Entirely off topic, but I hope referring to AI art as "generative art" doesn't catch on
There's such a great and rich world of generative art (explorations of algorithmic aesthetics, not AI generated) which is probably already endangered by the influx of the recent AI boon - would be a shame for it to be further buried by naming overload
- ilkke 2y agoI'd prefer 'generative ai' as the common term. It rubs me the wrong way that human artists are 'content creators' while this is supposed to be 'art'
- ilkke 2y agoAnd in case it wasn't clear, I agree 100% with you. There's an amazing generative scene I've been following since the early naughties
- pentaphobe 2y agoEntirely clear, thanks - and yeah some truly astonishing stuff in generative art Content saturation is gonna be bad enough without us voluntarily diluting nomenclature
- pentaphobe 2y agoThat's a really interesting point, "content creators" always gave me a weird feeling but I never really thought on it, assuming it was just because it reeked of euphemism Odd that we've collectively ended up giving human creativity a term that sounds like a tool or automaton, while giving the automatons our term. Thanks for the chin scratcher!
