make visual novels and some stuff with only ai generated content. but your not going to get animated characters, functional pixel art, or much that is coherent. atleast i have not gotten after spending hours playing with different algorithms.
and i bet there are grannies out there trying to make games. atleast i hope so.
but to put real artists out of work? i dont think so. the way these algorithms work is imitative. if real people stop making real art then the algorithms will have nothing new to imitate.
my biggest issue is that i believe the datasets that these algorithms use (and from a tech perspective, the ai algorithm and training dataset are two separate things) are stealing from artists. just because someone posted their painting on artstation or somesuch, does not give tech-bros in the "disruption" industry the right to put their work, without permission or credit, in a training dataset. the art that is created from that dataset is a derivative work of stolen art.
ai art is cool. it is also cool to be able to play old retro games without owning the original cartridge, or to use public roadways but not pay taxes. "cool" does not make right or legal.
i think it is most useful for "sketching" out concepts and ideas. produce game ready art? i have spent numerous hours playing with multiple different ai art algorithms, researched and tested prompt engineering, and i have never generated anything that was useful to me out of the box with no editing needed on my part.
on your topic subject though, is AI gonna be the end of artists? i don't think so.
it's another tool. a tool that can be used to make concept art quickly.
freelance concept artists aren't owed the opportunity to make art as a job.
however, concept artists whose art has been scraped without their permission are owed at least credit for their work being part of the dataset used to produce AI art. in my opinion they are owed much more, but we have probably discussed this ad nauseum at this point.
heh, when i saw this in the discord feed i immediately knew whose it was. your style is distinct and awesome, and your muted-pastel-ish palette really works well.
i had never heard of your mindcramps model editor, i am checking it out now, seems interesting.
thats very nifty
how much prodding and prompt tweaking did it take for you to get that poem? did it just spit it out as is?

they look cool

your stuff is so cool
oh snap. immediate mother 1 / earthbound zero vibes.
me likes
ai generated art does produce results that look alot like photobashing.

these keep on getting better sevarihk!
nice!
the game is good too!
