I foresee super quick closure of almost all graphic artists in a closed and heavily moderated pay per view/use communities. Or they will simply starve. This so called A"I" producing a ton a derivative art will mess up a lot of industries.
- ronsor 4y agoIf they stay in a closed pay-per-view environment, I have a feeling most of them will definitely starve then. Technology has messed up industries before. Everyone's not going to die.
- TMWNN 4y agoI believe Yizahi is talking about pornographic furries art, which is (from what I understand) a very lucrative market for artists (regardless of their personal disgust of the subject).
- Yizahi 4y agoWe are observing a live example in the OP right now. If you are an artist working in some specific style, then even a small dataset (just 30 images in the OP) will render future works much less desired. Of course big companies have compliance rules, reputation and so on, so they won't use "gray" art in the production. But the is definitely not enough bigcorp contracts for every artist, so smaller less known ones would compete basically with themselves. Imagine someone choosing between paying for original art X thousands of dollars, or generating 80% similar in quality art for "free". PS: after posting my comment above I've realised that by idea won't work. Art will become public sooner or later, just scan physical medium, or rip drm off the digital one and you will get the dataset for NN generator. Well, it will be a huge mess. We will see how it will turn out.
