I hope AI image gen lovers realize you are asking for a future of empty colorful pixels you will feel numb to and scroll past without an internal conversation with the human creator or imagining the human hand - which are the only reasons art has been appreciated in all history.
I fully believe that some day we will ask “what happened” as we lose all connections with other humans in the trade off for speed, profit, convenience. Maybe the pills will keep us smiling.

boo hoo hoo 😭 in your imaginative perspective, human ability to write text became obsolete when computer learned how to write logs(before AI). Artist paved the way for AI, themselves doing 1 red stroke on canvas and selling it for 1mln $ without any sense. Embrace the future.
@NightblueArt
Its not in the future, its really happening now, every time I see AI sh*t i just scroll passed down without even trying to look what its about because i know that its something scummy use of ai generated images.
@NightblueArt
Unfortunately, I don't think the majority of them actually take part in any artistic communication to begin with. They purely look at what they get from their little search engine so they can stroke their ego about it. Other humans are irrelevant to their living experiences.
@NightblueArt
They’re going to saturate the market with derivative trash, the audience will lose interest, and it’s going to crash all their low effort products. I know cause it’s happened before…
@NightblueArt
I still remember one of the most powerful and sort of spiritual moments in my life was looking at an Aegyptian figurine in a museum in Berlin and having the intense thought that THAT was MADE by A PERSON over 3000 years ago... it even had fingerprints on the clay. Just WOW...
@NightblueArt
The average person doesn't really care about how art, in any form, is made. They just want to be able to consume it. The corporations who will profit from AI in all forms know this well, and will be able to pay out hefty bonuses to executives while workers are out of work.
@NightblueArt
You don't think that happens now? With the glut of places posting and reposting fanart, I don't think too many people spend much time studying art for the particulars. It's glance, "cool," and on to the next. I'm guilty of it myself:(
@NightblueArt
With art there has allways been human connection but with generators that could all go away..but if people still prefer the generator over the actual artistic process they don't like creating they just want fast derivitive content to consume
@NightblueArt
Human-created works are a treasure. They're organic and always have a story. Could you imagine people talking about an AI image in a gallery? "I wonder what the machine was feeling when it auto-generated this one" 🤦♂️

@merilwenart
People will always appreciate human made work. By this same reasoning no one would want hand crafted furniture and only ikea stuff. All the woodworkers local here are booked out for years they are so in demand.
@NightblueArt
I do occasional art shows and %99 of the people who buy my art are the ones who talked to me and got to know me. They are interested in the mind behind the art, the life and experiences. This is why AI is not “art” it is just an image.
