- speedgoose 3y agoHi, we made a research prototype to gather human thoughts, opinions, and perhaps emotions about a fully automated AI art gallery. The computer generated images in a weird way by using random noise and mixing the prompt embeddings. It results in a lot of broken or corrupted images but also some unique images. The page contains some technical details and some opinions about generative AI art.
- badcppdev 3y agoFirst feedback for you: It's an AI picture gallery.
- Kuinox 3y agoAnimals were believed to be unable to produce art by some.
- artninja1988 3y agoArt lies in the eye of the beholder:)
- smusamashah 3y agoPlease consider adding keyboard shortcuts for thumbs up/down and pass. I do like looking at the generated art, but clicking like/dislike for each is bit tedious.
- speedgoose 3y agoIt’s an hidden feature but you should already be able to press Ctrl and 1,2,3.
- PoignardAzur 3y agoI gave it a few reviews. I'm not sure that exercise is going to be very productive, though. A lot of time my feedback was "looks cool, but the hands / faces" look weird; except when the art style was more abstract, or the subject was landscapes where the generation errors were less blatant. I don't think that feedback gives the AI something actionable. An AI trained on this feedback won't learn "I need to draw faces and hands better" (and anyway, we already knew that these were the areas to improve), it's going to learn "humans like it better when I do abstract styles and landscapes".
- speedgoose 3y agoOne goal of the text field is to attach text that is not necessarily an image description or an image prompt but be more about thoughts and opinions. You don’t have to give feedback to the AI, you can write whatever you feel. It’s a bit explorative research. Perhaps the final dataset will be useful but it’s not a given.
- accrual 3y agoI enjoyed this. I got to level 13 which was labeled as 'Advanced'. It was not just fun to review and provide feedback, but critiquing the art was also kind of relaxing. Felt like I could do it for hours. Some of the art was genuinely good.
- huimang 3y agoMy feedback: this is artificially generated art, and is meaningless. Why would I spend any amount of time or effort on this when there is art made with intent by humans?
- mensetmanusman 3y agoIn the near future you may have little to no idea whether art was made by ai or not unless you see it happen in person. Maybe contemplating this future is necessary?
- huimang 3y agoContemplating authenticity (and ways that we can reasonably prove it) is a different discussion than wholesale generating ai "art" that has zero intent or meaning.
- pixl97 3y agoDoes the massive amounts of corporate 'art' have any intent and meaning? Does art require intent and meaning?
- huimang 3y agoThat's mass-produced furniture. And yes, the original intent/artist meaning of an art piece are extremely important when looking on as a viewer, even if the viewer ends up giving it a different meaning.
- zonkerdonker 3y agoSunsets don't have intent or meaning. A whole lot of people still like to look at them, or even assign their own meaning to the them, or other random machinations of the universe.
- huimang 3y agoThere is meaning in that the artist chose a sunset as the subject of the piece, and they decide the composition and colouring, etc. It's all done with intent. And in pieces with more than 1 element, the various objects -do- have symbolism or were chosen with some theme in mind. We're talking about art, not phone wallpaper screens.
- VoodooJuJu 3y agoI clicked "Browse the gallery" and expected to be able to browse the gallery, but was instead confronted with a kind of mobile chat window - not what I expected and not what I came for. I immediately left the site.
- speedgoose 3y agoThe chat style introduction is an attempt to have most people read about the context. If you wait a few seconds you can close it and browse the gallery. I know it wasn’t going to be popular on HN, it’s a trade off.
- CrzyLngPwd 3y agoAll it needs is for someone write a script to randomly like/dislike the images.
- jareklupinski 3y agowhy not use the same skills to help the project instead of hinder it?
- CrzyLngPwd 3y agoShowing it is vulnerable to such a simple garbage-in attack is helping it. "AI art" is an oxymoron.
- kelseyfrog 3y agoWe're doing RLHF, aren't we? I'm about a 1:20 like to dislike ratio. Most of the dislikes are do to poor anatomy, ornamental text, overly smooth output(which weirdly people seem to like), unidentifiable objects. Does it get more interesting?
- FrostKiwi 3y ago> overly smooth output(which weirdly people seem to like) A pet peeve of mine as well. The over-processed look is something I can't get behind. Especially recently on TikTok, users apply a very strong smoothing filter to film footage sometimes, like an denoise turned up to 11.
- lofaszvanitt 3y agoCurrent state of generated images resemble something that has zero human like attributes. Therefore it is REPULSIVE in every way. It's like telling people to copulate with slimy, gargling octopuses instead of real human females. It won't work, because we are wired differently. I browse a lot of art and AI art too, and there are about 1-2 pictures among a 1000 that I say is good and has human made characteristics. Most of them are trash. So we are a long way away from rearranging talent space and giving the talent of pro artists in the hands of average joes (or rather to the elite).
